    Have you considered opening a 1986 Fleer Basketball Wax Box? Or a 1952 Topps Baseball Wax pack? Your luck in opening sports cards is amazing!

    Hey Monte!! Those will likely never happen with me. It would be fun though!!!

    Absolutely Incredible! I'm just curious about the penny sleeves you use. Are they pre-cut sleeves or are you cutting the corners yourself?

    They are pre-cut. They are the bomb. Cards go in perfect every time.

    This is what I use.

    On the shellz. I checked the usual places before I let google direct me to cardshellz.com. I need those. I damage cards putting them in sleeves. I'm a disaster. Question for you.

    What size do you use for something like 54 topps? The 70mm x 101mm?

    I have been cutting corners for awhile now since my eyes have been consistently getting worse in my 50's.

    And then a 100 cards that are fairly nice especially for a set builder.

    And that's a wrap on this 71 Topps Hockey Vending RIP.

    what is this case?

    Is this how the expression came into being?

    Is this the correct penny sleave you are talking about:

    Question on the Shellz penny sleaves. I'm on their webpage and there are ample choices. Which specific one are you using? I see there's one for vintage but that appears to be for 1956 and before. Which one are you using for the 71 Hockey cards?

    Wow the centering, registration and corners are just beautiful in the whole box. Great rip!

    Based on what I see in the Robert Edwards auction I predict that this thread will have some pretty neat stuff coming in the near future.

    These are the Acrylic Boxes that I buy. They protect the card corners.

    I just sent a bunch of cards off for grading this week.

    I plan to rip more but have been up to my eyeballs with the new home build project and some other things.

    Does your new home have a break or rip room?

    Thanks! Have to admit, it's a great adrenaline rush opening a box of 48 year old cards from my early teen years! I 100% owe the inspiration to you.
