    I think it was Neil. How did you make out on that box???
  • It was Neil (thedutymon).
  • Evening,
    No there was nothing exciting, (Except for me getting to go through them), but there was 169 cards and so far I have made off my investment of about $195.00 bucks, about $175.00. I am not going to get rich but when it is all said and done, probably $275-$300 total. The Fleer 1960 BB Greatest were the Deal maker, those 30 cards made most of the money, a couple sold for in the $6-8 dollar range, and the 1960 Topps as well.
    I still have the rest 60-80 cards in my store and I'll probably get another $50-75.00 off those, so when it is all said and done...$300.00 So what, the fun was, it wasn't a total scam, and there were some fairly nice cards and I got my money back.
    And I'll do it again just because...........................!!!!

    That is the reason I always do it. Even if I would have bought it and lost $50, the fun of searching would have been worth the risk and loss.

    good job...
    harmless entertainment.. nothing lost.. and might make enough to half finance the next gamble

    A 54% return on investment. I would take that ANYDAY!!! Beats what you can make on stocks in a short period of time.
