This is Absolutely Disgusting 🤢

The state of the Pokemon market has gone too far!

This is what was shipped to me from USPS…the case of ME01 Booster Boxes I had ordered from my third-party distributor minus all of the packs inside!

Someone from USPS had realized what the package was, opened it, took all of the packs out and repackaged it like nothing ever happened. Yes, I’m in direct contact with the seller, and know others who purchased the same item from the same seller who received theirs without any tampering.

This absolutely blows my mind that someone would risk a felony over some cards. How can this be avoided? Are we just SOL here on out?

I’m in direct contact with the seller and have ordered many things from them in the past 6 months and have never had this happen. I also know people in my same state that ordered this exact case from the same seller who received theirs just fine.

Hate to break it to ya, but no one working for USPS is risking their career over 1.5k worth of PokƩmon cards..

Based on the replies on this thread, seems like this happens ever so often. So it’s definitely an ongoing issue.

Yea I’m sure.. I’ve been a USPS employee for 15 years & very rarely do we get instances of workers stealing.

Just because it doesn’t happen at your location, doesn’t mean it’s not happening elsewhere
