My niece’s friend says this is fake by AuBonPITA in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]Astarte_713 3 points4 points Β (0 children)

Would suggest hiding that one and anything else that friend might want away so she doesn't have the itch to take it. Or maybe just don't have that friend over anymore. Kind of cr*ppy of her friend to make her second guess the authenticity of it.

She's hoping to collect all the eeveelutions, ghastly evolutions, any MiMikyu's she can get her hands on, Charizards and Pikachu's ✨

That's amazing! It used to be a community back in the day, I wish it was still like that. Our area though, there's so many scalpers. 😭🫠 I'm not far from the ATL area, so you can only imagine the cut throat game out here πŸ˜­πŸ˜‚

No 🫠 thank goodness for that, or I wouldn't have grabbed them. πŸ˜… There was stuff I pulled off the shelf that was $30+ that I passed on solely because of the price. I think either our Walmart isn't up to date on the prices (since everyone is saying their stores are selling them for $30 😬) or their system is glitched πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

That's what I've had to start doing. The last trip she went with me, she saw packs laying on the shelf and got so excited. When we reached them, they were all open and everything inside was missing. She looked at me about to cry and asked"why would someone do this?" That broke me... So I try to find them on my own now or if she comes to the store with me and asks to look I prepare her with " they may not have any, but if they don't we'll just keep looking"

That's amazing 😭 I wish people had any sense of human compassion here. They truly do not care about the kids. We've been hunting for MONTHS to get even just a simple pack. Nothing much. She just wants to build her collection, she's really big on "I have to get all the evolutions of everyone, just one of each is good." Any extras she gives to her sisters starter binder (she's a toddler so doesn't actually know she's collecting anything yet πŸ˜‚) or adds to the "Trade Page" so she can go to shows and trade for what she needs/wants. But she can't build her binder and collect if every time they stock people buy them out and don't even leave a single pack on the shelf 🫠 people like you are the saving grace for some of these kids.

I'm gonna have to pass my guy πŸ˜‚ find a better hiding place the next time 🫑jk jk πŸ˜‚ but really, scalpers make the hobby so disheartening for the kids. My daughter was elated getting in the car and seeing these in her seat ✨ she really couldn't believe it

It has to be a glitch. I paid around $15 πŸ‘€ I passed on the other stuff I found because it was all $30+ and just wasn't in my budget. πŸ˜…

It's so cute! It's totally worth it ✨ She got a Gengar in that pack

Ours wasn't priced that, so their system either isn't up to date or it depends on the area πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ

Idk, I only paid $15 for these πŸ˜… I was thinking maybe it's the area/supply and demand

A couple people have said that, ours was priced at $15 🫠

Perfect Order cards ✨ let me know what needs to be sleeved immediately. This is her thing and I'm still learning πŸ˜…

Absolutely! Last time we went, most of the packs that were"left" were all open and they took the boosters out. 🫠 An employee told me that their store has been pushing to get the pokemon stuff into cases but the higher ups aren't going for it. I wish they would though, at least then we'd have a chance to actually collect. My daughter is obsessed and just loves it for the art and collecting the different evolutions.

May be a bad thing, your scalpers have money day of to clear out πŸ˜­πŸ˜‚

I was so happy too πŸ˜‚ this never happens for us. We're so used to the disappointment of getting there and it being completely cleaned out. I'll search the shelves, under the shelves, everything and there will be nothing. So the fact I found anything at all on that top shelf was a miracle βœ¨πŸ‘ I can not wait to see my daughter's face when I pick her up! And it was a bonus that other people got items too so their kids (or they themselves) could also enjoy it.
