    Matchbox cars and Silver Bracelet

    At a neighborhood series of garage sales, I found a box with the postmark of 1965. As I opened it to find 7 "Matchbox" cars; each one inside its original box, the lady said "I'll take $10. Those were some of my own toys"

    They appear to be in mint condition; any idea of their value?

    At an earlier garage sale where I drove up about 15 minutes early, the lady said, "We won't be open until 8:00!!!", I left and came back about 8:15.

    Apparently, no one had shown up, so she wasn't as grouchy by then... I bought this .925 bracelet for $2.00 and thought I was going to get light headed as I walked away... When I got home, I put it on the scales....

    Very nice score on those Matchbox cars. This link should help you a little.

    All prices are in British Pounds, but easy to convert to US $$ on-line. Barnes & Noble or Borders carry a few different price books for these. SCORE!!
