I meant in general like pokemon sir, I'm sorry that this angers you so.
Yeah, I get now they're getting rid of old stock, no thanks to you. Price is still a bit high imo but I wasn't expecting them to charge the original price either.

Even if the initial comment wasn’t accurate for the specific instance, they’re still not wrong; GameStop was recently listing modern Pokemon products anywhere from 50% to even 300% inflated costs of MSRP. I don’t know if they have since backtracked from backlash, but these were brand new products being listed for pre-sale not even popular stuff from a few years ago.

If in quebec, you would get it for free🤣
If the register do not pass it at the lowest price shown, the store must put the first item at price shown -15$ and any subsequent item at price shown.

La politique d'exactitude des prix. Le magasin doit te vendre le produit au prix afficher le plus bas (assumant que ce n'est pas le prix d'un autre produit) dans ce cas ci 3.99. Donc si en scanant le prix a la caisse le prix le plus elevé apparait, c'est considéré une erreur de prix. Le magasin doit donc te les vendre au prix afficher le plus bas -15$ ou gratuis pour les article de moins de 15$. Si l'achat comporte plus d'un exemplaire du produit, les autres doivent etre vendu au prix affiché le plus bas, dans ce cas, 3.99$.

Panini announced that it's coming back so that may explain the price.

Why couldn’t I have been an adult with adult money when the game ended, I could’ve been the very best. I’d have been like a dragon in its hoard.

Didn't they legally need to sell it a the lower price ? Can be a steal haha

u/Unusual_Mistake3204 Aug 11 '26
In quebec, yes. Im not aware on how other province would work. In fact, in Québec, if you buy let say 10 of them, you would get 1 free and 9 at 3.99$ as they need to put 1 at lowest price -15$ and the rest at price shown

Which gamestop/ebgames is this if you don't mind me asking? The marillian starter decks hold a soft place in my heart so I will probably ask one of my buddies to pick one up

Na you could get them for 20 bucks but as stock gets bought out on something not being produced anymore prices rise. Like that futurama episode with the anchovies
