Cautionary Tale- Vintage Unopened Packs
Well this is a bummer. I decided to share one of my setbacks. I purchased an unopened 1969 Topps baseball pack either in the late 1990s or early 2000s from a Teletrade auction for what I believe was ~ $200. I had faithfully kept it in the Teletrade package ever since. I could see John Hiller (#642) and Jim Beauchamp (#613) in the back. Thus, I thought it was from the 7th series. I submitted it for grading ($334) last month [Thus, total cost of $534] and it turns out it was a resealed pack. I appreciate Steve Hart's (BBCE) evaluation of the authenticity of the pack. There was no pack grading back then, otherwise I would have never bought it. Live and learn...
