Default WSJ Article on Unopened Packs - Buying Baseball Cards Sight Unseen
Posted By: Bob

Interesting article, although it would be nice if they had gotten the estimate of the value right. I would guess it will go for closer to $2,500 a BOX, not $2,500 a case (36 packs @ $70/pack). Small mistake......

Also, it angered me that they were implying that someone who didn't open a pack wasn't a collector or interested in sports--they were simply an investor. I think that couldn't be further from the truth--someone who leaves the pack unopened is simply an UNOPENED PACK COLLECTOR (in and of itself).
