I was really wondering how to pay for my next trip to Europe, and this sound
better than ebay! Now, how many can I take in my luggage. I can probably
fit about 15 or so, since these are in better shape, maybe I can get 300
marks. Let see, 300 * 15 = 4500 marks which is about (I think) $3000 USD?
That will just about cover it :).
