Gloat in the form of a question? Mahony ,walnut and ebony

I came across some lumber at a garage sale I stumbled into.

I bought several lengths of mahogany. 5” -8” x 62” x 4/4
The grain looks wonderful to me, but I have never even looked at mahogany before.
I also got 4 shorts of 15”x24”x4/4. About 19 bft mahogany total.

A large piece of 8/4 walnut that looked like rough sawn mahog before planing made the deal worth my $80

Was this worthwhile? He had much more. I have no idea what to do with the mahogany. Make an offer on the rest?
