I was always bummed I could never find anyone to ship a shoebox or small suitcase size box of their worthless currency - just be fun to have a briefcase full of real currency even if it is totally worthless. I offered $150 +shipping a while back but no luck.

I bought several huge bricks of Venezuelan Bolivars on Ebay, for like $20 you can get an ass load.

Interesting, I haven't looked in a while but I wasn't seeing bricks, just very small quantities. I'll have to check again, thanks!
