    Don't if you are worried send the pack into be graded... I just asked Steve what thought the packs would grade:

    All the packs would probably be 8's and 9's. Look for any pinhole tears and such. There really shouldn't be any however as the box was awesome!

    the last PSA 9 Pack on ebay sold for $399.00

    there is also a chance you could get the Jordan sticker pack (which I think you can see).... Those would sell for even more!

  • might have to bust one and then decide on #2. so hard to NOT look.
    for a warmup, i opened 15 packs of 1987 OPC baseball. got a lot of stale gum and a Mickey Hatcher.

    it looks like all 36 packs have been paid for as well- that is very impressive

    I hope lots of MJs get pulled and lots of centered cards show up in the packs.

    That is the key in my limited pack opening. The corners are razor sharp it is just the centering is what determines the grade on most cards.


    the gum will not even damage the card on top and all you have to do is wipe off the powder from the big piece of gum.

    I about fell out of my chair when he panned up to the case of boxes! Then he said they were empty and I came back to earth... lol

    i had a derisive giggle for jlzinck's post, then i watched the video and got all tingly too. image


  • << <i>Steve has the greatest job in the world. >>



    I beg to differ. I could not have all that unopened stuff around me and actually sell it. I would walk through the warehouse every day just grabbing random packs to bust.
  • jeffcbayjeffcbay Posts: 8,950 ✭✭✭✭
    If I was there, I would be like Tony Montana from Scarface, but instead of cocaine all over my face, it would be the powder from all the gum in the packs! image

    I give Steve and crew props for taking the time to put a video together of the RIP. I wish I had purchased a pack now. Thats cool.

    Chilling!! Great way to start off the experience for sure!! image STEVE!!

    Man, I almost crapped seeing the case full of boxes too image

    That would be one nice job to wake up for every morning image
  • Well I am in St.Paul, Mn so hopefully i can get mine today as i had them shipped to my office to avoid Home land security at my house.
  • My four (4) packs arrived this afternoon...everyone's odds just got much better, no Jordan in any of the packs.

    I will post the results shortly.
  • jeffcbayjeffcbay Posts: 8,950 ✭✭✭✭

    TOO BAD. THAT SUCKS FOR YOU. ALTHOUGH THE GUYS ON THIS BOARD ARE NICE, I BET EVERY ONE OF THE GUYS IN THE RIP SAID "OH YES" WHEN THEY READ YOUR POST! LOL. DID YOU GET ANY OF THE TOUGH CARDS? ANY "10s". I HOPE YOU DID.

    I'm in Seattle so by the time I get my pack, I'll pretty much know if I have any chance at all. If three Jordans have already been pulled, maybe I'll just get it slabbed.

  • mmyncmmync Posts: 678
    I'm guessing that the odds of pulling some kind of Jordan is about 19% at this point. Pretty exciting!!
  • Centering on the cards is fairly poor...there are a few cards that are close to centered, but not many.

    As mentioned earlier, the corners are PERFECT...it's the centering that is the problem.

    However, the centering on the stickers appears to be much better.

    If someone can post instructions on how to add scans to messages I can post a few scans.

    41 Dave Greenwood
    107 Terry Teagle

    Good luck to everyone else in the rip, this was fun.

    Thanks Jasen for organizing the rip.

    a nicely centered Kareem sticker could be interesting.
  • MBMiller25MBMiller25 Posts: 6,057 ✭✭
    You potentially have some cards in your rip that could get you some money back, depending on the centering. The Kareem sticker, Maurice Lucas, Checklist, are all tough cards.
  • fergie23fergie23 Posts: 2,154 ✭✭✭✭
    Opened my best centered pack. Pulled an Olajuwon rookie but no Jordan. The odds are getting better and better for those that haven't opened. I will be opening the other two packs in the next couple of weeks. Unfortunately the top card centering for those packs is very, very OC. The corners on the cards in the pack I opened were excellent, I think this box was kept in very good shape.

    Centering does look good on the pack you ripped!

    I'd be interested in a Jordan sticker if someone pulls one that they want to sell. PM me if you do with the price.

    I am in need of the following cards for my RAW set:

    #18 Wayne Cooper
    #26 Clyde Drexler
    #27 Joe Dumars

    and the following stickers:

    #4 Alex English
    #5 Julius Erving
    #10 Isiah Thomas

    THEY DO NOT have to be fresh from a pack ... if you already have ones I'd be interested as well.

    PLEASE PM ME.

    THANKS!!!!!!

    STAY HEALTHY!

    Very nice Jasen, congratulations. Looks well centered to me.
  • Congrats, you deserve on for getting this together.

    Congrats. The Jordan looks to be a nice high grade card.

    All the cards really are in great shape... I will also be subbing about 10 commons. Anyone know how to get the wax of the stickers, those are also in great shape if I can get the wax off!

    Jasen, going by my unsophisticated skills, your Jordan looks to be 57/43 TB and 49/51 LR. image
