It's sad I used to get excited about these reveals. Now it just makes me depressed because it means this set will be scalped into oblivion by scum resellers and investment chuds. The soul from this hobby has genuinely been sucked dry by awful people.
The irony of being called a larper by a role playing account.
I’ve been playing Pokémon since you were a twinkle in your dad’s eye. Maybe sit this one out.
Good. Do more of this. Tear the seals off of every Pokémon TCG product if it helps fix the scalping issue. To the "shoppers" (scalpers) saying the employee was "ruining the Pokémon Company's sales"? Nah. YOU won't buy it anymore. But the TARGETED AUDIENCE certainly will.
Yes based on current market absolutely! Slash away!. I understand ppl want to save "seal" but we need a type of correction. Id happily take a ripped or damaged product to rip any day I wouldn't argue with workers unless I feel they are in wrong, id even try to ask a manager or the employee if it is okay if they dont rip mine if I wanted to sealed 🤷🏼♀️ kindness and respect go a long way ppl forget that
"But Pokemon likes the hobby the way it is"
I don't know how many more signs you need that Pokemon is not a fan of the way their franchise is being viewed and treated.

I truly despise what pokemon tcg has become. Secondary market bullshit, pumps & investor bros have ruined what was supposed to just be a fun, wholesome game & hobby. I've worked at a lgs for the past 6 years & pokemon cards have just become dreadful to deal with lol
There are countless resellers with stock like this and they TRULY don’t believe the market is going to crash. I’m going to be laughing and mocking every single one when it inevitably happens
I would continue to rip open packs because I buy cards to fucking open 99% of the time
This market is so fucking stupid. It shouldn't be a massive financial decision to rip open cardboard
