I can’t put my finger on a number, but for example every time a new Magic the Gathering Arena Set comes out he buys packs until he has a play set of nearly every rare. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was more than five figures annually.
I have a friend that drops hundreds on Apex Legends every time there is a “Collection Event” which means “Obtain all 20 of these items and get a special item that you can’t get again very easily.”
Phew, I’m so glad I switched to 3d-printing/war-gaming. That is absurd.
What sucks is this will likely sell “well” too. I have a buddy of mine that is a “whale” and he eats this shit up
What’s the craziest they bought that you know of?
