Girl it’s YOUR SON BIRTHDAY why are you on twitter dedicating essays to me??? For the love of god go to chuckie cheese

@MikeBotkin_ @Apple @UPS @MikeBotkin_ This is actually a years old issue. Type in “Apple package stolen ups / FedEx” and you’ll see many almost identical stories to this on Reddit. Also this justice.gov/usao-nj/pr/thi…

Crazy. Has anyone heard or has this happen before? I ordered a new iPad from @Apple Delivery scheduled today via @UPS UPS driver knocks on my door and tells me this…. Then tells me that some guy flagged him down on the road (a few min away from my house) and told UPS driver he has a package for him (me), and he will take it, he’s in a hurry and needs it for work. The UPS driver confused, tells him he has to deliver it to the address, and keeps going. Driver gets in his car and follows him to my house, as the UPS driver gets out of van, the guy goes up to his door and says he needs it now, pulls out an ID to show him. The UPS driver made him sign for it and gave it to him. (Didn’t look at ID bc not required). The guy takes the package, gets in his car, and speeds away. UPS driver suspicion is now high, walks up to my house to verify and see what’s going on. To his surprise/fear - I walk out and confirm yes, I am me. …. Now we are waiting on police. …. Fact 1: This guy knew my name and my address and that I had a package being delivered today. SUPER scary. What do we think the probabilities are? 1. My email or Apple account is ‘hacked’? 2. UPS system is hacked 3. Apple is hacked?

Orange County, CA man going around with fake money and fake Pokemon cards - share for awareness

@SakurasCardShop I don’t even spend $20 without researching exactly what I’m buying lmfao who spends $100+ and doesn’t even understand the product? Idiot

🚨HELP🚨 Guys please do your research. I don’t know what else to say. Just research. This customer purchased a terastal festival booster box and think they received a booster bundle. Also English booster boxes don’t have 20 packs either. Please, save me and you the hassle and research things. Please.

@PokemonDealsTCG @Anthuknee_TCG @nappyguch I’ve seen the exact same screenshot of the 10+ order confirmed Pokemon center emails on like the last 4 drops 💀

eh, also wouldn't read into that either. a lot of pages like to get engagement via the "bots took it all" vibe as well, equally unhelpful. Like the email keyword search screenshots where they highlight "Pokemon Center"? Those are super easy to fake. Everything I've seen that is legitimate so far indicates to me that Pokemon Center has improved bot prevention significantly.

Guy gets mad at scalpers clearing the Target Pokemon shelves #pokemon

@SakurasCardShop Yeah you could reserve it for items are that most susceptible to scalping like the prismatic SPC - a real buyer will care about the inside contents versus a scalper who just wants the profit. Obviously sealed collectors who just want one get a bit screwed tho

@RandomPokeStuff I could, but I believe I would have to put that in the description up front

What is one way to make sure customers get a chance to pre order items vs scalpers? Limiting certain items to customers who have been with since since x time will push new customers away. Putting a minimum order limit doesn’t work because scalpers and bots could just buy one item to be qualified. Putting a form up will not work because yall don’t read and I won’t read😂 112,000 customers and I bet most would fill it out and I ain’t gonna sort through that lol So how do you determine who is eligible?

@Sneaky_Steals For journey together or the poster collections? They shipped my poster in like an hour lol but no journey together emails yet

Check shipping emails from Pokemon Center!!!!!!! ⚡️⚡️⚡️

@dr_pants @PKMNBayArea You’d be surprised - I know people who go wait hours a day in hopes of a vendor coming without knowing anything 😭

@PKMNBayArea 3rd scalper waiting now. They must know something.

Bay Area Restocks Thread - Wednesday, Mar 19 Please comment with any in-store updates 🙏 Check this thread before heading out to see if it's worth the trip Check your GameStops for possible Surging Sparks restock ⚡️ Also been seeing 2-Pack Blisters with SwSh packs popping up

@MartinB252681 @PKMNBayArea Can someone check if they restocked it gotta know if this guy really spent the whole day waiting for nothing 😂

@PKMNBayArea Branham as of 10am

Bay Area Restocks Thread - Tuesday, Mar 18 Please comment with any in-store updates 🙏 Check this thread before heading out to see if it's worth the trip Haven't seen a vending machine restock in over a week. Any day now...

@PKMNBayArea Based on the running and ravenous behavior I saw over some stacking tins and normal blister packs at bridgepointe I’m not surprised lol

Tanforan Target just restocked and everything got wiped in 90 seconds apparently 😳

@MartinB252681 @ChrisM769869103 @PKMNBayArea What’s he going to do about it anyways? There’s no official “line” - anyone can show up and be “first in line” at any time even if there’s others because Safeway has no official line or waiting area for these and the machines specifically say no loitering

@ChrisM769869103 @PKMNBayArea I guess this location is okay with loitering. I brought it up to their staff and they do not care.

@PKMNBayArea Prismatic*** not prosthetic

@PKMNBayArea Foster city bridgepointe restocked but sold out of prosthetic. There was some desperate scalpers scrambling for the shrouded fable ETBs / houndstone boxes / stacking tins. One dude was even on the phone bitching about how the manager limited him 💀
