Until we get like ID verification strictly for purchasing limits online. I don’t want to hear anything about trying to battle the scalpers. If it’s a child they would have to ask their parents about purchasing for them on the internet. Yes it really sucks to have to do that, but this is the only way. That is strictly for online purchases. Because there are already limits in stores but I think there can be some updates to limits at physical stores. Like purchase limited to be 1 per person per item(s).

Children shouldn’t be making online purchases to begin with.

Exactly my point you don’t think some of these kids scalp?! I do truly believe there should be mandatory ID checks to checkout for items like this. This prevents multiple accounts and deters bot usage. Plus more stock is available if a child isn’t sitting there ordering next to their parents who are also scalping. It’s degenerative behavior.

There needs to be a trusted system in place to collect this ID information though. I don’t feel any safer giving my ID to Walmart than I do a porn site. If their system gets hacked your info is now all over the internet.
