    Stop it!! All I have around here are some 89 Fleer boxes. Shoot, they're so great image, I was letting my wife hand out wax packs to her kids for doing good school work.

    Back in 1984 I ripped over 3 cases of Topps, though. Founds tons of Mattinglys. Sold most at the Nationals in Arlington in 86 or 87...can't remember the exact year. The full boxes I kept were an easy sell too.

    For those of you who missed my 75 mini rip about 2 months ago, here are the highlights.

    I actually got it from Dave and Adams Card World, and it was a GAI 7.

    Sorry to steal your thunder Zef, but, a Canon MP830. I saw his scans on here the one day and was amazed. I got one myself!

    Thanks,

    Its a Canon MP830. Its a multifunction deal.

    morrellman and gosteelers bought a Canon because of my suggestion and scans, but they both bought the MP500 and I was told, by them, that their scans were both far inferior to the ones I posted. So they both went back to get the MP830 and have had the same results I have had.

    << <i>Hey Zef did you try calling steve today ? >>

    No. I tried e-mailing him last night. I was tied up with work all day today and didn't get in till 9:00.

    Hopefully he'll get back to me.

    edited to add: I'll try to call him tomorrow. I still have to deposit all the MO's and I am still missing one. I know that the bank won't let me have availability to the funds from the MO's for a few days and therefore I can't pay Steve until they all clear. Hopefully he and I hook up in the next day or so and figure out a time to meet(And I'll let 80sjunkie know as he is planning to come in for the break).

    Zef:

    Hopefully I will pull something you want so we can work a deal for that Powell. Nice looking card.

    One of the few Powell topps cards I don't have.

    I had a dream last night that my six-pack arrived in the mail. I had them all laid out neatly on the dining room table ready to open. Alas, that's where the dream ended. That's just sad on so many levels.

    Hey Zef,

    Just curious on this - (I promise we will not hold you to it), but what is your best estimate on the shipping date?

    Again, thanks for all the work you've put into it.

    Right now I am waiting a response from Steve Hart about when we could do the case break. I have no idea what his schedule is. I am hoping sometime next week and I would assume shipping would be same day if not next day from the break.

    Good news, I have all the money!!!!

    Now I just have to wait for all the MO's to clear my bank, which should be soon, as well as the final PP transfer. Then I just need to coordinate with Steve when his schedule permits this break.

    I'll keep you posted with any and all updates.

    I messed up, I still have one payment withstanding. and it is for a full box. Somehow I listed a $1485 on the deposit slip twice, so the numbers looked like we were there.

    My bad. I'm still waiting for mnolan's MO and I e-mailed him about an hour ago to find out where it is.

    Sorry for being such a tease.

    I just double checked and I have no record of the last person asking for my address to send a MO.

    I just e-mailed him askng what is up and I think I am going to send another e-mail telling him if I don't hear by tomorrow morning, I am going to give away the 36 packs to the next people who want them.
