i have opened 75 minis from steve before. the gum card is ruined and the bottom card has tons of wax. i have never had a bottom card be worthy of trying to remove the wax so i dont know how that goes. i am always amazed how well the other cards have been preserved over time. nice corners. some oc's . some miscuts here and there. i never got a lynn rookie so i hope things go better this time.

TZAHL,
You asked:
1) "Would someone be willing to submit for me to PSA"(?)
Of course! I'd be happy to help you out there.
2) "...is anyone considering getting their packs graded and just holding onto them?"
Yup. I'm considering this option as perhaps some others are considering grading just one or two packs.
3) "Will PSA grade packs any time soon?"
Per the PSA website, "Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA) will authenticate and grade unopened packs of sports and non-sports trading cards beginning later this summer." Here is a link to the grading of packs by PSA.
arch i didnt think we were gonna make it, but now we are so close ...i think you better keep your idea for next time . zef is running a pretty good show here. i bet the last 60 packs go real fast

Another question (sorry.....I didn't start collecting til 86). What is the market like on these? There is Brett, Yount, Lynn....who else? Why are these so popular? Does somebody have a big stash of these that hasn't been let out of the 'storage shed' yet?

Ryan, Schmidt, Reggie, Seaver, Carlton, Gary Carter RC, Keith Hernandez RC, etc etc. 1975 is a popular year because of its player selection, rookie selection, and design. For many years the minis were considered more scarce because they were a test issue but anymore they seem to generally command the same dollar amounts as the regular size '75s.
I am exhausted so I am going to have to post payment details tomorrow. Steve Hart is figuring out the actual shipping for all the different sized lots. I'll post those prices as well as the total amount, including Paypal if thts what you want to do, for anything greater than 6 pack lots.
I can't believe we did it. Now getting everyones money may be the tougher part. If anyone knows they cannot pay soon, please let us know and I am sure someone will jump on your 6 packs.
For those that bought a 6 card lot, you can Paypal me to zef204@gmail.com for $259. If you want to send a check, please make it a Money order and e-mail me at the address above.
INCLUDE YOUR CU IDs ON ANY E-MAIL OR PAYMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is awesome! I just got done watching '61*' and then came back to my computer to see we got this done. Can't wait to get the box and see if there are any Mantle/Maris MVP cards in there.
I'm have to say that I'm really surprised you guys were able to pull this off. It's going to be amazing to watch the rips. Zef, be sure to take a LOT of pictures of the case being cracked. Heck, take a video camera and upload it to youtube.
I would prefer Paypal but I totally understand f you want to send a MO. Since there are only 49 guys, hopefully it won't be too tough to get everything timely.
Paypal for 6 packs is $259
Money Order is $251. ---- e-mail me and I'll send you my addy.
I appologize to the guys with multiple lots or full boxes, but I am waitng on Steve Hart for the shipping total on those. He always is quick on responding so I am sure I'll hear from him soon.
Heya zef, glad we got it done!!! For some reason I thought you preferred a MO, but I see you said now PayPal is preferable, so that's what I'll send you later today. PM you in a sec.
<< <i>Heya zef, glad we got it done!!! For some reason I thought you preferred a MO, but I see you said now PayPal is preferable, so that's what I'll send you later today. PM you in a sec. >>
At first I thought MO only, but was QUICKLY talked out of that.
Paypal is the simplest as long as all of you don't mind covering your own fees.
sent $518 for 12 packs. If you make some on the shipping that's fine. appreciate the effort. Also, I didn't include my name on the board, but greg starling = gstarling shouldn't be too hard to figure.

Yeah, I got that one right away!
Thats no problem on the double up. If you guys want to multiply the $259 per lot out, I'm sure thats fine. If you want to wait for actual shipping I'll have that soon.
Congrats guys! If someone backs out or cannot pay, I'll pick up some of the slack
So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts
