Online Box Breaks??
I am just curious what everyone here thinks about breaks on feeBay and other box breaking sites. In some respects I like the idea of spending much less than what a box costs but you also miss out on a lot. I have participated in a few with mixed results. I have also done pick a packs which was very interesting. All previous hits were listed and it seemed exactly like buying packs in the store. Anyone have any thoughts on either of these topics?

I don't like Feebay breaks. I do breaks only from a trusted site or buy my own boxes.

I personally buy into certain ones and have hosted a few. I have only done one off of eBay though. It's all according to what you're looking for and what you're ok with giving up. You get a chance at some stuff for a smaller fee but it's usually hit or miss.

I dont do them. Too easy for someone to buy 2 boxes and video both and post the worst one. Live breaks however is a little different, I wont do them but atleast its a little less of a scam.

If you do them, go with someone with a good reputation, for example, Chris with The Hobby Box. He has built a trust with his group breaks and does them live on Blog TV.

there are way too many ways to scam with group breaks. the majority play some kind of games with the break (or even the bidding). even the ones with video
