I can remember back in 1991-ish, our local grocery store stocked baseball cards. And they just happened to have one last rack pack of 89 Donruss. Being the poor kid with the family who wouldnt buy him cards, I remember hiding that pack in behind all the other cards as deep down as I could get them and then managed to remember exactly where I had placed it for about a week afterwards until I could scrounge up the $1.25 or so that the thing cost. Went back a week later, dug it out, and boom.. Ken Griffey Jr. Rated Rookie. I remember jumping up and down in the parking lot as I walked back to the car with my dad. 9 years old at the time and a memory that I will keep forever.

that long pause scared me 16:32

Man as a Frank Thomas collector that 1992 Stadium Club pack would've made my year. Don't suppose you'd wanna sell them? I don't have either one of those cards. Great video Erik!

even if it's garbage wax, it's still fun to rip open packs from childhood! thanks for sharing!

The 1990 Score "Bo Knows" card #697 is the best card of all time. It just says "BO" on the back in a purple B and a black O. I don't care how many they made, priceless to me!

There’s always the same packs in those Random Packs auctions

“Cheating Husband’s Old Sports Card Collection” were always my favorite KZfaq listings.

I remember when I was 8 my dad handed me a bunch of raw 89 topps cards after I was showing interest in collecting by this point I had gotten a ton of football cards never dabbled in baseball and I thought he was gifting me some ancient heirloom. Anyways 20 years old now. still have all the 89 topps he handed down. Probably one of my favorite sets for that reason alone. Your channel is freaking sweet man. Cheers from California!

I like you drop baseball card Knowledge when you open these older packs. You make it more interesting.

I love how creative this idea was! Might have to try it for myself

Definitely brings back memories. I remember the price of the Stadium Club was through the roof back then, something like $10 a pack. I thought then the hobby was going crazy. Thanks Erik.

Number 5 was the best. It was smart for the seller to add bonuses to help bolster the sale.

I was at the 1994 Home Run Derby as well. That ball that Frank Thomas hit to left center that hit the facade of the upper deck is still the longest ball I've ever seen hit in person, an estimated 519 feet. I remember it like it was yesterday, because Thomas was (still is) my favorite player and the ball hit the Will Clark banner (I went to the derby with my sister's boyfriend at the time) and Will Clark was his favorite player, so we thought that was cool and ironic.

All those old packs definitely take me back to being a kid!

Always run across these things for sale ... nice you pulled the trigger for us. Last seller was the best with the bonus stuff.

last one was also my favorite. awesome when they add bonuses like that

I just bought s box of 92 topps at my local flea market. Had a blast opening. I still enjoy opening packs from my childhood.

Fun video. Love the Randy Johnson rookie. I still always pick those up when I see a good deal on them.

Nice vid. Have always wondered what kind of packs come in these. Figured it was all junk wax, but still fun to rip them open for cheap.

Every time I see videos of so called junk wax openings or vending box openings, I think to myself I need a Baseball Card vending machine just to have one. You just pushed me over the edge and I am going to seriously start looking for one to put in my card room. BTW lot 5 was the best in my opinion.

That made my day with the leaf, David Justice pack! My hometown team hero!

I bought the 1,000 card Ebay item from the last seller in the video....Well worth it it so much fun to open all the packs....Gave a lot more bonus cards too...Likely buy a bunch more.....

Thanks for sharing this. It's nice to see what all these Ebay lots actually are.

Thanks for the insider look. I'll be laying off this stuff... better to continue the hunt for $5 or $6 boxes of junk and open an entire box. Or maybe a pharmacy box with newer cards available.

I remember I had a randy johnson on the reds card that I was soo proud of...only to find out it wasn't the same guy lol

That 90 Donruss border takes me right back. We sacrificed so so many Donruss and Fleer to make our bikes sound like motorcycles. Never Topps.

Nice 👍 to see others try the lots on eBay

Couldn't have been a bigger braves fan in the 80s and 90s!

