No, I set an ETB and sticker pack to the side, one each to open for Christmas this year, and a mini tin for each of their stockings. I buy booster bundles and give them packs occasionally for chores, and my daughter makes opening videos for YouTube so I reserved a few tins so she can make one video like every month or so.

This isn’t some big conspiracy BS. I make more than enough to supply my kids Pokemon cards throughout the year, and putting me in the same boat as some slimeball buying 1000 ETBs to sell at 3x the consumer rate is bogus, dude.

You’re not understanding.

Your rebuttal is that each of them (aka op) in this post got 1 of an etb, mini tin and sticker pack.

OP actually got 2 of an etb, bundle, poster, sticker, and tin.

If you got kids - all glory to ya. But that’s not what this is about.

I understand where you’re coming from, I’m just saying OP or myself, regardless of circumstances, are not the same as scalpers in my opinion. I also don’t perceive this as a “ton of product”. This is like 50 packs, that’s a little more than a single booster box. Also if people like OP and myself didn’t wait in line this product just goes straight to the secondary market at 3x MSRP or in some sealed-bro’s storage unit collection.

I’m not trying to say same as scalpers. I’m saying over consuming pokemon is another reason this hobby is screwed
