<< <i>Just my .02 and the reason I am not joining this one. I assume that the 2 boxes for $300 are the ones that Steve has had forever with stars showing on top or bottom. The chances of pulling a Rickey from one of these 2 boxes will be somewhere between slim and none. I almost bought both of these boxes a few months ago, but after talking to Steve I changed my mind. Steve bought them from a guy who put the boxes together himself and more than likely knew the sequencing. Of course, the only way to prove this is to bust them. Good luck to all. >>

The shipping back and forth through customs would put me weeks behind the event, but I would have enjoyed participating.


Put me on the bottom of the Alts list if you like Bob.

You can put me on the ALt list. Thanks.
Or if someone want to split out one cello, that would be cool.

Have we decided if Steve is going to ship dirrectly to us? If so I was going to order a few more things from BBCE?

I just cashed my welfare check! So here's the "rip money"! P.S. I thought Topps cards had centering issues, just look at those 100 dollar bills! Most are "qualifiers". LOL!

you get more welfare money than i make in the military

Here's some beautiful 1980 Topps Baseball cards from: Frank Smith's 1980 Topps - The Number One Finest Set of All Time

Lots of good pulls possible here! Should be a fun rip!!!

If anyone drops out. I'd like to jump into their spot.

<< <i>who is doing the shipping? If it is anyone but steve, I smell a scam. No offense intended, but due to prior rips/charity gifts this should be the ONLY option. Id check into this before confirming your lots, buyer beware. >>



Well I see the Big has made his appearance. I wonder why he isn't also asking for Hockey to be included?? The only scam here is you posting to cry about the leader of this break.

Here's a Fisk 10 that came from the last 1980 Topps group rip. The 1980 Topps is a great year.



The only reason why I sat out of this one is because I don't like cello. I hope you pull eleventeen Hendersons!

Jeff, Nice card! Was that from the rip where we got wax from every year in the 80's+, etc.? I can't remember, too old! LOL!

I think this was from a case rip, because I remember getting an entire box. This is the same box where I pulled two Hendersons, that graded PSA 9 and PSA 8. This is when I realized there will never be another Henderson graded PSA 10.

I still have a hand full of sharp and centered HOF cards that I don't think I'll ever sub. If I get a 9, I won't be able to make my grading money back. I already made my money back from the box itself. The Henderson 9 sold for around $225, the Henderson 8 sold for around $60, and the Fisk 10 just sold for $50 (thought that would go for more). Maybe I'll sub the rest of the nice '80s at a later date, but for now I'll just wait.

Just a heads-up to all participants!


Steve Hart is on a buying trip on the "east coast". (We can assume more good stuff soon @ BBCE?)

I will hear from him later on today! (Monday).

Yes! BBCE will ship for us, collect the "bread" from us all!

And we can expect a "group discount" from Steve.

I just want to make sure that BBCE will pass-out the "star cellos" equally to all of us. (we can expect about two "star cellos" each, plus to regular cellos, for a total of 4 cellos each!)...

Star Cellos = A star card on the top or bottom of the cello pack!

rd

P.S. If anyone does not have a Paypal account please, PM, email, or post here, thanx!

My guess, will be about $45, plus BBCE shipping & Handling!

Plus, I expect each participant to pull at least (3) cards for PSA grading. I an writing a nice letter to Joe Orlando, letting him know we are trying something new: i.e., a "group rip" and "group PSA submission" together! I'm asking him for very special consideration here. (A special low price, like $4, just for a this message board members' "group rip and grade")... maybe this will be a trend Joe & Company will continue for us into the future?

Sounds to me!

so let the fun begin!

Did you know this fact about 1980?

1980: A court ruling states that Topps’ exclusive rights apply only to baseball cards sold with gum, opening the door for competitors to finally get back in the game. (So in some way, the 1980 Topps Baseball set, just might be the last year of "vintage baseball"?)


So, did the Modern Era of Sports Cards begin in 1981?

1981: Taking advantage of the ruling, Donruss and Fleer both produce their first baseball card sets.

Hello scashaggy (Shawn),

Can you turn on your PM (pivate messages) for me?

Just click "profile" and check yes, for "allow private messages"!



rd


P.S. Shawn, do not worry, about duplicates submissions to PSA, as I'll deal with cards as they come in. I'll make sure duplicates get a seperate submission sheet, thus will have a unique submission #. Don't worry Shawn, I'll get it together for us all! I'll be in contact with PSA, just to make sure, grading will be done correctly and to make sure each of us get the right cards.

Robert,
If you were to do that with different submission numbers you would be opening it up to having to all be sent back seperate, which is seperate Shipping fees. I don't think we would want that, at least I wouldn't. If we to do that we can just send our own cards in. I don't see a problem with you keeping track and which line item goes to who. Lets not over complicate this.
Thanks

Don't worry, Neal. I 100% agree with you! I'm going to get it all "squared away" with PSA! I do not see any problems either. But I'm going to ask Joe about how he wants it done! So this way, we will have Joe's "stamp of approval" in the submission! LOL! But Neal, just in case we get a ton of "group submissions" (there's over 2000 cards in those cellos!), I'll need to use seperate submission forms for some. But I'll deal with it! Like I said, it will be my please to get it right for us!
