Group Case Break, we were able to get a 79 cello box. Will go live tonight, see page 3!

Ive had some PM's about another group pack rip. Let's get some suggestions going. I will be sure to write down the prices this time.

It is Football season, but there is a 76 Topps BB box and a 1979 Topps Cello box.

Reply with your thoughts, and let's give this thread a chance for everyone to give ideas. Would be looking to post a thread Monday night. That gives us a couple days to decide.

Also we should do another Group Pack submission. Maybe after the pack rip we can get one going. I have a bunch to be graded, and I know many of you do too.

I would like to do the 1978 Topps football cello. I believe it would be $17 a pack.

Sethro

I am definitely up for the BB 79 Cello box!

thedutymon

Afternoon,

I would be up for both 78 & 79 Football Cello and Wax of either year if Steve has any.

Neil

MBMiller25

Ide do at least one pack of 76, 78 and 79, probably two. Definitely in on group pack submission.

mknez

1972 Basketball!

You know I am in... What about a "Run" of football -- 1978 - 1986??

grote15

I'm in for anything 70s baseball!

LarryP

Of course my #1 vote is for the 1977 Topps Football Wax box. Also I would be interested in the 1978 FB Cellos too.

Thank you,
-Larry

Let's do a nice run of Football. I like the 78 to 86 idea, maybe the 77 box too, but we couldn't sell it out last time.

Then we can do a Baseball run 76 Wax, 79 Cello, what about OPC?

scmavl

Have you ever thought of buying a pack/cello from the 60's where we each buy a card or two in the pack? Example: I'll take the 4th card, Mike takes 7th, Grote takes 10th, etc BEFORE THE PACK IS OPENED where the complete rip from PSA holder crack to looking at all of the cards is done on video, then the individual cards are mailed by the ripper. BBCE has '61, '64, and '67 cellos I'd be interested in. This is about the only way I could afford to do a 60's rip. Also, top and bottom card should be slightly discounted, IMO.

Thoughts?

I was dream-building the other night and put this list together. Maybe this will help people choose from some of BBCE's inventory.

I have had that same thought.

Another option could be: the names of those involved in the rip would be drawn from a hat. The first name gets the first card, the second name gets the second card, and so on. Obviously there would need to be as many participants as cards in the pack or the total participants would have to be a number that would evenly divide into the number of cards in the pack. In the latter case the ripper would just cycle through the list until all cards are exhausted.

Would be a cool idea for a vending box too except it would take forever!

recbball

I'm up for a football run.

cpamike

Hello everyone. I'd be in for some 1976 BB wax and 1979 BB cellos!!!

nendee

Up for anything!!!

jbox

If it's baseball I'm likely in for a pack. '75 opc would be fun!

jbox

leathtech

how about a case break... it would be fun to get a full box of something.

grote15

Another vote for 75 OPC! Steve has a box up now and we've had some great cards come out of those boxes!

stangrider

+1 75 OPC

Actually, we didn't sell out the 1976 Football last time!!! I think the 77 is a new wax box.
-Larry

leadoff4

I vote for these 3:
76 BB
77 FB wax
78 FB cello

corvette1340

How about the case of '78 OPC? With discount it would come out to $281 per box. '82 Topps wax case - $135/box after discount.

You are correct.

grote15

I like Tommy's idea with regard to 78 OPC wax case!

1neatstuff

i would be in for the 1978 opc wax boxes also

wingsneck

I'd be up for more 76 baseball wax - I see BBCE has another box up on their website.

miconelegacy

So we could do a big break...

75 OPC Box
76 Topps Box
78 OPC Case
79 Topps Cello

That's good for Baseball, then we can do the run of Football 77 to 86.

This may take a week to sell out, but I think it's a great selection.

Mike

thedutymon

Morning,

I'm down for a One 1978 OPC Box and at least one, maybe two Football runs!

