From what it sounds like is they were stealing from each transaction so if a box rang up $30 they glitched the system to show it as $25 and pocketed the $5 They also have much more than just cards they also sell autographed photos, they sell clothing and other various sports related items

Don't think about the base that would come from Topps or Score. Think high-end boxes. How much space will the cards from a case of Spectra, Panini Black, Ultimate Collection, Five Star, Tier One, Museum, Dominion, Prime, NT, etc. take up? One monster box can easily hold the cards from $50K-$100K of packs.

You can easily fit 11 cases in any home and sell them within a week. You are not holding those cases for long term. You want quick cash.

I don't know where the $20 million number comes from, but I'm sure that's revenue and not profit. Considering that most cases are over $1,000 (and with stuff like Immaculate at $2,600 and Flawless at $3,500) I could see them pushing $20 million in revenue each year.

I'm thinking the net profit is in the 400-500k range max and that's probably high.

Not even buy one get one free. Says "additional boxes" so they could have bought and then ordered 5-10 more for free!
