Those are reproduction carts, not original prototypes. Can you take a picture of the carts? Sounds like some of the 5200 reproduction carts we sold in our store for a while.

They really aren't worth any more than what we sold them for, which was $25 each. Original prototypes can be quite valuable because of their unique nature, but reproduction carts are not as collectible and can be produced indefinitely.

Well, you know, if says "reproduction" on the label, it probably says that for a good reason.
