My first thought was Fritsch. Yeah millions may be overstating it just a tad.

Lmao 1 million bucks??

Jesh the way i see it you would have to pay to rent a dumpster and pay to toss it all in.

counterfeiters? Why would there be loads of uncut sheets in a Detroit warehouse?

An old Krukscards warehouse?

If as many people have been in there as they say, if there was anything worth anything, somebody would have backed a moving truck up to that building and removed those cards long ago, especially in Detroit.

Cool pictures though. Take a little piece of that, and that's what my bedroom looked like in the early 80's. Drove my mom nuts.

I'd guess they're those Junior Hockey League sets that they overproduced in the early 1990's.

for it to truly be worth 1 million I think you would need around 25,000 cases.

Exactly right they actually have negative value.

[philliesfan]

At least one man, who goes by the name of Slanks, regularly frequents the factory to find cards to sell, claiming it has been his primary source of income

I really feel bad for Slanks on this one. What does he eat with his profit? Dog food?

Probably goes food shopping at the local Dollar General...

I don't think it does anyone any good to mock the poor guys.

That's just simply not true. You put that as one lot with hundreds of cases in an auction and it will fetch several thousand dollars.

The question is how much to ship hundreds of cases?

Wait I have an idea - site of the next National!

That might be true but unless you pick them up you will have to pay more in shipping than they are worth and I know I wouldn't rent a truck and drive to Detroit to pick up a bunch of 1987 vendor cases. A vendor case costs over $100 to ship, a 1987 vendor case is not worth 100 you can't sell one of those 1987 vendor boxes for $5.00 i don't believe.

Just looked on ebay an 87 topps case just went for $59.00, http://www.ebay.com/itm/1987-Topps-B...item5422f573d5

And at the same time, a card of a guy with a .258 average and 20 home runs at age 23 sells for 15K.

The auction house I work for sells warehouse lots all the time. There is no shortage of people willing to drive hundreds of miles to pick them up.
