Well, in in the spirit of our good friend The Golden Ax (whom I have already spoken with about this), I have put together some mystery boxes for sale. These boxes are put together from: Yard sale leftovers, doubles, extras, things for systems I no longer have/use, odd items, things that didn't sell here or on ebay, etc. I cleaned up my garage (yet again!) and I still have a buncha junk lying around that I need to move outta my place and into yours. Some of these items are a bit on the crap side and some are not. Most fall in between - just regular items that I don't need/want anymore but aren't completely worthless.

The boxes will be shipped out parcel post with delivery confirmation. Most of these boxes are too big for priority flat rate except one box which will be shipped medium flat rate (the parcel price would be more).

Each box number has a brief description of the contents and the packaged weight so you can figure out the total cost. PM me to reserve your box and you can either send me a paypal payment or ask for a total and I'll send you the total due (actual shipping charge + .85 confirmation only). SHIPPING FROM 93561 Tehachapi, Ca.

Thanks!

Hi, I added a bit more detail to the 'toys & games' - they are not video game related. They are mostly things like board games, cards, action figures, cars, some kids toys (older stuff like Fisher Price) - that kind of stuff. I think one box has an older military airplane model in it that's unused and complete. Anyway, I hope that clears things up and helps out. Thanks for the interest!

I'm certainly not trying to scare you off it, just letting jtoubeaux know there is other interest... juuuust in case. :)

I collect both, though depending on what's in the box I may be more interested in the Atari software.  I don't have a lot of Atari stuff outside of cartridges.

The sell price is right, but the shipping cost wouldn't be...

Yeah, that stuff gets heavy - but maybe someone will want a box of non VG related goodies anyway. I can maybe break them up into four smaller boxes to cut down on shipping and only ask like $2 or $3 per box - but there are some board games there that I can't help on the size. Well anyway, maybe I'll think of something if no one wants the last two boxes soon.

I don't want to ask :D

For shits and giggles, what is shipping on each of those to 46205? (I would look it up myself, but I don't have access to USPS from here)

$17 and $21. Yeah, I know it's a lot. :( Sorry.
I'm going try to separate the items into 4 smaller boxes and see what i can come up with.
