I'd want some rough idea of what was there and some sort of rough idea
of the per piece cost. I don't want 5000 dollars worth of belville
suitcases and starfish at a dollar a piece! But I just freed up a chunk
of capital so...

Yes, let's talk offline, I followed up via email and blind copied some

ship the whole lot ONCE to a country with low shipping costs and do the
sorting/selling/reshipping thing from there.

No, a consortium would be welcome, I certainly don't want to shut anyone
else out! The more backers the better, within reason.
