We do it by team on the card.

Pick your team can be more expensive/cheaper depending on what team. Braves/Cubs are way more expensive because of prospects and because they're just popular.

The last PYT i saw, the Cubs were $75 and were the most expensive.

Dude, relax.

Go to eBay, type in Insert Team Name Box Break (or Case Break).

Bid. Watch the break at the scheduled time. Receive cards a week later.

It isn't rocket science.

I pulled a 23/60 Kobe auto today. Got some other sweet stuff the freaking football ones are murdering me sticking to bball

ETA: also got a to 60 Ingram, a to 10 Deontae Davis auto, a to 99 Hield die cut auto, a to 35 die cut Vince auto and some other random crap. The Kobe card will pay for the whole thing.

We could do one, I just don't know who all would want to.

May start a thread about it this week.

Just got in cheap for New Orleans Saints. Watched an entire video of breaks and I probably wasted my money but what the hell

I mean on those group break forums it looks fairly simple. The tricky part is setting up the stream and getting supplies/shipping etc. Some guys use their hands while others use gloves. You just get people to pay you and claim a spot.

But you have to figure for the person running you have to
- figure out shipping costs per person
- figure out case costs
- get addresses for everyone
- get plastic sleeves with the harder plastic sleeves
- get the hard cases in case any rares
- have stream device
- set up stream
- get gloves so there aren't fingerprints on everything

It's some leg work I wouldn't mind doing a couple and paying a convenience fee if you set it up. What would be really fun in gauging interest is to pick out 3 cases from the 3 major MSB sports and have people sign up to participate random teams in all 3. More work, but I think you'd find more interest, and it would be a bomb arse experience to see cases from the 3 major sports and get to experience something new. Would just be a unique way of doing it and be a fun way to stretch it out and maybe get some neat shite.

I've got a Twitch channel (I mean no one watches it lol) and all that.

I could use shipping information and what not through Paypal.

But yeah, hard cases, gloves and that other shite I hadn't thought about.

Certain teams cost more. That's the problem. The pels were expensive AF. The Lakers and Cowboys are used as fillers to get people to buy random teams. I just got lucky and got Lakers.

It'd be really tough for someone running their first one to price these teams. Pels cost almost double the Bulls which had wade, butler, Pippen etc as options.

My point is it'd have to be random.

Also Kobe and VC up

Been there. Done that. I spent a lot on a draft break one time. I got stuck with one of the lowest draft spots. I got a low value autograph out of it. I knew going in breaks like that are boom or bust.

You would get a chance to bid on the teams you want. You don't just get the teams you want because you want them.

That's the part that will make it hard to pull off on TD unless it's one set price per team and it's first come first served.

I don't follow NBA that closely, but yeah. Not all teams are created equally in these breaks. For MLB, it's harder to fill teams like Padres, Mariners, Marlins, Diamondbacks because they don't have the die hard collecting base as some other teams do. Plus, teams like Red Sox, Yankees, Scrubs have more HOF'ers, stars, rookies, or prospects in the product. So that's why some teams have to be cheaper.

Sure, eBay breaks are set up that way. But I've been in breaks on Blowout that I did get to pick the team I wanted. It just varies.

It's crazy, in every PYT break I've been in I don't get shite.

Like the one the other night where I got that Chris Sale auto was one where I had Chi White Sox, Pittsburgh Pirates and like the Phillies

I kind of like the destiny and what not that comes into it.
