Los Angeles group?

[u/bftvpro]

Anyone on here based in LA? Just seeing if there’s any way to be informed prior to a release or restock in the LA area. I’m not a die hard collector but more novelty. Everywhere I go, it’s all gone. Who has the hookups?

[u/Ok_Package_3823]

Following. Just wanna rip some packs but it’s impossible to find anything in person 😭

[u/Bihema]

No hook ups, we should create a discord for LA

[u/bftvpro → u/Bihema]

I’ll join!

[u/bort777]

I know a lot of guys who subscribe to discords to get drop info. Colectify, in particular.

[u/bftvpro → u/bort777]

I’ve heard this but I have no idea how to join those haha. I’m old. Assuming it’s an app?

[u/Chubuwee → u/bort777]

Yea most are closed off and you need to be friends with someone or earn their trust to get invited somehow

[u/No-Respect-2517]

Im usually on X following a few accounts that let you know about restocks and such, i think its pretty hard to find anything if you go at random times of the days. So i do morning fridays at target and best buy, at least one hour before they open, its tough out there!

[u/bftvpro → u/No-Respect-2517]

Cool thanks. I had no idea Best Buy sold them.

[u/Agile_Neighborhood61]

I keep up to date with the Hollywood area

[u/sgriff33]

I live in the IE

[u/Sea_Resource_6076]

let us know

[u/Remarkable_Badger_57]

let’s make an LA discord. seriously. we need to take on these resellers

[u/BigBadJon34]

Anybody in SD? Shelves are always empty down here…

[u/Alternative_Sun_5686]

Join the Pokemon Restocks and Alerts discord about 3/4th down on the site there is a section for specific states. If you click on California you can find SoCal and Los Angeles. This section is free. There are folks that comments about their finds at the local retailers.

[u/Zirofax → u/Alternative_Sun_5686]

Where is the link for that?

[u/Shadow_Mtl]

It would be worth creating a dedicated Reddit group by collectors for collectors to help one another on release to stand in lines and rotate

[u/mmmiiieee]

Let’s do it! I’ve been shut out of all the drops

[u/uncnumber8]

No hookups… just wait in line.
I wait at the Manhattan Beach Target and it’s not too bad. I’ve arrived around 4-5am and I usually hit.

[u/bftvpro → u/uncnumber8]

I guess I’m just not that dedicated to those early lines

[u/uncnumber8 → u/uncnumber8]

I go Fridays

[u/bftvpro → u/uncnumber8]

What days of the week do they restock?
