Aren't you in Cali? Are you having eggs, bacon and pinot noir? Dude, you're gonna end up with about 5 packages around Christmas if you don't close that browser...

On early 80's at least, it doesn't seem to be drying up. Early this morning I picked up 2 1980 OPC baseball 4 pack wax racks. I've personally never seen these before since I've been back in the hobby. I know production was limited that year due to a strike, but thought that was a cool find. If I only could find a nice wax box eventually...

Edited to ask how come this thread has pages in front of this one with no posts on them? I've never seen that before either lol. Lots of firsts today.

I'm wondering if all the blank pages are missing posts from deleted accounts?
I saw the 1980 OPC wax racks and was ready to buy...
...except last time he had them they were $75 cheaper and I wasn't prepared for that much of a hike. However, yes -- they are mildly rare from what I can tell.
I've picked up a couple things and filled a few holes in my 80s unopened stash the past day or two (and duplicated where there weren't holes -- oh well).

Wow, that's quite an increase. Has it been awhile since any of these have come up for sale? I haven't seen these come up since I've been collecting this set, unless I haven't been paying close enough attention. I've been working on the set a little under a year now. I like how it has 4 wax packs as opposed to Topps' 3..I don't plan on ripping these though. I want to preserve them as is. I always seem to duplicate holes myself, especially when it comes to early 80's Topps. Can never seem to get enough of the stuff. For awhile, I wasn't ripping anything and just hoarding. Lately though, I'm starting to get the ripping urge and plan on doing a huge Christmas rip

From a football box point of view, the 1975 Topps Cello, 1981 Topps Rack, and 1984 Topps Rack sold only a few hours after they were posted. The 1986 Topps Rack Box is still there but I do not expect it to last much longer.
The pre-1978 Topps football boxes seem to sell almost immediately after being listed. I think the demand for these products is still very high.
How often does a pre-1960 pack come available and what are the prices right now with those packs. I've always been curious what a 48 Leaf pack would go for now - not that I would be able to afford it, but interested none the less.

I'd guess $25-30k. A '56 would be $20k these days, a '58 pretty close.

I buy from them often and will continue to do so, but I still don't understand how being the "authenticator" of a PSA graded pack then selling said pack, regardless of grade, is not a huge conflict of interest.
...and I do not believe they are drying up anytime soon.

** Working on the following sets-2013 Spectra Football Hall of Fame 50th Anniversary Autograph set, 2015 Spectra Football Illustrious Legends Autograph set, 2014-15 Hall of Fame Heroes autograph set. **
I was thinking that when they made that major modern purchase. They also are a major autograph seller now. I'm sure the older product is getting harder to find every day. It's possible they are also saving items for the National.

I think the BBCE's are missing out on a great opportunity. The above mentioned quote should be their slogan and pasted all oveur every Facebook, Twitter and sports card chat board across the globe.
This is a company which doesn't just set up at the National. They DOMINATE THE NATIONAL.
In the world of rhetorical commentary, again, the above referenced statement should be no worse than Top 3, just behind "economic downturn" and "Trump is a ________!"

Steve has stated that he does not submit his own packs to PSA for authentication/grading.
Originally posted by: Darin They haven't had any 75 baseball unopened for a long time. I know they have mini's, but I mean the regular size.
I bought a cello box of 1975 topps baseball (non minis) off them at the 2014 national. I am not sure how many cello boxes they had at that time. I think they had at least (1) box of cellos at the 2015 national as well. I haven't seen any on their website though.
Yeah, I've been looking for a regular 75 pack for quite awhile. I remember seeing one up on the website about a year ago, but it was gone by the time I went to buy it.
Fritsch has the 1975 cello market cornered. BBCE had 1 1975 wax box last year, but it went quickly. They also had a 1975 rack box last year that did not last long.
It may be time to dust off my unopened stuff. I don't have much before '81, but it would be fun to see what's going on with the '80s stuff. I still have a couple '84 Donruss boxes. Those have always been fun to track over the years...

<< <i>For those interested. BBCE finally has some 1987 Football from a sealed case available at $85 each. >>
"Sealed case." It's like a mating call.
Did you snag one?
you'll never be able to outrun a bad diet

Edited to ask how come this thread has pages in front of this one with no posts on them? I've never seen that before either lol. Lots of firsts today.
BBCEx sold a vending box BBCEx sealed for $550.
Probstein sold a 2 box lot BBCEx sealed for $787, 845 and 905.
I'm thinking the moral to the story? Don't sell 2 at a time?

random question but were pre 1970 wax boxes cellophane wrapped?
no. I am not sure when Topps started wrapping their wax boxes---but probably in the '90s

My dream box is an unopened, BBCE authenticated 75 topps baseball wax box.
Couldn't afford one right now, but when I get rich in the future that's what I start shopping for.
