Better wax boxes for future increase? 83 vs 85

VintagemanEd

In talking about the percentage of future increase which do you like.....
83 Topps with its 3 hofers that are strong and solid or the lesser valued 85 Topps with the lower pop Clemens and McGwire that could have significant room to grow

I will go with 1985 Topps. Those were the first packs many like myself ever opened and there is a ton of potential nostalgia buyers who loved the crop of players from that set.

83 Topps is a personal favorite that is loaded with HOFers.

85 however has some real star power. I know from personal experience that the #30 Ripken is one of his hardest Basic Topps cards to grade in PSA 10, and they sell for a premium. At 1 point they were selling for like $400+

I like both. 85 is more exciting, but the steroid haze looms overhead and is still hard to shake. I give an edge to 83, but I think in time people forgive and forget the steroid issues. And I know, Clemens and McGuire just happened to be the ones caught, but it is what it is.

Somewhere out there, Frank Viola & Willie McGee are wondering what they did to annoy us.

Awesome Wall Street Quote!

You can get 2+ boxes for the price of 1 1983 box. If Clemens or McGwire ever make the HOF it would increase the interest in this box.
