This one really had some sweet cards in my estimation. Will post some of the better ones. I'm not a '75 guy so if anyone has any opinions, would love to hear them. There were a smattering of fish eyes but pretty sharp all in all.

    With all these nice cards, why is it the Bench that's OC and PD? Oh cruel fate!

    I know, right?? But I will say there were plenty of commons in the rack as bad as Bench. Just posting the pick of the litter.

    One more batch to go...

    Judging by the cards you've posted, you've ripped all but the far section of two ** cards so hope you pull an Aaron or Reggie or Rose in that section!

    I think the Willie Davis is a very tough one to find centered that well.

    Rice looks very nice!! That card alone if it grades PSA 9 will put you in the black on this rack!

    You got some nice cards to send in, especially the Rice.................. Good luck with your sub.
  • NikklosNikklos Posts: 1,411 ✭✭✭
    Thanks guys! I'll keep you posted on the subs. Particularly interested in the Rice, those tough '75s and the '73 Cash.

    Devaluing my collection? I wouldn't have a collection if I didn't rip!

    Believe me, if I was a billionaire, you'd be seeing tobacco tins being ripped here!

    That Rice is a $500 card in PSA 9 grade. That will buy you 2 75 racks and that's not including any of the other cards.

    << <i>Hey bro, more power to ya! I just couldn't rip something that's gonna be worth triple the value in a few years, no matter what grade you get on that Rice! You got gralls man!!!!!!! >>



    You see common 75 racks rising to $800 in a few years? That would be nice to see indeed, LOL!

    That's a real nice rice
    I'm thinking it's an 8, but really cool to see one pulled.

    This is why Nikklos is one of my favorite posters here (he had me at the first '70 pack). I feel the exact same way.

    Great rip and good luck with your subs!
  • NikklosNikklos Posts: 1,411 ✭✭✭
    Hey thanks Porkins! I'll pick up another '70 pack once I recover from these last few rips!

    Poppage from the 1975 Rack Rip - think the grading is kind of tough on a few - don't see anything wrong on Davis. But pleased with my Rice!

    Very nice! I was puling for a 9 on the Reed and Davis for you. Those must have been very close.

    What was your initial reaction when you finally saw poppage and glanced at the Rice ?

  • NikklosNikklos Posts: 1,411 ✭✭✭


    << <i> What was your initial reaction when you finally saw poppage and glanced at the Rice ? >>



    It was a huge sigh of relief!





    << <i>Very nice! I was puling for a 9 on the Reed and Davis for you. Those must have been very close. >>



    Thanks! I have to take a real close look at the Davis when I get it back. I forget what the numbers are for the Reed but I really was hoping that was a gem too.

    As an aside, for those who saw the 1973 rack rip threads, Norm Cash and Sal Bando got 9s. Have to really scrutinize them too. So far, those racks were certainly not worth the price of admission!

  • SmokieSmokie Posts: 393 ✭✭✭
    It doesn't get any better than that. Rice and Zest are good ones to get in a 9 especially Rice.

    Congrats in the rice. You got me thinking I may sub some of mine again. But the 70 lead times are daunting.
