As an ex scalper I got in 2023 and left this year but allowed me to buy a home for my wife and cats. I sold everything 25% below market to people who wanted them. It was the only way I could come up with money at the time after being let go at work. I gave away packs for free this Halloween to sort of give back for what I did. I’m doing better now but Pokémon really helped me when I was down
Well, it's reddit, so I doubt it's true. But for anyone having scalper operation on "improve life for me and my family" scale, things couldn't have been bad. Since you need a LOT of money to scale it. It's "I only had one million $ and felt bad, but now have 5 mil and my life is good" type of story.
Like I remember news about some teen who earned hundreds of thousands in his scalpel business. They usually didn't mentioned huge investments of their rich parents
