    If anybody missed out and would like my box I will give you until tomorrow morning to let me know.

    I don't mind because I have bought a lot of star packs, if not I will Paypal Steve tomorrow morning.

    Just thought I would offer since I have bought a lot lately and it seemed like a popular break.

    Is Steve sending out the ones that paid, or do we have to wait until everyone pays?
  • cpamikecpamike Posts: 5,566 ✭✭✭
    Gregg, I believe Steve and the guys send them out when people pay as we've never had a situation that the boxes and/or packs weren't all paid for. And Toro I believe travels some and is known to be one of the last ones to pay so I wouldn't worry about him.

  • Sethro,

    If anyone drops out/doesn't pay, I'd be willing to step up and take one box.

    I'll pick up one as well if anyone backs out.
    From what I can tell, 707 is the DOLLAR STORE compared to deans_cards. For what that guy charges, if I ever bought anything from him I would expect it to be delivered to me in a frickin' limo.

    Wow! Are you keeping them sealed or are you going to rip them? Either way, show us some scans!

    I havn't ripped open the celophane yet. All packs will be opened when I feel the urge. For now they just got put away for a rainy day.
  • Did they sequence the 83' cellos in anyway? I was wondering if you could predict what cards you had based on what was showing on top?
  • EchoCanyonEchoCanyon Posts: 2,288 ✭✭✭


    << <i>Did they sequence the 83' cellos in anyway? I was wondering if you could predict what cards you had based on what was showing on top? >>



    Anyone know about a sequence? I'll be ripping these soon and will let you know about Boggs, Gwynn and Sandberg.

    Well, my package arrived today and just RIPPED it open.

    Sadly, it was a dud.

    No HOF/star cards on top.
    A mere 2 on the bottom -- Pete Rose and Mike Schmidt.

    EDITED for sequence:

    Ripped 4 packs, and hit Gwynn.

    On top was: Gary Woods (chc), Benny Ayala (bal), Ed Farmer (phi), Steve Braun (stl), Pirates Checklist, Jim Barr (sf), Manny Trillo record breaker, Steve Carlton supervet, Tug McGraw (phi), Tom Hausman (atl), TONY GWYNN, Greg Minton record breaker, Reggie Smith supervet, Steve Mura (stl), GUM

    A pack with Rose on back and a pack with Schmidt on back in same box I wouldn't necessarily call a dud.

    << <i>A pack with Rose on back and a pack with Schmidt on back in same box I wouldn't necessarily call a dud. >>



    Only 2 HOFers out of 48 slots with the plethora of HOFers -- 41 regular HOF cards, plus many more AllStar, Supervet, record breakers, League Leaders and team Checklists makes it dudish in my eyes. I can't imagine anyone who opens their box will have 2 or less star cards.

    Got mine today.

    I'll have to disappoint "CPA Mike" - no Ryno on top.

    But, I was pleasantly surprised to find a Ryno on the bottom:

  • Are you saying all you got was 1 Gwynn out of the Gwynn, Boggs, Sandberg trio of rookies?
  • Stone193Stone193 Posts: 24,438 ✭✭✭✭✭
    In keeping with the 83T theme...

    This is a 1/2 sheet proof from the Toppsvault with the Ryno RC.

    The competition for star RCs can be keen! I've had this for some time now.

    << <i>Are you saying all you got was 1 Gwynn out of the Gwynn, Boggs, Sandberg trio of rookies? >>



    Is that question to me?

    So far, I've ripped 16 packs. It's quite addicting and I MUST stop.

    Hit the Gwynn on the 4th one I opened. Hit a Boggs around the 10th one I opened (has a printer's mark). Boggs was behind Tony Perez in this pack, but I not behind Perez in another one.

    No Ryan, Rose, Brett, Seaver, Ripken, Henderson -- yet.

    Yes to many others -- haven't sorted them.

    I love this Mike. Thanks for sharing!!!

    If I am not mistaken Griffins has quite the uncut sheet collection. One day I'd like to pick up one from 1975.

    Ripped another 3 packs, hit Ryno.

    For what it's worth, sequence was:
    Ellis Valentine, Art Howe, Bob Welch, Chris Welsh. Mickey Hatcher, Rudy May, Joe Morgan, RYNO, Rich Dauer, George Frazier.

    (and as stated earlier, Boggs was behind Tony Perez, Kent Tekulve supervet in one, but NOT behind them on another pack).

    Opened the shrinkwrap (not the packs themselves) and got packs with Carlton and Eck on top and Sutter, Reggie Jackson and Nolan Ryan on back. Was very pleased with the packs and they were obviously not picked through as each pack was still slightly stuck to the pack underneath from sitting in the box all these years.

    Missed mine yesterday, but should be getting them today! Great way to start a weekend.

    I'm collecting packs with Steve Carlton on top, so if anyone gets any and is willing to sell or trade them, let me know. Thanks!

    Beware, it's like Lay's Potato Chips -- you can't have just one.

    I went thru 20 packs last night. IT WAS A BLAST.
