in Trading Cards & Memorabilia Forum
First off I'd like to thank everyone that bought packs thanks for the help selling this out.

Now everyone can pay so we can see what we got. Good luck to everyone, but then again only 1 or 2 are going to get the hockey Whale.

Can everyone post when payment is sent so I can keep track.

Mike







This is my first time starting a BBCexchange rip so here are the details.

Steve has given us a 10% CU discount for a 1979 Topps Hockey box. the cost comes to $2340. Thanks as usual Steve!

The price for pack is $65/pack. This is a great price considering an untampered pack sells for $80-$100. There are 36 packs in a box

Shipping is $3.00 for 1-4 packs.

Insurance for 1 pack is $2.35, 2 packs is $2.90, 3 packs $2.90 and 4 packs $4.85

I've started a list of people who have told me they want a specific amount of packs. Anyone who isn't listed that has replied to the other thread I've sent private messages to confirm what you want. First come first served.

Don't pay Baseball Card Exchange until we sell out. You can call them and pay or easily send PAYPAL to bbcexchange@sprintmail.com

Thanks everyone. I hope I can update this

Mike

    I didn't realize Mike Gartner's card was in such high demand. image

    Hey Mike, you're doing a great job. Best of luck pulling those Gretzky cards to everyone!!! Remember, no hating on the Ranger pulls.

    I would do anything for a high grade Espo card. His card is one of the toughest to get in this year and he's in a Rangers Jersey.

    Seriously though, good luck to everyone and I'm looking forward to seeing the scans. I wish I didn't buy so much unopened lately, this is a great deal.

    Good Luck guys !! I collect OPC not Topps but another issue with unopened packs from this set is over the years the cards stick together if the packs where not stored in the proper temperature.
    That's why you see alot of Gretzky's and other cards with alot of white specs on the card. Hopefully this doesn't happen to these packs.
    Again, good luck guys !!! Would like to see some great pulls here !!
    Cheers, Steve

    Shoot I missed this. Prob better off since I would have bough 2 packs with intent on ripping one and slabbing one.... But I would just end up ripping both and have a stack psa 8 commons.

    Nothing better than a good old hockey box rip!!! I'm not a 79 Topps guy (I like the O-pee-chee from that year) but am still excited to see what you guys pull.

    Good luck to all and hope you get some great cards!

    Vegas just came out with the odds on who will pull the Gretzky.


    Captainthreeput and Jimrad are 3-1 favorites.
    MacrosB is a 7-1 shot.
    The rest of the field is 10-1.

    Good luck everyone !!!
