Other collectibles markets do this regularly and it is a huge sham. The call them "repacks" and its always a disappointment as there is no accountability as to what they actually have.

I would vehemently encourage you to stay away.

10,000 boxes probably means what? 9,500 Rollie Fingers?

Huge scam. There are two of the cards pictured that could not even be worth $100 if you get one in low grade. If there was full disclosure, and you could see that they were giving roughly $70 value per box, then each person could decide if the gamble was worth it to them for entertainment value. But this just looks really shady. I can't imagine they will sell many.

The question is, if they only sell 100 of these, will they just send out the first 100 Rollie Fingers cards and keep the rest?

Absolutely agree...though I am too old to be flexible enough to kick myself in that region.
