Sell Your Lunchboxes & Novelty Phones

The metal lunchbox that announced your favorite show to the whole cafeteria, and the cheeseburger phone that took your first phone calls — both are collector favorites now. We pay cash for vintage lunchboxes and novelty phones across Texas, from single pieces to shelves of them.

Thermos included or not, cord tangled or not — send photos and we'll make one fair offer for the lot, alongside any other toys and collectibles sharing the attic with them.

Lunchboxes & Novelty Phones items we buy

Which lunchboxes and phones are worth real money?

  • Metal boxes with the matching thermos and minimal rust
  • Earlier and scarcer character boxes — condition drives price
  • Clean, working character phones in original boxes
  • Odd and short-run designs collectors rarely see

Not sure what you have? Send photos anyway — we'll tell you honestly what it's worth, free, even if you don't sell.

Common questions

Is a rusty lunchbox worth anything?

Often yes — scarcer designs sell even with wear, and the thermos alone can carry value. Send photos before you toss anything metal.

Does the phone need to work?

Working is better, but display appeal drives most of the value. A clean cheeseburger phone earns an offer either way.

I only have one or two pieces. Too small?

Send them anyway — singles are welcome, and they often ride along when we pick up a bigger collection nearby.
