What I see is them asking $270 (!!!) for 120 cards. 12 boosters of 10 cards each, for $270 is just insanity to me. Right out of the gate you're spending $2.25 per CARD. The first and last collector booster box I ever opened was for Neon Dynasty and even those 12 packs felt bad given the cost. I remember trying to stretch it out over two days. This feels even worse for the same exact price and I just cannot understand who is paying it.

Collector's Boosters have always felt like a ripoff to me. I was surprised they sold as well as they did. But I guess even a small number of whales dropping a bunch of money on those boosters are enough to make it worthwhile
