Hopefully I Haven't Created a Monster :)

My first foray into getting pack graded. I am pretty pleased with the results.

2 1 27769818
GEM MINT 10 1985 Topps Football Cello Pack Cello Pack Joe Montana-Top Card

I could see myself getting hooked on graded packs now :)

I do have a good number of packs from back when I participated in the group buys, but not sure how many of those would 9 or 10....

    Question on the packs you had graded- did you have to ask them to print "Dan Marino Back Pack" on the label, or do they automatically print star names if they see it? Is there a place to put requests like that when submitting?

    I've got around 50 packs from BBCE group breaks from around 4-5 years ago still sitting here in the boxes they were shipped in and I'm contemplating having them encapsulated.

    sorry so late to respond jBrules...I did (and I'd guess others do as well)...I think as long as the player is noted or is a rookie they will put the player's name on the flip, regardless if that player is on the front or the back...

    seebelow -- I will get some pics taken of the packs and try to get them posted here..

    You must put down the player name you want attributed on the flip on the submission form. You can actually put any player name down~even if it's not a star player, and they will attribute it. If you don't include it on the submission form, they will not.

    Kep13, congrats on a great sub!
