Breaking Question

[SammySosa]

hi-

I've been considering jumping into the breaking world, I know, i know... here's what i'm looking for insight around.. Bowman Chrome 2 Case player break went for a total of $5200. Minus ebay fees.. and cost of product you are under water $1400. Fanatics and Topps (dealer relationships) are really the only way to get this product at a reasonable enough cost. Am i missing something?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think as of last year, eBay tightened up who can run breaks and its only pre-approved sellers now and not just anyone who wants to (see here and you can probably find info from around June/July last year I want to say online when they made the change - https://pages.ebay.com/breaks/#ac-4)

Yeah they did- i'm not concerned with that piece, i can wade thru it. It's really just how to get product at a price to consistently turn a profit. And honestly, I think maybe it's just not possible.

No, you pretty much need to be a Fanatics-affiliated dealer to make the money work.
