    I love the idea too, I'm in. However, If I don't like my cards I want my money back image

    Yep...read that one too quick. Thanks for correcting me on that.

    I would be up for it

    In the last rip, I got a Pippen RC from the BKB, a Nicklaus RC from the Golf (BTW, I have ordered golf twice, 8 packs, and have 3 Nicklaus RC), nothing from the one pack of 81 FB and from 10 packs of the 83 Topps Ive opened so far, both Pete Rose cards and the Ryan, so overall, I have beaten the odds, but as they say, if there's a winner, there's gotta be a loser.
    IT IS ALWAYS CHEAPER TO NOT SELL ON EBAY
  • You guys are apperantly forgetting that we will get 10% off. I would be in for the rip gumby mentioned but I would eliminate the 85's. Key cards are rookies of tainted would have been HOF'ers. Plus, the 85's are still way overvalued baed on the possible pulls and return, not only at BBCE but every other site that sells unopened material. Why spend $135 on a 1985 Topps box when the two best cards together in PSA 10 do not equal the same resale value as a 1986 Topps Nolan Ryan in PSA 10 and the 86 boxes are only $13?
  • BTW, if you eliminate the 85's, I would be in for some of the extra packs too.
  • tainted or not, it would still be fun to pull rookies of Clemens, McGwire and Puckett (no taint!) lol

    The 1985 packs (all three combined) would be $7 of the total price. 1985 Donruss and Fleer are tough because of the colored borders, so any low pop 10's could easily make those worthwhile. I'm not making the calls here, so if we go this route, it's whatever the group decides. I'm just throwing an option out there.
  • I just do not see the value in any of the 85's regardless of the low pop commons. Who is going to send in a Harold Reynolds rookie hoping for a 10 when a PSA 9 would be worthless? As far as the Topps, I have a Clemens rookie that I am almost positive is a PSA 10 but I still refuse to send it in because the value isn't worth the effort or the risk of the submission fees.
  • He is also talking about the 84 Topps, like I stated in my original post.
  • hey can anyone get in on these rips?
  • Good Day,
    I am Re-instated and after that have no further comment!!!!!!!!

    I am in for one of Gumby's Rip idea's.

  • << <i>hey can anyone get in on these rips? >>



    Not with a name like weazle! JK, every one is welcome.
  • After a little private chat with gumby, here is how it would work out. Prices are per pack but each person would get one pack. This also includes the 10% discount with total cost at bottom:

    1977 OPC - $10.78
    1978 Topps - $14.38
    1979 Topps - $9
    1980 Topps - $7.5
    1981 Donruss - $1.13
    1981 Fleer - $1
    1981 Topps - $2.25
    1982 Donruss - $1.88
    1982 Fleer - $1.88
    1982 Topps - $3.38
    1983 Donruss - $1.88
    1983 Fleer - $1.88
    1983 Topps - $3.38
    1984 Donruss - $4.75
    1984 Fleer - $1.88
    1984 Topps - $1.25
    1985 Donruss - $2.38
    1985 Fleer - $3.75
    1985 Topps - $3.38

    $77.71 + $7.15 shipping and insurance for a total of $84.86.

    My suggestion would be to limit this to two lots per person. There will be 12 packs of 1977 OPC left over that a few of us can pick up.
  • Good day,
    OK I am in for one (1) lot.
    Ripping fever has hit again, just ripped a 36 pack box of 1983 Football, Nothing to write home about. Have 4 packs of 1980/81 Basketball and 20 packs 1988 Basketball on the way!!!!! YeHah Rip Rip Rip!!!!!

    Why did I think of Blazing Saddles when I saw the title of this thread?

    I just scanned about 20 PSA graded cards to put on eBay to cover the cost of this rip.





    << <i>How about if I just buy the 12 opc extra packs from 1977? >>



    I do not agree because I would like an extra pack and I am sure there are others that would like a pack or two.
