63.0. "Definitions of terms" by ZAYIUS::BROUILLETTE (It's all in the windows...) Mon Mar 20 1989 13:32

  I thought I would start a note on definitions of terms used
here!
 
  My question is, what is a vendor case?

    I have bought vendor boxes back to 76 (topps only). A vendor case
    hase 24 boxes @500 cards and should (generally) give 12-15 complete
    sets.

63.3Why Not In MY Attic?UJEST::JACUNSKITue Mar 21 1989 19:234
    Sometime last fall there was either an ad or an article in SCD about a
    recent find of unopened 1956 vendor boxes and it was accompanied
    by a photo of some of the cards fanned out in front of a box. Made
    me weak in the knees.

    Read the story about the 53 wax case that was opened 8 weeks ago
    because the owner was upset wityh the 750.00 quote from a local
    dealer.  The story will be in most of the hobby publications this
    month. NO WAX CASE IS NOT A TYPO.  He found 50 mantles. Fifty-
    five zero-

    re .5
    I had a chance to view those 56's.  They were water damaged. theywere
    much beter looking in the photo than in person.  I wish Tony was
    with me last year when the 1951 wax packs were for sale.  75.00
    a pack.  2  thats two cards per pack, no peeking beforehand.
    I was a tough call-Tony, what would you do.
