Oh, I don't think he is looking for money in return - he's looking for foreign help for another win in 2024.
You'd think he would sell agreements to support certain policies or actions in exchange for help. Not a classified document, like a peasant.
Middle class bureaucrats sell secrets for cheap because they have a cheap price (usually it’s about making themselves feel important and less bored) and so why would foreign governments overpay? Trump is f selling documents for $100K—if he’s selling them, it’s so the foreign entities don’t call the debt on his family or release whatever kompromat they have on him. He is super in debt to foreign banks and probably entities more shady than banks.
But I rather doubt he sold anything—he probably doesn’t even know what’s in the boxes but has someone pack up stuff he thought might be worth something. I’d love to hear from whatever lowly schmuck packed/loaded the boxes
One of the reports from when this came up before stated that he had packed the boxes himself.
I just have such a hard time imagining him reading even the spine of the binders that would fill 15 boxes.
Although it also sort of reminds me when you are too lazy to sort through papers to clean out your office when quitting a job and so just put everything into off-site boxes and tell someone to send it to offsite storage.

Who are the designated custodians? I remember Philbin and Kash Patel but are there others?

Please share a reputable source claiming this.
This guy has pretty good information - you can check out his feed since the warrant was executed.
What the FBI is not required to provide is the underlying affidavit from the FBI agent that is filed in conjunction with the request for a search warrant. This is what Judicial Watch wants. It is not usually released as it's considered protected by investigatory authority - i.e. - the authorities don't have to open up their books until they charge you.
