Now don't start tempting me to open those 73's. CpaMike and Grote have officially converted me to an un-opened pack connoisseur. How about lets rip some modern
I am starting a project where I am going to work to collect at least one wax, cello, rack from each year starting with 1981 back for BB, FB and BSK. I might throw in some vending boxes, grocery packs, super cello's if they are available. I think it would be cool if you could display it in your man cave.
In reality they probably didn't get anything shipped until Wednesday, which shouldn't be a disappointment considering what it takes to package up how many (over 50?) different packages that involve 16 separate boxes and a case. Sure I will be disappointed if I don't get mine tomorrow, but I won't be disappointed in BBCE's efforts.

I'm not disappointed with them at all, just being sarcastic and anxious.
Trust me, I'm anxious! I drove 25 minutes home (each way) at lunch just to check my front porch, even though I knew it wouldn't be there. That's a problem! lol

, too hilarious...I just about did the same thing today, but didn't want to risk being late back to work.
I think what I said may have came out wrong. I didn't mean I was disappointed in BBCE's efforts. I assumed my stuff would ship on Tuesday and be here by Friday. I didn't think about how much Steve had to box and ship. Oh well, if I don't get tomorrow, I can hang out at the mailbox on Saturday.
Unfortunately I think think UPS ships to my house on Saturday, so it could very well be Monday until I get mine. That would make for one LONG weekend! I better distract myself with golf and football.
<< <i>In reality they probably didn't get anything shipped until Wednesday. >>
You might be right, but it seems in the past I've actually had my cards in hand from BBCE before others involved in the rip had even paid. I think the gang over there starts boxing things up as soon as payments start to arrive.
What I'm saying is, let's not give up hope!!! Today's going to be the day for those of us who paid Tuesday morning!!
Here's to hoping! Today has the potential of being a great day. Sunny and 78 today in NE Ohio, playing hooky and golfing at 10:15am, then going home early to watch the porch!
I am anxious for all of you guys to get your packs and see the scans! With this much un opened material getting ripped there has to be some awesome pulls coming!
<< <i>Here's to hoping! Today has the potential of being a great day. Sunny and 78 today in NE Ohio, playing hooky and golfing at 10:15am, then going home early to watch the porch! >>
Hookie eh? Two can play that game sir...now who's UPS guy is faster is the question. Got my camera, and photobucket up and ready...the wager? 1 free pack o cards to the quickest man, the odds....2/1 for Black00SS......muahahahaha.
I'm playing Stalker like BlackOOSS, curtains pulled back every 15 minutes, started at 6:00 Am even though I know if I have any packages the Post Office calls me and asks if I want them brought to the house or do I want to pick them up!
I think I have a Problem.....And I have no subs to check right now....So Serious Problem of CSA (Compulsive Something Always having to do with my collectibles)!!!!!
I think I'll call down to the PO in about 15 minutes !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
YeeHah
Actually Collect Non Sport, but am just so full of myself I post all over the place !!!!!!!

Ahh, another challenger to the free pack to the first scan poster? I welcome the challenge, and maintain my stance as follows.......Nobody is as psycho as me stalking the mailman/UPS man. I even watch the mailman after he leaves my house for a few minutes, to make sure he does not turn back around because he forgot a package of mine....
So, here we go....I got the curtain propped back with the broom, binoculars so I can see if the UPS guy is 2 blocks over, and a tazer in case he starts to drive by my house, without stopping. Every few minutes I run outside at a full sprint, stop suddenly, and stare at my next door neighbors house.
One thing is for certain, if I dont get my package today...I may never get it. The neighbors may call the looney ward, and have me booked for a padded room. Even if they do.....I'll still be watching for that UPS man.......
Package at Post Office, their holding, Don't know if its BBCE or something else, I am running out door to go down and get it, Oh Crap better get out of my Bathrobe first, maybe put some cloths on !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just heard something outside and when I walked into the living room, the UPS guy was driving down my driveway leaving. I jumped to the door and found a package waiting......a box from Children's Place that my wife had ordered. This is cruel and unusual punishment!

Knew I should not have laughed at you...Fed-Ex just showed up, I was thinking, well maybe Steve chose them for some reason. Nope, it was my son's trampoline. I just about told the Fed-Ex lady to take it back. If I cant get my cards today, no trampoline for the kid.....but then I remembered I love him more than anything, and the fact that he is going to absolutely LOVE it. I unloaded it from her truck, under protest, but did nonetheless.
I did get a package from BBCE yesterday. It's something a little special for my PC. It's a complete unopened box with 36 Packs from Topps. It has something to do with the desert. It also has something to do with the word shield???

Didn't get much this time around, but I thought one of my '82 cellos was appropriate considering my CU name:
Front:
Back:
Just bought 1 77 cello which will remain sealed, and 2 each of the 82's and 83's. Will open one of each.

The one '83 pack I opened was pretty sharp, and the 2nd to last card in my pack was a beauty.
Haven't pulled a Sandberg rookie from a pack in 28 years, so it was a blast. It's got a shot at a 9 I think.
Next time my wife can take herself to the doctor's office!

Packages were sent out Wednesday. BBCE fills up a UPS truck daily, so they couldn't go out Tuesday.
Also as of 11:00am this morning these are the folks who still need to pay. Sleepydave I took you off the list. Please get your payments in today.
