Break Point helps figure out how many drops you need to buy before one becomes “free.” Because let’s be real — we all want that freebie drop for the shelf! 😎 How It Works: 1️⃣ Add up the lowest Foil + Non-Foil values. 2️⃣ Subtract fees, shipping, and the drop cost to find Net Profit. 3️⃣ Divide total profit by drop cost = your BP. Example: If a drop costs $40 and nets $80 → BP 2 If it nets $55 → BP 4 💡 Pro Tip: Prices often dip right after shipping but usually rebound (or climb higher) 10–16 months later.
