    Don't worry, Largent isn't in there. Well, I hope not anyway.

    Lol. Good one Dpeck100. The reference slipped me the first time around.

    I promise no shower treatment here image It's goin' down - along with this pictured freakish Super Chrome pack that's been in a drawer for a decade.

    Largent would be hard to come by in this pack image Will take a Thomas any day though for that matter a Thomas in the Super Chrome would be cool too.

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    It still sits - had to. Needed to confirm if this was a Desert Storm, or Desert Shield pack. It's 50/50 out there on knowing if the set is known as Desert Storm or Desert Shield - that is bad - we all should know and the folks there would be VERY upset with us if we confused things.



    anyway opening this 150 friggin' dollar pack NOW and wanting a centered Griffey or R Johnson, or Nolan Ryan or the Steve Lyons card where he is pulling his pants down image

    Noooooo. I don't collect unopened because I have zero will power but that bbce sealed pack was one that I wanted to add to my collection. Good luck on the rip

    Hey- anyone with me on this - I have actually gone back in to the convenience store the next day after a Powerball drawing and asked for a refund due to my ticket being defective. It freaks the clerk out - hahaha

    Any experts on this product see anything or is it as bad as it seems ?


    If I didn't already drive a Nissan, I would not ever buy one based on that commercial with that annoying chick 'driving her car up on a train blah blah'. I don't base what I buy off commercials but I do base what I don't on them.
  • StingrayStingray Posts: 8,843 ✭✭✭
    You didn't get the Steve Lyons one with him pulling down his pants at first base!!
  • eagles33eagles33 Posts: 2,684 ✭✭✭
    I think it's just bad luck. A few people have posted results from bbce group rips and pulled the chipper and Ryan.

    I would still submit every one of those cards. At least place them in a card saver because every card has a decent value to them.

    Really not THAT bad. Centering can be awful on these things and yours are kicking some 9-10 action, so many are likely worth grading.

    The above 8 are not going to be sent in - if anyone here wants them please PM. I am still in the situation where if a card is not going to be sent in for grading - it needs to be washed, or some other vulgar card torture, unless someone claims them. image Excuse the clipped scan - and the Parrett/Ventura cards were the end cards.
