Back in August 2013 on Show #136 I suggest how companies need to start selling direct to the consumer more.

Advice to new breakers: Start small. New breakers need customers, not profits, so do everything you can to bring in potential customers. Treat each new customer like gold.

Been away for about a month so there’s a mix of news that we cover on today’s show. 2014 Topps Chrome Football taught anyone that didn’t know already that Topps makes products ‘to order’ … so if everyone orders it – the product ends up being a dud. Looks like Topps is doing group breaks
On today’s show I blast off more on the 2014 Panini Flawless cards that Panini’s CEO Mark Warsop originally called “mistakenly labeled.” We now know more cards are effected and it’s clear Panini didn’t mislabel all these cards.

The Golden Age of being a group breaker is about to end. I’m not saying group breaking is going away, actually it will become apart of the sports card collecting fabric even more as we move on … but that will make it harder to become a breaker yourself. Don’t worry though, “Golden Ages” exist
