All those evidence of trimming does nothing but show how inconsistent card grading can be. Ive never had one come back EOT, but if I pulled a card from a pack and it came back that way, I think I would be PO about it.

besides the fisheye it does look very sharp.

After you carefully remove it. Use a womens nylon and carefully rub the stain. It should come off pretty easy. It is actualy alot easier to remove a stain from the front then one on the back.

Isnt the nylon for wax, and wax only ? >>
I have used it for gum too. Puting it in the freezer first may actualy work. You want to keep the gum as hard as possible when trying to remove it. I would were a latex glove too. This should keep the moisture from your hand off the gum. The last think you want to do is smear it.
<< <i>Use a womens nylon and carefully rub the stain. >>
WTH kind of advice was that? Do not use nylons on gum. It will only scratch the surface or remove chunks of paper. Nylons are only used for wax. The only way to remove gum without damaging the card, assuming the gum didn't make the card bubble up, is to freeze it.

Bought 3 1984 Topps football packs.....one pack was a bust....one packed pulled an Elway, the other pack pulled a Fouts....this was my first rip, and I thoroughly enjoyed it....please keep me abreast next time....I would love to participate in another one!
Not good at all.....I am going to submit it to PSA under the $6 special because of sentimental reasons with this being my first rip and all, but it is favoring the bottom border...left to right is good...I predict a PSA 9(OC).
I really want to do a group rip with 1976-1986 Topps football. That would include 1 pack of 76,77,78,79,80 and so on up to 86. Would anyone be interested in doeing this. I think it would be about $125 per person after the group discount? I love opening up older wax. Modern packs just don't have the same feel or smell when they come from a foil pack as do the older wax packs. Let me know if you would be interested in doing a group football rip for those years. I am sure it will take some time to fill up just because of the price.

Sounds fun. Count me in. Anybody notice the gum tastes funny?
<< <i>can anyone fill my 88/89 fleer basketball wantlist? I'll take off center cards! >>
I'll see what I have and try to PM you by this weekend, but I don't have many double left.
Does anyone get a Hardy Nickerson card (#199) out of their 89 Score Football that would probably grade out a 9? If you are interested in selling/trading, please send me a PM.
I recently decided to start a collection of RCs for all players that attended Cal and this is one that I need.

*edit* I would have loved to join in on a 84 / 86 Topps Football rip but to me basketball cards would go between the spokes of my bike.
1st pack
2nd-4th pack......not much
5th pack

<< <i>Well, you can't ask for more from 2 packs of 84 Topps - but you can sure ask for better centering! Oh well, better than getting none of them.
And to think I let him have those packs from some of mine.
What are the chances it cleans?

Only decent card was an 86 Marino. Probaly will grade an 8 so I will just save it for a bulk submission or on the current special if I get a chance

I would be interested if it's only football.
