That's because market value on some Pokemon stuff is x2 to x4 MSRP. Good way to make a few grand in profit pretty easily

Delivering for DoorDash is for poor people brah, it's essentially below minimum wage. Pokemon is a pretty expensive hobby now only well off people can afford.

ur argument was that a dweeb can make a couple grand in profit in which i reply u can make a couple grand doing menial min wage jobs so just be a fkn man and stop ripping off children's card games. I see these grown men at these kiosks all the time and shiet is just cringe as hell

You can make a few grand off Pokemon with 20 mins of work brah. Compared to doing 100 hours for DoorDash making the same amount. I'm not condoning scalping or fighting over product, but I'm not sure why people care so much if it doesn't involve them

I don't understand what happened? Was the machine on a time delay that they then reset or something? I saw the item go to "sold out", surely if they were scalpers they would have purchased it as soon as it became available?

Pokemon's never been my thing, but it's baller as hell to use your disposable income to hoard up children's cards in the midst of a recession lmao
Have fun and be yourself :-)

I mean it's money right? They could flip the cards for a small profit. Same thing as people getting stabbed over shoes back in the day
The beatings will continue until morale improves.

Im not a heartless shithead and seeing children wait around these Pokémon kiosks anxiously hoping that the hoards of subhuman men dont buy up all the stock is quite heartbreaking.

Most of those kids can't even afford MSRP dude. Booster boxes are like $200. Kids can just buy $1 or $5 cards at their local card store. Lots of cheap cards available. Ripping packs is gambling

Ripping cards is part of the enjoyment

Nothing excuses grown men looking to leech off kid’s spaces

Pokemon cards are probably better investments than sports cards too. You don't gotta worry about waking up in the morning and reading about Charizard tearing his ACL
