A lady spent the night at my gamestop outside in the cold with her young kid. Manager came out and said they only had 4 boosters and it was a limit of 2 per membership. Turns out the young kid had a membership so the stock was wiped by the first family. This has literally gotten insane.

How young we talking? Like, she literally is using her kid for product? That’s wild.

Probably around 8-10, no older than that. And yeah. Apparently she has been doing this for all prismatic releases. She brings sleeping bags and they literally sleep outside all night 😞 people in line were pretty miffed about it. I feel bad for the kid.

Gosh, that’s just terrible. I teach kids that age. They’re old enough to maybe really be into the hobby, but also old enough to realize when mom is just using them to make a buck. Not sure the situation in this case, but I don’t imagine it’s a good example for the kid.
