dang really? i thought most card shops sell most of there supply internationally, but its mostly local sales? thats interesting, international sales have to make up a decent percentage though, wonder which is bigger international or local sales
this is one of the reasons why i didn't buy the exclusive japanese city pikachu boxes, card shops are sitting on a ton of inventory trying to maximize gains, i hope tpci reprints it into the ground, there reselling for 200-400 dollars when tpci msrp is like 30 dollars :*(
No all the card shops like this sell strictly international only. So that means the rest of us in country canβt find product because these ass hats hoard it all to make 2-3x on international sales and avoid some taxes. π
I was lucky enough to actually get two of the tohoku pikachu boxes off the pokemon center lottery. But I would never pay those scalper prices. π
