Although Gen 5 is fine, it makes sense why they chose this generation to the special set. It’s the first game with a new roster since gen 1. No repeats of the 151 set
If GameStop was smart they would bundle the product with some other garbage. They would move inventory and it may discourage scaling. If not, they would move unsellables and still make money.
It’s not hard, make a pre order an actual pre order. Limit to one (like they did) and then let anyone order it who wants to. Close the pre order and take however long you need to print. Everyone wins. I will wait a year for msrp if need be
I’m on team Justin lol. It’s surging, prismatic, journey, and destined now. All have cards valued in the hundreds of dollars, if not thousands. Four solid sets in a row, that’s what’s causing this. If it was mostly/only pocket they would have fallen off after a month and prismatic would be on...
Let’s hope Journey together gets ignored and the “investor” bros are stuck with too much product to buy destined rivals. That will be the only way I get any cards
People with 100s of boxes of unopened product behind them on YouTube videos of them opening stuff are the problem. Scalpers are the problem. People who think they are actually an investment are the problem. I don’t know how we got here, but I don’t see anything changing anytime soon.
