Opinions on 1990 Topps Kmart blister case

Hoosierguy · March 8, 2015 5:20AM

I have a 1990 Topps Kmart blister(batting leaders) case.The case has 36 packs with each pack containing 100 cards and 1 batting leaders card.I am wanting to sell but I am not sure the best way.#1 should I sell the case as is(it will be a pain to ship).#2 should I break open and sell individually.#3 break open and grade all the batting leaders cards.The pop report is very low on these and the blister packs are very rarely sold.I have never seen another case for sale.Your opinions would be appreciated.Thanks,Adam

I will say if you crack out the batting leaders that your odds on being profitable are low

Hold on to them for another 20 years..............they may be worth something then....or not...

PM sent. Is this too large to ship in a large flat rate box?

Its about 3 feet long and about a foot wide.When I bought it they sent it in its original box so its a little beat up but I think the packs are fine.

I'm not sure how much these would sell for per pack, but after seeing a Mattingly in PSA 10 sell for $122, the ripper in me would rip every pack and sub the Batting Leaders (if condition worthy). I'm a gambler though, so take my suggestion for what it's worth.

POP 1 of a popular player in an unpopular set that is not included in any master sets, no idea why someone paid that much. Cards also have high gloss fronts and tend to stick together.

All you have to do is own the graded card and also have a set on the master registry, and it is then very easy to request that the card be added to the set composition. Happens all the time. Presumably the buyer will be adding it to the master set composition.

You should also consider the possibility that since these are retail they are most likely early printings which mean they could contain the Frank Thomas NNOF.

I thought about the Thomas NNOF but I wasn't sure where they fell in the production order.

Thanks for all the responses I think I will go ahead and sell the sealed case.

Any ideas what these packs sell for?

These were sold a KMart stores and the 89 and 90 batting leader cards are tough to get in mint gem.
Not sure what the one card on top is sticking to but a nice couple of 10's would help your profit margin..

I resize mine before uploading to reduce the longer length to either: 600 pixels for individual cards or 800 pixels for larger items.