16:37 (REEBOOT.... REBOOT.... REBOOT... COMPLETE) Bro, I seriously thought you died!

The excitement of opening older cards. There's nothing better

Carlton Fisk sounds like a character from fresh prince or the villain from spider man. Never would have guessed that was a real guy

number 5 was definetly my favorite set of cards too.

Erik, have you considered doing an “ask me anything” (AMA)? Just a live where your viewers can ask about cards, ball hawking, or going to flea markets?!?

Always wanted to buy one but I figured I would get CRAP! This video confirms that. The best pack in my opinion was that Stadium Club. Those Thomas cards are HOT! Well were hot. Still looking for my $5 box of cards but I never find them. You must be in a hot zone since Topps was located in PA. I'll have to take a look at that 5th package! That was a good value!

18:20 “How about some 92 Topps; My brother absolutely HATES 92 Topps...” LOL BY THE WAY, you could use a pen light for the scratch off card. Go in pitch black room and hold light behind card. The scratch off becomes less evasive and a bit see through. I literally had a tiny lightbulb penlight, would go in a dark closet and figure out the correct ones to scratch. I won a lot of gold cards that way. I think you should try it, and scratch a winner!! Thanks for the entertaining video.

There's a 100 pack lot you can get for $37.95+Free shipping on Ebay i've bought a couple times. Decent deal if you wanna rip open alot of these packs.

I might have to try this one day. # 5 was the best in my opinion. "always nice to get a bonus. " lol

I got 63 packs of 89 topps packs that you opened for 20 bucks hoping to get a Griffey rookie and had no idea he wasn’t in the set. Did pull a few randy Johnson’s though

Man you come up with some great video ideas keep the great variety

Good way to check out what other sellers in the marketplace are offering.

LMAO! As a lifelong Alomar fan/collector, I absolutely LOVE ‘88 Donruss

Number 5 was the best one to me. Thanks for sharin.

IMHO, #4 wins (Kind of) based on packs, not pull. But #5 wins with bonus superstars.

That last pack was a nice touch. I love opening up old wax packs with my son. Not much value, but that's kinda what you're looking for when you have a 4 year old opening them lol. He's a huge fan of yours as well. Thanks for all you do.

#5 was the best 1 when it came to ensuring you at least got something decent if you didnt get anything out of the packs...not really much card value but could be exciting to a new collector who could be say an 8 year old kid...at least they can say look dad I got a Randy Johnson rookie card...

Great idea...but dang those Donruss packs LOL so many Donruss and Score...Score and Donruss

1992 Triple Play is where I was at in '92. Dumped all my paper route money into that crap! And I agree with the '90 Fleer disgust you have. haha

Listening to you open packs is my favourite

I like lots like this it’s a cheap way of feeding my pack cracking addiction.

Very nice last lot. Extras made up for the packs.

I don't even collect cards and I like your channel.

You got me started on collecting cards again , appreciate the video. Have a good week and good luck on the next break.

The Last one was ok you should do a TBT of Upper Deck and chase the Find the Nolan Aaron Williams or the Mantle/Griffey Jr dual autos! They were easier to pull than the ELITE! lol good job with the video

What about Sandy?? He was a few cards before his brother. He won an MVP at the All-Star game in Cleveland in 1997 (Hometown Hero) and was a part of the greatest lineup of power hitters in the '90s. (Just wish we had some pitchers back then and we could have won a World Series

Rob Deer was a walk to the dugout guy. Strikeout or a jog around the bases and walk back. He didn’t spend time on the bases.

Typical Jabs, sells a product similar to this, that's how I found him, and still suggests purchasing from competition. He is a good man through and through.

I love the wax’s pack back then you get a few goods rookies

I actually really like the simple design on the 1992 Fleer cards with the easily readable player names in block letters on a light green background and the team logo is above that. In my opinion that design is one of the best looking ones of the 1990s card designs.

