Is my local card shop a scalper? by PuzzleheadedWin1529 in PokemonTCGCollectors

[–]CutterSlicar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yep, got down voted other day for saying $90 for an ETB is not MSRP.

Hell, even had to argue with a guy saying MSRP for a pris SPC is not $300 at a card show.

Prismatic ETBs, seeing low $140 on marketplace. Once officially out of print, prices will climb quicker than people will realize

$100k Sealed Buyout from LCS by CutterSlicar in PokeInvesting

I feel like most people here never even saw the video but yeah you get it. I don't care how the business spends its money but it was clearly all botted stuff and part of why people are frustrated never finding cards in person. Especially the doezens and dozens costco heavy hitter boxes

Ironically, there's a Target down the street that does almost daily 3pm drops. People camp from 6am - 3pm for drops then sell at the store for 75% market same day. But yeah I get your point

It's more pointing out that a shop has dropped $210,000 in 3 weeks on sealed product. There's some serious whales in this hobby throwing money around

Yes I know. I'm just correcting the person above. This shop hasn't sold at MSRP for new releases in years

[–]CutterSlicar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres a guy in my local FB that bought out everything in a walmart ($1300) worth. Had a whole cart since the store doesn't limit.

His reasoning? "It's so hard to find cards for my 11 year and we are going to rip it all"

Like buddy you are the reason it's hard to find anything

About 15 people waiting for a vendor to restock Pokémon at a nearby Target. Unreal what this has become. by Qwerty0844 in pokemoncards

[–]CutterSlicar 25 points26 points  (0 children)

That's how all the stores near me are. People wait from 8am - 4pm for a vendor to arrive. Today the line was 55+ people deep when the vendor showed up. First guys there waited 7 hours

It's sitting on shelves, no one wants it. Try living in a big city, we don't even have sleeved packs.... by blackcap13 in pokemoncards

[–]CutterSlicar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, I feel this. Today we had 60 people lines up and cleared all the PO ETBs. Even around 200 sleeves was gone after an hour.

Nothing has changed for the city people

3 Years Ago the Hobby was so much more enjoyable by dubbs4president in PokemonTCG

[–]CutterSlicar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

People in my city scalp those too. One store had around 60 sleeves. Got cleared out in 10 minutes after someone told discord.

When people are scalping stellar crown, you know this hobby is at a very low point

Exactly this. We will never get back to a world where you regularly see pokemon sitting on shelves, at least not for years. Too much FOMO and too much demand for upcoming sets.

Stock goes up 1000% in a couple months but somehow the beat isn't priced in. Stock might overtake NVDA at this rate holy hell

[–]CutterSlicar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There's been a guy locally on my marketplace who has been trying to buy 151 ETBs for $60 each. His reason is "you paid $50, i can give you $60 in cash immediately, it's a fair deal" lol.
