    14 minutes to get the vending box out of the shipping box.

    Another 18 minutes to remove the bubble wrap.

    You're killing us Ron.

    Nope. Just finished watching the Big League Softball World Series championship game and my hometown team won it all.

    I might, and I emphasize, MIGHT, rip it if I get time this weekend. And a little inebriated.

    "lol @ leaving $135 box unripped in a group rip. lol @ leaving anything unripped in a group rip. lol @ leaving ANYTHING unripped for that matter. Life is too short to leave stuff unripped. That is all."


    Fail on both points. I didn't have a 79 vending box as part of my unopened collection, and now I do. If this was an extra, I'd rip it. And ten years from now when this stuff has dried up and it's worth 4 times what it is now, I'll be the last one laughing. So rip if you must - I enjoy the threads about it - but it ain't happening with me unless it's an extra.

    Oh, and I'm contemplating going top shelf with one of BBCE's big time boxes. If I do, it'll go into cold storage.

    10 years from now if it's worth $540 (4X wha it is now), what is the big advantage to that?

    I think you should leave it alone too. Good call. Not because of what it could be worth but because it just should stay closed in my opinion!

    I'm just giving Burgundy a hard time cause I like him. I know that ripping it isn't the smart thing to do from an investment standpoint but it just isn't as fun. I'm really gonna shock some folks when I buy either the box of '54 Bowman or '55 Topps that BBCE has and rip it.
  • Yeah but you could pull this!!!!

    Right back at ya, bro. You got it on the investment angle, it's almost never a winning proposition but you're right, there's a fun quotient to ripping stuff like this that can't be denied. My rule of thumb has always been this:

    Pre-75: Leave it untouched.

    75-79: If you have 2, think about busting one. If you have 3, have at it.

    80-84: If you have 2, bust one.

    85 and up: Rip it all and burn it.
