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?
  
  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.
  
  At least Magic cards are physical goods.
  Edit: But apparently, MtG Arena is digital.
  
  You sweet summer child. He means MtG Arena, the online version. They are not physical goods.
  
  ?!
  Wtf, then.
  
  Spending entire monthly savings on Eve online
  
  In 2024 that’s weapons grade retarded.
  
  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."
