Live rip has been ordered from BBCE-we have delivery!! LIVE RIP!!

yankeeno7 · May 16, 2008 12:20PM

Just for some $hits and giggles, I made a little order to do a live rip next week. On the block will be...
1- 1975 Topps Mini pack
1- 1977 Topps baseball pack
1- 1978 Topps baseball pack
1- 1978 Topps football pack
1- 2003 Topps All Time Fan Favorites box. Each box has 2 autos. Lots of good autos in this product.
1- 1997 Bowmans Best baseball box. I dont know why I ordered this one. I guess cuz there is always the chance of a Jeter auto.

I'll let everyone know when I get the package then we'll have a good time rippin!!!

grote15 · May 16, 2008 12:21PM

Good luck! Hope you pull a mint low pop 75 mini!

perkdog · May 16, 2008 12:21PM

Nice Barry! I hope you score some good cards!

HeritageAddict · May 16, 2008 12:33PM

Barry you aren't supposed to get us all excited until you actually have the cards in hand.....now I may have to order something. That Fan Favorites looks like it will make for a fun rip.

leftofdial · May 16, 2008 12:33PM

Best of Luck with the packs!

We look forward to seeing some pics, and you'll look forward to getting the mail around Tuesday or so..

Thanks in advance for the upcoming entertainment, and may the gum stain gods be kind

yankeeno7 · May 16, 2008 12:39PM

Thanks everyone! The two things Im looking forward to the most are the 75 minis and the 2003 topps fan favorites!

CDsNuts · May 16, 2008 1:19PM

I hope you pull a Jose Cruz Jr. or Travis Lee out of the 97 Bowman's Best. Those guys are can't miss prospects.

DES1984 · May 16, 2008 1:19PM

Good luck. Count me jealous. Stimulus check fun? I just paid bills with mine.

yankeeno7 · May 16, 2008 1:22PM

Thanks for the well wishes Lee! Can always count on you for wishing the best!

No, not the stimulus check. Just an itch to rip.

Stone193 · May 16, 2008 1:33PM

I'm looking forward to this!

It's always good entertainment.

Good luck - in advance!

yankeeno7 · May 19, 2008 7:59AM

Thanks for the well wishes!

I got my email today that the order has been shipped. Im probably looking at Wednesday??? Im ready to RRRIIIPPPPPPP!!!!!

yankeeno7 · May 21, 2008 6:46AM

No UPS today. Sorry to keep bumping this thread but if I dont, I'll be searching for it forever when I finally do get my shipment! I fully expect them to arrive tomorrow! Is it Thursday yet?

I was looking through the list of autos and the SPs in the 2003 Fan Favorites. There are lots of SPs and some really good names. The great thing about 2003 Fan Favorites is that there are TWO autos per box!

I hope my next bump here will be the rip!

leathtech · May 21, 2008 10:17AM

Let us know how the 75 mini's turn out thinking of that for the group order!

yankeeno7 · May 22, 2008 3:17AM

FINALLY! UPS came with the package! I know most probably are not around but sorry, I cant wait!

fattymacs · May 22, 2008 3:19AM

I'm ready, let em rip.

BunchOBull · May 22, 2008 3:19AM

I'll pop in and out just for you. Let's see a rip.

DavidPuddy · May 22, 2008 3:22AM

Let it RIP..

yankeeno7 · May 22, 2008 3:25AM

I'll do my 97 Bowman box first, then 78 Football, 78 Baseball, 77 Baseball, 75 Mini, then finally the 2003 All time fan favorites box

yankeeno7 · May 22, 2008 3:28AM

Im doing the bowman box now...I'll just scan the highlights

yankeeno7 · May 22, 2008 3:42AM

Well, no auto Derek Jeter but I like what I got....the refractors arent anything much but an atomic refractor Greg Maddux and a Best Cuts insert Cal Ripken Jr

CDsNuts · May 22, 2008 3:43AM

That Maddux atomic was a $100 card in 1997.

yankeeno7 · May 22, 2008 3:53AM

Well, 78 FB are nice but nothing that I find worthy of submission.

yankeeno7 · May 22, 2008 4:01AM

78 baseball similar results...

yankeeno7 · May 22, 2008 4:04AM

Eeek...things are going downhill quickly. NOTHING worthwhile in that pack....the one card not shown is Jose Morales. I sure hope that mini pack produces results!!

