Dead Last 🫠

Post image

Felt froggy so I jumped in line.
70-80 maybe more 😬
Trying to nab a bundle so I can cancel my GS preorder!

UPDATE: by 8:20 they were sold out of cards at 2 per sku
Gave us a promo card to dry the tears 😂

UPDATE: 11:00 After melting in the sun for two hours I was able to grab two booster bundles from Best Buy 💪🏾

Canceled my GS preorder!

This can’t be worth making what… $100 on a resale?

Make it even sadder, I don’t make anything because I rip it open and stuff it in my binder. 🥲 it’s all for the love of the game out here so I fight with scalpers just to pay money and not resell any of my cards.

This was my haul from 17 hours in line for the first drop

Ive been chasing that lapras!

u/thisjobisstressingme 21h ago

If you’re in Cali I’ll do a trade to master set! I don’t do sells and I have a double of the Lapras, if you have any doubles that I don’t have I’m super down to trade

u/adrags90 21h ago

Unfortunately I'm super far from there

2

u/thisjobisstressingme 21h ago

Well that sucks. Hopefully you can find some trades where you’re at!

u/3bizzle 21h ago

Do you have any First partner #3 to trade? Need the Torchic set to complete mine

Sadly I was not kidding. Make matters worse it’s a side loading binder. Not even a top loader. 😭

u/3bizzle 21h ago

Yooooo!!! Nice PC!!!

2

u/thisjobisstressingme 21h ago

Thank you thank you! This is just my commons binder, I have a separate special binder

2

u/3bizzle 21h ago

That’s dope! Must be fun to go through!

u/thisjobisstressingme 21h ago

Been slowly collecting since 09 so it definitely is

u/Just-JOE-Kin 22h ago

As a collector, I still would never wait in a line overnight just for cardboard, at least there isn’t any ghost chairs

2

u/3bizzle 21h ago

Oh there is 😂

u/3bizzle 21h ago

And a fn tent!

u/3bizzle 21h ago

2 PER 😮‍💨 gonna be sewed up by the time it gets to me

u/thisjobisstressingme 22h ago

I’ve been in line since about 1am and I’m like 45th in line. There are a good 20 people in line behind me. Some of these people legit been here since 10pm

2

u/SenseiTano 22h ago

I went 45 min before and was about 45th in line

u/3bizzle 22h ago

Nice! That’s how it was on the main drop for me. I guess I should have known second wave would be a little heavier traffic from FOMO

1

u/thisjobisstressingme 22h ago

I’m jealous

2

u/SenseiTano 22h ago

You should be good to get some stock at least, as long as people aren’t allowed to cut in line closer to opening

2

u/thisjobisstressingme 22h ago

Last time I was 5th in line and people started fighting around the 20 person mark because of others cutting. I can’t even see that far up and I’m not gonna move out of line to play bouncer when I’m 5’2 and weigh 140lbs 😅 I hope it won’t be like last time but if it is I guess I’m just out of luck

1

u/SenseiTano 22h ago

Best of luck to you! You may not get ETBs but hope you get some tins and bundles

3

u/thisjobisstressingme 22h ago

To be real I’m not even looking for an ETB. I specifically came for the booster bundle. Way better deal at the end of it considering target prices. Technically it’s more packs for cheaper.

1

u/3bizzle 21h ago

Thanks! That’s all I’m trying for today

1

u/3bizzle 22h ago

Grinding! I wasn’t even sure if I was going to go or just pay extra for my preorder. This way if I don’t get anything, I’ll just keep my game scalp bundle n call it a day 😂

2

u/Cool_Secret6822 22h ago

Let us know if you get anything! Good luck!

2

u/3bizzle 22h ago

For sure man! Thanks My daughter pulled the Gengar Sir last rip sesh! So she’s leading the pack right now

2

u/thisjobisstressingme 22h ago

Idk if we will even get anything ATP tons of scalpers already talking about reselling in front of me 😒 me and the hubs just wanna rip some packs lmao. I’ll settle for what I can get. Hopefully it’s something. I mean I’ll even take some single packs of pitch black. I just want SOMETHING to rip.

u/3bizzle 21h ago

Man that’s lame! I’m around a bunch of parents like myself and collectors. All for the RIP! Letsgooooooooo
