The week end recap is swashbucklingly great!❤ crossing our fingersthat those cards r not bricked up.

[@RawGradeFlip]

That power pad is perfect to layout in front of your fire place when the lady comes over. It’s a proven 🩲 dropper.

[@criteriumracer]

I have a Bob Uecker bottle cap, harder to track down than you think. Great pickups! That's alot of great wax.

[@dmm5159]

Oh man can't wait to see what's in those packs

[@adrianangold4441]

nice doggy, cute little pooch, maybe i got a milkbone! that terror dog is great!

[@andrewrossi7164]

Can't wait for the epic pack rip of all that awesomeness Jon 👍

[@nine_pockets]

Seeing a big box of wax packs will always make me a happy camper. Nice pick-ups, Jon!

[@thepastisalive]

Thanks man! Can’t wait to go through it later tonight

[@paulyd2406]

Oh My Gosh ... Forget the epic buy at the end of the video ... THAT VHS Tape of Alexander is THE Ultimate Find!! I never knew they made a video either Jon but man oh man do I ever remember that book!! Also OMG... The Matt Christopher Book Series I Read Them Like Crazy and Loved that book series!! Epic Memories you've triggered my friend! Excellent Video 😎

[@blindjimmyblaze1655]

I started to drool when I saw all those wax packs at the end!

[@markhotdogrose8494]

Keep being a kid at heart! I really enjoy watching you, and your brother's videos! Hotdog

[@bryancharles5557]

Nicely done on the packs! Need to watch that Alexander Bad Day video and essentially erase all the previous day's shenanigans and start a gloriously spiffy new day.

[@jessemathwig2410]

Try putting the boxes in the freezer. I did that with my bricked 94 topps set. Worked pretty decent. Basically getting any humidity out of them.

[@bradcline2831]

The ghostbusters figure

[@12Daze]

Classic rubber band flea market "sets". Man, those things were beat up. lol

[@jaredbonner6344]

that box of packs is AWESOME

[@BZARZAGZA]

Great grabs!! These are my favorite videos!!

[@altonmahaffeethesleeplessd1229]

And yes !! That last box was my favorite!!!!

[@DUBBER3]

Ohhhh the WAX !! Luv it

[@midnighttoker98]

My friend had a power pad back in the day and we had a blast playing Track and Field on the NES. We could have been great speed metal drummers with all the stomping!!

[@nickmassarelli6832]

Awesome pickup I love seeing the old wax still out there in the wild. I can't wait to see it ripped open. Hope you had fun at the game yesterday, and congratulations on catching your first ball at the game. That is a nice keep sake. My first and only ball was a Scott Rolen foul ball, and still have it since 2007.

[@kurtsnyder7546]

That is a beautiful buffet of wax, toys and childhood memories. Unbricking cards is one of life's mysteries. Thanks Jon!

[@tonyhamilton9764]

I still have that 93 UD set in a binder. Totally has become one with the binder sheets. Good times. That wax box is insane. What a great pick up!

[@PushnButtons62]

Wow bro! You cleaned up! Loved the Alexander book as a youngster! And yes, that WAS an awful title of that book as well as the super creepy cover art😅 Awesome looking packs, and cool Marichal rookie stamp, and then a Powerpad??? Man, excellent grabs

[@aaronkinsky5386]

Hey Jon Jabs love channel love what you do with old classic cards

[@VincesBanishedTartarSauce]

Let the ripping begin! Nice pickups.

[@toddjohnson6214]

Wow! The wax was the best part!!! I hope I win the Jeff bagwell!! 😂

[@SwanhillCards108]

I have to go with the stamp! Very cool. Thank you for the great content, as always.

[@ummstuff123]

That's a lot of fun for 70 bucks! 👍

[@NWCRYPTOADVISOR]

I’m jealous! Lol what a haul!!!

[@user-ex8po7xb2p]

Great video Jon, always enjoy them, love the power pad, brought back some good memories. Have you considered doing an updated rookie box video?

[@willg.2045]

Really nice pick up on those 1993 Upper Deck boxes. Those are pre-pandemic prices. Also, I'm extremely curious about the Alexander and the No-Good Very Bad day VHS. I assume its animated, but it could be just pans of the illustrations in the book. Thanks for sharing, Jon!

[@joepiechota6747]

Awesome deal on the unopened cards, congratulations!

[@ethansimonton5892]

Love opening old wax packs especially since I do ttm !

[@pneuma-369]

'90 Score Football!!! But man the Power Pad 🔥🔥🔥

[@paulfarrar5593]

Keep them coming Jon!

[@philinthablanxify]

Very cool collection!

[@MrUmaguma]

Great Vid Jon....looks like everything is kicking in gear

[@Hardball247]

Getting the '93 UD foil boxes for that price is an uber-steal.

[@jajasvintagesportscards8669]

Love the wax packs and boxes at the end! Great deal! Nice work 👍💪👊

[@patrickburns2274]

$55...jeez, like walking into the casino and hitting your first pull!!!

