UPS dropped off my pack at 6 pm tonight and although I can't see the name on the sticker the wordage I can make out indicates it is the Jordan sticker (I have a SGC 96 one already)!! The card showing on top is Alvin Adams (card #2) so if I read Steve's post right the next card in that sequence would be Kareem. We'll never know as I going to leave it sealed.

I just re-read Steve's post about the "plus 66" sequence. Since #2 is showing on top, the other sequence of 6 cards would start with #68. Drum roll please.....

Hopefully but I have no idea if that's how it worked when you jumped past #1. If it is the next card would be James Worthy
if you haven't ripped your pack yet, i would consider slabbing and selling, if you are thinking economically, but i cant even afford a pack, so i will go now

Not even thinking about the economics, I'm a pack hoarder, have around 100 graded wax/cello/rack packs from 1967 thru 1976 plus probably double that (raw) from the 70's and 80's.
Thankfully I already have the cards mention except Worthy although my Kareem would be lucky to get a 7 due to corner wear and the CL I have is O/C.
OAKESY ... I'm with John on the pack collecting. As my sig line states I USED to have a real nice unopened collection!
HOWEVER, due to the fact that it seems like John MAY have a Jordan Sticker ... Karl Malone ... Checklist ... James Worthy ... I say YA GOTTA RIP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
EDITED TO ADD: And a KAREEM!!!
STAY HEALTHY!

how do you do it?? I am going crazy thinking about it... doesn't it make you crazy to know what is inside there?? >>
Well it helps that I have the complete sets already for 99% of the packs but whenever I was lucky enough to win a lot of same year/series I usually opened one or more.
Here are some of the better pulls:
PSA 9 1970 Pete Rose from a 6th series wax pack PSA 8 AND a PSA 9 OC Rose from a 1971 rack pack (also got 2 Davey Concepcions) 1972 Reggie Jackson and Johnny Bench from a 1972 rack pack (plus their IA cards I think), this was a easy one to open as it was almost split in two 3 1972 Roger Staubach rookie cards but they all were OC 1973 Pete Rose, mint corners but OC (does anyone noticed a Rose theme, LOL)

Guys (I'm assuming we're all guys, as what woman is this geeky?) - I just don't have the stomach for it. My box isn't here, but if anyone wants my 2 packs, I won't even open the box, so as to not torture myself. Face value. I'll eat shipping. Let me know
with the success of this fleer box any chance we could do this again ?
if not . whats next !!!!!!!!!!

Buying: Topps White Out (silver) letters Alex Gordon 80 Topps Greg Pryor “No Name" 90 ProSet Dexter Manley error 90 Topps Jeff King Yellow back 1958 Topps Pancho Herrera (no“a”) 81 Topps Art Howe (black smear above hat) 91 D A. Hawkins BC-12 “Pitcher”
Your best bet is to just send the packs to PSA - they is a very good chance your packs will pull 9's and those should sell very well on ebay! You'd even be able to make some $$$ on the sales.
It would only cost you $24 to have the 2 packs graded.
If you really don't want to do the above I might be willing to buy them from you and I'll do it...

that's the point of getting the graded, i suppose. the packs are straight out of the box. whole process has no interest for me. I was in it for the excitement of the rip, but now we're down to hoping for 'niques and checklists. more or less. so, if anyone wants to deal with psa and make a profit, i'll sell em for what we paid and move on.
a psa 10 wilkins is a sick pull -- since that seems harder to get than a psa jordan
Ill just wait until the next group rip is up

just curious how many packs have been ripped so far?? I think your odds may have actually improved no?? you started out 1 / 11 right?? and there is at least one more out there??
I guess you should change the thread title to 1.9 Jordan so far.

"Molon Labe"
If the math works out, 3 cards would help me with some registry sets (Malone RC, Worthy RC, Kareem basic set) plus that damn Jordan sticker.
The only thing holding me back is they could be all OC

I think it could be a tough sell since 2 of the Jordans have already been accounted for... but I'll think about it.
2 jordans out already., lol
