Looks like 92 Donruss, can't tell which series.

With that said it looks like there is a few things in there I'd be interested in. Curious what the full inventory is.

Nice haul! You should check and see if those sets need packaging images- it looks like those are pretty good shape, would be good to pull scans off of, and get you some points.

VERY slow trading due to health problems. Not transferrable so safe to trade with, just moving is painful and can't always access the cards.

That is a nice haul! I'd have paid $100 for it without a second thought. Have fun with that. Have you peeked into any of the white cardboxes yet?

Here's a tip for selling: If the buyer is on the East Coast, you can save some money shipping by using USPS Priority Mail Regional Rate boxes. They start at $6.60 and hold as much as a Medium PM box that costs twice as much. I can ship one to Orlando for $9 and that beats $13.85 for a Medium PM box. The catch is a weight limit and you can only print labels from USPS.com. Also, you have to order the boxes (for free) from USPS.com and they'll mail them to you. I can't remember if the minimum is 5 or 10 per pack.

I'd have done that first myself. Check my previous reply again. I was editing it while you were replying.

There are 2 types: A (weight limit 15 lbs.) and B (limit of 20 lbs.) with B being the bigger sized box. I have a stack of each type.
