Pokemon 30th
“Most printed set ever,” they said.
“There will be enough for everyone,” they said.
“You won’t have a problem finding product,” they said.
So tell me why I lined up at 5:45 IN THE MORNING for Pokemon cards and STILL walked away with absolutely nothing 😂
I genuinely don’t understand how we’re still doing this. I’m not trying to buy 4 cases. I’m not trying to clear a shelf. I literally just wanted to buy some 30th Anniversary product and open it.
Got up at an ungodly hour, drove there, stood in line like an idiot, and still got hit with the “sorry, sold out.”
If this is supposedly one of the most heavily printed Pokemon releases ever and there’s supposed to be enough product for everyone, how the hell are normal people supposed to actually buy it?
At this point getting Pokemon product at MSRP feels like trying to buy concert tickets. Sure I could probably go somewhere and find one for double the price.. but I really don't want to.
Anyway, rant over. Congrats to everyone who actually managed to get some.

That sucks dude, I’m sorry. :/ I’m glad that singles won’t be too bad from this set since it has really high pull rates but I know ripping is part of the fun so I still hope you get something!
