Перекупщики Pokémon плачут из-за большого тиража

На изображении сатирически показана реакция перекупщиков на юбилейный набор Pokémon 30th Anniversary. Они рассчитывали быстро распродать товары по завышенной цене, но Pokémon выпустила большой тираж, поэтому наборы оказались доступными для всех, а спекулянты остались с кредитными картами, долгами и непроданными запасами. Ниже приведены несколько гневных сообщений от перекупщиков: они жалуются на слишком большие объёмы поставок, низкий спрос, отсутствие дефицита и потерю прибыли. Комизм строится на том, что люди, зарабатывавшие на искусственном дефиците, обвиняют саму компанию в финансовых проблемах малого бизнеса.

Pokémon scalpers who were hoping to rip people off for the 30th anniversary are crying and shitting themselves because there’s enough stock for everyone. SoHo Icey, 2:50 PM: I don't know what to do. I maxed out 3 different credit cards buying as much 30th Anniversary stuff as possible. Everyone was talking about it for over a year. It's the most hyped set ever. Why did they make so much? What am I going to tell my wife??? There is no way I can offload all of this at a profit and my local stores aren't accepting returns. I've been nothing but loyal to this brand for over 8 months and this is how they treat us? They knew it would financially ruin people. They knew the secondary economy they created. They are no worse than a communist government controlling their currency. Pokemons greed ruined my livelihood. Reggie B., 3:39 AM: I'm seriously considering taking legal action against Pokemon. It's disgusting that they didn't share exact print numbers, pull rates, and how big the supply truly is. They overhyped the set, making us secondary distributors the victims of their marketing. Honestly, this could be a RICO violation if we find that they purposefully did this to take money out of our pockets. No one has supported Pokemon more in the past than us, helping distribute the product at fair market value instead of underpriced MSRP. Reached out to a few attorneys already, if you want to get in just DM me. 30th Anniversary? This was the last straw. Paul, 12:43 AM: Pokemon needs to do something. Everyone can get multiple ETBs, and as someone that got over 2000 from Pokemon Center, Walmart, Amazon, Target, and Best Buy drops I am PISSED. They made way too much supply and it's hurting the people that actually ensure their business makes money. The hit rates are way too fucking high too. There's literally no value in these sets because everyone can pull the rare bullshit. They need to find a way to stop any more supply from hitting the market, buy it all up themselves, or do something else. This is insane and hurting countless small business owners like myself.
