EXTREMELY RARE 1996 FLEER SKYBOX USA BASKETBALL SEALED HOBBY BOX 3D CARDS! READ!

Description: HI! PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY AND IN ITS ENTIRETY BEFORE YOU PURCHASE! (It will take you less than 2 minutes.) First things first. NO DISCOUNT. Ever. I do not offer discounts on any of my Buy It Now listings for the past 24 years. ALL MY PRICES ARE FAIR. Because they have to be. This is NOT my hobby. THIS IS HOW I TRY TO EARN A LIVING FOR THE PAST 28 YEARS, INCLUDING THE LAST 24 YEARS ON EBAY. That means I have to sell my items in a timely manner. Otherwise, my wife will say something like this: "Hey, Jerry, when are you going to make a deposit at the bank?" Fortunately that has not happened often in the past 28 years. If you look on eBay, you will find that the 1996 Fleer USA Basketball is an incredibly difficult item to find. Matter of act, the last time I looked--several weeks ago--I was the only person selling the item on eBay or any other site! How can that be? THE PRINT RUN FOR THIS PRODUCT WAS BREATHTAKINGLY LOW BECAUSE MICHAEL JORDAN HAD ANNOUNCED IN 1994 THAT HE DID NOT PLAN TO PLAY FOR THE 1996 US OLYMPIC TEAM. Because he didn't, Fleer essentially printed this product to order. Without Michael in the set, what percentage of dealers ordered it? My guess is LESS THAN 3%, based on conversations I had with dealers 27 years ago. I believe I ordered more of this box than anyone. My four children will each inherit 72 boxes (four cases each) of the 1996 Fleer 1996 USA Basketball. For real. However, they will not inherit one box of this version, which has a different box design and packaging than the ones I purchased 27 years ago. In fact, this is the only box like this I have seen in 15 years! So if you think the "regular" box was a short print, what about this incredibly scarce version? Although this is far rarer than the regular version, I am pricing this LOWER per pack than my other Fleer version that is currently on eBay. This box contains 36 packs, NOT 18, and five cards per pack. This is a Buy It Now listing for a factory sealed HOBBY box of the 1996 Fleer Skybox USA Basketball, which features the NBA stars who won the 1996 Olympic Gold Medal in basketball. I firmly believe that if Jordan had played for the US team in 1996, sealed boxes today would be going for more than $4,000 a box--at least! That would be true even if they had quadrupled the production run! For more than 25 years, I had never sold any of these boxes on eBay. Until 2022. Since then, I have sold more than a 25 boxes of the other version of this box on eBay. There are 52 cards in the set. The only insert is a Heroes set--one every 18 packs. In each pack, there is a 3D card, along with four other cards. Loaded with Hall of Famers like Shaq, Stockton, Malone, Pippen, Miller, and the rest of the gold medal winners of the 1996 Olympics. Again, I am selling this only box with the alternate design for the same price as the "regular" Fleer USA box. It's $168.88. Not a penny more. Not a penny less. The rules: 1) No discount. You either want it or you don't. If you want it, the price is $168.88. If you don't want it, you would be overpaying by $168.88. 2) Please add $18.80 for insured shipping if you live in the continental U.S. I also ship worldwide through Ebay's International Shipping Program. Ebay charges a fee for this service, so check Ebay for details. I have shipped to 30 countries and all 50 states in the U.S.! 3) Payment is due within three days of purchase. 4) Paypal preferred, but other forms of payment are fine, too. 5) I am proud of my feedback on Ebay, encompassing more than 7,700 separate transactions over the past 24 years. If you have a couple more minutes, please check my other listings. I specialize in rare but affordable collectibles and memorabilia with major focus on five areas of investment: sports cards, framed and unframed photos, Beanie Babies, Marilyn Monroe items (somebody has to do it!), and Pokemon cards and plush. 6) The most important rule of all--DON'T FORGET RULE NUMBER ONE! Thanks for reading this far. And if you have a question, keep it to yourself. (Just kidding!) Thanks. Jerry
