it's weird - collectible markets in everything are getting bubbly. some things even mass produced pocket knives that got discontinued a few years ago are going for exorbitant prices.
it's like the internet/social media is creating some mass hysteria FOMO in everything.

- kenjackson 6y agoMan, I’ve been trying to get these for a couple of years!
- renewiltord 6y agoIs this a joke I'm not getting? They're available at Safeways.

- dawnerd 6y agoNo legit, unless you live near the farms, these things sell out first thing in the morning when the stores open. I was seeing them show up on FB marketplace later that day.
- jasonwatkinspdx 6y agoWell, with cards in particular there was a big fad that went through the largest streamers a couple months ago. They discovered that opening $40k Pokemon boxes hoping for holos was an easy way to get massive views. Then that morphed into edge lord / troll style content of destroying super rare cards. That second part leaves a dirty taste in my mouth as these are insanely wealthy 20 something kids essentially bragging about how they can flippantly destroy something other enthusiasts would be thrilled to even just see at a convention, let alone own.
