Shipping is $70k, which sadly just tips it over me. Would have been keen otherwise.

A few years ago, Unique posted a link to a similar mass valve auction; something like 100 boxes, all photographed. I got obsessive and spent most of a work night pouring over the photos looking for useful valves. :roll: :oops:
