OP here, that's the plan...at least with one of them. Dude was selling them $3 each, but I'm only seeing these going for double that on ebay and stuff.

OPEN THEM NOW

However much you can make by selling them isn't worth the nostalgia of opening them.

I'm weighing the pros and cons. I am really thinking the potential of finding some awesome old cards outweighs the need for profit.

Just for fun, a list of cool holo cards you could potentially pull:

Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres
Dragonite
Raichu
Haunter and Gengar
Muk
Aerodactyl
Ditto

And those are just holos, the artwork on some of the commons and uncommons in Fossil is great.

First, I had a Holo Ditto years ago. I got it from a Fossil pack the same time my younger brother got his Holo Charizard from another pack. Someone stole it shortly after, it'd be nice to find one again.

Also, recording shortly

Sweet! I still have that Horsea card somewhere. My mom sold all my cards at a yardsale about 10 years ago. I think it was 25 cents per holo, and 10 cents for anything else.

It's a bitter smell, but in that fantastic, "new card" smell. Smells like money well spent, and old memories brought back.

Thanks, I had fun doing this. I was just glad to find these things (the guy selling them apparently just had a whole box, basically unopened, lying around all these years. He didn't see any value in them, so he was getting rid of all 20 packs).
