Need a bit of advice...Should I bust a pack with stars showing

1978 OPC pack, with Ryan front and Murray back. Pack is in overall good shape, no evidence of dropping, tight seal. I would think Murray would have a gum stain being on the back, and ryan corners maybe dull from being on the top. Also, this issue is notorious for rough cuts and o/c's. What should I do to maximize profit?

    Get it graded and then sell it. The Murray will have some sort of ST. Can't say much about the Ryan, I've seen 9's come off the top of cello many times. Send her in and let us know what you getimage

    I presume you mean a wax pack. I can almost guarantee Murray will be stained heavily with wax on the back, and the corners may well be blunted on both Ryan and Murray. Considering that a PSA 8 OPC Murray only goes for somewhere around $40 to $50 (I think I paid about $41 with shipping for mine), I'd keep the pack sealed.

    Yes, it is a wax pack, sorry. I am sure too the murray will be (st) and the Ryan will be blunted...not to mention oc or rough cut badly.
    Thanks
  • I had an '86 Topps FB Cello pack with Marino on the front. I decided to open it and got a Jerry Rice, Andre Reed, and Eric Dickerson!!!

    didn't the 86 football cellos have the 1000 yard rusher cards on the front?
  • ooppss I am sorry I mean Marino on the back....but I think the '86 cellos had normal player cards on the front too

    Maximize profit by selling the pack unopened, should be worth a few pennies because of the Ryan on the front especially. Maybe have GAI holder it to prove it's authenticity as well.
