It’s really hard to get over the pack rip oxytocin, especially for a kid. The biggest way to recoup is really just to stop buying them as often. Way easier said than done but the idea that I’ve had some luck with to stay distracted from packs are scavenger hunts with the cards you already have. Have your son try to find cards of a certain era, a certain team or a certain player. Only find players who hit 30 HRs for example or only players who switch hit. It can totally be done with base cards and dead inventory but would still have some sentimental value to you and your son since it’s something you guys did together. You can even make it a competition if you want to make it more fun. The important thing is that it still keeps both of you in the card game but also gives you a chance to sell off inventory without constantly bringing new stuff in from packs that dig the hole deeper and start seeing some net gains. Even better, it can help him learn about stats, historic players and the game itself, not just the value of the card.

One other potential idea is to find a different aspect of the hobby to embrace. I spent a LOT of $$$ on high end stuff and breaks and wax in a way that was really unfulfilling. The aspect of collecting I have evolved into is finding cards - players, photos, designs - that I actually love and bring me joy. There is nothing worse than a big $$$ spend on wax or a break and just feeling like you blew it. And I usually focus on more affordable role player guys. Orion Kerkering, TJ McConnell, Prizm 2022 Lane Johnson cards. It makes a huge difference in my approach to the hobby.

Rock on Card Collector Father ! The honesty you shared finally touched apart of my hobby heart. Hardly any dads or just men talk about their Personal Financial situations in the hobby. I have a crazy technique in which I only buy what I sell in my store. My awesome Wife made the rule and so far it’s worked great. Unless I save cash into my account then I transfer funds into our Personal family account to buy new releases etc.. My suggestion too is to stop buying Retail as much as possible. Exceptions are big releases. ANOTHER BIG CHANGE I MADE IS -I buy singles instead of retail off of Mecari or other platforms. When you open new accounts you get free money. In those accounts I gave a few hundred here and there. Selling singles or mini lites is fun Taking pictures etc. make this process fun with your son. My daughter is 10 and my son is 4. I get them involved as much as I can. I’ve done 3 shows and they sold items then bought cards from the sale etc. Thank You Hobby Dad Good Luck man !! We are the dads that change children’s lives for the better ! This stuff is “ Dads Time” and try to make it fun and less stressful. Thanks guys

Needs to put together a trading group. Post on fb for like minded individuals that might want to do a weekly or monthly trade night. I’d be happy to host one in Waukegan Illinois if you want to get the ball rolling. I have a large amount of space, a restaurant and a bar that are attached. Could be a hang out type of thing. DM me
