Cards in poor condition, trimmed, or truthfully made 'packs' by an old store owner? Having trouble believing this one.

    At least the seller is being honest that they are all made up packs with one good card showing.

    I agree at least he is stating that there is nothing more then the Front card, so I am ok with this method... Also he only has them starting at 0.01... Not like they are saying "loaded with stars"...

    I think that he meant most of the cards range from 1986 to 1990.

    I also always like how these guys who 'don't have the time' to search through a box of cards, or in this case open these homemade packs, do 'have the time' to take multiple pictures of an item, write a detailed description of the item and post them for sale on eBay individually.

    HAHAHAHAHA. AGREED! Although those packs may go cheaply ... thing to keep in mind is to bid ON THE TOP CARD ONLY, using an "EX" condition price. JMO.

    i think that $15 price tag on the pack may have had something to do with it. LOL

    Bill you disappoint me....I would have expected you to feel like me. This guy is an out and out Crook by Deception. He is giving the impression that you are going to find something in these BS Packs HE Made, Yes He made!!

    Kiss my Grits on the old store BS. He made these packs with crap cards and not only will some sell for rediculous money, but he is going to be making money off of Shipping and volume!!!

    Crook, plain and simple, preying on Idiots. But if your stupid enough to buy this Crap!!! Well I've got some Beach front property in Colo. Springs !!!!!!!

    Oh Well !!!!!

    I find these as deceptive as the christmas rack packs.

    I just looked at these auctions again and noticed that none of the cards look like they're in any kind of "packs" at all. Theyre all in single sleeves, and that Montana RC is even in a sleeve/top loader.

    He should call them by their proper name: Grab Bags.

    I don't see anything fraudulent or deceptive in his listing. You're getting at least the card in the picture. It's not like he's saying "You could possibly get the card pictured."

    You'll find some 1988 cards. Is there really anyone with a different impression?

    The real scam is "Shipping cannot be combined," but again you would have to be a fool to come up with a different impression. . .

    Maybe he stuffed 3 cards in a penny sleeve and is calling them a pack.
