You have to see the pics!

Is this the former building where shop at home used to ship from?

Dang, I thought I had the only 1989 topps unopened box left.

Looks like huge stacks of paper sheets in one of the pics. I wonder if they were printing cards there.

Could u imagine if it said late 90s and early 2000s? THat would be something

 

[RStadlerASU22]

What a load of crap (both the article and the cards).

 

[Casebusters]

The only way they'd be worth millions is if there is billions of cards there

It was cheaper to load them into that building then throw them away...

besides the Ted Williams auto, H.W. Bush card, and a few other things to look for that pile is best sold for firestarter.

Tim Carroll would have a field day with that crap!

A guy named Slanks....that doesn't sound shady at all...

i'm pretty sure Shop at Home shipped from Tennessee (at least the one electronic item I bought on closeout from them was shipped from TN).

i can't believe they don't know the owner of the building - in which name (or company) is the property records under? Maybe it's as good as the property of the city of Detroit if noone has paid their property taxes on that building/land in years.

The Daily Mail is a tabloid rag, known more for sensational stories about BS than actual reporting. They're the news equivalent of that viral crap idiots share on Facebook. Most likely, they had a writer make up a story around some unrelated pictures they took from someone's Instagram. Why else would a UK news outlet be reporting on a story from Detroit? Only truth in that article is that Detroit is a burnt-out ****hole.

Like the time I was buying a few packs at Walmart and the guy was like "oh, these are worth a lot of money!".

Yes...that's why they are only three dollars a pack.,,,

"The mint-condition collectibles, dating from the late 1980s and 90s, were discovered by a team of urban explorers whose hobby is to venture into forgotten man-made structures." This sentence is funny.

So it's all junk. And the guys are technically stealing it.

Sounds about right.

There's a very good chance it was abandoned because it was junk.
