BBCE 1980's Group Rip Pack Runs... lets see your hits!

leathtech · May 16, 2009 12:30AM

Post your best pulled cards... packs were rather uneventful for me but it was still a blast ripping all the packs from my youth!

Sportsamerica · May 16, 2009 12:32AM

Nice Aikman... hope my packs show up today...

leathtech · May 16, 2009 2:08AM

<< Nice Aikman... hope my packs show up today... >>

thanks I think I pulled another 8 though... this set sure is hard to pull 9's and 10's edges seem to chip very easy.

BigRedMachine · May 16, 2009 4:01AM

Too bad that Aikman isn't a 10. But obviously that's one of the best cards to pull from the 89 set.

You pick your cards up in person?? I paid for my Thursday but wasn't expecting to get them til Monday or Tuesday.

I wish mine were here, I'd be ripping as we speak.

There are some things that you can't un-see.

thanks

awesome pull on the Aikman

BigRedMachine · May 16, 2009 11:40PM

Thanks to a Moderator's Edit, I can now enjoy this thread and eat at the same time.

I'm hoping mine show tomorrow, probably be Tuesday. I'll share scans when they arrive.

Here are my "hits". These are some of my favorite rips as they bring back a ton of memories from my child hood.

FavreFan1971 · May 18, 2009 8:31AM

I tore apart my office so I don't have a scanner but my first pack was 1989 score and I got a Jerry Rice. Then I got shut out for awhile. 1986 Andre Reed Rookie and 1988 Sterling Sharpe Rookie. Fun rip though.

scashaggy · May 18, 2009 8:50AM

Hopefully I'll receive my packs in the next day or two.

mtcards · May 19, 2009 4:04AM

At work and ripped while working. I think I got the Mike Schmidt run because I received a total of 14 Mike Schmidt cards from the baseball runs, no big rookies or anything else, just a few minor stars.

With the football, I got a few nice Dorsetts and a really nice looking Warren Moon Rc out of the 1985 Topps.

jeffcbay · May 19, 2009 5:18AM

I would like to announce a CONTEST!

Whoever pulls the first 1982 Ripken (Jr.) wins the chance to ship it to ME!

BigRedMachine · May 19, 2009 6:22AM

Received my packs today.

Got my baseball run, plus my extras!!

Thanks Leathtech & Steve for putting this together.

Golf league tonight, I'll rip and scan later tonight.

nothing wrong with that!

You should have ordered a 1973 pack too.

therebelas · May 19, 2009 11:39AM

Don't have a scanner at the house, but here goes my highlights (subjective, of course):

81D - Mookie, Torre
81F - Griffey
81T - Fernando/Sciosia, Brett
82F - Brett, Carter/Parker, Fernando
82T - Rose IA, Parker
83F - Rice, Carew
83T - Reggie Super Veteran
83D - Julio Franco (Rookie, right?)
84D - Ryan, Ozzie, Seaver, "Runnin' Reds," Mattingly --- Talk about one hell of a pack!
84F - Parker
85T - Gwynn (gum bled through)
85D - Eric Davis, Orel
85F - Reggie, Schmidt
86T - Fielder, Braves TL
86O - Molitor, J. Niekro
86D - Rickey
87F - Gooden
87T - Ozzie AS
87O - Rose (currently in freezer...)
88S - Sandberg
88O - Puckett
88T - Carter
88D - Ripken
89UD - Molitor
89T - Ventura, Puckett AS
89B - Maddux
89D - Trammell, Winfield MVP, Clark MVP, Ozzie

Many thanks for putting this together. Now I'm regretting not picking up the football, too. Won't be my last rip, that's for sure.

usmc1986 · May 19, 2009 2:15PM

Packs arrived today....too bad the '85 Marino is way o/c.

richtree · May 20, 2009 4:23AM

mine better be there when I get home today !!!!!

jfkheat · May 20, 2009 7:42AM

I got my packs today. I'm out of town working so I don't have a scanner. My best card was a 89 Score Barry Sanders rookie. It would probably grade an 8. I got a couple Montanas and Marinos but none worth the grading fees. Didn't get much but had fun ripping the packs. Thanks for setting this up.

BigRedMachine · May 20, 2009 8:56AM

Unfortunately, my packs didn't yield anything of note either.

Even with the additional packs of 1980 topps, 1982 topps, 1983 topps, and 1983 donruss I added, no rookies whatsoever.

No Henderson, Ripken, Gwynn, Sandberg, Boggs, Mattingly, Clemens, McGwire, Bonds, Griffey......nothing.

Since I have no good cards to post, I thought I'd post my worst card. Condition on my packs was terrible, but the following took the cake. (Honestly, no photoshop here, this is the card!)

