Print your own and start putting them on the machines

Honestly, I think they should be a ban on ALL Vending Machines for a few months to let scalpers die off. Rough but I think this is a solution

The Mcdonalds ice cream machine of 2026.

Not even Team Rocket could do this. Scalpers truly diabolical.
DamGoodAnimation
Good. These machine’s should’ve gone a while ago, back when people first started fighting over them.

Manager clearing machine after hours lmao

Is this the Chapel Hills in Colorado Springs?

Good. If these losers are causing problems and stores aren’t willing to enforce loitering rules to prevent customers from being harassed then they shouldn’t stay.
KillerConfetti
Good. They need to get rid of all these because people don’t know how to behave themselves. I’d NEVER put one of these in my establishment and I love pokemon and love the idea. As far as I’m concerned, there isn’t a safe, fair, and fun way to distribute them in these dedicated machines.

Instead of putting up a sign saying that kind of behavior wouldn’t be tolerated and will be punished to the fullest extent of the law including loitering, they decided to just say take the machine out of service. Must have been pretty bad.

Good, because those morons are adding to the problem

Wait, like, my Chapel Hills mall?

The things people will do for a $50 profit.

Honestly pokemon just needs to do a print on demand service.
SupeRadGuy
Good. I’ll be happy when this finally dies off again

If this hobby keeps getting darker we’re going to see every retail store stop carrying cards. Totally unacceptable that people are getting violent over mass produced Pokemon cards. I fear with the upcoming 30th Anniversary set things could spiral even further. Too many greedy people.

This is how the mania ends. I keep feeling like this whole scalper culture is going to end because people get bored of things and like all fads it will pass.

Just plug it in

My town got the same treatment. Removed the whole machine and replaced it with one of those tall mesh towers that have the kids balls in them
Soggy_Factor9208
Go ask them if they have any stock
Slamsonthegee
Good these were dumb anyways
loveyourneighborbro
General managers are turning it on when store is closed lol

Good now the rest of them need to go too

Scalpers wouldn’t exist if collectors would just stop buying resale. It’s simple and easy to fix… just take a break from Pokemon
PilafiaMadness
Yup, people are nuts. There was a fight recently at one of the Walmarts my mom stocks and now a couple of them are no longer putting out product and you have go get it from customer service

As a person who loves buying Pokémon, I can say comfortably that only scalpers go to these vending machines. So good riddance.
Bustmywallet
GOOD! F em
House-Business
At my store we had like 20 group grown men waiting to get them. And was overhearing their conversation how some own some stores and make profit mostly online.
And these people dont know anything about pokemon always be seeing them scan the prices to make sure they cost less than online prices.
