Ask for discounts/returns due to minor box issues (normal shipping/shelf/customer browsing wear and tear). Order 36 of the same figure online to get the Chase (1/6 chance), then return the 35 they didn't want in store. My old job implemented a new policy specifically to deal with them.

I personally have a few that I paid less than $50 for that are worth $200+ now. People go nuts.

SquirtleSkwad 01/10/21 3:31:49 PM #12:	They've been doing this shit way more often for the duration of the pandemic. I used to be able to find product in stores whenever I went. Now you basically have to beat these jobless dicks to the vendors before they get to the store. And I'm not paying 200% retail for an already expensive gamble. I finally pulled the rainbow rare Charizard from Champion's Path, so I don't have to try for that crap set anymore, but scalpers are already trying to flip Shining Fates for $100 an ETB and it hasn't even dropped yet. --- "If you cannot explain it simply, you do not understand it well enough."-Albert Einstein <cite>SquirtleSkwad posted [p:949346725] in Pokemon ca...