Was hoping for some cards to send in on the next group sub, but got shutout. Maybe next time.

nam812 · May 20, 2009 9:00AM

You just made Barfvader's day with that miscut.

BigRedMachine · May 20, 2009 9:29AM

<< You just made Barfvader's day with that miscut. >>

Which card is this?? It's right down the middle.

PSA 9 OC Ken Griffey, or;
PSA 9 OC Scott McGregor

I should send it in to see.

BigRedMachine · May 20, 2009 9:30AM

Maybe it's the rare McGriffey version??

I'll pay your sub fee just to see what they say. It might boggle the mind!

daddymc · May 20, 2009 10:29AM

I received my football and baseball lots today. I'll be scanning shortly.

daddymc · May 20, 2009 11:09AM

Here are the highlights from my football lot. A lot of HOF star power.

Too bad the LT rookie is OC, still a cool card:

The only Payton I pulled was the sticker:

Including the above Payton sticker, the '85 pack was loaded:

LOL Yes, that is a Boz rookie card:

Another HOF rookie, Michael Irvin:

Including the Largent above the '89 Score pack was loaded with RCs and HOF'ers:

daddymc · May 20, 2009 11:27AM

I was feeling pretty good when this was in the first pack of baseball I ripped:

No more rookies after that though and limited star power.

Not really worth scanning but there was:

'81 Fleer Jim Gantner, Gaylord Perry
'82 Topps Phil Niekro, Carlton Fisk IA
'83 Fleer Gary Carter
'83 Donruss Don Sutton
'83 Topps Bruce Sutter SV
'85 Fleer Pete Rose 4000th Hit
'85 O-Pee-Chee Wade Boggs
'85 Topps Tony Perez RB
'86 Donruss Phil Niekro
'86 Fleer Rod Carew 3000 Career Hits
'86 O-Pee-Chee Goose Gossage, Carlton Fisk
'86 Topps Don Mattingly AS
'87 O-Pee-Chee Dave Winfield
'89 Fleer Ryne Sandberg, Wade Boggs AS
'88 Score Nolan Ryan, Phil Niekro
'89 Score Ozzie Smith, Nolan Ryan

Oh yeah, and a 1982 Topps Rusty Kuntz

There was one bad thing with the baseball packs. I wouldn't hold out any high hopes as far as pulling a Griffey RC out of the high number packs. I found these three cards in the middle of my pack:

There's even a big stain across the front of the '82 Topps Mahler.

In any case, the thrill of pulling the Ripken RC made the baseball rip well worth it!

BigRedMachine · May 20, 2009 11:30AM

Wait a minute. Let me get this straight.

You pulled a 1982 topps card out of your 1989 upper deck pack??

Did I read that right??

Wow. No wonder I didn't pull a Henderson, Raines, Ripken, Gwynn, Boggs, Sandberg, Mattingly, McGwire, Puckett, Clemens, Bonds, or Griffey rookie card.

The other packs were fine in my opinion, and I've ripped 80's packs from BBCE before and never had a problem. It just looks like there may be a problem with the '89 UD high number packs. I did pull the nice Ripken RC.

I've ripped 80's packs from Steve too. I didn't notice anything wrong with any of them, and really just let out my frustration with the stuff I pulled in the above post. I DIDN'T mean to imply I thought Steve was at fault. I don't know Steve personally, but my email "conversations" with him and the extras he's thrown in for me has always made me feel he's as honest as the day is long. I'm NOT blaming him.

That being said, you're not suppose to get 1982 topps cards in 1989 UD packs, right??

daddymc · May 20, 2009 11:47AM

<< That being said, you're not suppose to get 1982 topps cards in 1989 UD packs, right?? >>

LOL, not that I know of.

akuracy503 · May 20, 2009 12:01PM

Is it possible to reseal/counterfeit the Upper Deck foil packs?
Could it be possible that the UD factory had an old topps card laying around and just happen to slip into the production line?

One of the most bizarre instances i've seen.

airjoedan · May 20, 2009 12:01PM

If anyone pulls or already has the following 1982 Topps football cards in any condition I would completely appreciate the help with my set and would pay you for the cards. It is a set I've been working on since I was ten years old and have already received a bunch of help with from board members - thanks again and awesome pulls guys. I've always wanted to open a 1986 Topps football pack, looks fun!

89 Donruss - Mattingly

86 Fleer - Jim Rice
87 Fleer - Canseco, that's about it.

Thanks to leathtech for putting this together. I really enjoyed it. I have also fallen in love with late 80's OPC. Dammit.

I'm not sure, I was hoping to hear some opinions on this.

Mintacular · May 20, 2009 12:09PM

All this talk of busting packs has led me to busting some '89 Donruss packs from a case I bought at the show this weekend. I got a Griff on the first pack, and nothing after, go figure. Here is what I bought:
