This weekend I started thinking about how to make the site more interactive and fun.  My wife had suggested an idea a month ago about opening up older wax and then giving it away on the site.  Using that as a base I came up with the idea that we could do a box a week.  Nothing new, instead we break wax from 1995 to 2005.  Whatever I can find for less than $50 on eBay.  We would do it once a week, we could either do it pack based (each entrant gets a pack), or team based.  Then I would send it out to you and we would do it all over again the next week.

The reason for this is simple, many of us came back into collecting in the past few years.  I thought it would be fun to open up some wax from a time when we weren’t collecting.    The price would be cheap, like $5 per group break and that covers paypal charges and shipping and supply charges.  That would also alow us to get more than one box per break or even one real expensive box per break. I am going to have to get a video camera, and I’ll film each break so that you know it’s all legit.

I’m hoping we can find a core group of people to do this and maintain the $5 per slot.  I figure the price is such that it’s not a back breaker, it’s the equivalent of buying a pack of cards.  Let me know if you are interested.  I think it would be pretty fun.  We can all relish in the chance at an older rookie card, or if you want an old hero of yours (even it it wasn’t worth anything).  Leave some comments whether or not you want in and how you would want it to go.
