Original 1990 Wade Boggs candy bars for sale - chocolate still intact!

Hi,

I have for sale about 10 Wade Boggs candy bars. These are called the .352 bars, and were produced in 1990. They come with either a red or a blue wrapper.

The story - back in 1990, I bought a bunch of these bars, and popped them in the back of my parents' extra ice chest in the basement so they wouldn't melt. My mother kept asking me about them for a while, and I kept asking her to leave them there. Then I forgot about them for a couple of decades, she kept storing them for me, until I just found them last month again. I haven't unwrapped any of them, but they seem to be intact and in good shape. I wouldn't advise eating them, but I can't imagine there are too many of these bars still kicking around!

Not sure what exactly they go for, but I saw some full bars on eBay with a $20 BIN, and just the wrappers for sale for $4. But those haven't sold yet, so I'm guessing it's somewhere less than that.

(Picture lifted from eBay, since I didn't take a scan of mine yet.)

How about $6 a bar, delivered? PM if you're interested.

Thanks for looking!

    Ah, chocolate!

    If memory serves me in 1990 retail was $1 a bar, sold maybe one or two and I ate the rest. image The chocolate wasn't bad and I have wrappers kicking around in my mess somewhere. image

    Are these edible? Can you guarantee freshness? image

    I would think eating some 20 year old chocolate would build some character, no??

    You know, if it doesn't kill you, it just makes you stronger, right?

    Or maybe it would kill you. What do I know....
