I will then list them in the PayPal box at the top right of the blog. The cost will include the flat rate PLUS the PayPal charge. &lt;br /&gt;Just buy a box and I&amp;#39;ll ship. It will be random. I have books, clay and literally tons of paraphernalia. ALL of the clay is old formula (one of the reasons I am moving on. The new formulas are just plain stupid.) ALL of the clay is workable, just use reason. I usually mix several brands, Promat, Sculpey, Premo, Fimo...to get the color and consistency I want. As Trina so aptly stated, &amp;quot;I am a clay harlot&amp;quot;! I will be including unopened bars and mixed bars. &lt;br /&gt;If you fear you will be disappointed (believe me, you won&amp;#39;t) just do not purchase!&lt;br /&gt;I will aim for an equal mix of clay plus other &amp;#39;stuff&amp;#39;.
