Some thoughts:

- remove most of the catalogs and instructions, those are wieghty, and
generally of limited interest
- is that mania magazine a recent one? If so, I'd hold it for a box
which is about to go overseas
- split the box into two boxes, start the 2nd box halfway down the list
and cycle off the end of the list back to the start

That box looks real good, but it's going to be hard to increase the
value of the box, while still being able to get your shipping money's
worth out of it.
