Yes but I had a hidden agenda! I wanted to see if I could get more than 300 views on a Wednesday night thread in the off season! Major success I'd say.

However, the testimony of fellow Pittsburg fan, namely, pens fan addict, quote "Rip it to shreds" was a little more persuasive. Since the majority of the jury voted in favour of tearing the card, it was what the Beckett citizens wanted and so it has come to pass. Spud
P.S. Sid did not feel a thing during the extraction! Wasn't this fun for a Wednesday night?

Very major success. Hard to get 5 views, let alone 300!

And from another perspective, a $12 Crosby jumbo received over 80 more views that a multi-hundred dollar Ultimate Staal shield! The lesson I take from this is that Beckett folk like to have fun as much as they like to see awesome cards. Spud

RE: Crosby DTT Jumbo - Do I Tear or Not
Ahhhh....I came along too late Spud!!
I would have been the second "don't rip it vote"....I think this is the first time this has been done isn't it? If you look down the road...most are going to be ripped....I see that jumbo as only going up in value un-ripped..
Mind you.....If I had it, I would rip the sucker open in a heart beat because every time I looked at it there would be a little voice coming from it saying "let me out...let me out"....
sorry man....

I would have said the same thing, and probably have ripped it right away too. Although, I might have tried to buddy up with a dentist and see if an x-ray would have revealed anything. haha
This is the same reason I bet 99 percent of us don't have any unopened wax sitting around.

Wow, more than 500 views since I went to sleep! Enjoying my freshly brewed coffee wondering if I'll ever get another Crosby jumbo. If I do I'll just send it to pens1fan!

Yes please Spud!!! If you can find one that is unripped I would definitively take it off your hands. Sorry your card didn't turn out any better, but it is cool to see over 500 views and almost 50 post on this thread.
