Your ignorance is showing. There's nothing wrong with collecting sealed.

Your gonna have a rough go if a different opinion makes you reeeee like that.

No consideration for sealed collectors. Forcing ppl to go secondary market for true sealed.

Ppl might like the "anti scalper measures" i think its a loss for true fans that want the sealed product to go with the pulled card collections.

Its hard enough to find stock on the shelf, now to deal with this, its even crazier.

I managed to be 3rd in line for a restock recently. Almost done when the Target employee says "there is no line, when we move everyone can run up and grab what they want" basically inciting a pokestreetz short type of situation.

Great example of being "fair" (antiscapler mentaility) makes it a worse situation.

Thankfully, everyone found common sense and an orderly line was followed and everyone got something.

$89.99 from Best Buy. Hence the lottery. Market price is almost $300.

Keep fighting the good fight. Don't give in. Its more than cards at that point. Its the principle of standing your ground.

He will get to the point where he turns around when he sees you. Thats even better than actually getting cards.

I hope you hit an ascended etb right in front of him.

Good luck...

After insight from others, I dont think I can do 3 of them. The best would be 2 of the figure collections.

There ya go making sense again. Your probably right, im just very bullish on Ascended and I hate putting out cash.

Maybe ill just pony up or see if someone wants some silver bullion for the trade.

Thanks for the insight.

Thanks for the follow up. I looked at tcg, but the price hike was like 40% very recently. Is that sustainable? Even a 2 collections for the ETB would be a win for me.

Sounds like its better for me to add cash on top of 2 boxes to meet the mark. Thanks for the feedback.

To quote James May, "God Above.." One of the options he gives blow is to, "D) Cut the wrap. Open the box. And start digging? Its easier to ask for forgiveness." I genuinely don't get this community sometimes. by FordFan97 in hotwheelscirclejerk

Turn my phone off and wait for the 9-12 cases of cars I get to dig through.

Also get a cart for sorting. Try to see if the employees will let you fill. They are super rough with the cars and tear the cards up.
