Graded Card Bonanza!
Don't know why, but I bid on a blind lot of graded cards.
Here's the results! I think I did better than any SBay Superbox that I ever bought!
Some nice vintage and I lucked out with that Pepitone!!

Graded 80's cards ... not bad

A PSA 10! Cool, I guess?

Never heard of Smoker, but BV on this card is really higher than I ever imagined? Wonder why?

Here's the back of the sealed holder

I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

Not too shabby, Doc. Maybe you should make all of your purchases blind. :-D

I got really, really lucky! Those cards could have easily been a graded selection of various Dillon Maples cards throughout his career.

Awesome DrM....Joe Pepitone-the player who introduced the blow dryer to the MLB clubhouse. Congrats on the Maybin 10. That's a great lot of cards. Like Jared said.....lol. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Joe!
Yeah, I think Pepitone was responsible for introducing more than just the BLOW dryer to the locker room.
I checked the PSA population report and there is only one Maybin 10 graded card, so maybe I'll try and ebay it. Might get lucky with that too?

Yeah, thanks. I was pretty happy when I saw some of those cards. Anytime I can pick up vintage Yankees in a blind purchase ... I'm doing good.

RE: Graded Card Bonanza!
Very cool! Beckett doesn't do a good job of updating the BV on failed prospects. Or maybe Smoker has a rich family that pays big for his cards?
