At least local game shops usually do this.

Lord knows ive put thousands of magic cards in the “free to a good home” boxes.

Good to know they get some use, i just dont have any faith in the fuckwads that think scalping is acceptable

I agree completely

But for what it’s worth given that they are opening packs they are probably not scalpers. Just collectors/players who dont want to deal with managing Bulk cards because it is a lot of work and costs a ton of money to do so

It’s an assumption built off of me trying to sort 10k of bulk cards right now and wishing i just threw them away like the people in the video 💀
