This is the same formula that the card manufacturers have been using for the last 20 or so years, except they were doing it with packs and inserts. Buy a pack and you get a chance to come away with a card worth 50-100x (or more) than what you paid for the pack.

Now set breakers are just following the same tried and true formula, but now targeting vintage collectors, who were previously untapped by the modern day schemes.

Enterprising organizations cashing in on our affinity for lottery type games.
