Part 1

I picked up six boxes of 1998 Topps Tek. If we can sell out by Monday, June 10th, I might be able to pull this off before I leave on vacation. If not, the break won't actually occur until the first week of July.

- $130 dlvd via PayPal only.
- MUST INCLUDE FCB USER NAME in PayPal payment. I am accepting PayPal gift this time if you feel comfortable doing so, but it is optional.
- Break will be posted on YouTube

I will allow a window of time for participants to "trade players" before the box break.

Post if interested. I will PM you with PayPal info.

Just a heads up that the thread is up. Not everyone got the lot they want, so feel free to work something out with each other. Sorry to be a ****, but I will be asking for an extra $3 each time you break up your lot for the extra postage with USPS tracking.

[MENTION=4682]RustyGreerFan[/MENTION] - George and I are thinking of splitting lot #2 . I would love to trade you for your Vladdi cards, is there a non-Cardinal player or two in slot 2 you would trade Vladdi for? It would help me in knowing what to ask George for in the split, so then I could trade with you.

Hell, let's make this as complicated as possible :) Trading is fun.

Nope, nobody from Lot #2 . But if you can work another deal I would trade Vladi for Chipper, Larkin, Piazza, Lofton, Pedro Martinez, or an Oriole.

I would trade Derrek Lee for a Blue Jay if you get the Blue Jays.

I'm also looking to trade A-Rod for another star or Dunwoody or Kotsay for a scrub.

Not interested in the group buy but I love what you guys are doing I. Order to cheapen the breaks and increase your odds. Kudos!

Some were disappointed with the pricing, so I have lowered it to $130. Those that have paid so far - I owe you partial refunds.

Cost ($846 dlvd) + shipping, materials, etc = about $900
$130 * 7 slots = $910
In other words, PayPal gift greatly appreciated :mrgreen:

I'm really going to need your help with a couple of things:

1. I'm going to have to get $3 postage each time an extra particpant is added.

2. Assuming I can get this break knocked out before my trip, I may need some volunteers to have to have their lots shipped once I return in July, especially since we're adding participants.

Well whoever is interested in Lot 7, I'd clearly be interested in Albert Belle. Not sure who is the big player in that lot, assuming Thomas, so hopefully a player collector of his sees the break.

I woke up to some PayPal payments this morning! We just have a couple more payments to receive and we'll be ready. Looks like the boxes are about 45 minutes away from me, so they should be delivered today or Monday.
