Poppage - lots of OPC baseball and other misc (PACKAGE ARRIVED)

Big80s

This was a random submission of mine (per usual). I was expecting some low grades on the Mantle OPC's, but the PSA 2 was kind of a shocker - I must have missed some paper loss. The '77 OPC baseball cards all came from one wax box I bought from Adam & Dave's card world a few years back. Anyways - I enjoy seeing other people's results, so I figured I'd share...

Confrats on all those PSA 10 77 OPCs!! were those cards pulled from wax packs from BBCE?

Big80s

Thank you! Actually, they're all from a wax box I bought from Adam & Dave several years back. A few board members gave me a hard time, because I was buying it from A&D. But I'm pretty happy with the results.

DavidPuddy

Very impressive 77 OPC's!

EagleEyeKid

on the OPCs.

Big80s

Thanks guys!

jbox

Nice! I love OPC baseball!!

those '77s made me wet my pants!

Big80s

That makes two of us!

CDsNuts

That's the most OPC 10s I've ever seen in a sub, nice work.

Cardman222001

Awesome grades !!

PM sent

Big80s

I appreciate it, Lee. I'm amazed I had this much luck from one wax box.

cpamike

Sorry about the Mantle, but those 77 OPC's make up for it in a BIG way. Plus, you can always resub the Mantle if you can't find anything wrong with it.

Way to go Jeff!!!

ThoseBackPages

Jeff, no Brett's in the 77 OPC Sub?

<< <i>Jeff, no Brett's in the 77 OPC Sub? >>



I didn't pull any from the box. Thankfully I already had a nice one.

Big80s

<< <i>18558027 MINT 9 1977 O-PEE-CHEE 199 RON CEY Card US for sale? thanks cc >>



Yes it is.

I've had quite a few messages about this group of cards, so I thought I should address this here. They will be for sale - most likely on eBay. I'll post a link on the BST board when they go up (they just popped yesterday, so it'll be several days).

divecchia

Wow, congrats on some terrific OPC poppage...

Jeff, did you video any of the rippage?

jeffcbay

I would love to see some scans of those 10s when you get them. How many of them are rough-edge 10s?

Big80s

<< <i>Jeff, did you video any of the rippage? >>



I didn't. I actually opened this box a few years back and had the cards in Card Savers all of this time. I was thinking about building a set registry set from this year, but have recently decided not to.

Big80s

<< <i>I would love to see some scans of those 10s when you get them. How many of them are rough-edge 10s? >>



I'll post scans of the 10's if you'd like when I have them in-hand.

fiveniner

Good Job!!! By the way I have never had a problem myself with Dave and Adam.

Big80s

<< <i>Good Job!!! By the way I have never had a problem myself with Dave and Adam. >>



I haven't either. But with that said - I am a huge advocate of BBCE, and they're always my first choice for unopened material.

Big80s

I picked up the package from the post office today and everything looks great. Here's a scan of a couple of the cards I'm pretty excited about (sorry for the lousy scan - my scanner is old).

ThoseBackPages

oh my goodness!

Big80s

Thank you!

Bert "Be Home" Blyleven

Nice cards !

jeffcbay

Wow, those are huge! Nice job!

Big80s

Thanks again, fellas. I'm pretty excited about this submission. My last few subs have been a little disappointing, so it's nice to have a victory this time around.

itzagoner

pop 1 Pops.

cpamike

Hey Jeff,

Those were worth the wait. Congrats!!!

Big80s

I appreciate it, Mike.

ThoseBackPages

Hows the centering on the PSA 9 Hull Topps RC?

Big80s

It's pretty much dead-on. I thought it had a good chance at a PSA 10. Let me know if you'd like to see a scan.

ThoseBackPages

<< <i>It's pretty much dead-on. I thought it had a good chance at a PSA 10. Let me know if you'd like to see a scan. >>



yea, id love to see a scan. that card is a PITA with centering

Big80s

<< <i> yea, id love to see a scan. that card is a PITA with centering >>



I'll try to get a scan up for you this weekend.

And on a side note - the Blyleven is no longer available

Big80s

<< <i>yea, id love to see a scan. that card is a PITA with centering >>



Per your request. It's not perfect, but the centering is pretty strong...

ThoseBackPages

Centering looks really good Jeff. hard to tell if there's a slight tilt or the card is scanned a little off.
time for a new scanner btw

Big80s

You're right about both the scanner and the tilt. I think a slight tilt kept this card out of a PSA 10 holder.

lwehlers

77topps look great. stargell is really nice.
