OpenThatPack Debuts Virtual Trading Card Marketplace, Aims to End Scalping and High Markups
OpenThatPack, a virtual trading card marketplace, is eliminating scalping, inflated prices, and the frustration of sold-outreleases by offering unlimited pack openings backed by real cards. By combining digital convenience with physicalcollectibles, the platform ensures fair pricing and constant availability for collectors worldwide.
"Spending hours at a store only to find empty shelves or overpriced resales is frustrating," says Robert Wein, Founder ofOpenThatPack. "We created OpenThatPack to make collecting easy-no resellers, no insane prices, just instant access tothe packs you want."
No More Scarcity or Markups
OpenThatPack provides unlimited access to packs and boxes-even hard-to-find sets-so collectors don't have to visitmultiple stores or bid on secondary markets. Each virtual pack is linked to real trading cards held in trust until userseither request physical delivery or sell them back to the platform. By eliminating traditional retail overhead andmiddlemen, OpenThatPack ensures cheaper prices while keeping inventory available 24/7.
Scalpers have long been a problem in the trading card world, buying up stock in bulk and flipping packs at double ortriple retail prices. OpenThatPack removes this frustration by offering direct access to inventory without the risks of face-to-face transactions or price gouging. "Some packs may naturally trade above MSRP due to demand," Wein explains, "butour goal is to prevent extreme markups while providing a safe, reliable way to collect."
Fair Pricing and Simple User Experience
When users open packs on OpenThatPack, the experience mirrors the excitement of physically tearing into foilwrappers. Cards appear on screen, flipping over one by one to reveal what's inside. If a user wants the physicalcards, the platform offers express global shipping. For duplicates or lower-value pulls, a built-in buyback systemprovides instant resale options at competitive prices.
"Our buyback program often beats typical market rates," Wein notes. "Collectors don't have to deal with listing auctions,negotiating with buyers, or packing and shipping-it's all handled in one click." High-value cards can also be cashed outimmediately through the platform's proprietary system, giving collectors instant liquidity.
Addressing Collector Frustrations
Beyond fair pricing, OpenThatPack solves many frustrations collectors face. The platform offers high-demand and out-of-print sets, eliminating the disappointment of waiting in line only to leave empty-handed. It also removes the risks ofmeeting strangers for trades or sales.
"One of the biggest advantages is convenience," says Wein. "People can use OpenThatPack from their living room, ontheir phone during a commute, or even while on vacation. No more waiting, no more overpaying, and no more worryingabout whether a seller is legit."
Looking Ahead
Currently focused on Pokemon, Yu-Gi-Oh!, MTG, and Japanese sets, OpenThatPack plans to expand its inventory based oncollector demand. Future features will include tournaments, gamified missions, and a community marketplace to enhancethe experience.
"It's a new concept, and some might be skeptical," Wein acknowledges. "That's why we offer a $10 deposit option-soanyone can try it with minimal risk. We built this platform out of personal frustration with the traditional trading cardmarket. Opening a pack should be fun, not stressful or overpriced."
