How old is the concept of Magic the gathering and buying cards packs? I remember buying stickers and trading cards back in the eighties.
Basically the physical version of "Loot boxes" something the market accepted ages ago.
People were trading baseball cards long before that.
But part of that was because they game with bubble gum....and the cards were bonuses....then people wanted to get the full set...but the bubble gum was the product not the cards.....now it's skip the gum and mass produce fake collectables
