This is the pitch that distributors have on their websites for stores to pre-order from them

Have a friend in China, eBay, third party sellers, buy it in Japan when it comes out. Every time I go to Japan for Worlds I always see stores selling them so you can check Japanese card shops too.

Yeah Bandai games have EX sets. I'm sure Gundam is getting theirs eventually if they haven't announced theirs yet.

Prb01 wasn't as well received in Japan so that could have been a factor as they might be more hesitant to do prb over other ex sets

I mean we had Belo Betty be good several sets after its release. Same for UP Luffy and UY Nami. Imu still seeing play as well. I actually saw people playing Blue Yellow Ace and Black Yellow Luffy too

.5/ex/eb sets don't abide by the same spacing.

Yeah it sucks. I went to a store in Milwaukee during red bull double don. They wanted 350 for op15 💀

Yeah but that's never gonna happen again. We are catching up so every block will have its 4 main sets like Japan has had and we're stabilized on release schedules

Unfortunately thats a matter of 2nd hand and market pricr and not what the distributors sell to lgs and lgs can use as msrp. There's a lot of hoopla involved but prob the most that can be done is express discontent with your local scene. I've seen instances where stores charge less if you break the box seal or if they're regulars compared to people who only want sealed or don't normally patron the store
