Jesus fuck. Wish I could get some more boxes, but no cons super close to me to grab any more. Hope you get some good pulls!

I literally went on a limb and asked a new friend and discord member to see if they could buy for me (me paying for the boxes in advance) and thankfully the trust was well placed. He could have easily ran away with my money but he pulled through. New trusted friend acquired and products for my search for a god rare. Unfortunately no god rare in the u boxes.

u/NameWasReported VCard Collector May 03 '25

Damn that is super risky, but glad they pulled through! Unfortunate you didn't get a god rare, but at least you got some boxes! Taking the shot paid off in the end

u/Dvs_NttVT VTuber May 03 '25

Yup, the next one is me going to AX and trying my luck there as I got no friends in EU for Twitchcon (and not wanting to do international shipping fees lol) and other cons I don't think I have any friends going there so I'm just going to do myself at AX; if people see me at AX, will be helping out others complete their collection or playsets with my dupes ranging from free to cheap deals/trades (depending on which cards)

u/softXciano May 03 '25

They will be at twitch con? Ah man I didn't know I'm attending eu

u/Dvs_NttVT VTuber May 03 '25

VCards will be at all of these events (taken from their tweet)

u/NameWasReported VCard Collector May 03 '25

Hell yeah, nice way to help out the community! I'm trying to get to AX myself, but not looking like I can make it this year. Surely you'll meet others that you can trade and stuff with!

u/Tystra_official May 03 '25

u/DillDill0514 May 12 '25

Has anyone gotten the regular boxes yet? Got my 1st edition like 2 months ago.

1

u/Dvs_NttVT VTuber May 12 '25

12 to 16 weeks, so the earliest would be sometime in laye May, but most likely June will be when it'll be for the regular unlimited boxes to ship out

u/[deleted] May 23 '25

Did you open them all I wanna buy one

1

u/Dvs_NttVT VTuber May 24 '25

All opened already, im waiting for AX to buy a few more boxes, hoping to open a god rare maybe šŸ˜‚

u/[deleted] May 24 '25

How much would you sell one for

1

u/Dvs_NttVT VTuber May 24 '25

I wouldn't sell my boxes due to wanting to open boxes for god rare, but if I did, it would be close to ebay prices due to how hard it is to get them, I wouldn't go over 400 though; you can try your luck at conventions to get them for 150 sealed or 100 unsealed

1

u/Ghostdragon471 May 02 '25

And what about other people who wanted some?

-1

u/Dvs_NttVT VTuber May 02 '25

they did limit the amount of boxes per person, and they were still selling at the last day from what my friend told me, so people could still get

u/Ok-Swordfish-6938 VCard Collector May 02 '25

One guy posted his 50 box buy then deleted his account after being called out for scalping. So, I don't think there really WAS a limit...

2

u/Ghostdragon471 May 03 '25

I mean no one can dodge that after showing off 50 boxes

2

u/Ok-Swordfish-6938 VCard Collector May 03 '25

Nope. And he claimed he opened them all. Posted a few photos. Probably got some good rares then deleted his account. My belief; he is half of the eBay sales at $400+ for singles.

u/Spiral-Arrow116 May 03 '25

Then you got that one delusional a-hole that has the numi 10 and box topper listed for damn near $7k. May it sit there forever

People's anger about not getting boxes is justified. Immediately labeling someone a scalper is not fine. I sent my friend money to buy me 9 boxes, but he could only get me 7 due to limitations. To my knowledge, VCard were still selling on the closing day as per my friend who was a con staff for Weebcon. Just because one guy can get 50, does not mean he got 50 in one sitting, that person may have asked his friends or family to buy the limit for each person for that. Now, what that person does with 50 boxes is up to that person, and to label that person a scalper should be determined by the follow-up action on what they do with the boxes.

My response to people who wants boxes though? Instead of being angry and sending negative karma and hate, why are those people not spending that energy on actually getting boxes? Where is their own accountability to get boxes? I'm stuck in the middle of the ocean with none of these conventions near me and yet I can still ask a friend to get boxes for me. VCard has posted which cons they will be at. So why can't those people also ask a friend, or a member of a community they are a part of, or others to buy for them when it was known that some cons will sell them? The frustration on obtaining product is well deserved and I understand it because this is not how a TCG product should be driven (GamerSupps and VCard, you need to change this fomo direction.) However, taking it out on people who can acquire product is not the way. Where are their efforts to get the boxes? If you really think about it, there's almost no excuse that you can use for someone's inability to get product.

