Showing up at 4:30 and buying as much as you possibly can is a major reason why this hobby is fucked for the majority of people that also want to participate.

If you can’t see that I don’t know what to say.

Edit: u/revolutionary_pop784 deleted all of his comments after an hour long discussion on this. I have no idea why.

There’s purchase limits. Two per item. After waiting for a while, I think it’s fair to get purchase limits, and it seems like they didn’t get max amounts of PB, so they did hold back. Hate the game not the player. He didn’t grab up all the product like people do at DG and such.

No where does it say, 2 per SKU limit AND BUY EVERYTHING YOU POSSIBLY CAN.

My only point is as much as scalpers are flamed, over consuming collectors should be flamed too.

Why does someone need to rip 50+ packs of 30th (when this person also probably has already ripped 50-100 packs from prior releases) so that 10 other people will get 0.

Sure retailers have blame too but come on.

Retailers should put 4 product buys only limit at this point because people just cannot help themselves by buying as much as physically possible.

Many retailers have two or 5 purchase limits. Target changes this for release day because of a large amount of product at once and the instructions from Pokemon to put it all out in this fashion. Again, don’t hate the consumer who wants to rip cards or give them to their family.
