As mentioned before, this has me unloading some cards in 25-card packs. I think it's a hell of a deal, to be honest. Here's what my "25-card vintage packs for the people" include for a mere $5 plus shipping:
- At least 5 vintage (pre-1978) cards, usually more
- 1 autographed card
- Prospect/minor league cards, including guys who went on to the majors
- SSPC cards from 1975-76
- Modern cards from Gypsy Queen, Topps, Bowman, Topps Heritage, Allen & Ginter and so on
- And more - surprise parallels, small-run food issues etc
It's a great way to get 25 surprise cards spanning the 1950s to today at a low price, including stuff that's pretty tough to find. I collected many cards over the years, and am pruning back my collection this way and making sure they get to a good home. And hey, who doesn't like surprises?
Very cool. Looks like you're already moving a few of these. Not sure if you're gonna go to Serramonte in a few weeks, but if you do... bring a couple and I'll buy them. By the way, I also have a stack of 1981 and 1985 Topps for your set builds that I'll bring.
ReplyDeleteHow likely would it be that the one I purchase includes that 77 Goodson?
ReplyDeleteThese would probably go over like gangbusters at a show or in a shop. I'm trying to keep away from cards that don't fit into any particular collections, but I do really like the mix you've got going on here.
