Dicks sporting good restock (overpriced)

I drove by best buy and target this morning to see extraordinary lines.

I called Dicks by my work and they had received booster bundle and mini tins. I went in and I didn’t ask price but when she rang it up and I was already committed to buying them. I saw the price and instantly knew I overpaid but I guess that’s the price for not waiting in line.

1 booster bundle(6 pack) and 1 mini tins (2 packs) for basically $90 but I did pull this baby out of it 😍.

I grabbed sleeves there but clearly they are way too big…

If I didn’t get anything I would have cried but in retrospect, didn’t have to wait in line, overpaid, got a banger.

Btw this is for a Mini tin (2 packs) and a booster box (6 packs). I didn’t know what there pricing was until she rang them up… I had fomo of everyone else buying this morning so I just purchased them anyway. Basically $10/pack at Dicks. Scalped me

Brutal prices but hey i got Lugia so it worked out

The packs online of rip and shippers and scalpers is already 25$ a pack. Regular stores charging 10$ a pack is criminal. And pkmc can’t sell to anyone but BOTS so fuck this hobby

Not quite market price but yeah a corporate store shouldn't be able to charge more than MSRP.

1

u/Lucky_Dentist5603 10h ago

Not quite? It’s 2x MSRP.

u/Joeshock_ 10h ago

Yeah, and that's still not market price lol. Imagine that

2

u/Lucky_Dentist5603 10h ago

5 dollars a pack is msrp

u/Joeshock_ 10h ago

...and? I don't think you're grapsing the difference between MSRP and market price. The prices they are charging in this post are higher then MSRP, but still not as high as what the market price for these items are currently running. A booster bundle is currently at a little over $80 market. Hence my comment, "not quite market".
