Also of note, every single rookie in both of my boxes were super off centered, like the "line" that goes around the player image was off, kind of like how they were in prizm basketball with the "RC" logo. Luckily, the prizm's were all fine and the only Rookie that wasn't off centered in my boxes was Joe Burrow.

Only small chance it will ever change is if people call and complain to customer service on a daily basis. But for most it's not worth their time.

Disgusting stuff. Maybe if we all call Target and Walmart corporate offices and/or email them the direct Twitter posts like that then they might do something to switch it up?

The thing is a bunch of emails will probably never be read. It will take countless people calling in on a daily basis and complaining. Also its not like most bots are hiding the info. They are even posting the order pics. While talking to a customer service rep message them the links of the photos and bot info.

Yeahhh. That’s a joke. I think I’m going to be out on this and just revisit here and there in the hopes that changes come. But if you’re newer, it doesn’t seem worth pumping the money in when you know it’s going into the hands of cucks who use discord and bots lmao.

I think today was the day that I realized I'm done looking for boxes to rip.

I took the day off for other reasons, decided to go to Walmart and pick a couple things up...

SIX grown a$$ men waiting (for who knows how long) for the MJ rep to show up and stock the shelves....
Three were blocking the end of the aisle and three were blocking the other end of the aisle...

I was hoping that my lack of finding anything lately was just a timing issue, someone beat me to it, but I can't beat people who are just gonna sit there for hours waiting...

I am talked to the rep yesterday nice guy we chat sometimes he even told me he was going to stock one store this morning around 9 but I am not even bothering because I work full time and I am not taking time off to look for cards.

Pieces of cardboard are not worth any reasonable man's time and effort to camp out and block other people from obtaining said cardboard. It's not that serious and never will be but you have to realize these people unfortunately look at this as a livelihood and way of supporting their families. Instead of picking up an Uber shift they're flipping cards. No overhead and there's thrill in it for these guys. Eventually it will end.

I actually don't blame the flippers at all to be honest. The key is to stop paying the secondary market prices then maybe some correction will happen. Until then though congratulations to the flippers for spending alot of time driving down and selling the stuff for the crazy prices.

This. I don't even bother to go to Target, but I'm happy joining group breaks.

I second this. Also you can’t blame them one bit. After COVID hit, there’s a lot of new restrictions on employees. It’s not like these people are qualified to get a job anywhere these days. If you read the new guidelines one key requirement is that all employees “must shower once at least two days with anti-bacterial soap of some kind.” These people are so bad the hiring manager just takes a smell and already knows they are violating the new rules so what else can they do? Can’t even get a janitorial job.

Missed the MJ rep stocking the shelf by 5 minutes. She was still there but the new product was gone. At least a friend was able to get 2 boxes of Mosaic. The store only got 10 blaster boxes of Mosaic and Donruss football. No Basketball, a little baseball and lots of Pokemon.

The desperation in some of these listings are palpable. We’ve entered the $50/blaster range.

Default Terrible price

Outside of Mosaic completely crashing there is no way Megas hit $60. I think the floor on them is $100 to $120.

It's a mixed bag for me. I don't have any problem with people coming across a fresh stock of stuff and clearing the shelf. Most of us would do it if given the chance. I do have a problem when people get stuff through what I believe are underhanded tactics, whether that be backdooring, swooping in taking everything and checking out after it was agreeed that things would be split or doing stuff like mentioned above..blocking off the aisles etc. It's sickening and a big turn off seeing people's greed just seeping out of their pores. Maybe I'm a dope, but there have been a few times recently where I went to Wal Mart happened to the only one there while the rep was stocking and then 2 or 3 more people show up and I have no problem splitting with people (and vice versa, I've been there when someone else was first and they had no problem). I would never tell anyone "I'm first, I'm getting everything"..it just doesn't feel right to me. Like I said earlier, it used to be fun to go check and either find something or know you missed the stock because of a timing issue, but now with people (and multiple of them) literally staying for hours upon hours, there's no point to it anymore.

On point. After fighting tooth and nail for a bunch of Illusions Basketball this month I am a broken man after seeing what I did this week. I may share but likely not as I am not a mean spirited person but let's just say in some locations, you will NEVER win.

Walmart had a case of 20 mosaic blasters, a full tray of Donruss foosball, a few stadium club blasters, and two trays of Ginter. Two other dudes were waiting for these Elite trainer Pokémon boxes that came out today, and said they were the new hidden fates set fwiw if you’re searching today. Gl gents
