my apologies to the OP and everyone else that was involved. I got jammed up with work and some personal stuff and pretty much was off line and not paying attention to emails. Congrats to the winners and thanks to those who took my spots
Thank you everyone for the words. I am about 75% done packing this up. Largentcollector had nice hits too...2 spots...hit Isiah Thomas and Kareem sticker.

I was surprised to see Kareem was the lowest pop sticker almost 200 less to the next closest.
I tried to follow this and was a little interested. Was this a buy-in for a lotto for a chance at the '86 card set? What was the buy-in amount so I'll know for future.

Original poster had a complete 1986 PSA 9 set. He sold 143 "slots" raffle-style to people for $79 each (one for each card in the set). Once all slots were full and everyone paid, he randomized the order so that a random card was matched up with each slot. You then got the card(s) which matched your slot(s).

Nique and Drexler if I'm reading this right, first time I've 'scored' on one of these. Many thanks to the OP for organizing a smooth break!
Thank you to everyone for the kind words! I hope to do another one of these sometime in 2018. I have a few other sets I can offer. 1987 fleer psa 10 and others.

Ring a ding ding... Jordan sticker! As long as slot 140 is it as I'd assume it'd be.
1975 Topps Registry Set "Scott's 75 Topps Set"
Pretty happy with Karl Malone and Xavier McDaniel.
Guess I couldn't have done worse. Well, better luck next time!
I think I got Kelly Tripuca and Alex English sticker. Ouch.

Successful card BST transactions with cbcnow, brogurt, gstarling, Bravesfan 007, and rajah 424.
Thanks for putting this together. It was a lot of fun even if the results for me say otherwise.

I don't think anyone can top Mike Gminski and Purvis Short.

Another big thanks to HGL. My "non-MJs" arrived safe and sound yesterday. A big effort by HGL and IMHO went off very smooth.
Side note, I have now done 2 86 Fleer random breaks and won 2 Orlando Blackman's.....lol
