Today I hit my favorite card shop. I was bargain hunting, as usual. I ended up buying about 10 boxed sets of various types, all for a buck each. Some were sealed, while others were opened already.
My plan was to open all of them anyway to pull the DODGERS, rookies and better players and then dump the rest into my insert trade box, so I didn't care if they were not sealed.
When I got to the 87 Fleer set, it was soon apparent this was not a full set. The first three cards in the box were Greg Maddux!!! Can't be too upset when you are getting extras of one of the best cards in the set. In the end, I had triples of many cards, doubles of some, singles and was missing maybe 1/4 of the set, including McGwire, McGriff and some others. Still, I didn't mind.
