not much luck. packs were wrinkled a bit so i 'm glad i didnt pull any of the big ones here. some bent corners, dings. centering looks pretty tough overall for this issue. 2 eddie johnstones in 1 pack. d potvin next to b trottier. another dave lewis card. lanny, dino, verbeek, dugay as a red wing!, perreault, rod langway, pat lafontaine, mark howe and bernie. anyone working on this set?

Lot of OC's and some top left corner dings in both packs.
Haven't been able to get to the computer until now (been under the weather), but I think that I shot and scored with this one!
What do you all think? Can it make a 10?

Bryan Trottier All Star Pat Riggin All Star Reed Larson Mark Osborne Reijo Ruotsalainen John Tonelli Brian Bellows Brian Bellows x2 Tony Tanti Pete Peeters (nasty bent corner) Ivan Boldirev Tony Tanti x2 Don Lever Brad Park
....overall, pretty darn good centering on these. I was expecting worse. Plus, ain't too shabby gettin' at least a 9er on that Gretzky!

I am absolutely LOVING this hockey bust so far --- my '87's were great --- pulled a stellar Adam Oates RC. It's a bit OC, a surefire 9 or 10 otherwise. I grew up in Minneapolis in the '80s and Dino Ciccarelli was my fav player as a kid until Brett Hull emerged (U of Minn Duluth alum).
Even with the centering, I may still submit the Oates using the $5 special this month.

Hello! This is only my second post! I wish I had been around when this was started as I probably would have participated! Just wanted to let you guys know that I'm working on the 1982 and 1983 O-Pee-Chee sets, so if you don't need your commons from these sets, let me know! I don't need them to be in mint condition, just as long as they're not wax- or gum-stained. Thanks a lot! Can't wait to see what you will pull from the 1982 OPC packs!

Same problem as many of you --- not a lot of stars to be had.
The Dionne is in absolutely PERFECT shape. It has a bit of a rough cut, but is an absolutely stellar speciman of a card.
Here's the rest: Marcel Dionne Record Breaker Tim Watters, Jets Mike Liut, Blues Washington Leaders, Mike Gartner Tony McKegney, Nords Joel Quinneville, Whalers Darryl Sittler, Flyers Steve Payne, Stars Bob Bourne, Isles Ron Low, Devils Reijo Ruotsalainen, Rangers Gaston Gingras, Leafs Doug Wilson, Hawks Blaine Stoughton, Whalers Rob McClanahan, Rangers Tim Higgins, Hawks Don Edwards, Flames Willie Huber, Rangers

Tom, that Dionne is gorgeous. 10's are definitely possible with a rough cut - the one and only PSA 10 OPC Gretzky RC proves that - so they must have something else very slightly off on that card. Seeing that Dionne almost makes me want to do the '83 set... almost.
I'm tempted to crack it out and resubmit. What do I have to lose, really .... no chance it ever comes back an 8.
Pop report shows six 9's (one being mine) and one 10.
Only thing I can think of is the rough cut on the left edge is only about 80% of the edge. The top portion and bottom portion of the edge is not rough. There also appears to be the slightest of tilt. We're talking about maybe 5 degrees or less (top right corner of picture compared to bottom right corner of picture). The back is probably 60/40 l/r.
Still --- it's a breathtaking card. These OPC cards are simply beautiful when done right like this Dionne.

edit: Nice surfaces, too bad OPC didn't do a nicer job with their "paper cutter"? Would have been some really nice cards here. But I guess that is the same olde story for many (70s and early 80s) OPC years?

Same problem as many of you --- not a lot of stars to be had.
The Dionne is in absolutely PERFECT shape. It has a bit of a rough cut, but is an absolutely stellar speciman of a card.

Here is the Dionne NOW:
Do OPC rough cuts prevent PSA 10's?
This card is a 10 without that rough cut. I'm telling you, it is flawless.
EDITED TO ADD:
I'm not particularly attached to it if someone needs it for a set.

Pop report shows six 9's (one being mine) and one 10.
Only thing I can think of is the rough cut on the left edge is only about 80% of the edge. The top portion and bottom portion of the edge is not rough. There also appears to be the slightest of tilt. We're talking about maybe 5 degrees or less (top right corner of picture compared to bottom right corner of picture). The back is probably 60/40 l/r.
Still --- it's a breathtaking card. These OPC cards are simply beautiful when done right like this Dionne.

I really like these.... probably my second favorite behind the '85 Topps.
I simply LOVE the old Sabres uni's ... I cannot understand why they chose the "Buff-a-slug" logo/uni --- why not just go back to the originals ... SO classic. SO good.
