    How much for the tea bags? Do they still have the strings (and tag) intact?

    Also, you don't mention if they are used or not. Of course, if they're used, I'm going to expect a hefty discount.

    Finally, I don't need that many post it notes. Can I just buy seven. Oh, and are they left handed (because I am).

    Oh, and on the 2006 stickers...they probably aren't worth that much anymore, but I was thinking that if my wife has another baby, we could name it "900" and then just flip the sticker upside down, cut the end off, and have labels for everything the kid will ever own in his life! Man...I hate to pass up a deal, and now you've really got me thinking...

    Are the folders still manilla? Or have they faded in color, cuz that would be a deal-breaker for me!

    I would say that they are more of a pale ecru or straw at 12.87% humidity color.

    The tea bags are unused!!

    Sorry, the post-it notes are all right handed. If it is any help, these are the upside down sideways version. They may be ambidextrous?

    Thanks for all of the pms folks!

    Just a heads up! I am not going to just give this stuff away!

    For example, the staples are STANLEY BOSTITCH staples, not some generic fly by night zinc junkoids!

    Are the staples strong enough for some of my patients mouths?

    I am not sure actually.

    I'll tell you what, I have too many loud mouth, jaw flappers that come into the office. I'll whack a few of these windbags right in the kisser and see if the staples hold.

    I'll get back to you tonight. Stay tuned!

    Those aren't real Post it notes! They look like cheap Chinese imitations.

    Anything for our Dot Matrix printer we still use?

    How about something for the ole DOS computer we still use that when turned on has the copyright page (1989) on it?
