Is there much of a market for 800+ wrong backs from 1983?

I just acquired a huge collection recently and something got my attention yesterday. There is an 800 count box full of 1983 Topps and every one of them have the wrong back. I have so much material to go through but I was wondering if there was much of a market for these.

I think this post most likely tanked the market for 83 wrong backs 😊. But it would be neat if you could build a full set of fronts with wrong backs

Not hard to find wrong backs on ebay, but other than those involving star cards have not seen great interest. However I don’t specifically collect them and maybe anyone who does will have a different perspective

Player collectors like them. I only know one guy who collects them in set form. If you have a Wade Boggs I would be interested.

It's like anything else, you could risk blowing them out on ebay, or wait for the one guy out there that actually cares!

Boggs and Gwynn should get some attention.

Wrong backs seem pretty common, at least for early '80s Topps. It is the wrong front cards that command such a premium.
