I had such similar feelings when I first attended SDCC in 2022 - it was a really . . . disheartening ? experience being sometimes surrounded by individuals that really had bad intentions. For 2023 I made it my mission to acquire as many con sticker pops as I could and sell them for retail - I know it was such a minor drop in the bucket - but it really helped me feel so much better after coming home from SDCC this year just knowing I put a little bit of goodness out in the world to combat some of the bad behavior!! Also just surrounding myself with as many GOOD people as I could at all moments at the con also just helped with it all. Loved this video!

First of all, thank you for watching! There is a very obvious distinction between the intentions of those who are there to collect & those who are there to resell. I think getting pops for retail and assisting others in the community is so important. I have my own opinions about flippers in general, but I think using box to gain an advantage just makes things even worse. It’s one thing charging more than retail because you woke up early and waited in a long line, but it’s very different when you cheated to get there.

Amazing video, I know about using bots for online purchases didn't know it was used for the fundays or funko booth lotteries. That's crazy to think we have to compete with that.

It really takes the fun out of Funko, but people will always do what they want to do I guess! 😅

I don't have any rewinds yet, but I would instantly buy one for The Lion King. I'd love if they made Rafiki with his staff & the chase can be of him holding cub Simba.

To be honest with the whole buying bots thing, it ruins it for me because I really want that monkey D Luffy want poster and the only way to get it if I had to pay $90 or $129 to get it collecting these pops is my hobby, and helps me clear my mind

I agree! Unfortunately some people see our hobby as an opportunity to make money, so they take advantage and make things more difficult for collectors to find in stores