Getting ready my first FMF!

Wow!!! I would have loved that pack with 3 dave justice cards!! Amazing!!

I collect Dave Justice, that was an awesome pack!

Thanks for doing this so everyone cad see what you get and decide if they want to buy one!!

Cool video! I like the concept of the random pack purchase. Reminds me of your pharmacy box vids, which I always enjoy. Keep up the great work, Jabs! Oh, and the last one was definitely the best.

I would love to find someone that was selling mystery wax packs structure from 70s and 80s even though it would cost more

For some reason I like the feeling of opening 90 upper deck and 89 upper deck

Love opening older packs!!

"If you're french"...That would be Canadian, Jabs. O-Pee-Chee is known for hockey cards. Try ripping a 1979 pack and see if you can get a Gretzky rookie. One of the most iconic cards EVER.

Great idea to check out these others lots to see what is out there and if is worth to buy.

I wish card companies would take rookie cards from the 90’s and earlier and insert them into new packs but with autographs. That would be some amazing pulls.

Hey there, I was wondering if you have an email or somewhere I can ask you a question? I have a card I thought I had lost from when I was a kid, but found it again, I see wildly different prices online, no clue what to go off of or where to start, would love some help on this! :)

I am having flashbacks to my teenage collecting years. Yikes! I just can't part with them though. I do like the 91 Score set though-always has been a soft spot for me

Your videos got me back into card collecting. Love the videos and wish you all the best.

The 90 Upper Deck was what got me back into collecting. I love the clean design.

So confused about what's the difference between subscribing to the channel or subscribing to Patreon? I feel like I have to do both to even have a chance? All I want to do is enjoy Jabs?

Love the wide variety of things you used to open the pack! but a great nostalgic trip!

Great video! Always pondered on buying those lots. May try one now. Thanks for sharing. God Bless!!

I agree with you Erik that last two sellers sent the best variety of packs. The last seller was the best of all. Overall nothing too valuable besides the Randy Johnson 1989 Donruss RC but it was fun seeing you rip open packs 25 to 30 years old.

I fell for Dad’s collection. What the heck do you do with all the commons!

Love the variety of breaks you put out !! Always looking forward to see what's next 👍

This is the best video yet this week to help my ebay store. Now I could throw in and sell some 1990 cards in a lot for $5. You are right, need more topps

I remember 92 topps baseball the game card if you want into the closet so I can put a flashlight under it you can see what was under the card

Those were so cool packs, thank you so much for the awesome video!

What was with the long pause thought I was having a stroke

That Randy Johnson RC was a nice find!

Last one was definitely the best. But I have enough old junk wax era cards lol.

The grind babyy! Keep it up homie

Last lot was definitely the best. The others were pretty disappointing but I guess it's to be expected for the price.

Great video! Always figured those mystery bags would be filled with junk wax, funny how it was a lot from your list of worst sets.

Definitely #5! Awesome video.

Cool seeing old packs again. Thanks Jabs!

I like the 88 score set....not a lot of great stuff in it.....but a good looking set IMO. Loved the 92 Donruss look as well... Im an 80s - early 90s collector (mostly junk wax) that got back into things a few months ago....trying to get all the stuff available from my main years of collecting 85 - 92

I think you have a "blank-back" in your 1987 topps pack. You may want to look again.

Lions Pirates and Jabs oh my

Awesome idea Erik! Love the video as always! Very informative. #'s 4 & 5 were the best. And I'd agree #5 was the best of all. Some good packs but bonus cards of Stars & HoFers was sweet! Thanks for sharing!!!

When he was quiet for a while I thought I lost my hearing😂

I really need to learn how to work eBay. Great vid

Ok, I knew i was tripping. I thought that said 100 PACKS for $6.70, I was wondering when they got so cheap

I've thought about buying these. Thanks!

I agree with you on the last package...

Awesome vid! Keep em coming!
