Title: Wacky Contest for a Mini's Display Box
Post by: Bigmuc13 on August 02, 2020, 05:52:42 PM
These series 1 mini's are pretty cool, but I think the display box is even cooler.  At least I think so.  I think it is an awesome addition to my collection of OS boxes.  Anyway, I have read where some of you have been having a hard time getting the box.  Since I am lucky enough to have obtained two boxes, I felt like the right thing to do is to give one away.  I was trying to think what was a fair way to pass it along to someone from the Forum.  What I decided to to was to just have anyone interested in it just reply to all saying "I want the box."  I will let people reply for the next 48 hours.  At 9:00 PM EST on Tuesday night, August 4th,  I will tally up all of the people who responded and draw a winner from a hat.  I will post the winner and then PM them so they can send me their address.  I will mail it out the next day.  You don't even have to pay for postage.  I will cover that as well.  The only thing I ask is that please don't enter if you already have one.  These are fairly hard to come by for a lot of people and I want to get one out to someone who does not have one and would really appreciate it.  The clock starts now!!! (I know it is 8:52 but close enough)  Take care, Bill (Bigmuc13)

This is super cool of you and I totally agree, I love the box and that is the main reason I bought the box and its 22 packs.

"I want the Box"...

Not sure if this is how you want us to respond, but I have been searching every Walmart & Target in northwest Florida and lower Alabama and have had zero luck in finding one :'(  Being an avid Box Collector, I am really wanting to add one of these to my collection.  Thanks for making this available to one lucky collector!

Thanks Ernie, and yeah I like the mini's but love the box.  It definitely has an OS vibe to it.

I really would like the box.  Tried to get one at a Target in Illinois, but the cashier stopped me at the self checkout.  Thank you for your generosity!

I'm very thankful to Bill for being generous in offering us a chance to win this cool box.
I have most of the original display boxes along with the ANS boxes, so this minis box will
be cherished by me. Thanks again to Bill.

What boxes are you missing?

Post by: Liptorn on August 05, 2020, 03:15:00 PM
I need 2nd, 3rd, and 11th.
Would also like any original OPC and OPC 79/80 but not
too important.

I love the boxes as well.  I have some full but most are partially full.  I have come to realize that I will probably never get a series 1 box.  Even if one was available, I am sure it would be more than I was willing to part with.  I do have a partially full series 11 box.  Those are hard to come by.  I paid a lot for it, but the opportunity was there so I took it.  I am not sure why the 11th series box and unopened packs are so rare.  Ten is very available and so is 12.  13 is sorta tough and 14's are common.  Very strange.

Mine are just empty display boxes except a full 14th.
I got the minis display box in the mail Friday.
Thanks again, Bill !
