In 1970 an older kid (I was 8, he was ~12) in the neighborhood gave me 20 cents to buy two packs of baseball cards. He said I could keep one pack and he the other. However, if I opened either of the packs, he would take the best 10 cards and leave me with the rejects. I made it about 100 feet from the store, and about 300 feet from my friends house before I opened the cards. How someone** could have an unopened pack of cards for 30+ years I could never understand.
** I reaise this is not the case with the OP
