He's either going to resell boxes or submit for MOSH? I hope he saves some for us ... although he hasn't sold any to us for some time - as MOSH's personal dealer.
There is other 1985 FB thread?!? I am out of touch. Mostly I just visit this board now, I'll take a look for the other.
Well, I had already busted about 2 rak boxes before picking those up and I have about 40 cards that should be either high end PSA 9 or PSA 10. Anyone that's picked up a lot of my PSA 8s, the ones I've graded myself, can tell you I only send really solid examples.
So I don't know, if I get good results the first time, Ill be encouraged to break and send more. The main reason I haven't sold to you lately sixdart, is because I haven't graded any in probably 6 months or more. But if I do send a massive order there will plenty for all.
I had a bad order right after the National last year then I had a small lot not long ago that I did a little better on but it was only like 12 cards.
Haven't really found a lot to upgrade MOSH with on 85, but I see you've been doing your work. Submitting, upgrading etc. It isn't easy. 4 Sharp used to do more football but not for a while. My bill with them has gone down over time.
i'm hoping for some good pulls. i picked up one of the boxes from talyho. about the same price that i got from BBCE. i hoping for a much better box. will let you all know how it goes. i'll post the solid ones.
Thanks,
David (LD_Ferg)

i busted half the rack box last night. i think they were very nice. looks like some sweet 9s and i'll hope for 10s. pulled a couple of lowery's. one looks to be a 7 and the other pushing a 9.
Thanks,
David (LD_Ferg)

marcus, i should have you covered on the lowery and bengals upgrade....however, i opened the rack box (no bakers...or moons). i had 1 marino and several record breakers but not very may LDR cards. overall the box was nice (by far better than racks i've ever purchased before). should yield a few 10s (fingers crossed) and many 9s. i've got close to 500 85t to submit from recent wax and rack busts. i'm sure i missed some of those hidden surface flaws so i'll be going back thru some of them to pull them out.
i did have a nice payton, marino and several montana's and elway's from this rack box. the elways were pathetic (highest one probably an 8 if i'm lucky). i'll still get them slabbed.
even though i did not yield a complete set from this box, the cards themselves were nice and flat. i will be replacing some cards in my raw set with ones from this box and hopefully adding more to a psa 8 set. i need to register it and see if i can complete it.
didn't you say you picked up the last rack box from D and A?
jeremy, have you received your purchases yet? if you're interested in selling one of the 85t rack boxes or 79t drop me a PM or email me at LDFerguson@bwsc.net.

I had purchased the last '85 rack pack box form talyho-enterprise ... 1985 Topps Football Rack Pack Box Unsearched From Case. He had a buy-it-now option on this one. If these boxes were stored as long as he states, then the cards should be decent - like your box.
I was surprised on the buy-it-now price considering the per box breakdown from the case sales. Unless he based the price on ldferg's final auction value.
yes i have received the cases - haven't decided yet on what they are really worth to me. I know I am going to break at least one more box, will PM soon - thanks ldferg
marcus, if that rack box is from the same lot as the one i won you will be satisfied with the quality. i'm laying out my 85s tonite to see what is actually going to be submitted. i tend to submit the paytons, elways, etc...even if the condition is not mint. i just like having them in slabs. i would have liked to have had another one at that price if i knew the quality was the same.
fyi, most of the insert cards were very o/c. don't know if these are sought after in graded form or not.
Thanks,

It's nice to have PSA recognize my set - it justifies all the time, effort and money that's been invested. My original goal was a 9.00 GPA 100% set, so I've exceeded my expectations. Because so many forum members have contributed to my set, I feel they to can share in its success - especially Mike King (metalmike20).
marcus, congratulations! you seem to be top notch all the way around. i appreciate the feedback and knowledge i've gained from you regarding this set.
spam line: i will begin listing 150+ different 85t football psa 9s and some 10s in a few minutes. hopefully everyone that has emailed or pm'd me the last couple of weeks regarding these cards will take something home. thanks to all that have asked.

Anyone notice the 1985 Topps Football Vending Boxes for sale on eBay? Could you end up with any good ones there? I've had a lot of corner issues in the past with vending. What's everyone's experience with these?

All I can tell you is I had a disaster with 3 1986 football vending boxes last year. Vending is always tough to produce gradeable cards, and out of three boxes I got zero 10's, a few 9's, and mostly 8's. Not to mention 1986's are easier to grade than 1985's are.
Vending can be very hit and miss, I've opened some vending and I didn't even get one card worth even sending in. Personally for grading I prefer cello or rack, vending is fine if you like making sets.
Looks like LDFerg did quite well on the '85s today! MOSH has been a No Show on the PSA 9s for a while now, but was active towards the end. Congratualtions to all that won.

Your 1st purchase was posted on the other '85 Topps FB thread (Sports Cards and Memorabilia).
Nice pick ups - what are your plans anyway?
You picked up a nice box as well - good price.
