[QUOTE="BooksB4Coins, post: 2878632, member: 36230"]There you go... now you've hit the nail on the head. :) All too often when someone with little experience buying from the general public does so, they not only expect/demand the cards to be stacked in their favor, but want to hide a few aces up their sleeves as well. Obviously the OP wants the box in the hopes that it contains the big dog, but expecting the seller to part with it for a token amount and/or using some agreement where the seller and only the seller shoulders the risk isn't reasonable, nor is it likely to work. The OP seems to think we can simply quote a value, but seemingly fails to realize that this really is akin to buying a lottery ticket. Unfortunately, unlike lottery, there is no set price of admission, and means he's going to have to nail this one down on his own by asking what the box and chance is worth to HIM.