[@LonelyBasementBaseballCards]

Can’t believe you passed on the Colon box!😂

[@dmm5159]

Matt Christopher! He wrote so many kids sports books that I had as a young lad

[@benm6431]

Can't believe you walked away from that NKOTB wax box!

[@LinkRocks]

I'm a big Jared Jones fan because we share the same name. I've been waiting my whole life for my namesake to appear in the big leagues and now he has. lol

[@ACD1994]

Fun video. You have some cool pickups too. I'm about 2 hours from Cumberland. Might have to check it out. Thanks for sharing

[@AshMorton]

Nice wax haul!

[@ChrisC1677]

Sweet pickups!

[@gillyazie55]

Good stuff.

[@mitchjohnson4970]

Kaybee toy store pack? Definitely wasn't expecting that

[@scottyarms78]

I would have grabbed that SNL box. Chris Farley and Phil Hartman autos in there.

[@psychosem17]

Man if that 59 Bazooka Mays is still there when you go back I'd love to have it.

[@mitchjohnson4970]

Tons of vintage wax boxes! I can't ever find any wax boxes like that. I'm relegated to scouring ebay

[@yo420ia]

40 year old man on Power Pad = Achilles Blowout

[@KustryRuntz]

Kool Aid watch sick bro, think I saw a no name Big Hurt in one those rubber band packs😂

[@user-wh1td2lx2u]

Actually you picked up quite a good amount of stuff actually and they're all good stuff I cannot wait to see you open the packs and those old Fairfield repacks those ones are pretty good actually

[@jasonmcclain5124]

Wow $55 for that wax collection that’s great.

[@michaeldellobuono1858]

i really like the Marichal Stamp. There's guys on some of the Facebook pages selling them a lot. Most of the time they are over priced.

[@Mikeygee99]

My new slogan is “Every once of me”!

[@MontanaGman]

That Jordan is one of my worst trades when I traded it and most of the rest of that for a 86 Puckett Donruss. The only other trade worse than that was not trading my 86 Topps Clemens for a Mantle first year topps because I didn't want to break the factory set.

[@alotozynski77]

That store sticker on the 93 upper deck box is from Value City department stores which went out of business a decade or so ago.

[@thepastisalive]

Good call!

[@WallyMoon56]

I tried to get that same listing on FB market place but you beat me to it 😂

[@jeepolay]

My good buddy from Duncansville, his buddy owns Leighty store and the property that the flea market is held on. 7:40 e

[@Novinsld]

Man, that box of packs at the end there was amazing, why cnt i find good stuff like that ?

[@gluedtothesprue7762]

I can't wait to see what Magic cards you've got in that box- fingers crossed you have some absolute bangers. My main card area of knowledge is Magic- having only just come to baseball cards this year as a kinda side-effect of it.

[@thepastisalive]

I wasn’t planning on making a video on them but since there seems to be some interest, I just might now. I have a bunch of Yu-gi-oh too that I know nothing about

[@gluedtothesprue7762]

@@thepastisaliveawesome, I look forward to it! If you want any tips on how to work out what you’ve got with the Magic stuff, give me a shout 👍

[@marcusstanley96]

Skenes for 8$ will be solid down the line

[@Rubberneck1965]

Flip through those MTG cards on a video. I've been playing since 94 and buy/sell frequently. I could spot search and lyk very quickly if you have anything of note.

[@hugebilina57]

Nice box of packs. Those bowman first are the paper version. Worth quite a bit less.

[@thepastisalive]

Wish I could’ve grabbed some chrome but the guy only had paper. Thanks for watching.

[@hugebilina57]

@@thepastisalive absolutely. Love your channel. The knowledge of error cards u have is ridiculous. Im sure u find a bunch in 5-10 cent boxes all day.

[@Andrew.Gardner]

open them all! preferably on camera

[@elbertgober9356]

I would have bought all the stamps. lol

[@terrymyers699]

I just sent Skenes his '24 Bowman Chrome Refractory to (hopefully) get signed. I now it's a Hail Mary attempt but I have to rep my local OC hometown boy, right? 🤞🤞

[@andrewmeyers6243]

You a Bucco Guy....what do you think about Mike Kennedy hopefully coming up...? Lefty Pitcher

[@mitchjohnson4970]

What kind of monster rubber bands cards together

[@seeweda]

Jon are you aware they remade Alexander horrible day in 2014 with Jennifer Garner and Steve Carrel as his parents?

[@TheRmm1976]

Power pad is a cool item, too bad they only had a few games for it. And pretty sure they all sucked.

[@Luciddreamer007]

Enjoyed your slow camera movement- I can take it all in easier …. Lots of eye Candy fo’ sure. Also cool beats & background jams.

[@altonmahaffeethesleeplessd1229]

First like ! First comment ??

[@callmet2895]

Love the 87’ products!!!

[@philipwoodward6186]

I love your videos, and I am Hard of Hearing, so thank you for captioning them! I don't recognize those 1961 stamps, but I have a Bob Lemon stamp, so I might have something similar. 🙂⚾️📨
