  • In this video, I open up a BBCE authenticated box of 1978 Topps cello packs. The big find would be a Nolan Ryan, which recently sold for over $14,000 as a PSA 10 or an Eddie Murray rookie card.
    Check out the video and see what we find!

    It’s great every once in a while to watch an opening like this one. No autos, superfractors, numbered cards, jersey cards, etc. Just cards. The way it used to be.

      Amen. I started collecting cards in the late 80s, early 90s and it was just cards and bubble gum. I'm 46 now. I miss those days 😢

    '76 is when as a 13 yr. old I started collecting. Remember going to the local store plopping down my quarters & happily coming home during the hot summer w/my Slurpee. Topps packs & a comic book or two. Always in search of Reggie & Pete. Good times!

      I started collecting cards again about 18 months ago. We have a baseball card shop here( there's not many more around like back in the 80s and 90s) but Everytime I go I buy old cards from the 80s and 90s and it always make me feel like a kid again. I go twice a week. Sometimes weekly but it's such a thrill. 😊

    I’m from Detroit and as a kid I bought a ton of these that year. I got a ton of Yankees but hardly any Tigers. All I ever wanted was the Bird Fidrych but a pic of the card I cut out of Parade which came with the Sunday paper was all I ever got.

    Fantastic choice going with the 78 Topps. I was alive in 1978 and I did buy a lot of them. Enough that I put the complete set together. I had 4 Eddie Murray cards back in the day. I only kept one for the complete set and sold the other three to buy more cards in the late 80's

    What is the point of having this resealed and "certified" by the baseball exchange when it's obvious the packs inside have been manipulated? (USPS box looks like it was inserted for structural support)

    • @mattmorgan2534
      @mattmorgan2534 Před měsícem +2

      If this box was tampered with or repacked or anything suspect, there’s no way in hell they would leave that Ryan in there! With only three PSA 10 Ryan’s out there, there’s no way they leave it in there! That Nolan Ryan he pulled is between a 9.5 & 10 easily.

Collected mainly in the 1970’s, but things happen sold off my collection, if I only knew then what I know now, there might have been a few great cards I had, considering I had around 50,000+ cards, only if we could go back in time, lol. I’m sure I had a few high $$$ cards. This was probably the last year I bought cards. Makes me want to get back into collecting again.

How is this inside an unopened box of baseball cards from 1978? Am I wrong. I have a box from 1979 and it doesn't say anything like that on it anywhere.
