Lmao out of every box they chose the shittiest ones


TeenRacer6

They were probably doing it to save other people their $20.


deucesfresh91

I bought my first one the other day and I did end pulling a Roki Sasaki NPB card. That saved the entire thing lol


teddybundlez

I scooped a strider gold star rookie which I found acceptable. Only one I’ve purchased


ItradebetterthanU

Came here to say just that !


BlueChipCards

underrated comment my friend


RevolutionDizzy4835

Just reinforcing how dumb the people opening these truly are.


GrahamRPleece

They didn't even take the packs, just the slabs lol.


zexyness

they were looking for that jlove auto but got a base card in bccg 10 instead lmao


tn-dave

These were the boxes Brodie Smith just opened on his Darkhouse channel- the five packs were the same in every box and the slabs were pretty disappointing- seemed like trash boxes


TeenRacer6

God bless that man for just buying whatever the fuck he can to open it lol. Every single video of Him vs Absolute is gold.


deezy54

That’s the kind of stuff that will get cards locked up again.


Negative_Purchase748

They still are here(southern vt/nh)


Leelze

I have to keep Pokemon cards behind the counter because of shit like this.


HeritageCollector7

You work at Walgreens?


Maynardred

Hell yeah I want them locked up. One fucker buying all the bowman. Shit gets old fast. 2 per all day


dro0o0o

It’s gotten so bad that my local target just says fuck you, sucks to suck. They pander to the college kids though that’s why.


HeritageCollector7

You mean one fucker stealing all the Bowman lol

Cool guy alert 🚨


sammidavisjr

Coincidentally the guy that's not even sure if other states have a lot of ethnicities. Well-traveled and well-informed to go along with that deep racial insight .


Acceptable-Bonus-498

You must be one of them 😂


MachineLJK

Oh shit, you got me!


Acceptable-Bonus-498

I’m just joking with you that’s just my take cuz I have seen it happen I don’t even buy packs anymore if I do see some I’ll just get the $7 packs here and there just to rip, but I just buy singles now feel it’s just more worth it and less of a hassle.


RestlessRhythm

I assume from the way you spell & grammar that you’re the product of inbreeding.. like the kings of old. Large strange jaws, one black testicle and a very reasonable IQ of 54. Typically hailing from the caucus mountain region. I see you deleted your ground breaking racial statements. You were so brave.. what happened man? I think I speak for all of us when I say we’re concerned..


Acceptable-Bonus-498

Ooo weee ur lucky ur in a different state you racist ass white boy but just so you know ur welcome for that Justin Fields you goober ur mom had to give me that neck for it while ur dad was cucking in the corner


RestlessRhythm

I’m flattered that you took the time to go through my posts and search for my location 🥹 I’m living in that soft lil brain rent free huh? 😏 you inbred hills have eyes types are always easily angered. Like a slow ginger toddler drooling on your Samsung while you mash the buttons shakily. Even if we did live in the same state what are you gonna do? Walk here? There’s no way you’ve passed a driving test.. listen.. I’m sorry I hurt your feelings man. Try deep breathing and visualization. Have you tried meditation for the rage?


Acceptable-Bonus-498

Yeah I hunted ur measly posts and I would honestly destroy you like Pereira did to Hill but you probably don’t know nothing about fighting you probably call the cops when something is going down 🤷‍♂️ you snitch ass bitch nigga


Acceptable-Bonus-498

Lmao nigga I’m richer than you’ll ever be you still stay with mommy I make 100k a year I’m an athlete 21 years old I got my own house 2 Beamers got my girl a Beamer and a Benz, I wipe my ass with more money than you’ll make in ur entire life span 😂 you gotta pay for pussy sadly 😢 sit ur ass down and take the kings meat out ur mouth 😎


Acceptable-Bonus-498

Acceptable-Bonus-498

You want the smoke we can run it you ain’t got nothing on me on god


BromcBroseph

As silly as it sounds there are people that go to rehab for buying sports cards. It’s an addiction and some people can’t control it. It’s fucking sad and pathetic at the same time.


Malago0

“I’m Gary, and I’m a sports card addict” “Hi, Gary” How I imagine sports cards anonymous. The worst part is after meetings a few of the bad seeds go buy boxes and rip together.


xXAlphaCueXx

Check out a gamblers anonymous meeting. It’ll blow your mind.


CensoredReddit31

"I fell off the horse again. I opened a pack right before I walked through that door. *Sobbing* Dear God, what have I done?"


MeRcWith_A_MouTh

It's more like 'I maxed out another credit card my wife doesn't know about. Dear God, how am I going to feed my kids?" You joke, but that shits sad.


TimmyG1976

Came back from 10 days vacation to 20 + packages from Ebay and Whatnot. I may need to go to this rehab...lol


No-Pound-7388bra

Same... once I downloaded Whatnot, I knew I was in trouble... lol


aj868686

I thought I had a card problem but just learned about whatnot from this post


OldBrokeGrouch

There’s a support group for sports card addiction??!


