Welcome to RippingWax.com
Ripping Wax is a true pioneer in the sports cards and collectibles industry, and the #1 source for group pack openings–also known as “breaking”. Founded in 2011 by collectibles industry veteran David Gelfman, Ripping Wax’s “breaks” give serious hobbyists and beginners alike the opportunity to collect cards for their favorite teams or divisions in a very cost effective manner. The concept is simple. You purchase “spots” in a group opening, and our reputable breaking teams rip the packs as you watch them live on stream. There are many types of breaks, but one popular type of break is a Pick Your Team (PYT) Break, in which you buy into a specific team (or multiple teams) prior to the breaking. As the packs are ripped open (whether you are watching it live on stream or not) every card pulled for your team(s) belongs to you! This is a truly innovative way of collecting that has only recently become possible with the advances of live video streaming technology. Before breaking existed, collectors would need to purchase thousands of dollars worth of cases to pull the number of desired team-specific cards that they can now obtain for a fraction of the cost by participating in group breaks. So whether you are a serious hobbyist that has been collecting for years, or someone brand new to collecting, we invite you to join us.
