I appreciate your optimism. But fact is unless pokemon absolutely floods targets and walmarts, and others of this manner, with product we are at the mercy of LGS/scalpers who have banded together in this fight. They are buying out targets and such as well, and they also have the bots. Until...

Please dont call it a logan Paul era, giving that turtle killing jack ass any attention, especially an era only feeds his ego. Just call it the covid era.

So out of curiosity why isnt there a system that prevents the same credit card use. I have seen it on other websites where if card info is found on multiple accounts they put them on hold. I know some people will just use multiple cards, but wouldnt it at least help against the millions of bots?

There are so many odd things when it comes to "investor buyers" and scalpers, because they are very open about being this bad of a person. I am a TO for a couple stores, but I don't actually work for the stores so if I were to try product from them I get the 3 times msrp as well. But I got this...

To try and simmer down I am just going to agree with you

That is literally every LGS, even if they get them at their distributor price, which is like 50-60% of msrp, they sell them for 3x. If they sold their product for msrp scalpers would literally have no power. Don't support LGS anymore, they will screw you over if they know they can.

It quite literally says on the card that it can be used to block damage to none rule box pokemon

placement of damage counters is not damage, dragapult pulls through

"I'll see you in hell rule box pokemon" -Shaymin (probably)

<my opinion>The only thing that would have made this years pokemon announcements even less thrilling would have been a black and white remake. I get wanting a remake so it can be, you know, good. But that generation sucked so much. Dumb hypocritical characters, blandly designed pokemon, and...

I dont think that is the best example, I dont know about other areas, but my area had enough celebrations. Not at first, but eventually it was easy enough to find. I don't think there is a lot they can do except just keep printing the set. That is literally all they can do. The rest is up to us...

Every gamestop I go to is out of pokemon cards. One guy literally told me that the first guy that came in on the 7th bought all the prismatic. Like the guy above said, they arent gonna go anywhere and people will probably pocket them. I literally gave each of my league members a prize pack...

Yeah but prismatic has showed the true colors of many stores, so I guess I am just convinced they will screw their league first chance they get.

Where are you located?

If they are store ran they will probably be sold after the first day. Might be better if professor owned. But varies from place to place.

I got some bad news for you if you arent considering LGS as scalpers now. Honestly the S now stands for scalpers.

Well i can understand a few going per address. I have 2 roommates in my house so I understand, plus if someone has a workplace or another house, I can see a reasonable amount. But bots get vast amount, more than the amount I showed. I have met Store owners who no problem explaining that they...

I am not an expert in any sense on these subjects, but cant they just set up a system that flags orders, at least in large quantities going to the same shipping address?

Dont forget, scalpers are bad but LGS are worse. Had they been limiting and selling them at MSRP, scalpers would literally have no power. Plus the mark up LGS do to rip off their patrons is absurd.
