Hi All,
Hopefully this post is allowed, if not Admin please let me know.
I am a long time collector but have been put off by price of a lot of breaks, in particular with the rising costs everywhere else hobbies are typically the first thing to go. As a big hockey fan, I would love to collect this more and build a solid community in Australia for it.
I have frequently seen other breakers put product up at +50% on cost, while I understand they are in it to make money it doesn't help collectors. I am ideally hoping to find a stable group of collectors to break hockey with that would be interested in doing so at cost prices (cost of boxes, cost of shipping etc) and it that means we get to break 50% extra boxes that's a huge win!
I'm not super picky on the boxes that we break, I'm guessing that it would be lower cost stuff mostly but with a stable group we could set a schedule of routine cheaper boxes and some more expensive stuff intermittently to suit the budgets of the people involved and the cost of boxes at the time. Cost per person wise, I am open to discussion with a group for this but I imagine we would just divide the box price by the total number of hits for that product and then multiply it out for each team so your paying for your odds of a hit. I would just use the tables of Break Ninja if that worked for everyone.
With all of that said, my DM's are open if people want to ask questions as well as below, and if we are able to get a group together i am looking to take the Flyers. Ideally 31 other breakers would be involved but if we can get 8 to do half divisions or something that would be a great start.
I have put Hockey in brackets in the title as I would be open to helping out collectors in other sports do at cost breaks if there was a group of them, but I personally wouldn't be involved myself as I am only looking to collect hockey at the moment. Given I am starting off here and have a new account and my involvement to date in collectibles is somewhat limited for references, I am open to setting up a collateral with a trusted member of our group/the community in the short term until the group is comfortable with me running our breaks.
I am really hoping to get a group together as I am excited to get fully absorbed back into the hobby but current break prices are prohibitive in the long run for me.
Thanks
