Hey guys,
I know we've talked about this before, and I've said something similar before. If you're not comfortable with it, certainly don't do it. For what it's worth, here is the way I see set breaks:
1. You are buying a card from a specific set.
2. The value of the card you happen to get determined by a secondary market.
3. Given 1 and 2, I see set breaks like this similarly to what card companies do when they create a product - some cards have higher demand or lower supply (or both), and are therefore worth more on the secondary market.
The difference is that set breakers are not creating the product; they're outsourcing from several decades ago.
This, of course, is all just my opinion. I'm not a lawyer, and I do have skin the game.
P.S. I do give away a spot in each of my breaks. Does that eliminate consideration? I don't know. I feel like it's a fun way to spread the word - if it helps with the consideration piece, then that's great too.
