I have 24 (from my memory) unopened packs of 1981 Topps Football...buried in a trunk in the basement. I think I am going to dig them out tomorrow. Question is should I send the packs to get graded OR, say ###k it and open them and post what I find. Not that I am going to sell my collection but what is the wiser financial choice....or does it really matter? I saw a PSA graded pack selling for $49.00 on ebay.....seems outrageous. Opinions appreciated.

Id sell em...I mean montana rookies book high but if its not mint itll only sell for $30-$40...I have 6 of em and refuse to sell them because I cant get enough

id get the packs graded...you would sell 20+ graded packs way higer then the montana that ur likely to pull...but you never know bc there could be a gem mint montana hiding out in one of the packs..i tell you what if u send them to my addy i will check for ya.

Just wondering what you decided to do. I'd be very interested in seeing what you got if you opened them. I'd love to find some old packs like that to open.

Sell the packs, buy the Montana is you want it. $50 x 20 packs is a $1000. You can get a heck of a Montana for that.
