<< <i>Nice Ryan HL. I received my 6-packs today. I may only open one and keep/sell the other 5. If I rip, I'll post the results. >>
I only opened one of the packs I received from BBCE and the cards were not nearly as nice as the cards from this break. I agree most should be left unopened.
Dave, thanks for the rip! The condition of the packs were immaculate, just wish the Brett was from your packs! No star power in the four I opened but I have about 10 gradeable centered minis. I did get a Brock record breaker in 9ish condition.
So, when I pulled that Ryan, I knew it was a killer. I scoured over it. I looked at it with a magnifying glass. I checked it with a loupe. I have at least one PSA10 that looks worse. I rejoined PSA and sent it in knowing it had a really good shot at a 9. It arrived there on 12/06/2011. No poppage before the dreaded system maintenance. It was killing me. Constantly checking. Constantly refreshing. Nothing. Today it still says, "Your order is still being processed." The status has been updated with a ship date of 12/15/2011. I'm going bonkers.

I know, but it is not.
If it does not come back a 9 (or better), I'll have it buried next to me in a grave marked "unknown."

OK, this is what I have been talking about. A 10 on this card would not have shocked me. Thanks for the chance to take part in this rip, Dave. I'll scan it when it arrives.

Crack and resub! Just kidding, monster grade on the Ryan. Congrats!
One of the board members here was nice enough to send me some '75 mini wrappers and OPC. I dont recall the members name but wanted to share this with him / everyone.

Yes, they were very nice cards. I have 10 (out of 2 packs) at PSA now waiting for poppage.
Love those minis, always up for a couple of packs.
Hope everyone has a great couple of weeks.
