a) PSA (who else)
b) possibly
My biggest beef is the travel a pack has to take. I've had packs in my possession since 1975. A few years ago I sent them to PSA to have them slabbed. The packs traveled from me (NY) to PSA (CA), then PSA (CA) sends them to Steve in (IL). Steve says they were resealed and when I received them back (IL to CA to NY), they were opened. >>

I've probably purchased 30 packs from BBCE over the last 6 months and I haven't pulled 1. It would be sweet irony if I pull one in my 1 pack coming this time. >>
My first ever order from BBCE included 2 packs of 1981 topps (before I knew how standup Steve Hart was)... I pulled a sweet Montana rookie! I hope you do to!
I also pulled a Montana RC out of one of my first 1981 Topps Football group rips (out of four packs). It was slightly OC, graded an 8. Same rip, I pulled a Rice RC out of one of my two 1986 Topps packs.

Very nice. I first heard about BBCE in Bill Simmons article when he went to the National and bought stuff from him. I ordered 10 packs of '80 baseball thinking it would likely be garbage and probably searched. First pack I pulled a Henderson and I was sold. I haven't purchased older stuff anywhere else since.
Let's go everyone. Anyone who received packs already, let's see some scans!

Im not expecting mine today but if it did come, that would be a little nice surprise. For sure though, some of you guys have to be getting them today. Let errrr rip.
<< <i>Let's go everyone. Anyone who received packs already, let's see some scans! >>
I am anxiously awaiting mine. If I don't get them tonight, I am going to have to bust into my very modest unopened collection for my fix... I don't think I can collect unopened material since I can only keep it unopened for so long.
Received my FB pack run today, opened the 92 score and 82 topps pack. 82 pack was shredded in the back but, cards were all in great condition ( see pic)..
Here are my results from what I got from Steve. I ordered a football wax run, 2 1978 baseball packs, and a few extras. 1 '78 football wax pack and 3 '79 football wax packs. Below will be a few scans of the better cards and I will also list out what was pulled from each year 78 football pack- Steve Largent OC left to right, Ken Stabler 79 football packs-Had to get more since last time I hit a Campbell rookie, not so lucky this time... Donnie Shell RC(wax stain on front), Steelers Team Leaders Card, Jack Ham OC left to right, 80 football pack- Clay Matthews RC OC left to right 81 pack-not much to speak of 82 pack-Scan Below plus James Lofton IA, Jack Ham wax stain on front. 83 pack- Joe Montana Record Breaker 84 pack-Kellen Winslow, Marcus Allen 85 pack-Scan Below, Mike Singeltary 86 pack-Marcus Allen Record Breaker, Walter Payton IA 87 pack-not much here 89 pack-Ickey Woods RC!!! 89 Score Pack-Joe Montana/Jerry Rice Great Combos
First I will start of the scans with the 2 78 baseball packs. The scan below is all from one wax pack!!! The other pack had a Ray Knight Rookie Card in it.
85 pack had these... Can someone help me with the bv of the Elway sticker
Also I think the Dent is Nice!!! But check out the back. Is it still worth subbing???
86 pack had this
82 pack had this
Overall I am very please with the results... I think I did pretty well on these single packs even though I didnt hit one of the bigger rookies, I did hit some decent cards.
Received my football run today! Didn't open the 81, 82, 84, 85 & 86 packs. Wasn't going to open the 83 either, was going to sub that run on the pack special this month, but this pack had two worn-down-to-the-cards-inside corners... so I opened it along with the 80, 87, 88 Topps & 89 Score packs...
My decent pulls...
1980 Topps - Clay Matthews RC... every card in pack was pretty OC 1983 Topps - Tony Dorsett 1987 Topps - Lawrence Taylor 1988 Topps - Eric Dickerson 1989 Score - Deion Sanders RC & Michael Irvin RC
5 cards listed are probably all PSA 9 worthy... thus, not worth subbing, but decent enough to stash away for a few decades
*Edited to add the 80 Matthews, didn't realize that was his RC until reading a post above
Okay... boredom didn't last long... I convinced myself I saw enough flaws on some of the packs to make them not worthy of paying to have graded... So I opened the rest except the 86 pack...
1981 - Nothing to speak of 1982 - Nothing to speak of 1984 - Lawrence Taylor 1985 - Warren Moon RC (Pretty nice too, possible 9)

