I purchased a 1985 topps rack box from e-bay last week and kind of regret it now. The packs were definitely sealed and the box was unsearched, which was great. The cards however were pretty off-centered, especially the star cards. I will post scans tomorrow of better cards.

2 Roger Clemons (I cant tell how nice they are, but I'd think they both are 8's)
2 Kirby Puckett (1 sucks but other is well-centered)
1 rack pack (unbusted) w/ George Brett and Roger Clemons on back (this is probably the best thing out of box, both cards really well centered from behind... hehe that sounds lewd huh?)

Nolan Ryanx2 (OCx2); Pete Rosex2 (OCx2)
Gnarly bummer was not pulling a McGwire RC, I didn't care if it was totally OC, I just wanted to pull one. 1152 cards and no Mark McGwire???

Anyway, continue on as you were and scans will be provided manana.

    I agree with Dan - there will always be next time.

    That's the fun of the rip!

    Till your next report. May all your packs be perfectly centered.

    Too bad on not pulling a McGwire but you're probably lucky you got an unsearched box in the first place as buying racks can be hit or miss. I busted two 6 box cases back in the early 90's and found the distribution to always yield a combined total of 3 Clemens and McGwires in each box so I'd say despite not getting a McGwire it was indeed unsearched (especially with the inclusion of the pack showing Clemens)! Do you mind saying who the seller was as I'm always looking for an honest seller when it comes to unopened material?
    Looking for Charlie Frye Jersey's, Auto's, and serial numbered RC's!
