Group Beak Packs 7-9

I had some help opening these. I never opened any 87 OPC but I did a lot of 87 Topps so this brought back some good memories.

He was excited every time we pulled a Red Sox.  HE couldn't understand why there were no D-Back cards though.  If you know how to explain expansion teams to a 6 year old please tell me cause I failed at it.

On to the cards.

Group Break Update - Need Addresses

I busted  the box and you should start seeing the results soon.  But I'm going to warn you, I was not very happy with the results.  I went out and spent all the rest of the group break money and a few dollars of my own to get something that was cheap but also something that hopefully some of you would want.  So what I did is I bought a brick of 87 Leaf cards.  I got them from one of my LCSs for a good price.  It is about 800-1000 cards.  I will break it up per the teams you choose.  Since I am already out some money on this I'm not going to ship every single double to you out of the Leaf, hopefully I save a few cents in shipping that way.  (But I will ship all the OPC doubles since that is what you paid for to start with) (unless you don't want them, I understand if you want to be the guy with the most 87 OPC Rob Deer cards.  Actually I can't understand that but if you want them you got them)

I'm not going to post the results of the Leaf just expect them in the mail with your other cards.  The first Pack Break is scheduled for in the morning.

I need addresses for

1967ers and Tribecards.  I have an old one for you David but wanted to make sure it was still the same.

APBA

This showed up in an eBay auction.  It was listed kind of high so I took the Make Offer option and it was accepted.
 

It was listed as a 1960 Game Card.  I hadn't seen it before and since he took my low offer so I am very happy with it.  I'm not sure where the "Quail" comes from because I never saw it mentioned with Virdon before.  I'm not sure how many years that they made these because they are not listed on Beckett.

Bet you I waited longer than you...

Ever have a redemption that seemed to take a year to get?  Well, it seems Topps, UD, Panini, and anyone else have quicker customer service than Dayf the blogger.  I claimed a card from a box break of his on December 8th 2008.  It arrived this weekend.  Behold 2 years and 5 months + of waiting

This is a 2008 Stadium Club 1st day Issue Ted Williams.  Beautiful card from a crazy screwed up configured set.  But worth the wait.   Teddy Ballgame isn't all he sent though...

2009 O-Pee-Chee was one of my favorite sets of 2009.  It is a toss up between O-Pee-Chee and Goodwin.  Here are a few black bordered O-Pee-Chee that dayf sent. 

I also got a few 2011 Heritage in my package.  Since I have swore off showing any more of them I didnt' scan any of them except this.  It is some kind of black bordered card. (# C71)  It looks much nicer than the regular ones.

Seriously this was all in good fun.  I'm sure there is someone out there waiting two years or so for a card I promised them too.  Thanks for the cards. 

I'll get your Ginter SP card in the mail sometime in 2013.
