Is anyone else shocked that 80s baseball cards are almost worthless?

That sucks. I have boxes and boxes of cards from the 80's sitting somewhere at my parents house, a lot of them all pristine and protected in those stupid plastic things.

I have a lot of 80s baseball cards sitting in my mom's house too. They only sat under 8 feet of water for about two weeks, so the damage is minimal. Anyone want to buy them? I'll give you a 10% discount for the flood damage.

Are they the packs that have gum inside?

If they are, the famous Topps gum might actually be more chewable now than it was when originally produced.

Sadly, this is not the case. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I do have an unopened pack of 1975 Topps Hockey that I'm tempted to open just to sample gum that is older than me.
