i have this here at least to open image I REALLY wanted one of those 1976 boxes so thanks to the team here who put that together In honor of losing out on that box this box gets opened


anyone have the list of the cards without many 9 or 10s so I don't have to scroll back and forth though the pop report while going though this ? going for the stars of course, along with Henderson 2nd year, Raines and Fernando.

    picking off the ends of the box and things look ok I don't know why vending gets a bad rap still compared to wax cellos racks it's all the same stuff and vending don't have the gum or wax stained cards pretty much averages out if the vending box hasn't been kicked around

    am doing the painstaking pop search for each card and this will take a month with time available i just don't have the patience ! pulling out the cards with possibility either star or cards showing low on pop that have a chance at high grade a few more here

    Did you put some in Card Savers so they will float when you throw them in the pool? image

    Snorto~
  • ThenugentThenugent Posts: 196
    snorto Yes ! I would gladly send some of the cards in card savers to you for floating in the pool

    ya know, while steadily going this box and scrolling up and down in the pop report what I realized is if some of these low pop 9/10 off center cards were actually centered they could be worth some money.

    Anyone wanna gimme a shout out for a 'DUH' ?

    I've always liked that Mets rookies card. No HOFers but three guys who had notable careers.

  • ThenugentThenugent Posts: 196
    are these guys all toast and no chance at anything past an 8 due to the top to bottom centering ? I hate modern 8's

    this one though looks like a 10 sheesh

    half the box now down

    Unfortunately, none of those look 10-worthy IMO, except the Bench. lol


    Thanks,

    some good ones the Schmidt is off center so would probably be a dreaded 8 but still nice card does anyone have something where you can measure the off centering of cards. like a template or such

    maybe next time for Mr Gibson there were no Dodgers/Fernando rookie cards in this box
