A couple years ago the local supplier got in between a fight between two people at Target and injured his arm. Over sports cards!

On a whim cruised by my local Target yesterday. Had to laugh...

Fred has officially retired and the manager said it had gotten crazy. The small area of cards did north of $1 million in sales according to Fred.

Saw a pack searching Pokemon geek. They even have tricks for the cardboatd/plastic hangers.

    Yes this is national news and all Targets have this posted. There was a fight in a Target parking somewhere in the US and a gun was involved.

    I have friends in the card production business. These guys have been doing cards for 30 years. They’ve never seen anything like this. Even crushes Michael Jordan years. Pokémon cards are 9 months behind.

    No.... just lost interest due to the 6 month and 12 month waits on getting my bulk orders :)

    Coins have always been a love, but like cards too... picked this up recently for the long term PC

    That's what the prospect of making easy money will do to otherwise normal people.
