    I'm still trying to grasp why/how people are willing to pay so much for these "moments" or video clips. It seems dumb to me you can find these video clips online for free, I'd rather invest in cards. That said, it seems that people are willing to pay a lot for these things and some have made a ton of money. I haven't tried it yet but will probably throw in $50-$100 next time packs drop and mess around a bit and see if i can make any money.

    Yeah its a little silly to me as well......but it has a lot of backing and like you said.....toss some $ in early and if it takes off....possibly a good return....hve to imagine this is aimed at the overseas market...

    Yep. Even though I don't really get the allure, I'll probably try it out here soon and maybe a small risk can get a nice return as you said.

    Paper, a buddy of mine started on there a month or 2 ago and invested around $50 to try and mess around and now he tells me his account holdings are worth close to 2k? I'm still trying to wrap my head around why people are willing to shell out so much money for these moments.

    Looks like there is a pre-order this morning where you are guaranteed a pack. I'm going to jump in and see what's up.

    I already had an account but was able to join the queue. I think they might have temporarily disabled anyone setting up a new account for now. It seems like they are overwhelmed by the demand every time they put packs up for sale.
