I would respond to such an offer as I would be the type to keep such a 
treasure, except that I already have everything you listed except the 
Super Serial Card, and currently I have duplicates of much in my 
collection I need to thin out due to lack of space.  But I will say that 
I am glad to see you want this package to go to someone who will be 
truly interested in it.  It saddens me to know how many of these now 
populate landfills.
