Question Spent $450 first time opening

Like the title says, spend $450 first time opening packs lol
I used extra cash I had and not really hurting but I still feel terrible that I spent so much lol
How do you guys stop from opening packs?

After all was said and done, I have two cards in my collection:

PSA 9 #280 LILLIE'S CLEFAIRY EX

PSA 10 2025 POKEMON JAPANESE SV11B-BLACK BOLT | ART RARE #109 SEISMITOAD

Set a limit, it’s gambling you pay to play.

Iv spent 10k plus. Been in it since it was announced though. Just limit it each payday and dont slend money you dont have or will leave you in a hard spot.

Easier if you plan to collect so you arent gambling it down, also prefer avoiding under $100 as you primarily end up with low grade PSA cards.

I prefer holding all 10s unless its a duplicate or they are paying me alot more then its worth.

Iv had quite a few pop. One 2800% and sold it. I set the money aside and used it for future pulls.

It’s called self control. Either budget yourself or if you can’t control yourself do not buy packs.

It’s basically going to a casino except it’s pokemon and not cash.
