I've seen collections that have the entire box flattened. Never seen a box that still had the cereal.

One of my favorite Rosen stories is the time he was advertizing buying 1930s Wheaties cards. He was at a show in SF and I offered him a complete run of Wheaties, including the 1939 100th anniversary set, all on boxes that were only missing their end flaps. He turned them down stating he already had all the Wheaties cards that he needed, LMFAO! Like he was ever buying them at that prices advertized to begin with. Whe he later was offering Wheaties cards for sale/auction, there wasn't a single complete box in the lot. Hmmmm, me thinks he was setting the market price with buy ad after buying real cheap before placing the ad

That was the begining of "I'm not your wholesaler, you are just another customer to me" comment I made to Rosen later in the show when he wanted me to give him a big break on a some cards he wanted from my table.
