My father has decided to sell his "VINTAGE" collection of unopened packs. He's getting ready to retire, and would rather have the money. I tried to talk him out of it, but no dice.
I'll give everyone a minute to sit down, before you view this list.
These boxes are all unopened, and purchased years ago. They've been sitting on a shelf for over 20 years.
12 Boxes of 1990 Donruss Baseball
2 Boxes of 1991 Donruss Series 1
2 Boxes of 1993 Donruss Series 1
He said no one could afford all 16 boxes, so if needed to sell them seperatly.
He's planning on buying a new car with the money...I hope he ment Hot Wheels.
I would like some advice from the "QUALITY PACK COLLECTORS" on the boards. What would be a fair price on these? BBCE wants $8 per box.
Help me out with what a reasonable asking price would be. I have not opened a pack since 1992.
PS- None of the packs have been sent to PSA or GAI for authentication.

<< <i>I get rid of them at $5 a box at shows or ask 25-50 cents a pack. >>
Their is only 1 problem with that idea. We never have shows any more. The last one I know of was 10 years ago, and it was a flop.
The nearest dealer I know of is 1-1 1/2 hours away. Around these parts dealers always sold cards at book price, no less (they had no problem paying 35-40% of book or less). Now their all gone. On line dealers and greed put an end to dealers around here.

I just hope these boxes hitting the market doesn't ruin the value of the sets.
BBCE, would love this kind of Quality.

My wife garage sales frequently and she sees people overpaying for this stuff all the time, people who think they are getting a good deal on a whole box of "vintage" cards.
She sometimes calls me when she sees cards and I arrive to invariably see 1989T vending boxes for $20 apiece. Funny thing is they usually sell.
I'm going to offer these gems to the board first. I know how many people on here enjoys rippen junk wax.
Thanks for the ideas. I guess these might not bring the big bucks that he thought they would.

List it on your local Craigslist.
