Any Advice for Finding Pre-2000 Unopened Boxes?
I love busting boxes, but don't always enjoy dropping 100-200 a box. I'm looking into busting stuff like 1990 Leaf, 1992-1995 Upper Deck.
I want to bust boxes that I enjoyed opening when I was a kid, the only difference is that I actually ahve a money to spend.
Looking for all Notre Dame players including Jimmy Clausen, Golden Tate, Kyle Mc
cARthy, Sam Young, Brady Quinn, and John Carlson

I would try your LCS. Most of these boxes from the time period wouldnt be worth the shipping. Many LCS's have these boxes just lying around. My LCS always has a shelf of $20 and under boxes from the late 80's to early 90's.

i personally think you cant go wrong with bowman. If i was gonna buy some older boxes it would be bowman or topps finest. donruss preferred seems to be a hit with the precious metals

I 2nd that, as I have bought a few older wax boxes from both places when I get the itch and don't want to drop a few hundred on a box. I have even bought wax that's just a year or two old from them at pretty good discounted prices. So I recommend you check them out and see if they have what your looking for. They may have some Free Shipping deals worth looking into as well.