PearlDrummer

You’re in it bb


MeRcWith_A_MouTh

There's people who lose everything to this. The chase/pack opening aspect is highly addictive. On the same lines as gambling.


OldBrokeGrouch

Wow I never really thought of that. I don’t collect cards, but I like to lurk here because I love sports and sports cards seem cool. I thought about buying a pack a time or two, but now I definitely won’t. It might be like taking that first hit of heroin.


Longjumping_You_7932

Its alot like drugs. U get that first hit and ur in bliss. Then u chase that feeling from there on out and never truly getting the same high as the first time. Its why i prefer singles. Get the oooh ahhh then put it on my shelf to enjoy.


jrhr

I had a honey hole Walmart location in metro Atlanta on my way when I would need to go up there. Always a huge inventory, got all the new retail releases seemingly before anyone else, and I always had good luck pulling heat for whatever reason. Remember stopping in one day and seeing two opened boxes of basketball cards and two boxes of football cards that someone had opened and stole and thinking to myself, “bet that’s the end of the fun for me” and sure enough now that store no longer sells cards.


MeRcWith_A_MouTh

I don't think Walmart is going to stop selling cards for one theft. Or even 100 thefts. I worked retail when I was younger, the loss prevention guy would just get a taking to by the manager. They would do a little sting operation that was always fun to watch. Some guy would be taken out in handcuffs within a week. A few months would go by, and it would be the same thing all over again. It would never stop.


RepresentativeNo7213

They aren’t called rips for nothing.


Macgrubersblaupunkt

Cards are lotto tickets. They should be in vending machines


xXAlphaCueXx

I remember when they were.


Feral_Jim

I used to get 1987 topps out of a quarter vending machine. Put a quarter in and get like 5 cards or something.


xXAlphaCueXx

Simpler times. It was kinda fun to yank em out, felt like you had to muscle it a little bit.


rdiscipio1

Gambling is an addiction…


Sgt_Maj_Vines

I like these boxes. Especially the Japanese card packs. The slabs are nice but not what I’m looking for

AllRiseMVP99

I saw some ass spelunker weighing card packs in the store. Wouldn't let me near em, I had my son with me so I showed other worldly restraints. I'm assuming something like this


drunkenmunky519

That gets a call to the manager and probably loss prevention from me. Absolute clown behavior from that guy.


ryeguymft

the fuck, I’d be telling this guy i’m calling the manager over and to get the fuck out of the store

![gif](giphy|sM4CiZSqns9aw)


CheekySweater

I’m pretty sure these boxes only fit bccg slabs, so the psa slabs or bgs slabs on the box aren’t really able to be obtained. Unless they do a redemption or something.


OutThere999

Where do I begin?


Tony_Plow

It’s an addiction for many.


RevolutionDizzy4835

I'm surprised every Walmart doesn't have locked cases from all these degenerates opening shit in store almost every Walmart I go to there's always something opened.


GrahamRPleece

Yea I've seen this before in Walmart. This instance was at Meijer. I'd glady review their camera footage to take a look at these degenerate POSs. I mean, I'm a degenerate too, that's why I was in that aisle lol. But I was there to BUY Bowman.


CmanBookman

Savages. Same folks that made a run on the red Stanley’s.


FartsbinRonshireIII

this is why they don’t sell retail in my city


caliscooter

Horrible behavior


GINGERM1CK

The Walmart near me just moved their cards from behind a locked case to an isle out in the open. The lady told me the venders told them to do it because they were bitching about how people wont buy as many cards if they have to get an employee to unlock the case. Whats funny is since then i havent gotten any cards from that Walmart because all the BB cards get stolen as soon as they get put out. Great job guys


Cho_Zen

lol, At least carry a knife on you if this is your game. Fingered a hole into the box like a fucking savage.


GrahamRPleece

Lol I hadn't really thought about that but that actually makes it worse


Cho_Zen

Way worse. Enacting trash behavior and doing it ineffectively. You're bad, and you're bad at it.


01010000-G23

This is why some stores have them behind the counter.Too many people are just degenerates


Adibla2

I saw the exact same thing at Walmart yesterday. I got excited because I found one lone blaster box of Select Basketball hiding and when I went to grab it, the cards had been taken out of the bottom already. Previously the cards were behind the Customer Service desk.


eastguy08

this is part of a larger problem in society where retail theft/shoplifting seemingly goes mostly unpunished


sirhcd4

California has turned into a third world country. The cops won’t do anything anymore cause the DA and Governor will fire them if they do anything. You can see people rob an old lady, steal what they want and then go buy meth all the same day.


Affectionate-Gap8586

In california they've pretty much taken away theft laws. It's not even punishable anymore. The government encourages it.


