I have a friend who as been going crazy on some app/website where you bid on getting cards and they rip them live in front of you, I dont know which one.  He literally does it all hours of the day and night.  Then I have to hear the stories of the cards he gets over and over.  I hope he gets over this soon.  I dont think he is being profitable at this point.  Seems like has to bid at least 60$ per rip and then you end up with a shitty team.  So far he has got two really good cards tho.  A 1 of 1 bryce harper card that comes in some type of glass frame.  He also got a Cooper Flagg rookie card.  But his ROI has to be terrible.  

HaHa it’s probably Whatnot. It is addicting I did it for probably 2-3 months. I turned a profit but it was a combination of luck and knowing when to buy in.


 I would do one break a week that cost probably between $50-$250. I was buying in on Monday afternoons when teams were going at their lowest. 


Most of the ones I got into were repack breaks and not new cards (wax). I’d say overall I spent 3k and sold about 4k. What kills it is eBay fees and then packing the cards up and shipping them got annoying. I think biggest card I hit was a 1/1 Josh Allen Auto. Sold it on eBay for about $1400. 


I stopped buying in but I still watch backyard breaks on whatnot maybe once a week. Only cards I got left was a cheap Wemby Roomie card PSA 10 and a Elly rookie auto PSA 10 that when I bought it was about $150. Some of the big breaks they do have guys bidding 20k for a random team. With the top card in the break worth about 55k.

I’ve been after this one for a while, one of my favorite cards growing up.

Looks like a solid 6 as well….corners and borders.
