Just curious, is this a huge rip or are these going cheap?
 
Posted By: <b>Bob</b><p>Since I no longer read SCD, I was just curious, what are these? Do they really contain unopened packs from 1960 baseball and 1957 football as advertised? Has anyone disovered an unopened 1952 Topps pack? <br /><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/POSSIBLE-MANTLE-1952-TOPPS-ROOKIE-UNOPENED-WAX-PACK_W0QQitemZ230170747391QQihZ013QQcategoryZ44827 QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/POSSIBLE-MANTLE-1952-TOPPS-ROOKIE-UNOPENED-WAX-PACK_W0QQitemZ230170747391QQihZ013QQcategoryZ44827 QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem</a>

Posted By: <b>James Feagin</b><p>Bob,<br /><br />These Tri-Star boxes mostly contain packs from the 1986-1992 "junk wax" era of the modern hobby. Unopened packs from those years are available, but usually are seeded 1:million or something ridiculous like that. I would stay away unless you want to open some cheap modern packs.<br /><br />James

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>I don't think you need a promotion to sell a genuine 1952 Topps unopened pack (high # no less). There are more than enough buyers willing to pay top dollar for them.<br /><br />But that's an extremely deceptive ad because it shows a 52 pack smack in the middle of the cellophane. What else is new?

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>I don't know, but have heard it contains a lot of junk years.<br /><br />I remember in the 1990s when Wall Mart had their own boxes of assorted cards and autograph, and it was a pretty good deal. I remember they had one box where you were guaranteed a Tony Gwynn autographed baseball with COA. You got your money's worth. I remember I bought two, not certain I would actually get a Gwynn ball. After I did from both, I went back and bought the rest. I additionally got a John Schmoltz autograph from one of them.

Posted By: <b>peter chao</b><p>I didn't get anything interesting from the box I opened. But I did get some "exciting" '86, '87, '88, and '89 Topps and Donruss star cards. Great, exactly what I didn't need.<br /><br />Peter C.
