The only time I will allow you to go hog wild is if the pack is definitely sealed and has the correct date overprint and factory. Otherwise, bid as if it's a pretty but empty box.

One note on empty versus sealed packs. Old sealed packs are pretty stinky (the tobacco) and tend to leak the tobacco (Remember that GAI sealed tobacco pack?). So, even if someone buys a sealed pack to display next to their T206s, it is possible that she eventually will empty it herself anyway (often under threat from spouse). An empty pack can display as sealed and you have the fun of opening and closing the slide box.
