Over the years I have had various things come back to us. Recently I had a box we had sent items out come back. A source had gotten items from a former customer. The former customer had sold items to my source and put the items in the box. The source got a chuckle seeing the box has Stad on it. When I saw the source he gave the box and we had a good laugh.
The box is over 15 years old as it has our old Harrison Street address. We had been part of a business incubator for three years before we moved to our 12th Street address. It look like the box had been shipped from England. What did I do with the box I reused. I used it to mail an item out to collector.
Heck, I re-use boxes all the time, most times I can pry off the old addy labels and put my own on.
Oh they had a re-run of American Pickers the other day and they had a box of stuff that contained toy soldiers, they looked to be the Timmee modern ones at least the ones I could make out in the second they flashed across the screen were blue, yellow and pink, there were a ton of them in that box , but I didn’t get a real good look where I could identify others.

I reused boxes too. It was just amazing to see one from Stad from so long ago.
Pickers has had several episodes where plastic figures have popped up.
Well, I think I still have the box you went the Romans in, I don’t think I can wait 15 years, but maybe I’ll send it back with a surprise in it someday.