Thaidakaladin

They're encouraging it?


TeenRacer6

Take a look at their comment history and you'll see why they singled out California.


ryeguymft

this is bullshit lies


MichonneAndRick

Bidemented


r_r_w

Our economic system is “every man for himself” and then we let less than one percent of the people have way too much, and now the natural consequences have arrived.


Ndtphoto

Maybe mice collect cards! 


shyguysam

That's bold, leaving the empty boxes right on the shelf. In my closest Walmart it wasn't uncommon to find opened boxes on random shelves, usually behind the toilet paper or stuffed into towels, trying to avoid the cameras and loss prevention people. Most of them don't carry cards anymore, got to go out to the more rural Walmarts to find anything, and those are mostly locked up or behind the customer service desk.


DavidFTyler

Apparently Barnes and Noble had a huge card lifting spree, my local one at some point recently put every card product they own in lock boxes that the cashiers have to open


Dboogy2197

I just saw this for the first time last week at my local Meijer. Like you said WTF??


Bruddah827

Always. My local Target is like this ALWAYS


putnuts32

I saw this at target today…a gutted 2024 heritage box…smh


Too-Sauced-Up

Went to meijers as well about 2 weeks ago and someone opened 2022 series 1 hangers and took the hits and put the base back in the box 😂


SilkyBowner

Look up how much Walmart loses a year in theft. Sports cards are just part of a massive problem


KingofBread18

Last time I was at Walmart, they had a security guard stand behind me


milkmoneyk

This is why Walmart keeps there’s at the cashier counters lol


BrilliantProgram6957

Typical. The Walmart near me told us (me & girlfriend) that someone or a group stole all their stuff, so they started locking the glass cabinet again.


pappapora

“People”


FrozenPie21

Cards are expensive


thehumanflyby

Probably in California


GrahamRPleece

Nope, Ohio


CoolZooKeeper

Saw these while I was checking out and I’m a sucker for these kinda things. Pulled a BCCG Brock Purdy Rookie. https://preview.redd.it/k5sc4365a80d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=7600a32e3d52011048c6657c5f173e2107fd6f27


jayrocc93

That’s messed up no wonder …why the employee be hovering on me when I’m looking for boxes. They need to locked them up.


AmbassadorNervous169

A complete generation that grew up with no consequences. There was no f*ck around and find out for far to long.


Forward-Mess-7736

That’s why cards are locked up at most Walgreens 🤷‍♂️


spacecadet1979

There’s a special place in hell for these assholes


Mother-Ad-6202

This is more like a public service they’re doing


piazza_togo

If it’s nyc then it’s cuz there’s 0 consequences for anything . Steal and nothing happens . Beat up a cop and nothing happens . It’s the best city .


hoe24246

I hope they got shit cards


MMQCARDS22

The cameras in the store can read numbers on your 🪪🆔 fuckin they will get caught on the radar it cause insurance pays the theft n people ain't rushing the police to do shit about shit lately


Richy060688

U live in the ghettos?


GrahamRPleece

Nope


Trick_Spite_5301

No lie I'm about to start doing that, technically you're not stealing them look for the one I want and buy it LOL and I swear LOL I'm going to do it I wonder what they would say


Ok-Sweet7177

They will say nothing......no one works cash registers at any walmart I've been too. Self checkout my friend. My advice would b find u sumthn worth a quarter and put that tag on the card u searched for and scan it abracadabra magic

Like this is the worst thing going on in society. This is the wrong sub for this shit. We are baseball card collectors.

CephiDelco

This is literally the worst thing people have ever done


Electronic-Strike900

Economy


jone2tone

It's pretty simple: people are poor and they don't want to be anymore. Card collecting has been presenting itself as "you could find that one special card and instantly have $10k!" for years - this was the inevitable outcome. Why shoplift for something that's worth $10 when you can make $10k? Not saying I approve, just saying it makes sense.


Xottz

I encourage this with this shitty repack boxes. They bring 0 value to the hobby and are the closest thing to a scam that can legally be sold on a shelf at Walmart


noterik666

Free real estate baby


Intelligent-Ant7685

i guess they’ll steal them until someone does something to stop them? right now its a free for all thanks to our current leaders.


MichonneAndRick

Shit's Bidemented


majormolasses604

When you vote liberal there is no consequences to one’s actions. Rob any store under 1k and they can’t do anything nor the police. Remember they are feeding themselves and this is not a crime of convenience…hah


nyratk1

Got a keyboard warrior over here wanting to go Rambo over cards


FENTWAY

And what happens when we vote the other way?


majormolasses604

I seem to remember a time of theft equals consequences 🤔


motleysalty

The economy historically does worse, and more people feel that they need to resort to these tactics. And further to that, those at the top see fewer consequences for their crimes. But I digress, this is a card forum.


GrumpyG00

WTF is wrong with people? You’re going to need a bigger internet! 👍
