Anyone up for a Box Break Weekend ?

tennesseebanker · January 17, 2006 10:44AM

I was thinking about ordering some unopened stuff from BBC Exchange and doing a box break this weekend with scans of course. Anyone else game?

Nothing to extravagant, I was thinking of getting the 81 Topps BB vending Box for $35 bucks. You guys can pick whatever year or sport you want, should be a blast !!

That does sound like a good time - but I'm not aloud.

But thanx for the offer.

got an 85 Donruss box at the PO, don't know if I can wait until the weekend...

tennesseebanker · January 17, 2006 12:06PM

Sandman, Go ahead and start early if you want. Just be sure to let us in on the fun with some scans of what you get..........

tennesseebanker · January 17, 2006 12:07PM

C'mon stone you can get a 81' Fleer Vending Box for $15 bucks, Just skip lunch one day and you'll have it.

sandmanfromlv · January 17, 2006 12:12PM

will do tenn....hopefully tomorrow night I can have some scans up (I am assuming my box is at the PO...have to pick up 4 things..USPS sucks sometimes that they won't leave at the door like UPS/Fedex....what's the point!)

I agre SAndman, when you are really expecting something to arrive and you get home and have one of those cards in your mailbox it sucks, But not as bad as getting home and finding something has arrived and is sitting out in the rain or has been stolen right off your doorstep.

It's not the amount but the principle at this point.

I promised my wife and I'm sticking to it.

I checked and I do have an 83T vending box I haven't opened yet.

I'm in!!!

tennesseebanker · January 18, 2006 1:50AM

Alright ! Stoney ! I thought I was going to be the only one there for a minute. What time and day do you want to pull this off. Is Saturday good for you ? Get your scanner ready !

Stone193 · January 18, 2006 1:53AM

Sat would be OK

I would like it to be late since I'm going out for dinner if my wife gets over her cold.

It's our anniversary - 25 yrs!!!!

A quarter century - talk about a life sentence!!!

Come on Dan

My wife thinks this whole thing is out there someplace.

1. She thinks spending money you don't have is just plain dumb.

2. She thinks spending money on pieces of cardboard is just plain insanity!

3. She thinks people with OCD personalities should not be allowed to have a credit card.

4. I would like back what she has spent on shoes, hair, jewelry and makeup over the past 25 yrs!!!
We were at a shoe store in the mall and Prada's new line came out - the woman had a
SHOE-GASM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

See you guys this weekend - I have a nice "sealed" 83T vending box ready to go!

Anyone up for a Box Break Weekend ?
