My parents who are retired and live in Florida have a Sam’s club membership went to their local Sam’s to check for me on release. There was an unopened pallet of them and they asked someone to help. They store helper was wheeling into the back and someone else came and actually purchased the whole pallet as they were waiting for a couple boxes. They saw the guy and asked him for just one for their son and he said “no these are for my business” My father wanted to slap him

People that buy off the scalpers are a bigger part of the problem. Why feed into them. Why would anyone with any logic pay $85 for the zenith box, basically $6 per pack now. Nothing in that rayquaza box is exclusive for it to be $85 and can be pulled for cheaper. The only benefit was the pack to cost ratio but buying from the scalpers removes that one and only benefit. At that point just buy the etbs when they go to $40 elsewhere.

The only thing I'll say is this is one of the FEW time's paying double is okay. If you don't have a Sam's membership that's the price you pay for getting it sadly; if you don't like paying double then GO GET A SAMS MEMBERSHIP! It's worth it honestly and it's cheaper than a Costco too usually. Otherwise if it were released EVERYWHERE and people are scalping then I would dig into that hard. Now if you are having issues getting them at Sam's I do believe the limit is still too high so that doesn't help at all. Definitely should be a max of 3 per order per customer. This way you can open 1, collection 1 for the sealed collection, and display a 3rd in your background haha.

Some Sam's got them in 2 days ago. Keep checking. The initial 96 ordered will likely arrive before the 30th. Then the 190+ will likely arrive on the 30th. They won't likely arrive at once. There were 2 orders. 96 was the 1st batch that was delayed. Then another 190+ is the 2nd batch. Keep calling each day or check for yourself.