Neil

LarryP

On some of the years in Football, there are both wax and cello. Will we try to take both? Or pick one and if it sells out fast grab the other one? (ex '83 FB and '84 FB).

Thanks,
-Larry

thedutymon

MOrning,

I would Very Very much prefer Wax over Cello.

Neil

miconelegacy

I think we go wax first then cello where available.

We've been doing this for a few months now over on our Boxbreakers site. Actually Mike is participating as well. We have one upcoming that's an all OPC break (1966-1972) if you have interest?

Sounds good.

I know this is a little off topic, but I want to encourage anyone wanting to get in on modern case breaks, and vintage pack breaks to check out Chris's site. I hope you don't mind me using your first name.

Anyway I have participated in several off Chris's case and pack breaks. Recently he has been doing exactly what you are talking about with about 10 slots. This one coming up that is sold out consists of these packs.

1966 OPC Baseball Pack (can switch out for a 1967 OPC if folks prefer)
1970 OPC Baseball Pack
1971 OPC Baseball Pack
1972 OPC Baseball (3 Packs

Also Chris does a fantastic job with just about all the brands for Football Cases, and always gets breaks going on with the high end products...ie: 5 Star, Timeless Treasures, Inception, Exquisite, National Treasures etc, etc.

So I just wanted to support him and his case breaks for a moment. I have been participating in them for over a year now. So go check out his website if you have a chance and you can look through all the past breaks. Chris has been doing this for years, and has been featured in articles and interviews.

Back to our box/case break. Steve was flying out of town today, and I am emailing him with our list of products we want. Once I get confirmation I will start a new thread. This is going to be a very big break, our biggest yet that I have done. It may take a week to sell out as I had mentioned, so let's be patient.

I'll get more info as I recieve it.

Thanks,

Mike

The break is sold out? There is still one spot left on the site that I PM'd Charlie9 saying I'd take it a little while ago. Not sure who runs it though...

miconelegacy

Maybe there is one available, someone could have dropped out, I'm probably wrong. Chris/Charlie9 here, will get back to you. I'll email him now.

PM returned. I had taken two slots to fill us up but am willing to give up one of them to help grow the group. Thanks for the kind words Mike and sorry as I didn't mean to take the thread on a detour.

Stooge

I would be interested in 2 packs of the 1979 tops baseball and possibly a box break of any year of the topps Allen & Ginter since you haven't done any of those.

Is it possible to throw my request in now for what I want since I have to work 3PM til 1AM monday night?

Let me know...

Paul.

miconelegacy

Baseball:
1975 OPC Wax Box
1976 Topps Wax Box
1977 OPC Wax Box
1978 OPC Wax Case
1980 OPC Wax Box(I threw this in there, just let me know if you are not interested)

Football:
1977 Topps Wax Box
1978 Topps Cello Box
1981 Topps Wax Box
1982 Topps Wax Box
1983 Topps Wax Box
1984 Topps Wax Box
1984 Topps Cello Box(we could do this instead bc there are not any 85's)

Thanks,

Mike

MBMiller25

That sucks on the 79 cello box. In good, I will be in for a few packs.

miconelegacy

It does, the stuff just sells out so quick.

thedutymon

fternoon,

Sounds good, let me know after you post prices and I'll commit to exactly what I want.

Thanks
Neil

grote15

I stand corrected!

LarryP

I am confused, I just looked at the website and both of these 1979 boxes are there? Which one were you looking for?

1979 OPC Baseball Unopened Wax Box

1979 Topps Baseball Unopened Cello Box

Thanks,
-Larry

scmavl

Sorry guys, I bought the '79 cello box last night for myself. I didn't see that you were looking to break it. My apologies but I've already paid.

scmavl

Also, the break looks good. I'd be in for a few packs.

MBMiller25

I typically bite my tongue, but honestly that's a dick move. You posted after Mike brought up the 79 cello box being included in the break. Don't say you didn't know it was going to be apart of the rip.

How can you not know this was part of the group rip? You made the 11th post on this thread.
