I recently asked Steve Hart to assemble a four-sport (BB, BK, FB, HK) assortment of packs/boxes from the 1970's and 1980's for $1000. I just sent him a check and asked him to get an assortment of packs and boxes.
I was afraid that I would get nothing but 89 Topps Baseball and similar items.
What I got was
Baseball: Assortment of packs from 1977-1980, + a 1982 Topps Wax Box.
Basketball: A couple of wax packs from 1977, 1978, + one 1980-81 Wax pack.
Football: 1975 Cello Pack, a few packs from the late 70's + a few packs from 1984, 1986 Topps, 2 packs of 1989 score, plus a 1980 Rack Box.
Hockey: 2 packs of 1979-80 Topps, 2 packs of 1984-85 OPC, a couple of Topps packs from the 1988-89 and 1985-86 seasons.
I will start ripping over the weekend.

Key Cards:
Baseball: 1977 George Brett Topps #580
: 1982 Bonner/Ripken/Schneider Topps #21
Basketball:1978 Dennis Johnson Topps #78
: 1980 Bird/Erving/Johnson Topps #34/174/139
Football: 1980 Walter Payton (x3) Topps #160
1980 Ottis Anderson Topps #170
1980 Phil Simms (x3) Topps #225
Hockey: 1988 Brett Hull Topps #66
Plus lots of semi-key rookies and superstars. Overall, I was very happy with the box/pack selection by BBCE and by the cards themselves. None of the key/semi-key cards had the wax/gum stains, though some had minor surface or centering problems. I got 2 of the cards I always wanted to pull but never have -- the 1980 Bird/Erving/Johnson RC and the Cal Ripken RC. So, overall, I was very happy with the results.
<< <i>Yea but what if ya open those 70's packs and the cards have pinholes?
I'm amazed you didn't say it was a scam run by BBCE.

Here's a hint for ya - might be something suspicious at my post #4043 - check it out. LOL
<< <i>Ping - Ya signed off? No luck huh bad boy? >>
Well, maybe you'll have better luck at Pokerstars.
Here's a poker tip for ya - if ya got a 7 high hand and someone goes all-in, it's usually a good idea to fold.
You're welcome.
<< <i>Both have minor surface dots along the edges >>
Very common on the Bird/Magic RC.

The other dope chimes in. LOL
Perhaps he didn't note the smiley face, wink, wink after your post. It is easy to sometimes overlook an emoticon. It is far more difficult to overlook the obsessive actions of others that demand answers and insult those that may have made a mistake.
Hopefully all is well in YOUR perfect world.

come on...let's hear your usual dopey insults...we're all anxiously waiting little boy.
That being said, (and understood throughout the hobby) anyone who would think that an unopened pack from the 70s that was sold by Steve Hart might contain cards that have pinholes in them is the biggest dope of all, and that is not even debatable. Case closed.
Edited for spelling.

I bet your family considers you very special. Now shuddap and apologize to Niel.
<< <i>When Steve Hart at Baseball Card Exchange sells unopened packs through eBay or his website, you can rest assured that he has examined the pack, and deemed it to be authentic and unopened.

Yea, I've got to do that as well....and you know like those in Sports Talk know, I'm just bustin' chops....I've always said that I've never met a fellow card collector who I didn't like and yes that even includes Nam...even though I know the feeling isn't mutual and that's okay...I understand my views on online poker and other things p* some people off...but I ain't gonna change.
