💡 What’s a Break Point (BP)?

BP = How many you need to buy to get one free based on resale value.

Buy smart... maybe even flip one to pay for the rest!

Break Point (BP) helps determine how many drops you need to buy to get one essentially free — because let’s be honest, we all want one for the collection!

How it works:

1️⃣ Add up the lowest Foil and Non-Foil values.

2️⃣ Subtract fees, shipping, and drop cost to find Net Profit.

3️⃣ Divide total profit by the cost of one drop to get your BP.

🔍 Example:

If a drop costs $40 and has a Net Profit of $80, buying 2 covers the cost of one. (BP 2)

If Net Profit is $55, you’d need 4 drops to break even. (BP 4)

💡 Pro Tip: Prices often dip after shipping but tend to recover or even rise 10–16 months later — patience can pay off!
