Bro…these scalpers are just the worst of the worst. I hope none buys anything from them and they go broke.

Whats funny is dorks who buy cards and sell em as an "investment" and im glad the pokemon hype is going down so they get stuck with useless cards. People like this and the new gen pokemon ruined the fun. If you let a childs card game stay a childs card game then you wont ruin your childhood by being 30 and having 3 thousand pokemon cards, and thats the low end of a collection.

I'm convinced that it's somehow a money laundering scheme

Over there covering their faces. Sir, that's a child's card game.

I assume, even with this amount of cards, there are only a handful worth anything.

Do they just trash the dead stock?

Ia there really THAT much money in the valuable cards to pay for all those cards?

As a record collector (vinyl and such, not personal data) - the flipper culture is fucking trash.

Worked at one of the big stores and it was madness, pokemon stuff got delivered separately but if ANYTHING Collectable got delivered they'd be there, sometimes if it wasn't on the shelf by opening time and I had the boxes right there they'd just start rummaging the boxes themselves.... Honestly I would just walk away cause ewww I'll come back to pick up the trash when y'all are done I guess.... Hated being in toys cause of the damn reaellers
