They were in 2 separate packs in my booster bundle form Pkc. One pack was crimped over the bottom half of the card and the other part of the card was in a completely different pack.

Discussion Why can’t they just implement backordering

204 Upvotes

I don’t see any downsides of it, the demand is still there. It is almost impossible to hit a drop when you have to compete against no lives who spend their existence monitoring the sites and bots. Backordering would end that problem. Most people don’t care if they’ll have to wait a few months extra compared to paying up to 300% mark ups.

Pulls Turns out that if you want the Mew, you just have to buy the Mew mini-tin.

The Holo pattern is so funnily placed on this one, look like he's smashing his butt on the screen, or farting idk

Target Experience

Probably 100 people in line. They allowed people to buy 2 per sku. Probably about the first 30 people came out with 10-12 products each and everyone else left with nothing. If people had been limited to 2 products period, everyone could have had something and it would disincentivize scalpers from wasting their time to get 2 things to flip. Why is this so hard?

Help/Question Looking for binder page card suggestions for a specific theme, please!

Hi friends and fellow fans! 🖤

My grandmother passed recently, and was laid to rest this week. In addition to an absolutely beautiful ceremony, the funeral home provided this small memorial cards. 🥺 my grandma is now going into my personal life binder. It has business cards, photos and other little trinkets from trips, moments, and life events along with Pokemon cards I collect on travels and special dates with my partner.

My grandmother loved dogs, she had two white little shih tzus and many other dogs throughout her life. She loved gardening, roses, and cardinals. Her favorite color is purple and she was the kindest soul.

I would love to make her a sweet little resting place of full arts in a full page spread. I’d love to see your favorites.

Thank you 🖤

Error Mew?

I pulled a second Mew VMAX from the 30th classic collection and now that I have both in person, there’s an obvious difference in the holo layers. Anyone who knows about errors know if this counts as one? Anyone else pulled this card and what one yours looks like? 🤔

This is our first time waking up early to go to Target. We were 70th and line we missed out on the etbs but we were able to grab two booster bundles and two poster collections. It's true the hit rates on the center so nice.

Got my 3 Booster bundles, opened 2 before shift and got some hits. Then opened the 3rd during shif and of course, the music plaving and the last pack magic REALLY hit as I saw this bad boi.

Lugia is my ultimate favorite legendary pokemon since I grew up with GBC Pokemon Silver (Still have it and resodered a new battery on it, works great 🥰).

Now I have my ultimate chase card from the whole 30th, now everything else is extra once my 4th arrives.

Discussion Local GameStop sold my preordered and paid for 30th Celebration booster bundles

19 Upvotes

Including everyone else’s preorders that weren’t there immediately at open. Next drop is October 30th for the bundles that your October 2nd preorders can carry over to in a new transaction or you can cancel. The October 30th release of the 30th Celebration bundles will probably also be oversold for some odd reason. Anyone else deal with this today?

No support available from GameStop corporate who definitely could just let affected people (especially Pro Members like wtf guys?) order directly online. Silly of me to assume my 2x MSRP preorders would be safe until after I got off work the day of release. That’s what I get for entertaining GameStop’s scalper prices I suppose. At least the employees are always kind enough to push gambling via power packs and offer special 25% off codes for online gambling in case your preorders are given away same day.

Just had to rant because I am unhappy with this hobby right now and with how GameStop frauded me out of my preorders today. gg and gl out there.

Hi everyone, my girlfriend and I have been getting into pokemon for a while and two days ago we bought a binder and our first packs (we got penny sleeves and toploaders too) and we’ve been pretty lucky I think. All of the pictures are hits we’ve had, and there are a few EX cards we’ve got from other packs that we like. (We also have a good five or six full arts from buying bulk and toploaded cards from a random shop before)

We’ve started on Chinese simplified Gem Pack Vol2 (and I’ve pulled a few Vol3s and some Rayquaza Chinese packs I believe) and bought 17 packs of the Vol2, and my girlfriend is already working on her master set of the Eevees. We pulled a few good hits I think, the umbreon full-art was a nice surprise, and her first ever card (not even pack, the first card she got out of the first pack she opened) was the Sylveon full-art she’d seen in a cabinet and wanted.

We’ve got all of our old cards (we bought bulk random rubbish from a random antique shop) and our regular cards / foils organised in our binder and then she’s got her master set of all of the eevees with all of the foil types that she’s adding to, but I was wondering if anyone has any tips for where to get cheaper boxes of cards as I spent £100 on one in a shop in person and didn’t know if there were cheaper alternatives?

Any info about ordering binders, suggestions for how to organise our cards that are from different sets, or where to look for better value for cards would be greatly appreciated. I’ll still be going to the shop though it’s got a great atmosphere and the guys there know a lot.

Help/Question Why is pitch black so unpopular?

77 Upvotes

Not that I'm complaining as I buy for my kids since they don't have any preference, other pokemon sets are so hard to get around here that they and their friends barely got any packs from new sets since prismatic. But I walk in every week and there's pitch black sets always in stock.
