I picked up a cardboard barrel full of various balsa wood pieces. There's way more than I can use, and I'm thinking of bringing it to Historicon to put in the flea market on Saturday morning.
The pieces are all sizes and shapes, mostly in 3 foot lengths. I'm thinking .50 for really small strips, $1 USD for small strips, $2 USD for medium strips, and $3 USD for large. Is that too much to ask?
What would be the interest in this? Is it worth lugging to H'con?

I'd put a "take me home with you" price on it and sell the whole tube at once. How much money do you have in it?

I agree with Joe. Take what you want to keep out and hope to find someone who will take the balance. Selling by the piece is not likely to go well.
