I'm swearing off unopened stuff!!

If anyone catches me buying unopened stuff to look for gems, please have me committed to the nearest crazy house.
Just went through a 1986 OPC baseball vending case and did not find one (no, not even one) gradable card!!! I know that's a tough set and vending sucks, but geez! Also opened ten boxes of 1988 leaf and found no gradable stars. I'm not writing this because I'm surprised. I'm writing this because I know how this crap goes, but continue to order the stuff!!! At least it's dirt cheap material I'm opening.
Anyone else have a problem and need help?

I spend perhaps around $100 a year on blasters...that used to be one bet for me gambling.
To me the blasters and getting cards is like spending money on a hobby...but you can call it whatever your little heart desires. LOL

<< <i>Buy rack packs!
Where'd you get the vending from? >>
Does 1986 OPC come in rack packs? I've never seen it. I've opened some wax, just as crappy.
<< <i>doubt i'll ever swear off rum. >>
Hell Yeah
<< <i>You selling any 86 OPC sets? >>
I hadn't really planned on it, but I have about 8000 cards laying around now. How many are you interested in? I might could get my son to put some together. This set is tough, I'm guessing maybe NM-MT sets at best.

Bubbles,
I have what was called OPC vending cases when I bought them for 83, 84, 85, and 87. They are labeled as cut card cases and I bought them from Steve Myland back in the years listed. There is no year on the cases but they do say OPC on them.

First, I admit there is a higher power, and it's name is GEM.
