7. What's being sold?

Is that box valuable like one of those old Partridge Family or Lancelot Link lunch boxes?

I don't know squat about e-bay. I thought you couldn't bid unless you were a registered buyer.

11. That's an early "Happy Meal" container.

When McDonald's first introduced the "Happy Meal" concept,
they were sold in special containers. I'm guessing that must
be a rare one.

It's "valuable" to wealthy folks who collect 1970s kitsch, such as
Partridge Family lunch boxes, just like you say.
