BBCE will begin Phase 2 of reopening authentication on October 20, 2026.
In addition to continuing to accept items from Phase 1 (all factory-sealed cases containing items that can be wrapped as From a Sealed Case), we will now accept the following:
- Pre-1986 baseball unopened boxes
- Pre-1988 football unopened boxes
- Pre-1990/91 basketball unopened boxes
- Pre-1989/90 hockey unopened boxes
There are two exceptions to these guidelines: we will also accept 1989 Score football boxes and 1989 Upper Deck baseball boxes.
The submission form for the items we are currently accepting has been reposted under the Authentication tab on our website.
Please refrain from submitting any items that are not included on this list. We are still not accepting traded sets or factory sets at this time.
Thanks,
The BBCE Team
