You can buy trading cards in lots of stores. Pokémon, soccer and so on. It's hard to draw a line without banning those as well.

- sidewndr46 7mo agoOK, we mandate age checks. But what is the minimum age? Am I in trouble if I make a straw purchase of that product for someone else?
- thaumasiotes 7mo agoYou can just ban them. Pass a law that says if someone buys an item the identity of which is undisclosed, and they're not happy with it, they're entitled to a full refund.

- hkt 7mo agoPokémon can probably have it's immense (and insane) secondary market attributed to its gambling-esque qualities. It'd be perfectly fine if people could play with decks they chose and cards were sold at a uniform price, provided the game itself is balanced - which is to say gambling elements in these things are probably by design.
