Hey guys new member huge moto fan. Trying to see if anyone can help me figure out what my old collectibles may be worth. I have 1 Smooth Industries Metal Jeremy McGrath Lunch Box. I also have 1 Thor Racing Metal Chad Reed Lunch Box, and I have 1 Fox Racing Metal Lunch Box with all the legends on in including a great picture of Stewart and Charmichael. They are all in perfect shape never used with thermoses that are still in the plastic wrap. I don't really plan on getting rid of them, but I don't know much about them. Just seeing if anyone knows much about them and if they are worth anything. I've had them for 10 years or so.

Thanks Nick

The RC/Bubba one is my favorite. That Evel Knievel one is real cool.

Someone stole my Bob Hannah one from the early 2000's. At least I have my RJ one!

I had this same lunch box as a kid, but I ruined it by filling it with sea shells after a trip to the beach. There must have been a live shell in there, because the smell was unbearable after a few days in the garage.

As far as what they are worth? Probably not much. Check Ebay and the completed auctions for prices.

Newmann, I like your collection! I looked on ebay and amazon and couldn't find any anywhere. That's why I came here. I plan on keeping them. I just thought I'd make sure I wasn't sitting on a small fortune haha. Maybe someday I will get lucky and get a few autographs on them.

Not worth much unfortunately.
The only ones that still bring any attention at all is the Hannah and Decoster lunchbox.
Chad Reed boxes are listed on eBay all the time and usually dont even sell. For any money.
(Sorry champ)

Sweet, I'll give $30 cash, an old almost empty bottle of Golden Spectro, and 3 worn out rear sprockets for that DeCoster lunch box.

Putting together an offer for the other lunch boxes.

I know better than to try and pry thr metal parts away from you.

Holla back.

Nice little set of collectables on those shelves.

Thanks for the information. I figured as much. They were still fun purchases in Millville! They still look great in my office.

I have the MC and CR boxes as well. They wont be worth much in our lifetime. Save them for your kids or grandchildren.
