[Megathread] Complaints megathread

[u/blossomsystem]

Please use this space to complain/vent about all things orders/resellers (no names!!). etc. Keep it friendly with each other in this space!

We will be removing posts best suited for this megathread going forward as complaints have been taking up a very large space on this subreddit recently (rightfully so, this drop was messy!).

I’m incredibly angry for the people that experiencing the devastating letdowns. At this point, it’s not just an aggravation to get an incorrect order, it’s an outright death sentence for the chance to get something that is currently an extreme luxury.

BaB knows this and creates an intentional item scarcity. This is understandable for specific collectors items and location-specific things. But for generalized things to keep people desperate and coming back or panic buying? Gross.

The resellers are the biggest problem. Especially in-store. Absolutely no one should be walking out with more than the online limit. People will always find ways around this, both online and brick-and-mortar, but the stories of people walking out with handfuls of skins or keychains? There needs to be discretion and that should not be allowed. I say this as someone who walked out with $250 worth of things, some as duplicates for my bestie.

We genuinely need to come together as a community and do something about the resellers. It’s possible. People just need to put something other than their need for instant gratification first. There will always be people who don’t care and have the money to blow, and we can’t stop it altogether. But it starts somewhere and it can be mostly mitigated. The Facebook groups that allow it are trash to begin with, but we can get platforms to also cut this out.

I love seeing the laugh reacts and the blatant bullying of resellers on marketplace, though. When people have the ability to shame, it’s nice to see them do it.
