Just for fun I'm going to post scans of some of my cool wacky items here from time to time. Everyone else who collects wackys is encouraged to do the same!

I remember those wackys well as a kid.
Do you just collect unopened packs?

Thanks! Unopened packs are my primary interest. I also enjoy working to upgrade my series 1-16 wackys, which is harder to do than with sports cards for many reasons.

<< <i>Are those boxes full??? >>
No. I used to own several full boxes. Finally I decided it was way too much cash to have wrapped up, especially since I already had a very complete unopened pack collection. I sold the two really valuable boxes I had, partly to finance a purchase of some of the highest grade empty display boxes in existence (these are two of them). With many of the less expensive boxes, I kept the nice display boxes and sold off the packs over the years. The 6th series packs I now have comprise the contents of the last full box I had kept.
By the way, topcat, I sent you a private message, just in case you didn't notice it.....
(and a bump to keep this thread on the front page, where it belongs!!!!!)
<< <i>Any chance of a 10 on this one? I just can't see anything wrong with it!!
Thanks for the bump! As coincidence would have it, I had a submission pop this week. And the verdict is...

<< <i>Sweet! Let's see the rest of the submission. >>
Here's all the 1st series stuff. Needless to say I was pleased!

<< <i>Wow! Jackpot! Where did those puppies come from???? >>
This was the portion of my keeper set that I thought would do well. Actually, though, 16 of the 19 did come from the same source. I bought a 1st series set in 2005 at a comic book show for $200. I felt bad because the seller had gotten the price from NSU (the set was really worth around $600 in high grade at the time). They were clearly opened and put away untouched way back when. A few had a corner ding, and unfortunately some near the end of the checklist suffered from tilt/diamond cut, including Paul Maul and Band-Ache.
I actually picked up a 16th series set for $100 at the same show five years earlier!
<< <i>Mike - any chance of a PSA 9 on this one, or is the vertical centering insufficient?
More happy poppage!
