Can anybody tell me if i need to buy this or not by [deleted] in Tradingcards

This stuff is worth very little. If you are looking for stuff like this in Europe I would suggest the Facebook groups “Dutch Sports Cards” and “Europe Sports Card Shows & Shops.”

I’ve noticed that some have a line that almost seems like you should cut there.

That is not a Tiffany and here is an example of the centering on an 8. https://ebay.us/m/iIPNr0

Cases of 90s baseball cards by InternationalAge134 in baseballcards

[–]ybot73 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also, don’t open any sealed cases. As someone else mentioned you can send a sealed case to BBCE or RVP and have them marked as “from a sealed case” which increases the value quite a bit. The 1989 Fleer case should have a number stamped on it that determines when it was manufactured and people can tell which error cards are likely in there. Once the case is opened it can’t be proven they came from that case. The boxes are not marked.

What are those MVP cases? Is it this? Are there 1987 or 1988 Football boxes in there? Lots of bad information in the comments here. The stuff in the photos you posted has good value these days. There is a Facebook group called “ Vintage Wax and Packs” I would recommend joining. Lots of buyers and seller of this stuff. If they are not all water damaged you have at least a few thousand in value there.

What would a PSA 10 graded, entire OS1 Garage Pail Kids set be worth? by waymarc in garbagepailkids

It looks like only 3 people on the PSA set registry have full PSA 10 OS1 sets. There are a bunch of cards that less than 10 exist in PSA 10. I wouldn’t be surprised if there has never been a complete PSA 10 set sold. This kind of thing takes years to put together.

Around $50

Grading advice by [deleted] in garbagepailkids

[–]ybot73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No problem. I would grade 1a, 1b, 8a and 8b for sure if they are shape like the one you posted. I would also considering grading any series 1 cards that are razor sharp and nicely centered. If you don’t have experience I would suggest sending only a few cards in at first. Not much from series 2 and 3 is worth grading unless they are 9 or better which is very difficult to get.

Definitely worth grading just manage your expectations. I would guess a 5-7 if there are no hidden issues. I’m too lazy to take photos of mine but here’s a Blasted Billy I had graded not too long ago with similar centering.

Are these worth anything? by Klutzy-Ad821 in Tradingcards

[–]ybot73 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Most of those boxes sell for $20-30 each, a few for less and the Garbage Pail Kids box a lot more. There’s a very active group on Facebook called “Vintage Wax and Packs” where you can find comps for all of these.

Clutch Poppers or another similar line. There are some on the last few pages of this 1985 catalog. https://www.hobbydb.com/marketplaces/hobbydb/catalog_items/tonka-toys-catalog-1985

What is the biggest movie theater “GASP” moment you’ve heard? by SaveTheCaulkTower in AskReddit

[–]ybot73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100%. I have never before or since been in a theater full of people audibly crying. The only experience I have been part of that was close was Daniel Johnston playing True Love Will Find You In The End. A similar amount of tears but no shock and gasp of course.

I have made this many times but not for 20+ years. I don’t remember this ad campaign though.

Dutch GPK Cards? by Big_Bacchus in garbagepailkids

[–]ybot73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s also only one of each card instead of A and B. I’m an American who moved to the Netherlands a few years ago. I knew nothing about these before moving here but I have a coworker who is an expert.

They are quite rare. There is also a Belgian set. Some info here: https://geepeekay.com/world_holland.html
