Anyone open any packs from the 1980 case break?

Looks as if the other thread was put to a halt but just curious if anyone is opening.

    I was going to ask the same thing. 40 boxes and no rippage? can't believe it. I believe Nikklos was going to crack his. Mine's staying sealed but I always enjoy living vicariously through other people's carnage. image

    Better to rip a non FASC box considering the premium and how tough it is to find those vs non FASC.

    Mine is staying shut, put back in the shipping box with bubble wrap, and will stay there for about a decade or so. Might add to it when the opportunity presents itself.

    What we should have done is bought one between 36 of us...1 pack each rip fest, 1 at a time with pics...that would have been cool. I might rip my non fasc but I really should sell it as I build up more dough for another mick.

    I agree Tim.

    They have boxes for sale right now.

    And, I'm sure there will be more after the "find?"

    Mine is being added to my 80's FASC wax box run.....2 down (80 and 84) / 8 to go.

    Hoping one day Steve/Reed clean out my house, announce the horde they found, and pay my long term care bills.

    One can dream right?

    Same could happen with a non FASC box provided it hasn't been cherrypicked. I found my Henderson pack that way.

    Hadn't even thought of this. Decent chance there's 2 Henderson packs out there. If there's one thing I enjoy, it's wax packs with HOFer rookies showing.

    Tim, you can't just throw something like that out there and not share a pic!

    I would also be interested to see the centering on the two cases

    George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

    I'd love to group rip the 86 Topps Football wax case BBCE is selling.

    Where do you see that? They had one a few months ago that we bought, but I don't see another one listed.

    Here you go, Arthur. Actually, I just checked my notes and this pack was taken from a 1980 wax tray, not a wax box. IIRC, the tray had a large tear, so I decided to open it and pull the packs for my raw collection. I also pulled a 78 pack from a tray that had a Murray RC on back, as well.

    Love that Henderson pack.

    George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

  • Someone said they were going to rip their box. I remember someone opened their box to show the packs and man....they were beautiful! Unless you got money to burn maybe ripping this box isn't a good idea cause there in no guarantee that you'll even get a Henderson! Buying a box then packing it out amongst the group would be better with way less risk. Maybe something that could be considered on the next break!
