A little random 2-day poppage

Left my house last Friday. Received Monday. Logged in Wednesday. Grades popped yesterday. 54 card order popped before my 14 card order of all 1951 Bowman.

Most of these are from National purchases or pack rips.

$2 or $3 each. Guess I can't complain:

NEAR MINT 7 1956 TOPPS 34 TOM BREWER WHITE BACK
NEAR MINT 7 1956 TOPPS 6 RAY BOONE WHITE BACK

$20:

NEAR MINT 7 1957 TOPPS 90 WARREN SPAHN

$20 purchase as we were heading out the door. Was hoping for an 8:

NEAR MINT 7 1975 TOPPS MINI 223 ROBIN YOUNT

Bought a few random 1980 racks from BBCE. One had been searched. You could see the fingernail marks at the top of each rack. Glad I was drunk and opened it any way. The Yaz was in that pack:

MINT 9 1980 TOPPS 110 FRED LYNN
MINT 9 1980 TOPPS 118 PHIL GARNER
NEAR MINT-MINT 8 1980 TOPPS 274 DALE MURPHY
MINT 9 1980 TOPPS 486 MIKE TYSON
GEM MINT 10 1980 TOPPS 670 YANKEES FUTURE STARS
MINT 9 1980 TOPPS 685 PADRES FUTURE STARS
GEM MINT 10 1980 TOPPS 720 CARL YASTRZEMSKI

A few more from boxes from BBCE:

GEM MINT 10 1982 TOPPS 6 FERNANDO VALENZUELA

NEAR MINT+ 7.5 1982 TOPPS 138 TONY PENA

MINT 9 1982 DONRUSS 294 MIKE SCHMIDT
MINT 9 1982 FLEER 633 CARL YASTRZEMSKI
GEM MINT 10 1982 FLEER 637 MIKE SCHMIDT

This is the 4th time this has happened to me on 4 different ones pulled from packs. I'm sorry this happened to me....again:

N6: MINIMUM SIZE REQUIREMENT 1982 FLEER 176 CAL RIPKEN JR.

A few 89 Fleer Glossy including the Griff I got at National:

GEM MINT 10 1989 FLEER GLOSSY 602 JOHN SMOLTZ
GEM MINT 10 1989 FLEER GLOSSY 628 JOSE CANSECO SPEED AND POWER

$20 box of jumbos from antique store. PSA hates Jeter:

    They do seem hard on the 1993 Topps Jeter. Have almost dropped the $75+ for one a couple times now.

    Not really sure. Would love to see an uncut sheet to see if the Ripken was on the top or bottom of the sheet. Only explanation I can think of.

    I do know that the 82 Fleer Ripkens often come out short from vending boxes but this was a cello pack.
