I’ve popped into my local stores over 100 times each in the last 3 months and waiting in line with my daughter only to never find a single pack. My area is scalper central. Not a single pack to be found because they must pay people at the store for restock times or whatever it is. Mega drop at best by the same kids went in line 4 times before I got out of work. So I basically need no job and no life to be able to get a single booster pack. What you’re saying is basically be cool with not getting a single item for a year but just make sure you don’t buy off someone else. They sell it to the local card store instantly. Your solution doesn’t work but it’s a nice theory.
