I’m not a business expert. But that sounds like it might be bad for business.
Also you clearly don’t play many card games, because Pokemon is considered one of the cheapest ones to play. It’s only expensive to collect.

I was under the impression that Pokémon decks are pretty cheap and you can just buy the singles you need for competitive play.
Not that that excuse shitty scalper behavior. Fuck those grown ass losers ruining it for actual collectors and kids who just want some cards.

I mean if people didn’t fall for it and left the scalpers to wallow in their wasted cash with only cards no one’s buying to show for it, I feel either they would quit scalping or eventually drop to ridiculously low prices just to make something for their effort.

Essentially all card games rely on scarcity to maintain the fun of opening packs, there’s no point if everything is equally as valuable
Nothing is stopping you from buying proxies if all you care about is playing the game

My Wish: I wish every tcg had the same aggressive reprint policy that yugioh has.
Seriously it baffles me that yugioh, fucking turn one vomit your entire hand onto the board yugioh, is the game with such an aggressive reprint policy to such a point that cards that were worth around 200-300 dollars are now like 5 bucks.

You know buying singles is still better than buying packs right? You can get into the game for pretty cheap

Cards are actually really cheap for competitive use. Most of the expensive card are the various alternate art cards which are identical mechanically

I wish people were considerate of others and trusted each other with respect and kindness instead of opportunities to exploit for personal gain.

I wish for the erasure of all scalpers. Any form of Scalper. Fuck’em.

Better is just “no one ever buy from scalpers again”
We can still keep our random pretty art rare cards, no one scalp since there is no profit.
