Ascended Heroes Drop On Sam’s Club Online Was A DISASTER!!

Pokemon Company as a whole does thisnall intentionally to drive the market craze which in turn, the hype drives the market further and more product is purchased. They dont care about the community, only the dollar.

Friendly reminder, everyone can request a refund for their membership at the service desk in store or online with chat. 2am on a week night tells you everything you need to know about Sam's Club, they do drops for bots to scalp not for you as a paying customer.

West coast was eating

The bots lost and humans won. Second wave was insane good

Its 1229 on 7/22 and tap just messaged for pokemon center. Mitch! What's good.

I said fuck it.

Pokémon Center?!?!?!?!?!

I will not camp out for Pokémon and my area is crazy. So I prefer the online drops.

Me and my wife got 2 boxes each in the second wave. But I’m happy no one knew because then the bots can’t just go crazy.

Fuck Sam's Club. Fuck Walmart. They did exactly what I said they would in your live chat. Dropped it at an unreasonable time so bots could eat and they can claim plausible deniability.

What had happened was they froze the listings the moment they went live(why it looked like it was sold out), they then spent 3 hrs purging and blocking the bots, the I.T. guys even left a message of (hold tight) in the items header about 20 minutes before they went live with the products. Once it went live, had no issues adding to cart and checking out.

There were people getting like 80 boxes for one person in store and there is only like 100 stores cross country.

The site clearly told everyone to "hold tight" lmao. If you went to sleep, then it's your bad cos the drop was pretty smooth, but then again maybe it was cos ppl were sleeping LOL.

Was this only for plus members or was regular members able to hit?

I hit on the 2nd wave!

Thought I got cooked then I saw the “hold tight” and was able to cop once it dropped

Come on man, it's like a 100 sales on tcgp. They are not selling at 220 that much prices will drop.

I got two when it restocked at 1 am, it was so easy to get. I was late by 5 minutes and it only took about a minute to check out.

I guess botters didn’t have their bots running at that time.

everyone should have known the drop was gonna have a 2nd wave, both the SPCs and focused fighters had a "Hold Tight" next too it, on the address tab and the product itself. after about 40mins of the stock being pulled

i refreshed from 8pm-10:30pm, fell asleep at 10:45pm, and it restocks at 10:55 pm. such a shitty feeling

I know this is an exclusive, but I’m really hoping to see something like this, when they restock the Walmarts.

Sam’s Club drop gets eat by Bot! When compared to Pokemon Center, your odds are better

I was one of the people that stayed up on the site till like 1 am my time, I kept my hopes on the hang tight message and it worked 😫 and for the first time i got Pokémon online with no site crashes or queue it was so surreal

I was on the computer and got notified by the discord and checked out in under a minute I still had the page loaded on a different tab. I’m on the west coast so it was still 11pm for me.

Mitch I waited in line at 3am at Sam’s club and the cutoff of available Pokémon was 8 people in front of me. My wife was online at 8pm and stayed on until she was informed at 8:40 product was sold out. My wife was not happy I was sour most of the day because I failed to score. I’m known by people who know me that I have a positive cheerful spirit. My wife went back to Sam’s club online at 11:30 and scored 2 which will be arriving at my doorstep this Friday. Thank God for my loving wife. I’m ecstatic. I thought I was cooked. Appreciate you.

They should implement invite only system and you pick up instore with ID verification to combat bots and people with borrowed memberships

PKC does not have it down, i get in que the second it goes live and i end up waiting in it for 5 hours and get nothing lool

Mitch is absolutely 100000% dedicated to this hobby 😂 I’m too exhausted to deal with the madness to even get some product now brother

Glad I got the sleep instead of waiting around for that horseshit.

Didn’t hit in store or online. It was almost as bad as PKC since pitch black. Arceus doesn’t want me to hit a god pack 😢

It was 1am central time for me and I was literally about to hop in the shower before bed when the true drop happened. I was able to score!!!

Did you hit?

I hit on the second wave, had to buy 1 twice bc the cart wouldnt let me change the quantity! I am glad i decided to stay awake

I camped out and got 2, and I used two family members plus accounts and got an extra 4 for 6 total!! It was an amazing day as I never hit online

As always, people like me with life and kids wasn’t able to get this. Good job Sam’s Club. Way to make sure scalpers get this too.

Yeah Sam’s is cooked bro.

They updated the product title after the initial drop to say (Hold Tight), so I thought we all knew it'd still be dropping after they fixed whatever issue. Then they removed the (Hold Tight) verbiage from the title at around 2am and it dropped.

Classic drop

Mitch is mad he took off work and didn’t hit 😂

I knew this was gonna be all a bunch of BS. I did not even attempt any of it.

pc drop today bro Florida Boyz

Damn i didnt know there was a 2nd wave ! Tap didnt say anything !

Mitch you have to address the elephant in the room...targeted ads for botox is there something youre not telling us Mitch?
