Excellence Was Expected
 
I hate to even do this, I should just get over my pack rat tendencies, then I wouldn't see value in what I am offering here-

My copy of Excellence was Expected came in a very sturdy box with styrofoam inserts to help ward off Postal damage.

I saved the box because the collector mentality says that should I ever wish to sell it, it might increase the value of the book to have this.

Alas, I recently moved from a 2300 SQft house to one with about 1200SQft, and I have got to get rid of stuff that I have no room to store.

This is one of those items. The Box, not the book

It is from the 3 volume set.

Free to a good home, should anyone want it. (This feels like the dumbest thing I've ever done but I just cant help it.)

All who wish to flame me for being such a packrat please do. I need professional helpSmileWavy

So your giving away a box? A cardboard box with foam inserts? OK...hmm...you know they do have meds for this sort of thing.

I have a Cheerios box I'm hoping will be collectible some day.

I ate the cereal but saved the box with the Hot Wheels car intact under its plastic window.

I could probably get my money out of it with a nice profit now, but am hoping for more in the future.

I save all my firearm boxes too, so you won't find me "laughing" at anyone saving boxes!
