   Not printed, but handwritten.

   The problem isn't selling/giving them way so much as getting them to whatever   
   destination without them all breaking to pieces. ;)

   Yeah, I've got one, I meant to post a quick addendum to this about that.

   Yeah, just cart only. Really, I don't care about them being displayed for all   
   to see so much as I just want a better way of getting to them for myself.

   Not a bad option...I'm just not too hip to the idea of having all of the boxes   
   displayed. Like I've said, I kind of hover around the idea of selling off   
   almost all of my Genesis clamshells and just keeping the inserts as it is. ;)
