It is the same reason certain Targets across the country have started selling cards only for a couple hours on a given weekday. They have signs posted at the displays. People have lost their minds over cards. I feel for anyone buying for longterm investment right now. The money is in flipping.

Our kids are elementary school age, so not much flipping. I had no idea that I should just load up the cart, but I think my wife would divorce me if I showed up with $2000 worth of Pokemon, claiming it was an investment...

Really wish I hadn't let my little cousins crinkle mine all up long ago. Those damn charizards would be worth something

One of my friends is the second largest dealer in WNC. He doesn’t care anything about the cards really beyond the temporary nostalgia, but he’ll spend $4000 buying everything in stock to flip. The worst cards are still selling for $20 a piece.
