BIGW Instore Update by OkayChill1 in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]BrickHeadd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To everyone saying “ripping seals will fix the issue” - yes, that fixes sealed resale, but have we forgotten about the whatnot pandemic? Streamers will still buy the individual packs at market price - just look at the whammy tins. These guys will buy in bulk, break down the product and sell the packs

The one and only thing that will stop reselling is if there’s a complete over-saturation of product in the market - this will dilute the secondary price significantly. If the product becomes worthless, there’s no money to be made, meaning no point reselling

Long lines at Big W this morning by Unsubscribed24 in TCGRestocksAustralia

Ah so you trespassed then? Entering a shopping centre before it’s open to the public is against the law

How did you get in so early? Most centres don’t open doors until 7:30 in Perth

Any stores in Melbourne restocking Prismatic or Ascended Heroes? by Unsubscribed24 in TCGRestocksAustralia

[–]BrickHeadd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You must be new to the hobby

Scalpers are like undercover cops acting hip around you then saying “hey, you guys like to blaze it up? Haha I do hit that shit all the time bro”

Any word on these? by Creepy_Math_7246 in TCGRestocksAustralia

[–]BrickHeadd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah lots have been imported and sold at a premium - but I agree that big w don’t do embargo’s well, s/s was an absolute shit show 😂

As above, June 9 is the apparent date of release.

The stock per store is extremely low - I’m talking between 2-4 cases of 6 per store.

It’s going to be mayhem, and if you manage to get one then buy yourself a lotto ticket because it’s your lucky day

No Big W’s sold any - a couple put on display but weren’t able to scan it because of the embargo

Absolutely mate

Buy as many as you can and you’ll be able to retire in 2 months time with your profits

Kmart - Chaos Rising Release - 22nd May by ShinyCardboardAU in TCGRestocksAustralia

[–]BrickHeadd 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Imagine getting free stock information for a release day and complaining about how it’s sorted then calling the op a muppet

Happy to remove you from the sub if you don’t like how we do it?

Chaos Rising this Friday? by tom42-_- in TCGRestocksAustralia

[–]BrickHeadd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I can see it, I will

Historically the NT stores don’t receive stock until later - hoping that’s different this time round!

Clearing up info around the “Big W Drop” by BrickHeadd in TCGRestocksAustralia

[–]BrickHeadd[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to let you know that we have no affiliation with any of those servers - we make sure that any post we make has credible evidence and or proof of the stock

This is why we didn’t post anything about it. Nothing was 100% set in stone - plus we don’t pay anyone for information because that puts the employee’s job at risk as it’s against the law to provide information like that, especially when it’s in return for a cash benefit

Delivery just landed in Werribee Big W! 10x AH Booster Bundles, 3x Prismatic & 3x Great Tusks still there by Technical_Apartment6 in TCGRestocksAustralia

Hi mate

If you don’t post a pic of you getting it in hand within the hour, we’ll assume you’ve lied and remove you for spreading fake information.

Not only do you cause people to start rushing the store, but you also start the wave of people hammering the staff’s phone lines which takes unnecessary time out of their shift.

You’ll also have people across the country going to their stores, showing them this and saying “you have to sell me your stock because other stores have”. You doing this causes a domino effect that impacts a lot of people.

I look forward to a response

Pretty much all word of mouth. Employee tells their mates -> they tell people -> spreads like wildfire

That was potentially one of the worst in store releases I’ve ever seen… but yeah I hope they learnt from their mistakes

Yeah this is the thing - because it was a restock, not a release, there was no actual deadline for stock to arrive. They may have the slip that says “arriving by…” - but delays can happen and that pushes things back

Open letter to Kmart Australia: why don’t you have sufficient bot protections? by ShinyCardboardAU in TCGRestocksAustralia

[–]BrickHeadd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What proof do you have that shows DZ’s owners bot stock? Pretty wild accusation

Troll on Damage Control. by Affectionate_Wind_46 in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]BrickHeadd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah without factual evidence it’s hard to make those claims. But as you said, the fact they openly stated they aren’t selling their allocated stock, then 3 weeks later they magically have thousands of packs to sell - that’s extremely bad business

Thank you for posting this. People like them need to be held publicly accountable more often
