GROUP RIP: 1975 OPC Wax Baseball - A couple GRADES Posted.. MORE Grades 3/24!

onefasttalon · February 23, 2011 12:51AM

Steve (BBCExchange) has a '75 OPC Wax box for sale... I just email'd him and confirmed we can buy this as a group if we're interested! 1975 OPC Wax

I've never org'd a group rip, but have participated in a few in the past. I'm willing to take the lead on this one.

There are 48 packs in the box... the cost per pack at our group rate would be $40/ea plus shipping.
As in the past, Steve will handle all pack dist. and shipping.

Count me in for three.

fattymacs · February 23, 2011 1:30AM

I'll take one.

Beck6 · February 23, 2011 1:45AM

I'll take one pack

edmundfitzgerald · February 23, 2011 1:47AM

Sounds like fun, but I will sit back and watch, as my fear of 70% of the cards being o/c will lead me to sit out.

jeffcbay · February 23, 2011 2:01AM

Only 70% will be OC?? The quality control must be much better at OPC than Topps!

GooshA · February 23, 2011 2:14AM

Am in for two.

minnesotahusker · February 23, 2011 2:51AM

Count me in for 3. I said I wasn't going to do these anymore. But I love the 1975s

onefasttalon · February 23, 2011 3:13AM

List updated... Hope to sell this out quickly! I can't imagine it will be hard to do....

goye · February 23, 2011 4:44AM

And one.

Thanks for stepping up, goye

grote15 · February 23, 2011 6:33AM

I'll take 6 packs! Thanks!

onefasttalon · February 23, 2011 6:40AM

Gotcha guys! We're almost half way home.... night crew ought to fill us up!... I hope!

Keep'em coming!

I can't wait to bust open a few of these packs!

Sean1125 · February 23, 2011 6:44AM

good luck wish I had extra cash!

fergie23 · February 23, 2011 7:50AM

I will take 4 packs.
Thanks,

Robb

stangrider · February 23, 2011 8:01AM

I'll take two packs, thanks. PM sent

onefasttalon · February 23, 2011 8:36AM

PM replied to... list updated!

20 to go! Keeping my fingers crossed we can knock out the packs tonight!

jeffcbay · February 23, 2011 8:39AM

Is the "cards per pack" the same as Topps?

ThoseBackPages · February 23, 2011 9:07AM

<< <i>Is the "cards per pack" the same as Topps? >>

8 O-Pee-Chee and i think 10 Topps?

Toro · February 23, 2011 9:36AM

Lock me in for 10, thanks

Toro · February 23, 2011 9:36AM

It's going to suck if the first rip has a bunch of off-centered cards!

onefasttalon · February 23, 2011 10:05AM

Sweeet! Toro putts us just MUCH closer!

Less than a dozen to go!

... ya, I know the OPC have fewer cards than the reg Topps... but there will be plenty of cards to go around.
All it takes is just 1 good card to make it all worth while!

grote15 · February 23, 2011 10:53AM

Sure the cards may be OC but busting 35-yr-old wax is not supposed to be profitable. There are CDs and bond funds for that!

OAKESY25 · February 23, 2011 11:05AM

ok i am in for 5

mknez · February 23, 2011 11:12AM

OK, I'll take 1

Toro · February 23, 2011 11:32AM

Alright, I think I'm going to go buy CD's instead. Always wanted a Carrie Underwood CD.

Sean1125 · February 23, 2011 11:36AM

<< <i>Alright, I think I'm going to go buy CD's instead. Always wanted a Carrie Underwood CD. >>

Why do that when you can buy a tebow sticker for $100?

jwgators · February 23, 2011 11:37AM

I will do two.

I am a newbie so I may need "Group Rip Instructions for Dummies".

Sean1125 · February 23, 2011 11:42AM

<< <i>I will do two.

I needed them when I was doing mine too.

Basically ask someone for his paypal, then what to note (PSA Board rip for whatever/however many packs etcetcetc)

jwgators · February 23, 2011 11:43AM

Thanks.

jeffcbay · February 23, 2011 11:48AM

Do a search in this forum for "group rip" and you should find plenty of past rips with the instructions in them.

grote15 · February 23, 2011 11:48AM

Alright, I think I'm going to go buy CD's instead. Always wanted a Carrie Underwood CD

Just for that wisecrack, I predict you will pull a miscut Brett RC...

onefasttalon · February 23, 2011 11:53AM

jwgators .... don't worry, it's a piece of cake.

Once all 48 packs are spoken for, I'll email Steve and let him know we're ready.
I'll post his email address so you can send him a Paypal payment for the packs plus what he needs for shipping...
...once all the packs are paid for, Steve will ship these packs directly to you!

I will ask all those participating to let me know you've paid so I can mark you as such... that's only so I know who to nag if they're holding us up.

I doubt payment will drag out longer than a day or two... so we should all have packs to rip by the end of next week.

Here are the shipping rates based on the previous group breaks.

Box breaks:
1-5 packs---->$3.00 plus insurance (optional)
6 packs or more---->$5.00 plus insurance (optional)

The added insurance rates are exactly what www.usps.com has listed:

$50 and under---->$1.75
$50 to $100.00---->$2.25
$100.00 to $200.00---->$2.75

jwgators · February 23, 2011 11:57AM

Sweet, that is easy enough.

I probably shouldn't be buying them, but just don't tell my wife. I will tell her they were still 10 cents per pack.

jimrad · February 23, 2011 12:48PM

I will take the last 2 if they are still left.

grote15 · February 23, 2011 1:03PM

In the spirit of the 1975 OPC issue, here are two gems I pulled from wax packs I ripped and sent in to PSA about a year ago:

1966CUDA · February 23, 2011 2:35PM

Here's one I pulled from a pack a few years ago.

onefasttalon · February 23, 2011 9:14PM

I will take the last 2 if they are still left.

Yes Sir! The last two are yours.... and now we're sold out!
I'll shoot Steve another email letting him know, and securing the payment info just to make sure nothing's changed since out last group rip.
As soon as I get confirmation back, I'll post payment info and GREEN LIGHT payment!

More in a little bit.....

onefasttalon · February 23, 2011 10:14PM

We're all set! Just got word back from Steve... let the payments begin!
