Unopened pack collection

lsutigers1973 · September 11, 2008 11:51AM

One forum user who greatly assisted in my wax, rack and cello run I am trying to complete from 1973-1998, asked to see what I had so far. First, I am not wealthy and can not afford to buy some of the more expensive packs right now. Second, despite what many here think, I do have some self control regarding unopened packs. I usually buy two of everything so I can keep one and open one. Doesn't always work. Anyway, here is what I have that I have managed to refrain from opening. May not be quite as extravagant as some other users on here. But, I took the pics on my bed where my wife sleeps naked.

Nice Stuff!

Very cool...I'm not so good at keeping wax sealed. Currently I have one of every pack made in 1983 (pending receipt of the '83 OPC hockey pack from a board member). The others are already encased in a large top loader and sealed in team bags...kind of like my electric fence. They will soon be framed in a shaddow box.

Awesome!

Must be a problem with my browser, but despite staring hard at the screen wasn't able to see your wife in the picture

Nothing like a bed loaded with unopened packs, nice stuff. I couldn't see your wife either.

Bill,
If I ever use the bed where my Wife sleeps naked to take a picture of my unopened wax, well the moral of the story is, I won't be sleeping there, unless of course its with my Packs. And I will have to admit as much as I love Unopened Wax, it will never compare to Opened Wife..Naked!!!!!!

My wife went out tonight with some friends. So while she was gone I had some private time with my packs. It was a very special moment.

SidePocket · September 11, 2008 12:31PM

I say go ahead and rip everything.

MeteoriteGuy · September 11, 2008 12:33PM

Nice. I noticed the other day on eBay they have cheap thin plastic cases for wax packs now. Would not be cool as having them slabbed (but likely a lot cheaper...and a good pay out/coolness factor.

YER DIRTY

Bill,
Funny that your Wife is out, so is mine, she is at the once a month "Bunko" thing, the reason I have so much time for these threads right now. And I hope there is nothing your keeping from her and the use of your guy's bed with packs while she is gone. I have to be honest, when I get the chance on our bed, it usually involves Hustler, Busty, High Society and a few other things!!! Cards are not involved!!!!

I'm sorry this happened to you

sorry, couldn't resist!!!!

jswieton · September 11, 2008 1:25PM

very nice. I hope my pack collection can be like that one day. I think in the future the value of unopened packs will continue to rise faster then graded individule cards.

thehallmark · September 11, 2008 2:03PM

1991 Topps Traded came in packs??!?

Now you have to sell this stuff, right??

TheHun · September 11, 2008 10:21PM

boxes o' gold ... bed of pleasure

nice.

Hoopster · September 11, 2008 10:40PM

There is a never ending supply of unopened wax...they are just a wrapper and a stack of commons or sharp off centered cards away.

bman90278 · September 11, 2008 11:20PM

Very nice collection you have there, enjoy it and be proud of your dicipline! I had a collection that looked about a quarter of that size but I couldn't resist and ..................... ripped them all, but I did it a little at a time.

<< <i> But, I took the pics on my bed where my wife sleeps naked. >>

I'm bummed out now. I checked out your other photos and you don't have any pics of your wife sleeping naked... j/ki

did your wife catching you cheating with the packs in bed??? is this why the hobby has to go?

MBMiller25 · September 11, 2008 11:36PM

That is very cool, I think you inspired me to go out and acquire some packs of my all time favorite rips! Thanks for sharing those pictures!

That explains the stains in the bottom left corner

I'm quitting the hobby over this.
