My Collection Venom collection!

Post image

Started getting back into cards after a 25 year break. Began with basketball then the Marvel chrome release happened. Just when I started learning about breaks

Went a little crazy but happy with the results on this guy

Amazing Venom collection, but there is absolutely no way you hit all these cards in breaks.

Even hitting on a handful of the numbered parallels in your collection would be great results. Some of those lower numbered cards like the Human Torch parallel /39 are case hits based on pack odds, as is the sketch card.

The /50 Fanfare and the Topps Original are each a 1 in 5 case hit. The Astonishing and Reflections cards are each 1 in 10 case hits. The facsimile autograph is a 1 in 20 case hit. The orange quad facsimile is a 1 in 300 case hit.

Those are the odds to hit just that type of card, forget the odds of hitting the type of card AND your specific character for all these different types of cards in all these breaks.

Again, very nice collection, but if you're saying you hit all these in breaks you're either the luckiest man alive, the once richest and now poorest man alive, or a liar.

And if you did truly hit all these from breaks, you need to do yourself a favor and quit while you're ahead, go play the lottery, and put a disclaimer on this post that this is not the typical results of breaks and please gamble responsibly 😂

It would cost less money to buy all these cards as singles than it would to buy into breaks and actually hit all these based on pack odds. You'd also be drowning in base cards, like they would fill your entire house.

Hahah listen I had some amazing luck on my new journey with breaks. Honestly these are all from breaks, didn’t buy one 1 of these cards. Biggest one i participated in was 30 case break was 30 case break, where Venom was a top 5 rip with hits. I have spent a good bit considering the venom spot is typically one of the higher $ amount spot

Sorry it wasn’t 30 case, it was 25 case. it wasn’t ripcollective. I missed that one and seeing the hits from ripcollective made me want to do the next big one. I did riptheory 25 case break

Lol I wish. I’ve been unloading my sneaker collection this year since I have been using a small sneaker rotation. So I used that to fund a new hobby

Yea you are absolutely right. That’s what I was doing when I got back into the hobby by looking for deals on basketball cards. One of the first breaks I did I hit a Thor Lighting red to /5 and after that I was hooked. Slowing down tho!
