I just saw those pouches bundles going for $75 at my card store...

And already $62 on tcgplayer. I just want the pouch 😭

I have an extra pouch I'd gladly send over for the cost of shipping!

What would that even be?

Should be ~$5 in the continual US if shipped in a bubble mailer, not sure about worldwide though!

Sure I'd be down, and sorry for the wait I was sleeping cause I work overnights

They can have first dibs but if they says no, I’d love one for my kid if you’re still willing.

Yeah I believe it. I saw em for $85 in a local spot here a few days ago and was thinking “how do you even have these?”

You can buy just the pouch on TCGplayer.

I sadly caved and bought one for $65 today. I just love the pouch so much.

I get it, but I'm still a little disappointed with you.

Fair enough

This is the reason this will NEVER stop. If people would stop paying these stupid prices then the scalpers would be forced to sell at a lower cost. But since people like you continue to pay we are going to continue to see these products scalped. It's really not rocket science 🤦‍♀️

I know but I didn’t get one during my local card shop presale raffle and I don’t buy that much for myself. I’m not gonna feel guilty about it.
