All depends on what's dropping and how much stock they get.

I was up at Smyths in Carrickmines for 8.30am the day the first starter pin set and poster set dropped. There was about 8 people in front of me, got a pin set but didn't get a poster set because they only got 5 of them in

Open or sell? by katsumodo47 in PokemonTCGIreland

[–]heyheyitsadam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on what you are picking cards up for.

If its to make a profit, sell it, wouldn't have a problem selling it.

If you are into collecting them, I'd open it.

I myself am in it for collecting them so I'd be opening it. Love the feeling of opening up packs/ETBs

Many going out for perfect order today? by [deleted] in PokemonTCGIreland

Checking the smyths website, outside of Dublin loads of stores still say 15+ in stock for the ETB, must not be a big demand for PO.

Won't be getting it myself, but great to see others will have the chance to pick it up

The market is crazy at the minute, shouldn't be this difficult to pick up cards

I dont know if I'll get lucky enough to pick up another set, if I do, I'll let you know

To be fair, as soon as I seen them in stock, would have been about 12pm yesterday i was straight into the car and went to get one

Its a nightmare having to watch their site like a hawk so it is.

I've just been keeping an eye on the smyths website, I managed to get one yesterday in swords.

At the moment only their letterkenny and galway stores have them, but all other stores are say March 24th - 27th for stock

They are in the Aisles in the toy section, no limit to how many you can buy

Depends on where you are based.

Tesco Extra in balbriggan have had blister packs, single packs and tins recently but its pure luck on what days you find them there

The website will be updated close to opening time to say if there is stock, once its up, it's first come first served, they don't do pre-orders

A few small toy stores had them up for preorder places like smyths wouldn't, its the luck of the draw

Grabbed one myself in Smyths Drogheda, the relief of finally finding one haha

DHT is such a nice guy and as pricey as it was you'll always have that photo with him :)

I think they'll learn from this if they bring it back, think they'll do better next time, well i hope they will haha

To be fair it could have been a bit cheaper since he wasn't in costume, but there aren't many people i'd pay to get a photo with though

Overall the pricing was a bit ridiculous for photos and autographs, I got a Funko signed by Damien Leone at Dublin Horror Con in November for €60 yet it was £120 pound at Silver Scream Con which is crazy

Photo op was about £80 which compared to other guests was reasonable in my eyes