leathtech · May 22, 2008 4:09AM

those are some great looking commons!

yankeeno7 · May 22, 2008 4:15AM

Though I was hoping for any rookie hit, it wasnt a bad pack. Centering of course all over the place but the Carew is a submission and maybe even Northrup depending on the pop reports.

yankeeno7 · May 22, 2008 4:17AM

I'll be back with my all time fan favorites results!

yankeeno7 · May 22, 2008 4:44AM

Well, I kinda struck out on the fan favorites. Got me thinking of trying another box...we'll see. Anyway, here's the spoils...

yankeeno7 · May 22, 2008 4:45AM

And here is a reason why I love fan favorites so much -- cards like these in the base set...

mkg809 · May 22, 2008 5:09AM

Boobie sighting!

stevek · May 22, 2008 7:47AM

I sure ain't seen anybody post any winning rips lately from packs bought from BBCE. Nothing but losers galore, based on the price paid. Maybe it'll change...or maybe not?

crbatt · May 22, 2008 7:59AM

That Carew's nice!

BobaFett72 · May 22, 2008 8:01AM

how much per box on the fan favorites? thats a neat set; i like the base cards a lot.

yankeeno7 · May 22, 2008 9:23AM

FF box is 75....I think a good value

grote15 · May 22, 2008 9:45AM

Carew looks like a definite 8, with a shot at an 8.5. The Gorman Thomas card is actually better centered than the Northrup, IMO. Tough to find much when you buy a single pack from each year, but thanks for sharing!

Stingray · May 22, 2008 9:58AM

Love the look of the 77s, a great design IMO.

VitoCo1972 · May 22, 2008 10:03AM

I'd be interested in that 78 HR Leader card if you don't want it. Happy to trade.

magellan · May 22, 2008 10:09AM

Those Fan Favorites are great! I never realized that's what they were like. Real on card autos?

yankeeno7 · May 22, 2008 10:12AM

<< <i>I'd be interested in that 78 HR Leader card if you don't want it. Happy to trade. >>

I'll get back to you on that Vito. Need to see how it compares to the one in my set.

yankeeno7 · May 22, 2008 10:13AM

<< <i>Those Fan Favorites are great! I never realized that's what they were like. Real on card autos? >>

Yeah, they are on card autos...no stinky stickers!!

fur72 · May 22, 2008 10:19AM

Thanks for sharing! I have never seen the 1956 MVP card before. I love the Fan Favorites and the autos right on the cards. I have complete sets of 2004 and 2005 and some very nice autos. Sorry you didnt have better luck with the vintage.

zep33 · May 22, 2008 10:24AM

cool watching that rip.

I'm missing a few from the FF base set (got an almost complete set from a member here a while back)

missing these if you happened to pull any of them and want to work out a trade:

1, 16, 45, 49, 54, 113, 130, 137, 140

yankeeno7 · May 22, 2008 11:22AM

Zep,
Im probably missing the same amount. I just put them in order and I didnt get a duplicate in the box! Maybe their best coallation. I am soooo tempted in another box.

zep33 · May 22, 2008 11:33AM

no prob man.

and at 75 a box, I'm pretty tempted to pick up a box too.

skilow · May 22, 2008 1:46PM

Lambert & Dwight White in the same pack.

Sweet!

Stone193 · May 22, 2008 3:13PM

It was entertaining tho I know you would've been happier with a few good RCs but thanx for sharing.

I've always done pretty well with the Topps FF's! Good luck on the next box!

mike

baseballfan · May 22, 2008 10:53PM

those Fan Favorites are really cool!

if you want ot move the blair auto let me know, i can trade if possible

yankeeno7 · May 23, 2008 2:19AM

Actually, that Blair is a duplicate for me so its available for trade. Just shoot me a PM!
Barry

gemmintrarities · May 23, 2008 3:44AM

no prob man.

I was buying a lot of these when they had them at 60.00 per box. I guess they got wise as to why I was buying so many of them. They told me they were out of them, after I put an order in for more on their website, then they suddenly have them at a higher price. I don't mind raising the price, but don't try to pull one over on me.

fur72 · May 23, 2008 3:54AM

Did Topps make ATFF 2003 - 2005 or am i mistaken? I know I have 2 years and I swear they are 2004 and 2005. It would make sense since I only collected basketball to begin with when I got back in the game.
