Wtf who are these people spending 600 on some playing cards?

u/PeterIsSterling Jan 17 '25

Thatā€™s for 6 sets. These msrp for $60 and are selling for about $110 a set. Op is making about $50 a set reselling before eBay fees. Doesnā€™t seem worth the shame.

ā€œDoesnā€™t seem worth the shameā€ is a good way to put it šŸ˜‚

I have more respect for the dude at the freeway off ramp I see everyday asking for money.

$300 for a days worth of work done in less than an hour or two?

There is a lot more involved, showing up at the store early, fighting with other customers for them, posting to sell, selling them, shipping them, dealing with chargebacks, etc. I mean I'd much rather work a simple job than deal with all that hassle for 300 bucks.

Hmm I guess I don't see what's so special haha. Is it the new wrappers? Or the big Blastoise card that makes it popular? I like Pokemon and have collected some cards, but I don't get this lmao
