Pokemon Go

Don’t go to Target and buy the gift cards. They are ripping you off coins.

    It looks like they’re a better deal than buying the coins directly in-game but apparently not as good a deal as buying the coins via the website.

    The cards are probably good if you’re buying them for someone else. Easy gift. But yeah for personal coins use the web store.

    Ripping off people is exactly how to get out of a boycott, good job corporate

    don’t goto target for any reason… ever… they don’t care about the public or their employees

    Technically it evens out if you include the price of the charmander hoodie, which is 200 coins on the in game store. So if you stay under 2700 coins you’re fine.

    Target has been ripping people off for years.

  8. Pokémon Go (Niantic/Scopely) probably still sets the parameters for the value of the gift cards being sold. They WANT you to buy DIRECTLY from them (Niantic/Scopely) so THEY profit the most amount of money. Not Target.

    Yeah- But for 50 cents less poke coin value- You get an all exclusive ugly charmander hoodie that nodboy wants 🤣

    Or you could just use a service like everybody else, i’m an ambassador in my city one of two and I’m here to tell you Niantic does not give a shit if you buy coins from a third-party vendor. They will totally take note of it, but they won’t actually enforce anything. A small amount of my cities group are spoofers and they never get banned. It’s crazy to see them come to the meet ups and nothing ever happens to them.

    lol never buy in store unless they have hella promotions

  13. KeyLimePieFanatic

    Well no shit they made the online store better so you can purchase directly off them. Before that the cards were better.

    It’s the same in the app lol. Buying direct from their website has always been the best route *if* you’re buying bulk coins.