Here's the results of my 2 FB runs with an additional 2 '81 racks. Still haven't pulled a Montana yet... except back in '81
80 packs - Nothing, all were off centered 81 packs - Largent (oc), Simms, Fouts (oc), Harris, Dorsett, the racks were not as great as the ones we ripped last year from the case. 82 packs - No Stars, several nicely centered commons though 83 packs - Half were badly tilted, the other half were very nice! No major hits. 84 packs - Marino (oc), mostly all were off centered, many dinged corners as well. 85 packs - Long, Marino (oc) 86 packs - Dorsett (oc), Reed (oc), Payton RB 87 packs - Rice, not much else, nice condition cards though 89 Topps packs - not much here but most of the cards were stunning. 89 Score packs - Irvin, great condition cards, I my have to look into collecting this set!

The Dent was on the back of the pack, so it looks like it is wax from the wrapper....
Here are my packs from this Group un-Rip, thank you Mike and BBCE. Even with my magnifying glass and bright light bright light, I can't tell who is on front or back.
Got my (2) 76 BB cellos today. Not going to open but I think I may be done with un-opened. I am just so tired of getting commons on the front and the back. Seems like I can never get a break. All I get is Bobby Mitchell and an Orioles team card on the front
Bob Apodaca and some guy named Brett on the back............
Ok, I am not really done with un-opened. All this is does is fuel my passion.
I know it has been said before, this is the reason Steve gets our business. You know you are getting legitimate packs and if he makes a mistake, he fixes immediately.
Since I got the Brett, someone will be getting a pack with Yount on the back as well.

Nice Brett pull. Probably means I need to keep mine sealed now.
Looking for 66 and 69 OPC baseball 60's OPC packs 72 BB, 60's FB, 71FB, 73FB, 74FB, 75FB, 76FB, 78FB Rack Packs 72 and earlier BB cello

Wow, congrats! I guess that means someone else will be getting the Yount pack. Is the Brett usually centered on the front if it's centered on the back? If so, that would be a tough one to decide whether to open our not for most people. My guess is the corners would be dinged due to the tight wrap.
I would actually think it would be better left sealed. One open can be had for less than $20 *even in nice condition) but a sealed one, you ll get more bang for your buck because hard core brett collectors will pay nice for something like that - untouched. I know I would if I was a huge fan.
So is anyone else going to open theirs?? I wanna see some wrappers being torn apart. Unfortunately for me, I will have to wait till tomorrow seeing how I didnt get it today. Odd because I thought for sure today

Thanks.
Your probably right about the corners. Financially it makes sense to keep it sealed. Collecting wise it makes sense to keep sealed in my opinion. Not to many 76 cellos with Brett on the front or back vs how many raw ones are out there.
The UPS man stopped in front of my house today and brought a box to the neighbors. To rub salt in my wound I think he kicked up some of my flowers as he walked by. I guess I've gotta wait until tomorrow.

Absolute garbage in the BB cello and FB pack run. I definitely don't think the packs were reseal jobs b/c others have gotten good stuff, just luck of the draw, but it really sucks when I came out on the short end of the stick with every single pack. I doubt I got a dozen HOFers combined, much less anything approaching anything of value unless there is some common out there that's high dollar PSA 10. Again, just luck of the draw, but definitely the least fun I've ever had spending $110. The absolute worst and probably the worst pack ever was the 1980T Football which featured 2 each of 6 guys I truly had never heard of (granted I was 1 in 1980). Going to have to be burning a huge hole in my pocket to participate again.
The Last 84 Football pack I opened didn't have a wrapped piece of gum, so that kind of threw me. Which I could remember where I got that pack from. Probably Ebay. Was that the only year they used wrapped gum?

Sorry for the blank post, iPhone wouldn't give me an option to edit?
I got one hit out of my football run, I got the Aikman RC. The 1980 pack was by far the worst pack as far as quality and the 1982 I considered the best ad far as corners and centering.
