That box is slightly worse than my F AT box which I very happy to have. I would think that it is worth $10+ by itself, easily.

We got a box?



Is there someplace to get boxes with styrofoam inserts that correctly fit M's and F's (apart from the 122s) ?  Sitting on a shelf I suppose it doesn't matter too much whether they're in bubble wrap or styrofoam, but if the price were right might put a couple in decent boxes...

1 avid collector has had some awesome styrofoam inserts and boxes fabricated for the bolt-modded Model Ms he is selling.
