>>57528508>cont'dthe average comic or game store out here has been sitting on early SV or late SWSH for at least year now, in the form of booster boxes or on shelf blisters-sometimes sleeved boosters. they heard about the second boom of pokemon a month after prismatic evolutions dropped and their MSRP stock vanished. panic mode kicked in and since then they've been rounding up unemployed zoomers to go buy shit off shelves for MSRP, to sell at a maximum $60 profit. I've been watching all of this shit happening in real time since january, keeping tally and I promise you the most any of these shops made was $1000. the average yearly rent for a small brick and mortar shop is $45,000/yr.
