Pokemon continues to be a massive IP and its merchandise and especially its trading cards are hot property these days. Scalpers have been buying up all the Pokemon branded items to resell at higher price points on online marketplaces, but one North American retailer is trying to fight back. Target now seems to be limiting Pokemon merchandise and TCG cards to one per person to stop the bulk buying and reselling. Hopefully other retailers start following suit to put an end to the scalping of Pokemon products.
Thanks to SonicGalaxy27 for sending in the news tip!
I saw that while I was browsing the vinyl section. I feel so bad for the parents who want to buy Pokemon stuff their kids for their birthday and they can only get one item. Screw scalpers! I think those are the people that everyone hates.
Meh…
Yu-Gi-Oh Needs this too. I’m sick of these Scalpers and Hustlers.
I would laugh if all those crappy Hau, Hop, Avery and Allister plushies got scalped because nobody buys those.
