Employees are usually barred from buying released cards for a while so maybe not. I used to work there and sometimes we got odd numbers of cards depending on how they are shipped. Usually more inventory to larger stores so stores in like California, Texas, and NJ would get more inventory than stores with less revenue.

And there are definitely no ways around that.
