>>57254352TPC had no reason to ramp up printing it invest in more facilities. It's just a liability for them. They're already making billions from the TCG. The scarcity of the product, even if it's at maximum production possible, is free marketing for them.
The market will always correct itself because the consumer won't put up with this same thing happening for each new set, only for it to be printed nonstop for an entire year. PE is such a dog shit set for art and pull rates
I can't blame local stores for selling at market. If distributors aren't going to give them the allocation they ask for, then fuck MSRP. I'm not going to sell an ETB for $50 to some 38 year old spic who is going to immediately put it up for $150,after the distribution only have me 10 when I asked for 500 and I have overhead
The solution is for everyone to just stop buying cards. Tell the scalpers and TPC to get fucked for this
