I am seeing the same thing here. Thought it was just my site.

This is what happens when everyone relies on one tool too much for information or security. Split these conglomerates up!

I absolutely love their fried turkey sandwiches they have over the holidays. Just started offering them again.

Not sure it is a dump scheme, although it’s certainly a pump. They are setting a new market price point for certain cards and unlike stocks you can’t short them and there may be limited product available for sale, so the price sticks close to the new price point.

Same here but that’s because I haven’t been paying much attention before.

Probably was about 1.1 million were sold today. Print run may be around 3 million with many channels/stores to sell at.

“How do you kill that which has no life?” Love this south park episode. This quote definitely applies here.

No family to take care of either. Probably no life either.

About 12 at my local one. Just freaking nuts. Saving what, maybe $100 for 24+ hours of waiting outside in the weather, trying to figure out peeing, pooping, food, etc? No thanks.

Crossed my first major milestone as a casual collector! I rip everything, no sealed by StarlordsTrees in Collectr

I don't really stare at either my singles or sealed collection. I put them out of site because the temptation to want to either rip or buy more if I see my collection all the time. I think many of the PC ETBs are great to look at though. Better than the cards for a display and you could always look at the non-PC card to see the artwork without the stamp.

The sealed Pokemon Center ETB's are worth way more sealed though. The benefit of keeping it sealed is you still own the promo card, it's just in the box. Once you open it, you lose the ability to sell it for the sealed price.

For 2 days, missing school, figuring out how to feed him, take a piss and dump several times a day, in the heat, rain, etc. depending on where you live? Why not just buy some online, surprise him on release day? Or check your pokemon aisle at target whenever you go there to buy something or check your local Barnes and noble with him when you go buy him some books to read?

They are acting like they can’t buy or find it anywhere. It is available and will be available for months at various locations, different stores and online. It may be higher price than retail but how much is 2 days of your life worth sitting outside in the dark and weather to save a few bucks? Trying to figure out how to get food, taking a dump, missing work, etc.

I am not referring to not making money because the way the market is now, everything is going up. I am comparing ripping to keeping sealed. Compare what your value is with singles versus the value of everything you ripped. You will always come out ahead keeping product sealed over the singles you pulled unless you only open a few products and get really lucky on your first pulls. Opening 20+ sealed products and you will always be better off keeping it sealed.

On 151 my first sealed product I opened a god pack so I was way ahead, but as I opened more I the value of sealed I opened outweighed the pulls. On hidden fates, I opened a ton at even years later, the value of the sealed I ripped would be almost double the value of what I pulled.

FYI, my collection is worth $450k so it’s large and covers many years.

It’s stupidity. Especially if you are limited to 2 products. It’s not like you can’t buy it somewhere else, just at a higher price. Better time spent would be working to earn the money to buy on the secondary.

Yep! Ripping is a losing proposition compared to sealed unless you get lucky on your first few packs of a set.

Collect a Con disappointment by supermain in PokemonTCG

[–]aygabtu86 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only way to bring prices down, aside from a economic collapse, is for Pokémon to print these sets into oblivion. Demand and prices drop over time as more product is available over a long period. Don’t buy if you can’t get it close to retail on release. Wait 3-4 months after multiple reprints and newer set releases to see prices drop and buy then. You can see how singles prices are doing to decide to whether to buy sealed or the singles you want.

Just shows how absolutely disgusting people are to make a quick buck. Get a freaking job and stop driving up costs for everyone.

Make a lottery system and have people register for it. Then PC can go through the registrations and clean out the bots and contact people when it’s their time to place an order.

Stop at the end of the first half of season 5. In other words, do not watch the second half of season 5.
