But there's only one problem obviously their wet and can't be obtained out of the plastics but in the plastic their kept safe from rip and tear. Would they even be worth anything?
I think a few have asked, what year are these cards from???

Welcome to the Beckett community. Once you get used to how this site works it should be a positive experience trading/posting, ect. It took me awhile to get going on here and the traders on here have been great.

If they're wet at all throw them away.
Most are practically worthless even in mint condition. If they're at all damaged, they're even more worthless.
Unfortunately the late 80's and early 90s were a period of mass overproduction, and there are only a very very very few cards from that era that hold any sort of collector value.

I think burning might be a much more entertaining way to rid yourself of them, and keep yourself warm
