Maybe the box helped push the price up? I've only ever seen them in the blister pack.

The box was the first version , blister pack followed a few years later . I think the box is actually more common now as the plastic top to the blister pack self destructs with age and uv light .

My blister pack is stored in a box in a dark place. I have not seen it in ten years and I hope it is still there....

If only I could remember where I put the box. :lol:

Mine has been in a display case for at least fifteen years and still looks OK, but it never gets direct sunlight.

I just had a look at my Para-Moke and it is not looking good. The plastic blister is yellow and cracked. :cry:

Hmmm, I wonder if the blister could be remade? Anyone into vacuum forming?
