It's almost like the entire narrative is just bad faith tribalism.

I thought Nintendo games never went on sale? 🤯
It's new math. In this new approach, the important thing is to ~~understand what you're doing~~ rebroadcast the narrative, rather than to get the right answer.
Sometimes I think my main hobby is collecting boxes, and my secondary hobby is building Gunpla.

Your box collection must be astounding if beauty like this is your side gig.
There's different quantity limits on different items. Some are only one per.
That said, the mods weren't scalping (at least as far as I know). Unlike a lot of other storefronts, once you put something in your cart on PB, it can't be sold out from under you. So people were loading up their carts and just letting them sit. Then someone on discord would say "is for me? 👉👈" or whatever, and someone would remove one from their cart while the other person refreshed like mad. They did this for HOURS when the II Neo Zeong was reprinted a few years ago. Their justification was that they were making sure the kits were received by fans and not gobbled up by scalpers. But it's still gatekeeping. People who weren't part of that Reddit/discord clique? Well, they can get fucked I guess. 🙄
I cannot articulate how perfect this synopsis is.
I paid dearly for mine. Compound interest is a bitch.
Love this song. The live versions with Floor are also fantastic.
Its saving grace is that pretty much everything comes back around if you're patient enough. I absolutely hate the timed preorder game, especially when there's not enough quantity to last more than a few minutes. I have missed every PB Efreet drop. 🙃 And then there's nonsense like the r/Gunpla mods running interference by loading up their carts with something in high demand (like, say, II Neo Zeong) and letting them go one or two at a time to make sure the in-crowd on discord can get their orders in. Buncha bullshit.
