1981-82 topps hockey cut card case. East/west. What to look for. Best way to sell?

Counselor

Picked this up in a large purchase today and not very familiar with hockey cards or cut cases. Anything good in here? Possible Gretzky's? Best way to sell, as is or open and sell in lots?

Thanks

Awesome, glad to see that one! The West cards are the best as far as production, the East second, and the first series (not east or west) are double printed and not worth that much unless you get a 10. There are seemingly a million of the Gretzky cards out there. You may not even get your grading fees back on a Gem 10 Kurri, Bourque, Stastny, or a Mint 9 Gretzky. Focus on the RC's in the West & East. A Gem Mint 10 Larry Murphy or Dino are good stuff!

Thanks miwlvrn

Bummer it's not OPC. Gem Mint 10's of Gretzky, Dino and Murphy are the only singles that will make it worth grading. Probably worth more to sealed.

Any idea on value for case? Thanks

What is a Cut Card Case?

Bosox1976

This one contained only the east sheet, and shows what a cut card case looks like.

Since yours appears to have all the sheets, you might get 40-ish complete sets out of it - at maybe $25 to $30 each but it would take forever to sell 40 sets near ebay retail prices.

I'd guess $700? Just a guess. Nice find!

Denis Savard rookie is a good card too.

Be real sure it is truly East and West. The ones I have seen (and yes, sadly opened) have all been East only, which are purely a waste of time. There isn't a 10 you can get $15 for.
