Hey all,
That 76 BB vending case looks so amazing, I had to figure there was a way for more of us to get in on the fun. Steve at BBCE has a nice sealed 77 FB vending case, and is willing to sell it to us for $9000, or $375 per 500 ct vending box. The pop report looks as good or better than the 76 BB, as 9s are tough to come by, and many of the key stars (Bradshaw, Staubach) are Zero pop in PSA 10. In fact, only about half of the cards in set are zero pop in PSA 10. Who wants to join in the fun?

All payments will be sent to Steve directly (BBCExchange@sprintmail.com), who will ship them out himself. DO NOT SEND PAYMENT UNTIL SOLD OUT. I know there's an 86 Fleer BK break up now too, so it might be tought to sell this out, but I had to try!
UPDATE FROM STEVE:
"Case case from a old time collector who bought vending cases in the year of issue and put them away. Cases have since been brought out and sold. There is no mildew, no water or no damage to them. This case came from the same source who I just sold the 1976 Topps baseball vending case who has listed his results on CU boards!
Thanks! Steve"
If that doesn't sell this out, i don't know what will. I might up myself to 3-4 boxes after that info..
SOLD OUT!!! here are the shipping charges:

Given that this is sealed, and Steve is the dealer, removes the risk of searching the vending boxes. Are they random cards similar in sequence to cello box or lots of multiples?
<< <i>Can somebody explain the advantages/disadvantages of a vending box vs. a cello or wax box. I noticed Steve also has a cello box of 77 FB for 1,000. Not sure how many cards/cello that year, but assuming it was around 20, you're essentially paying for ~500 cards in the cello for 1K vs. 375/box in the vending. Plus the cellos can be tightly sealed. Any cello I've ever opened has bent corners on the top card.

Vending, no gum, no chance for stains. Cello, chance for bad corners because they are wrapped tight in the cellophane. Vending, there is a chance of some corner dings though, I do not believe that they are package in the vending box with no chance of movement.

I'm currently obsessed with completing this set in a PSA 8-10 range.
I have about 200 cards of this set graded and I would love to get one of these.
Thx, Rob
4 down, 20 to go!
I've never opened vending FB from this year but have opened wax with mixed results - one box was horrible and the other was very good with great centering (several rough edges though). I have not had surface wrinkles from this year, so that box you opened may have been an anomaly. Most of my subs came back 8-9.
One of the best FB sets ever, IMO
got you down, hammered.

<< <i>A shame...looks like we will not make it this time. i might try again in a month or so, and will pm everyone here when i do! in the meantime, i'll go buy some stocks today instead. i'll lose just as much money, but it will not be nearly as fun.
if we get closer next time, im in for 2
It would be nice to start a set, maybe another day.

<< <i>You got 13 out of 24 in less than a week. Why the abrupt halt? >>
Exactly. Seems like we could get this filled by Friday. A few others have already expressed interest since you halted it. This would be a very fun rip...
Besides, some posters go through a few stages before deciding to join a group rip.
No, I don't have the money now.
Well, I'll see what happens, money a little tight.
It does look like an interesting group rip.
Is this thread still here? God obviously wants me to participate.

Edited to add that this must be done prior to 5:00AM PST on Friday March 6th as I will be gone until Tuesday of the following week with no Internet access.
I've never done this before, but who wants to start a new thread and see if we could get enough theoreticals?
