I live an hour away from any retailer that may sell Pokemon. I guess I'll just never get cards again. I can't afford to drive an hour or more on the chance I might get something after competing with a city of thousands of other fans and scalpers.
So tired of just trying to buy a regular product at retail price. Maybe I'll just be done with the hobby. I'm so sad. I love opening packs and collecting cards, but I'm tired of trying to just make a purchase to even try and collect the cards. Guess I'll just put that money towards something else.
I'm starting to think I should give up on this hobby. When it becomes more stressful then fun, maybe it's time to let it go. I'm tired of trying to beat scalpers or buy from them.
