So, your plan is to NOT look at all the cards you are buying?

I won't have time to look through all the cards so I'll have to choose a few boxes and estimate a value based on what I see. 2) assuming I like what I inspect, make an offer contingent upon authentication of a few of the key ungraded cards.
And hope that the unopened boxes aren't all 1988 Topps baseball.

Bad idea for you pay the seller more money than the value of any cards you have actually looked at when you drive away.

If the seller wants all of the money before you have had a chance to go thru ALL of the cards, then walk away (either completely or with a partial purchase).

Good luck with your purchase,
Doug
