People harvest the #697 Bo Jackson cards out of them; heck, he could bust them all, pull the Bo cards, and get a guaranteed $10 per. If any are PSA-worthy, a 10 will go $200, readily. NASCAR cards, depending on the issue, can sell for good money. As for Michael Jordan cards, even the cruddy ones sell. There are many junk wax singles that I cannot keep in stock for shows--people snap them up.

It might not be champagne and cocaine money in every box but a lot of pretzels and beer-quality boxes add up too.

Plus, how much fun would it be to go spelunking in a 20-million-card warehouse? Order in some pizzas and I know what I would do for my summer vacation.
4 Sharp Corners would make millions off stuff like this. Do not underestimate the power of a PSA 10, however worthless the actual card.
