So we can scalp it and contribute to the hahbee ecology, not to collect it of course. :poop: :face_vomiting:

Probably 1 etb from 4 different sets to save, then back to singles.

Buy 2 ETBs, go home and open them, keep the cards I like, trade the hits I don’t want for other cards I like :slight_smile:

I’ve also never personally had the desire to collect sealed or “invest” and resell. I do, however, love opening Pokemon cards

Really depends where its from.

Walmart or target, maybe 1-3 packs.

Gamestop = :skull: nah

My mind tends to always think of the next person, so if theres like 3 packs I wouldnt buy any.

¥0. No interest in collecting modern, nor in reselling.

There’s only a couple modern products I’m interested in but, I’m more interested in old singles so I’ll leave the supply for the next guy who cares about sealed more than singles and save my money

I end up spending about $300 after I walked past the cards without grabbing any and buy the groceries I need

In the current market this situation will sound like fantasy to new people but is actually the reality of a normal market before all the hype. Personally MSRP felt expensive during normal times

I would probably buy some booster boxes or ETBs to keep sealed for the long-term

Haven’t had the opportunity to buy anything since Journey Together, so ideally one booster box from each set there after would be cool (or ETB if applicable). Ripping modern packs is hardly ever worth it, I know. But its fun to do.

Does the store endlessly restock like a fantasy dream? Will I be stealing joy from children if I buy lots?

If its a never ending supply I’m draining my pokemon account to 0, selling it and buying some collection pieces.

If it has finite supply I’d probably take a box of destined rivals and open it

I’d rip of box of Destined, Mega Evolutions, and Phantasmal and call it a day.
