Actually, that's a joke. My snipe was set to where I was comfortable, but someone else's was a bit higher. It went for something like $2300, which works out to $760 a rack box ($380 a box if they were wax). Since then, a lot more hype has generated around the 86 set. I would expect to pay $375-$425 per box. I regret not bidding higher on the rack case, but who knows how high the winner would go. I know Kevin from Elitecards sold a bunch of case-fresh boxes with no problem at $400 a box a while back.

I bid $2525 I think and it went for $2700.
That was the good rack not the bleh grocery rack.
I ripped a Cello box from Steve last fall.
First 15 or so packs, NOTHING.
Ended up with a a Rice, 3 Youngs, and probably 3 of each of the others worth having.
Usual centering problems, but that's the fun of taking the 'chance'.

<< <i>I talked with Nick aka Nam812 today, he said he asked Steve about a case and Steve told him he hasn't seen a case of 1986 wax in about five years. >>
I heard the Steph's closet has a 1/2 case of resealed 86's....
How about a 1985 football case rip.
or 1984
- 1985, as Boopotts once put it, is fools gold. PSA 10s go for a lot, but you're lucky to get 2 out of a box. Since most PSA 9s are worthless (except for a couple), I would say the likelihood of getting your money back are slim to none.
- 1981 is ok, but if you don't pull a decent Montana you're throwing your money down the drain.
Anything before that is almost impossible to find sealed cases of. My suggestion would be to do a combo rip of multiple boxes. For around $250, you could do a box of 1982, 1983, 1987, 1988. No one's going to break the bank, but it's a lot of ripping, and a lot of great undervalued RCs. The problem would be locating all those cases, but none of them are that difficult to find.

<< <i>If football's what everybody wants to do, 84 is a great choice because of multiple nice RCs (Marino, Elway, Dickerson, Morten Anderson, Roger Craig, Howie Long.....). Should be around $450 a box, but again, not sure if you can find a case. Each box, if clean, should yield about 4-6 PSA 10s total.

Pretty much right on the money except imo there are a lot of low pop psa 9s that could yield some bucks in 1985. The boxes are SO MUCH cheaper than 84 and 86 that I think its a quality rip.
81 is a brutal rip, you could pull a 9 montana and still lose money.
84 and 86 have tons of low pop cards that bring nice money even in 9s. Just sold an 86 dorsett 9 for $90 for example.

That would be my choice
