https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3345539.new#newYOU MIGHT NEED TO REFRESH MULTIPLE TIMESLot 1- TOYS
+ PennyWith the exception of the fiero toy (I just like those), all of these items were inherited to me by my grandfather. They are all vintage 1982-83 never been opened. (yeah, the D&D dragon box is beat, but the toy is pristine). When cleaning out his garage, I stumbled onto a pile of boxes filled with toys. Turns out he had a business importing LJN/other toy goods, & shipping them to a partner in NJ for retail. This is what stock was left. For 20 years, we didn't know that every christmas he took a bundle of these and donated them to toys for tots. These items come from a history of charitable nature. One step further, My grandfather was first generation American, a very DIY man. There wasnt a year he didnt keep a garden. Some years more lush than could be walked through. fruiting enough vegetables to give to the entire family and then the local neighbors. Tomatoes, Zuchinis, grapes, cucumbers, peapods, corn, eggplant you name it. To ensure proper conditions, he used his own horses' manure for fresh soil, and yes of course, even kept bees. All in all, I felt these items were representative of a man who put forth the efforts to properly sustain farming and ultimately generosity towards all things human or otherwise.
As far as value use, this lot, if I eBay'd piece by piece, would be ~ 400. the triex's have 3 settings and generally net about $20/ea, standard rough riders ive gotten from 15-25. they all run on a single AA battery and have headlights. I may post a picture later. fun little toys. The Japanese Converters...transformers (sepcifically the maladroid with gun) ive seen fetch up to 75+. The ET set, maybe 30ish. But mid you this, this stock never saw shelves. Much of it has no price label. even far less common. Dragonne is 50+ all day. and Mercion 15ish.
Lot 2-Paper Wallets
+ Penny Info- 3 different Polymerbit including 10 Gluden, 10 Garlic 100 Gluden, plus The Mag 7 (missing one note)info here-https://physicalbitcoins.co.uk/product/the-magnificent-7-thug-life-posse/
Lot 3
+ Penny - BYOB #127 - you know the original retail price + another 8 oz silver. 5 old Egyptian style silver replica oz's were included for a reason. Honey...its the only food that doesnt go bad. Mummies have been found with vats of dried honey, all it took was a little heat and that shit was good to eat again. Just fascinating to me. The cryptocracy DIY coin is of a limited 100 coin run.
Lot 4-Scano Honey
I requested this be in its own lot. This honey is for someone who truly LOVES honey. Sourced directly from the producers in Scano, Italy (a mountain village population 2k winter, 10k summer), My girlfriend's extended family makes their livelihood producing this succulent goo. It looks clearer than anything Ive ever called honey before, but taste sweet, clean, and delicious in a way I can't describe nor have I encountered elsewhere. The twice yearly allotment that makes its way to the states is fought over internally amongst the family. When I told them of this initiative, they were happy to donate for such a cause. They've been keeping bees for generations, speaking further to the fact that sustainability in bee farming needs to be maintained, and select groups are doing so. The best vote is to vote with your dollar (or bits) and buy from either local, or vendors who are known to practice proper methodologies. I hope this lot goes to an appreciator of flavors. Fantastic in your tea or used as a glaze. For tea, this shit is potent, itll last. If you want it on top of your melted brie. God help you, Ill get a case in order for you next time.

We both thought this would be fun. (GREAT IDEA TICKED)
