 Julius, I am also interested in the box, it is lovely. You can reach me at [email protected] anytime, if you could send a few more pictures, possibly a more accurate weight, and a ballpark of what you're wanting for the box, we can go from there.

I have a confirmed paypal account with funds in it if we do come together on a price.

 

Regards

-Nick