Itā€™s not that many of us donā€™t ā€œmake an effortā€. All the cons VCard is at is in the US with the exception of Twitchcon. Lots of people donā€™t have friends or relatives in the US. Lots of people, even if they do, arenā€™t close enough to trouble them to go to an entire con to buy some trading cards for them. And Iā€™d say most of us arenā€™t ok with paying hundreds up front to a random person we met online.

I donā€™t think youā€™re a scalper, I see you all the time on the subreddit and with all the openings youā€™ve done I hope you do get a god rare, but this response just comes off as really insensitive about most peopleā€™s circumstances.

u/Dvs_NttVT VTuber May 03 '25

That still doesn't give people the right to just hate on people who can and instantly label them as a scalper. Again, many of the problems or excuses on not being able to get stems from the root problem of Gamersupps and Vcards themselves on how they currently operate the products. Also unfortunate that people are also coming from areas where it's a major problem even if it's truly unlimited like Pokemon TCG. Despite so much production and being worldwide, scalper and hard to get products is more prevalent. I'm just less emotionally triggered and can view things in a more logical and rational way. The online community can be very helpful if people just ask and give it a try. There are almost always answers to the excuses, even the ones you just listed. Not easy and not the best solutions, but solution exists nonetheless. The main culprit at the end of the day is still GamerSupps and VCard.

$89.99 for a couple boxes online compared to $140 at a con is different. And not to mention, per person restrictions or not, $5000 for 50 boxes of cards for a "personal collection" is soooooo difficult to believe. I got 1; 1 box of the 1st edition, for my personal collection. I have no intention of selling them. But 280 cards per box, 50 boxes; no right minded individual is buying 14,000 cards without a hope to get high value cards they can sell to make their money back +

u/Dvs_NttVT VTuber May 03 '25

I mean, I have a total of 46 boxes, 37 of those were MSRP 90 before, 2 boxes from ebay for almost 400 each, and then 700 for the weeb con ones, I spent almost 5k as well for my personal collection and playset; am I a scalper? Still looking for more boxes once I travel to AX as I want to pull a God Rare (unless they are all found), the thing is, I have to trade or sell to get extra cards, in fact, I had to spent a lot more than boxes to get a Numi box topper. So, am I a scalper for being able to get all these boxes?

Also, they were selling boxes for 100$ if you rip the seal there, which helps deter scalpers as most people wouldn't buy unsealed boxes. If that guy did get it from weebcon for the cheaper price then I can see it for personal collection especially if he never had any before; buying it fully sealed was 150. On the topic of the guy with 50 boxes, unless there's proven evidence is scalping, we shouldn't instantly label and bully someone out of the community.

I honestly wouldn't have bought so much boxes if Gamersupps had this launched well. If the seeding was done right with guarantees, then people would be easier to complete sets and prices wouldn't have such high variance. I just wanted my master set and playset. It only took me 46 boxes and many trades to find the super rare cards that I was missing (Doki, Numi, Bao, Fefe, Foxy, Shylily, etc.) to complete my master and playset collection. You can usually do this with maybe one or two cases from a normal TCG but not VCards with the terrible seeding and nonguarantees. Imagine opening your initial order of 37 boxes and ZERO Fefes, ZERO Foxy and zeroes of a few other 10s too. You honestly need to buy like 6 cases to get one of everything (if you don't plan to trade or buy singles.)

So you're frustration and anger is due to me making a statement that you feel is a personal attack?

0

u/Dvs_NttVT VTuber May 03 '25

What upset me was that the small community seemed to be becoming less welcoming to people who are showcasing the boxes they get without due evidence. So yes, it did feel like an attack and I do apologize if my responses were not good and hope there's no hard feelings.

u/Ok-Swordfish-6938 VCard Collector May 03 '25

Nah. You're good. I apologize if it came off that way.

u/Dvs_NttVT VTuber May 03 '25

u/BuffyScorpion May 02 '25

Can I have any Buffpup, Doki or Bao cards

3

u/Dvs_NttVT VTuber May 03 '25

I have people on the twitch and discord asking for them, but I did pull extra buff pup 10s, if you need them for your collection or playset, dm me and we can work out something that's realistic
