    Man, I never get in on one of these. Would you consider doing a group rip where the max is 3 pack per member or something? And then if it's not sold out in 24-48 hours, allow members to buy more?

    Just a thought. Good luck, guys!
    2.5 is pretty much my speed.

    Hi. That is very cool of you Miconelegacy. If they are available, can I have two of them?

    I missed out on the last 77 rip also, and since it's the main set I am collecting I really would appreciate getting in on this. Thanks again!

    I am hoping for one of the two packs to look extra nice because I am thinking of having one slabbed. I have a beautiful pack graded from GAI, so I am thinking I would like a slabbed cello to go with it. We shall see if I have the willpower to not open one of them!

    I'll take 2 of the 4, then, if necessary, and if Echo and 1980s collector both want a pack...no problem, just want to expedite shipment of the box.

  • SethroSethro Posts: 671 ✭✭
    Received my cards on Friday, so they were in my hands three days after payment. Nice.

    I kept one of the two packs unopened, as I would like to send it in to be slabbed, so I only opened one of them.

    Got a Sutter rookie. I have six of them now, still no 9. image

    Great pull Sethro, even if you do have a bunch. I agree that it doesn't look like a 9 though.

    How were the other cards from the pack you opened?

    The other cards in the pack looked OK. The corners and edges (except the bottom of that Sutter) were OK, considering it was a tightly wrapped cello pack. The centering was all over the place. Top to bottom, left to right, right to left.

    Doesn't it always seem like the star card is the one that always ends up with an issue? Sounds like the packs will graded out well though.

    It definitely seems like that is always the case with the star cards. I went through a 77 vending box which yielded virtually no stars, but the cards were in beautiful condition as far as corners and edges. The only card with a big gigantic chip missing from the edge was one of the few star cards, a Dawson rookie. It was literally the only card with a chipped edge. Figures!

    I am hoping for some stars showing on the next two cellos I am getting!
