I have a completely squashed box top (no bottom) and a box that the center of the cover is broken/split through because the last seller shipped it only wrapped in kraft paper So I'm assuming anything is better than what I have.I bid on the second one as a backup.Hey did you mention the dice/crayon and original papers with the Basic set in the title?I guess times are tight right now...

Replaced all the rubbers and any burned-out lamps. Replaced the lock, balls, and shooter springs. It works great. Just need to replace 2 diodes and all lights will be working. [ Image ]
