Wheaties boxes.

I have a collection of Wheaties boxes and some other small memorabilia. My questions center around where is the best place to value these(eBay sales? ), and how should I treat these boxes. Most still have cereal in them, unopened stored in large plastic bags but not shrink wrap sealed. Should I flatten these? My father in law passed away and it was his collection so I dont have much experience with this. Any help appreciated.

    Use the Google and some keywords to find lots of info on Wheaties boxes as collectibles. Good luck. Peace Roy

    I assume unopened is key to value. I would not mess with them.

    Best to sell them locally if unflattened with contents inside. May be too costly to ship. Also risk damage.
