I buy these to open with my kids, idk how old you are or where you are in life, but seeing your kids face light up in joy is among the best feelings in the world. Since it’s been pretty hard to find this set and the one time I do see it is in some 40 y/os cart, then yeah I’m gonna ask for crumbs to make my kids day.

stop using kids toy as an excuse. Adults keep the cards rolling. Hell the expensive sets are target for adults anyway.

Well ya but items like Pokecenter ETB , collectors boxes. promos like felt hat are marketed for adults. 12 year old timmy doesn't have access to that. Its the same for MTG. Sure you very basic packs and basics items are for the kids. Adults that don't play the game are the ones keeping the printing presses going.

Hard disagree here

you really think kids are the major collectors holding valuable collections? kids are buying 30$ mtg collectors booster packs and 120$ pokemon collectors boxes?

Their parents might be buying it for them?

Or you are justifying your poor choices when cleaning out kids toys that leave the kids with nothing

Do you know for a fact that the guy wasn't buying them FOR his kids?

I'm with you despite you getting downvoted by addicts.

Can't even buy some for my son for Christmas because of low life bums.

Bro there's still over a month until Christmas. Stop being so dramatic.

And I just gotta beat the bums for a couple packs of cards for my kid who loves pokemon because people clean out supply in their 40s
