Anybody Up For A Mid-Eighties BB/FB Group Rip - Narrowed Down Choices...See Last Page

Guys,

I know we are a month from the National but thought that we might want to do a mid-eighties group rip for the people that were not going to the National and for anyone who is hooked on the eighties. Steve just posted up a bunch of un-opened baseball cello and rack cases. The rack cases are around 72 racks......typically 3 boxes. We could sell 1 box and sell the other two by the rack. Below is a list I have put together. Reply back to this thread if you are interested and for what so I can gauge interest.

1981 Topps Cello Case - 16 boxes @ $95.63/box
1981 Topps Cello Box - 24 packs @ $4.13/pack
1981 Topps Grocery Rack Case = 1 box @ $180/box and 48 racks @ $7.50/rack
1982 Fleer Wax Case = 20 boxes @ $58.50/box
1982 Topps Cello Case = 16 boxes @ $123.75/box
1982 Topps Cello Box = 24 packs @ $5.63/pack
1982 Topps Rack Grocery Case = 192 racks @ $11.25/rack
1983 Fleer Wax Case = 20 boxes @ $63/box
1983 Topps Cello Box = 24 packs @ $5.25/pack
1984 Topps Rack Case = 1 box @ $75.12 and 48 packs @ $3.13/rack
1985 Donruss Rack Case = 1 box @ $147.12 and 48 packs @ $6.13/rack
1985 Topps Rack Case = 1 box @ $120 and 48 packs @ $5/rack

Let me know what you think.

    I surfed through the new stuff and noticed early 80s football cello boxes available. 1981 football boxes fresh from case being the newest at about $20 a pack w/discount. Getting away from the 80's stuff, there is also a 1998 SP Authentic Football Box at about $25 a pack with the discount.

    Would love to do some 81 Football Cellos too...?

    With the baseball I'd probably get some 81 Topps, 82 Fleer and 83 Topps

    OK guys, how about we bust this:

    1981 Topps BB Cello Case - 16 boxes @ $95.63/box
    1981 Topps BB Cello Box - 24 packs @ $4.13/pack
    1982 Topps BB Cello Case = 16 boxes @ $123.75/box
    1982 Topps BB Cello Box = 24 packs @ $5.63/pack
    1983 Topps BB Cello Box = 24 packs @ $5.25/pack
    1984 Topps BB Rack Case = 72 packs @ $3.13/rack
    1985 Donruss BB Rack Case = 72 packs @ $6.13/rack
    1985 Topps BB Rack Case = 72 packs @ $5/rack
    1981 Topps FB Cello Box = 24 packs @ $20.63/pack
    1998 SP Authentic FB Box = 24 packs @ $24.38/pack

    We can sell one box of the 84/85 topps and 85 donruss racks to the first person who says "I will take it" and then sell the remainder as single racks. The reason I am saying to do this is because there are alot of racks. If everyone thinks this is a bad idea and would rather sell all the racks as singles, then let me know. I will e-mail Steve to reserve and try and go live tonight. If there is a big demand for anything else, please let me know and we can add.

    OK. Heard back from Steve and we are a go. He already sold out of the 85 Topps rack case so I am going to replace with a 85 Fleer cello box. Here is what we will be ripping:

    1981 Topps BB Cello Case - 16 boxes @ $95.63/box
    1981 Topps BB Cello Box - 24 packs @ $4.13/pack
    1982 Topps BB Cello Case = 16 boxes @ $123.75/box
    1982 Topps BB Cello Box = 24 packs @ $5.63/pack
    1983 Topps BB Cello Box = 24 packs @ $5.25/pack
    1984 Topps BB Rack Case = 72 packs @ $3.13/rack
    1985 Donruss BB Rack Case = 72 packs @ $6.13/rack
    1985 Fleer Cello Box - 24 packs @ $4.13/pack
    1981 Topps FB Cello Box = 24 packs @ $20.63/pack
    1998 SP Authentic FB Box = 24 packs @ $24.38/pack

    After hearing from a few guys, lets starting selling the racks individually. After the 96 hour mark, you can take as many as you want.

    We will start the reserving at 9:00 PM EST TONIGHT. Please do not respond to this thread with reservations. I will start a new one at 9:00.

    I'll be in for some Topps Baseball cellos and racks.

    Wasn't sure how quick this was going to happen,
    since I'm moving in a couple of months and didn't
    want to take a chance of these getting lost in
    the mail.

    It looks like I'll have plenty of time to get 'em
    though, so I'm in!!

    2 packs of 1998 SP Authentic Football

    Mark, please confirm I am doing my requests correctly. Thanks for arranging for this rip.

    Dty, we have to confirm BBCE/ Steve still has the boxes before we start the "official" thread. As you can see in the forum, we did that and missed out on some of the rack cases. BBCE stuff sells rather quickly on the website and as you can see on the official thread, quickly on the forum. I was hoping for that 85 box but alas, I missed the boat.
  • DtyDty Posts: 310 ✭✭

    Thanks for the heads up. Being rather new, this is pretty cool. I understand that BBCE stuff is in hot demand.
    I guess I will look for the rack boxes another day.
    Thanks.

    I didn't want to bog down the Official Thread but would anyone be interested in adding(assuming Mark and BBCE is cool with it) BB2001 Topps Traded&Rookies or BB1992 Bowman Jumbo to the rip? The price per pack is under $8 per after discount. If not, maybe we can add it to the next one, after the National of course!

    I wouldnt mind some more football? Could we even put in orders for boxes of say 1988 football to get on the order?
