USPS Priority Mail Mystery Boxes For Sale! PRICE REDUCED!

So... my computer/card room has been getting hard to navigate through, thus, I spent last weekend and the first part of today going through everything, organizing, etc. Call it the proverbial cleaning out the closet venture. Picture stacks of cards, supplies, boxes, sets, you name it... all over the place. I came to the realization that I have too much stuff and need to get more focused on my collecting efforts!
I'd also like to raise a little funds for some upcoming card shows I'll be attending... so I made the decision to just go through everything and decide what I really wanted to keep and what I could stand to let go!
I've put together 4 different USPS Large Flat-Rate Priority Mail boxes... I have the following box types:
1) Baseball - Predominately modern cards, among other things
2) Baseball - Vintage themed, but still mostly modern cards
3) Football - Predominately modern cards, among other things
4) Basketball & Everthing Else - Mainly basketball... with some hockey & miscellaneous dabbled in
Since they are mystery boxes... I don't want to give too much away... but I can give out a few facts...
A) One of the boxes contains a PSA GEM MINT 10 autographed card of a Hall of Famer
One of the boxes contains a Hall of Famer signed 8x10
C) One of the boxes contains a very cool Stadium Giveaway item of a Hall of Famer (w/ game ticket)
D) One of the boxes contains a 600 count boxes of almost entirely insert cards, many of which are complete sets
E) Two of the boxes contain something signed by an athlete that achieved a pretty significant milestone in the past year
F) Every box contains something graded by PSA
G) Every box contains multiple autographs... be it on cards, photos, memorabilia... and some actually contain the combination of all three types
One last note, before dropping the final details, these are COLLECTOR LOTS! Could you buy one, break up the contents, and sell the contents off to make a profit... sure, I suppose that's possible... but that's not a guarantee I'd make! I'm I giving you thousands of dollars of value for pennies on the dollar, probably not, but I think it's a very fair deal and I am setting the price at a point I believe is more than fair and considerably under the total value of the contents! I cannot stress enough, these are COLLECTOR LOTS... a great box of cards for the person that loves having stuff, to give to your child, grandchild, niece/nephew as a great start to their collection, for the person that just loves sports & sportscards, etc.
I regularly throw away cards as they build up or no longer serve a purpose to me. These are not cards that fit that personal criteria of mine. The contents in these boxes are cards I kept around for one reason or another. They might be partial sets I just never finish... they might even be complete set(s)... they may be cards I pulled to have graded at some point and never did... they may also be rookies, autos & game used/memorablia cards I just stashed away (I never throw those away)... they may be cards I already have multiple graded copies of... they may be autographed photos and/or memorabilia I have multiples of and/or never display. One mans trash is another mans treasure, and vice versa. The only thing I can say for certain is that the contents of these boxes is stuff that I personally DID NOT consider trash! I also consider myself a person of high integrity... in putting these together & knowing how much I was going to ask for them... I absolutely did might best to ensure that you are getting your money's worth! I regularly made trips back to my personal stash of stuff to throw extra in just to make sure it was value laden!
So, here's the deal... I'm looking for $125.00 per box, shipped, paid via Paypal. Limit of one box per person.
I know I put enough in each box... enough value to far exceed my asking price... however, if you receive the box and can honestly say you don't believe you got your money's worth... send it back & I'll refund your money... no questions asked!

<< <i>I've got an idea...I will offer you a mystery payment! >>
Glad to see the board comments continue to live down to their well earned reputation.
<< <i>I tried to do something similar with even smaller lots and it did not work out too well. Good luck. >>
I honestly didn't think "luck" would be required, but I guess I was mistaken!
I know what I put in these, so I know it's a darn good deal. Here, people drop $100+ on modern group rips all the time (myself included)... I really thought these would be gone fast. That's My Bad! I'm certainly not unpacking the boxes though to put the contents back in my now-more-organized collection... so I guess I'll just keep this thread alive until they're gone!.
<< <i>have you sold any yet? >>
Nope!
all 4 boxes still remaining...
price reduced to $85 a box, shipped...
I want these out of my house ASAP!

<< <i>Alright I'm intrigued enough to offer $40 on the football "mystery." Otherwise you need to spell out what I'm getting. And if it's full of base cards I'm gonna be pretty ticked off. >>
$85 is the absolute lowest I'll go on these
From memory...
a) autographed mini helmet of a pretty darn good football player
b) autographed 8x10 of a Hall of Famer
c) a couple of near complete sets
d) cards from recent BBCE group rips
e) the extras from a 2 box break I did from BBCE to build a set of an early 80's Topps issue
f) 3-4 graded cards (I think they were all rookies, but not 100% sure)
g) a few different, complete, insert sets
h) a decent number of other insert/parallel cards, including autos (and I think some GU/Memorabilia cards)
i) the rest is mostly base cards... but they are generally all rookies or stars (mostly stuff I set aside to consider for grading, but never did)
