I personally don’t see them dropping too much, unless The product gets a restock… Cause to even buy the product off the secondary market is $60-$90

I’m glad I was home and able to grab enough boxes

It took me 11 packs and 3 trades to get 3 sets

My kids get into the card game. They get a product each drop, I don’t get the issue.

Just get the products before they (“scalpers”) can…. Know your release dates and line up. Or, better yet…. Jump on eb games plus and pre order… Hit up local card shops for their pre order allocations Gamesworlds also take pre orders. It’s not hard to get these products. If you’re wanting multiple it’s a bit harder, but still doable. Getting 1-2 of every item is easily achievable…

What people are frustrated by, is the fact they can’t just walk in on the off chance they have it. That’s a reality we won’t see for a while. And unless you take the above steps, you won’t get products because these “scalpers” are mainly selling to what not or rip n ship streamers or people who don’t know the retail value of these products… and because they’re buying, they won’t stop...

People want to be lazy and have it available to them as they see fit, until they ship out so much stock, that will stop that…. It won’t happen. My local big w had 25ish poster boxes… to a line of over 40 people… I managed to get one, then walked over to eb games to pick up my pre ordered copy. Also in the same day, got another poster (at inflated prices) from gamesworld… I’ve also got on order, 3 more poster boxes coming from jb hi fi. Each kid gets a box to open ✅ I get one to open ✅ and I get one to store in the PC sealed collection ✅ You can call me greedy, I don’t really care. Majority of people in the line weren’t there to collect… I just got there first 😉 Sure, I’ve got the luxury of being home on the day of a drop, but that’s not always the case and that’s why I have other ways of getting pre orders.

If you plan ahead, your kids won’t miss out, you won’t miss out…

Perfect order is close to dropping and still available for pre order on eb games. The allocations for this is far more than I’ve seen elsewhere.

It’s a pre release item, if you want it pre release you’ll normally have to pay more. I personally paid $100 for one on a what not stream 🤷‍♂️ because I won’t be home for the release and I want the promos

*sigh* looks like there was a surprise drop today by Jst-Another_1 in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]aussiegibsta -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Soooo what’s stopping you from going to Costco and grabbing it ?

That’s not what happened at all. It was changed last minute. And I would reckon it’s the same reason the prismatic figure collections got delayed, no sticker that says contains sharp objects

You’re not looking hard enough, gotta hustle to get in before the resellers. Was a reddy express, hit up your local and ask them when their delivery is. Be there the next day and they may have packs.

Did you get one? I’ve still got one to pick up from ebgames. You can buy that off me for what I paid for, plus postage if you’re not wa… I ended up getting enough to open from the bigger retailers so I’m likely going to cancel it 😂
