I'm looking for a very nice 1987 box bottom Marino and would keep one or two boxes. If I can pick up a case for a decent price, is anyone else interested in purchasing boxes?

Regards,

Greg M.

    Somewhere between $30 and $40. The Marino and Montana are on the same box bottom. I plan on keeping the nicest Marino box bottoms. I'll try and cut out a nice Montana or two for you....if you'd like.

    You can have all the box bottoms you want. I'll take the box with the Gem Mint Flutie, Cunningham, Marino, Elway, Montana, and Payton. And then I'll trade them all for a PSA 8 Herschel Walker.

    Sorry - I'm going to open the whole case, pull all the Marino cards, reseal the packs and then ship them out...

    That's OK greg. I'll just send the resealed packs to GAI to get graded.

    the difference here is we all know and can personally vouch for greg, who is a fine collector, despite his understandable lifelong hatred of the greatest qb in history. image




    ok i'm really leaving now

    Allright guys - I bought a wax case of 1987 Topps fb for $691 plus around $55 for shipping - call it $750 total. Anyone who is interested can have a box for my cost of $37.50. I'm buying the case to get between 2 and 3 boxes with the Marino on the bottom. Anyone who is interested can e-mail me at montooth13@yahoo.com or PM me.

    Regards,

    Got the boxes and riped them right away. I got 8 or so potential 10's, a handful of CUnningham's, Flutie's and Rice's. I even had packs with two Flutie's and two Rice's which was pretty cool. I'll try and post scans soon, along with a wantlist for my 2 sets if you guys wanna trade.

    These are the ones I'm sending off to get graded. If it comes back a 10 I'll trade you for something of equal value if you want. How'd you do with your box bottoms?

    i busted one row of packs last night. i'll try to get some scans. i have a few potential 10s.

    lee, the mccyer looks to have a bad top edge...could just be in the scan itself.


    Thanks,

    Looks like a little hair got in the card saver of the McKyer. The Roby is pretty badly centered- not sure how I missed that, but when you're inspecting 1000 cards your eyes tend to go a little oobatz.

    Anybody else bust their boxes? I'm looking for a bunch of cards to complete two sets.

    Cuda,

    The centering on your cards is better than most of mine. Mine were nice edge and corner wise but the centering tended to stray 75/25 or worse top to bottom. I did pull quite a few nice cards - but you're look wonderful. The Payton is especially nice. As I said before, please let me know if you pull a nice Zimmerman, Offerdahl or or other Dolphins blazers (I already have all 3 Marino cards in PSA 10).

    Regards,

    Greg M.

    If any of you guys pulled nice, centered (potential 9/10) candidates of any of these, I'd be interested in them.

    I am interested in any potential PSA 9 or 10s of Phil Simms if there are any out there.
