The bending/twisting method is how ! broke them up but the flaking/tearing was evident on 90% of the cards. I think that is the best way as well but very frustrating when you know what the end result will be.

Yup.  I have had to throw out many cards from those sets that brick because they weren't even passable. But it is the only way that I have seen where they do come apart.

Ok, so I cracked one of the boxes and opened 4 packs.  They are SLIGHTLY bricked, which I imagine is common for the cards from those times.  I was able to seperate all the cards with a couple with very minor flaking.  Didn't notice til I went back through the stack a second time......

With that....would anyone be interested in purchasing/trading for any of the packs I still have left (since I cracked the box)....Chance to pull a Jeter rookie?!?!?!  Looking at current/recent prices, I would say about $3-$4 a pack would be fair.  If interested, shoot me an offer!!!

As Sandy said and also Silica gel packs. You can buy them I bought 500 of them.  And never freeze the cards that will only make it worse. You want to get rid of the moisture not make it rock hard and stronger.
