group case break question

I have seen read all of the threads from the previous group breaks and have found them wildly interesting. From what I gather is that most come from BBCE, I assume this is mainly for trust reasons.
Has anyone considered an Ebay purchase of a case from a certain year and splitting it up 24 ways, a wax box each?
The reason I ask is that there happens to be a case of 1984 OPC on Ebay at this time.

May need a little help with that link.
Has anyone attempted such an endeavor?
Is this a little too risky for this board?
Is 1984 OPC not worth the postage?
Could buying from unknown dealer on Ebay cause major problems?
Arethere some unseen difficulties that are out there?
Can we rationally explain why Dale Murphy is not in the HOF?
And why has Saturday not been renamed Sabanday?
These are just a few questions I'd like to ask this board.

FWIW I have dealt with that seller. He has bought from me.

Link to auction
the OPC case looks crushed and abused however.
Dale Murphy was one of the top 5 players in baseball for a 10 year stretch; he may make the HOF, but it would not surprise me if he didnt. He probably needed about 50 more dingers, I'd vote for him not only for his excellence and dominance but he exemplifies, sportsmanship and class.

Thanks for the feedback so far.
If the actual case was in better shape and the seller had a very good feedback would such a breakbe feasible on this board?
Naturally it would have to some product from the 80's, anything before that would be a little pricey and not worth the gamble, I assume.
his $65.00 shipping fee seems high, i swear ive shipped cases for less than that via UPS.
