    Yes!

    Then it'd be mostly crickets on this forum. Think how much time you'd save! Well with only 2 posts, probably not too much.

    Message boards are great to allow anyone with an internet connection to pontificate what they'd do in any situation. The collector in me hopes some of these finds are real, all this negativity stems from jealousy...(disclaimer) in my opinion.

    Pathetic

    I just want a piece of the pie! BBCE, Fritsch,4SharpCorners,Heritage,JustCollect,Probstein,PWCC and apparently you could have the rest! Oh, what a d*ck response. :)

  • Thanks for the responses. I hope you all have had a blessed Christmas.

    My grandson says that he uncovered 2 1970 wax cases and will set aside one to be opened for everyone here.

    I will hand the event over to him and introduce you all to him soon.

    God bless.

    It looks like RIM is in the market for a nice bridge. And best of all, money is (practically, I assume) no object! I imagine Jenny's grandson will be in touch with you shortly. Have the bank wire all lined up to go. Don't wanna miss your chance!

    MLBfan- I about fell out of my chair with your picture.
    Jenny- 1970 Topps boxes are extremely desirable and are priced at a $20-25k per box to the right collector. Most true collectors of unopened boxes base their pricing on how many boxes exist. Seeing that you have 40 1970 Topps boxes the price just went down from 20-25 to $10K. Thanks for the heads up that these are out there. You saved me a ton of money.
    I am glad you are savvy enough to sell these all at once. You really know what you are doing.

  • Thank you for all of the suggestions. Yes truly these are valuable and since there has been so much interest in seeing these cases I thought it was time to share one with all of you. I have been blessed by my husband's foresight and feel comfortable enough with the past months of sales to try and continue his passion for collecting by sharing a 1970 case with you.

    I have arranged to have the boxes from the 1970 case sold starting April 2nd. You will have to be patient.

    I hope you all have a safe and happy New Year.

    God bless.

    i think 1970 had 24 boxes in a case and i think the case had red graphics on it.

    Wow, a 1971 case! First time I've seen that. Do you have anymore pics of it?

    Very excited for an introduction to your bo-hunk grandson and his friend. When you provide pics of the 1970 cases, can one of them be of the bo-hunk grappling with it?

    Kiss me once, shame on you.

    You will need to come visit us out here someday and take a little tour of the town. Being patient could make you an outpatient and being impatient could make you an inpatient. Or you could be patient like a Range Rover Mom with a barrel full of soccer brats. At the DMV. Better yet, become an L.A. Rams season ticket holder.

  • KendallCatKendallCat Posts: 2,999 ✭✭✭✭✭

    Hopefully your grandson got an IPhone for Christmas. That would increase the chances of a photo of anything you have mentioned will actually show up on the board. I have $100 to any charity that a legit photo of Bigfoot or the Loch Ness monster will show up before anything from "Miss" 867-5309. Why the mods have not shut this garbage down is beyond me.

    Jenny ... the purchase went very well. Thanks again.

    Also, thanks for introducing me to the Easter Bunny and Santa Clause. They were both very nice. HAHAHAHAHA

    I'm starting to think that Jenny may be legit. I asked her for a photo of her grandson and she replied with a photo just a week later. He appears to be a trustworthy young man that owns a card shop.

    Yes. This is accurate. They met on Plenty of Fish.

    In all fairness to Wes he showed up on my Facebook people you might know and he snagged a nice chick. Good for you Wes!

    It's Spece, not Spence. If you're going to be funny make sure your material is factually correct (and spelled correctly) before you post :)

    Alas, while a Jenny/Wes union would be met by the collection community with great joy, it is assuredly a specious proposal at best.

    I must say the Great Pumpkin and Wes Spece references had me chuckling pretty hard.

    What? No love for Rolo Tomassi as Jenny's grandson? Would Randall Stephens have worked better?

    If you're confused, think LA Confidential and Shawshank Redemption, respectively.

    My favorite is the name tag that says "Hello, my name is Jenny's Grandson". That's just gold. And the avatar of the little old lady for Jenny is classic

    I actually liked it too but not enough to overtake the Great Pumpkin.

    I just want to comment to say I got to comment on this thread. Saying you got to comment will be something you'll be able to tell your grandkids about. Lots of people are going to say " Oh yeah, I commented on the Jenny thread", but how many really did? Sort of like how 400,000 people attended the Ice Bowl.
