Ahhhh, couldn't resist opening the 2001 Topps Traded packs...nothing to speak of...Josh Hamilton and also a David Segui refractor. Don't know much about the set other than the Ichiro and Pujols.
Thanks again for putting this together and good luck to everyone!!
Since they are rarely requested cards I figured I would throw these out there...if anyone pulls 9-10 worthy of the following please let me know, I'd be interested!

I unfortunately did not receive mine today...gives me something to look forward to Monday
Got my stuff today. 2 '81 cellos, 2 '82 cello and one '78 OPC wax pack.
One of the 82 cellos has Dave Righetti on top (kinda cool for a Yankee fan). I opened the other 82 cello. Rggie Jackson All Star and Rod Carew in Action was the extent of the star power. Conditon of the '82s was very nice with good centering throughout. They are the loose wrapped variety. Commons showing on the other cellos.
I pulled a Elway rookie from my 2 racks.. that was pretty awesome.. not centered well but was worth the price of admission even though overall I will only make back 1/4 of what I paid the thrill of seeing the big star rookie is why we do what we do.
the 83 topps cellos really brought me back.. that was my main purchase when I was 10 yrs old,, 1st time I have ripped any since.. I think I will be back for more
Thanks for putting together the rip. I got 2 packs of each of the 80, 81, 82, 84, 85, and 86 football. 80 was terrible, no stars kinda warped cards. 81 and 82 nice packs with no star power. 84-86 was pretty good. Here's the best.

Reading these is awesome. BBCE is great. Giving me the fever again.
It is unfortunate that as a society we can't trust anyone to get old wax from but Steve. But it is also nice that Steve is around to offer these amazing packs.
Here's an idea. American Sports Pickers. Two buddies go on the road to look and buy ouststanding collections! Actually I think there would be a lot of people watch a show if Steve Hart had a camera follow him around to all his purchases and misses!

I bought two 1981 Topps FB wax packs and came up with nothing.
However, I also bought two 84 topps fb cello packs and did pull these.
I keep my two 1984 Topps FB rack packs sealed for now.

Congrats guys >>
Nope the Marino was about five or six cards down. It is just my crappy photo from my Iphone.
I was just surprised how well centered the back was and thought I would show that as well.

The only flaw on the card is being slightly O/C and in the top border there is a hint of black in the white border.
It is an 8.5 at least and probably a 9 in my opinion. Just my two cents.

I have yet to open any as I may wait till I'm back home but the 84 rack had me excited for a minute until I got a closer look! Still was fun to receive it.

2 86 cello football packs. Pulled Reggie White,William Perry and Walter Payton. Will try to scan latter. Perry possible 9 or 10. Does anybody know the vcp price on the Perry in 9 and 10?
Rats, I paid on Wednesday and still haven't gotten mine. It seems to take 1-2 days longer for BBCE packages to reach me than most people that pay the same day as I do for some reason. Silly USPS. Kind of worried that I'll be pulling a lot of commons because of all of the Marino/Elway packs that have already surfaced...
Still, I'm pumped that I am going to pull the lone '81 Topps Valenzuela RC, you just wait.
I got my packs today.. 1982-L.T. rookie 1985-Eric Dickerson and John Elway 1984 racks-Blue border Dickerson on front and blue border L.T.with Dickerson rookie on back Does anyone know what the blue border cards are? Are they only in racks, never seen them before.. Thanks for the fun rip, can't wait for the next one...Scott

85 Topps FB - Marino, Montana, Elway, Dorsett (2x), and more nicely centered commons.
84 Topps FB - Rickey Jackson RC... PSA 9 perhaps?
Still have 1 84 cello and the rack pack to go.
