I decided to try the Box of Crap business that is so popular right now. So I bought some shit and when it gets here I will proceed to shove it in boxes to sell to people with too much money for more than I paid but less than the items are worth. I could only afford enough to make 10 boxes though, so you know, baby steps.
Just wanted to keep everyone updated on the boring shit that is my life. :skip:

I'm curious how that goes because a box of crap is a box off crap... unless you get lucky and some old granny sells her son's old stuff that contains the original script for star wars in a dusty attic...

Are those purposely made boxes of crap? I thought you meant trying your luck at a garage sale or something. Old people selling crap for 5 cents a hipster might buy for 20$

Oh, no. But thats not a terrible idea, there ARE a lot of hipsters out there. Buy stuff for a nickel at yard sales, clean it up and sell it to hipsters. Perfect scam.

No, I think he's trying to start up a Nithiel Crate. Sorry to say, but that sounds like fail given the market saturation (as you mentioned above). Good luck, though.
I thought the Loot Crate thing was stupid and I didn't even know there were so many variants.

Well, I'm not going to make it a subscription thing or anything. I'm probably just going to throw them on ebay. Lol.
