It’s tough man. Sometimes he’s the only one with stuff I want. After that stringbid sesh, I tried gixen and that worked amazingly. Seems like that’s the best way to combat that kinda crap (outside of boycotting). I only ended up paying $20 more than what my early max bid was. With shill/string bidders, I guess that’s the move. Probably saved a couple hundred bucks instead of continuing to raise my bid for the next two hours.

Another one doing exactly what @smpratte created this thread about 7 years ago.
Not sure what you mean?
Hmm I guess it’s because I’m from UK then. Postage was showing as $2,500 (even when logged out and on eBay.com).
Same for me - I’m in Denmark.
Holy crap. It said 50 bucks for me (in the US) I can’t imagine being from outside of america and not noticing that kinda absurd shipping cost that you guys are seeing
that 2590,50 $ shipping though…
“color is slightly faded” lol
Did the fading also remove the 1st edition logo from the pack? 
I was on right when they opened sales and couldn’t get a single ticket.

Anyone buying these tickets is only hurting themselves, they require your trainer info. If the scalper can’t sell the ticket they get released. Also the resellers can be reported on eBay due to resale not being allowed in the state of sale.
I am seeing ticket now hit for over $500 per ticket!! Why so high what is this “Pokemon GO” fest? Crazy.
Looks like a drunk celebi had a one night stand with E.T. and the dispared and rejected E.T. gets drunk and through the fetal alcohol syndrome birthes this monstrosity.

LMFAO, that assessment is spot on.
I think this is the first time I’ve seen something like this.
Seems he has several fake 1st edition cards listed.
