Scalpers

Resellers are listing newly announced Pokémon Lego sets on eBay for significantly more than their retail prices, shortly after pre-orders sold out.

Fans hoping for the exclusive gifts face steep markups from scalpers.

The Pokémon Company and London’s Natural History Museum have announced a jumbo promo card for their upcoming exhibit, designed in a way that may discourage scalpers. The “Pikachu at the Museum” card will be available at the event and select UK retailers. This follows a chaotic collaboration with Amsterdam’s Van Gogh Museum in 2023.
