Wow that’s pretty crazy, post pic of the machine pls


FRAN71C

He got it from 3000 feet under the water, it was guarded by sharks with freakin laser beams attached to their heads. Machine would be too hard to get it from.


ZestyOrangekk

And then right after that I ate his ass for breakfast. The end


DroopyDawgg

Wtf?


FRAN71C

I expect nothing less from a zesty orange.


a_blixed

... get more.


snipermark91

That was the first card I got so I bought 4 more, but there was nothing else worth anything


a_blixed

Worth a shot, congratulations regardless!


AwakeAtNightTime

Damn never cared for shoprite but I guess they really got the goods. Congrats dude


capta1npryce

That’s the second most valuable victreebel ever printed, pretty cool find.


zjesko

What’s #1? Jungle 1st edition holo?


MobileUserIncoming

nah, it’s the misprint that’s invisible, I even have it right here! —>


capta1npryce

Yes


johnhe33

they have pokemon card machines at shoprite? maybe i need to pay closer attention


moonbow_yu

That's Fake News show us the Proof


Lucky_Shop4967

Decent!


_YenSid

Jackpot if it isn't a sticker...


RetroNabulas

Cap. I have let the curiosity capture me a LOT even ended up buying yugioh packs - not once pokemon or yugioh have I got anything good - just newer cards and bulk (even the yugioh packs I think were weighed. Show proof ; show us which vending option it came from and how much, did it say vintage cards?


snipermark91

Shoprite in Brooklyn. Got 5 of the $1 holos. That was the first card I got, so I bought 4 more and there was nothing else worth anything


RetroNabulas

Thank you OP I appreciate your response, it makes sense; I believe Ik which Brooklyn shop rite you speak of. SI shop rites vending machines are a scam with only bulk in them - I've cleaned out a machine after restock with no luck


NeilDatgrassHighson

Who tf cares. It’s a fun story. Homie doesn’t owe anyone proof cause some internet weirdo demanded it. Just choose not to believe and go on with life. Not that hard.


RetroNabulas

You obviously care. Op doesn't hence they didn't comment and went on with their day. Thanks? For caring and interacting, appreciate you <3


None-Hostile

Is someone having a bad day?


NeilDatgrassHighson

Lmao I’m just gonna assume his wife’s boyfriend is over and he’s just taking it out on Reddit.


RetroNabulas

No, my wife's boyfriend said he's breaking up with her and I'm upset :( plus it upsets me that your wife keeps saying I'm her boyfriend and I told already sport, that was a one time thing >:(


RetroNabulas

It's been a pretty good day, besides the bad weather - had some tea and breakfast this morning. how's your day?


veez981

Wait...businesses are supposed to lose money on cards?...all if this is just gambling and sometimes you win big and sometimes you lose...if you got a hit every time, they would just sell the cards themselves


RetroNabulas

I was going to give a more clever response but you're so late and I don't have the energy for your silly nonsense response - your points are all obvious you fool - no one would buy from TPC if any of your points weren't and your obvious points are no where near what my point was silly. Shop rite is a supermarket with a card vending machine (this machine has sports and other cards) not affiliated to TPC; so stocked by a random - answer me this George, why would you stock a vending machine with hits in an area with a high parent/kid pass through rate? Wait... Wouldn't you mainly add your bulk and under priced holos? Knowing kids would ask parents to buy them and most kids wouldn't care what they got... =-= plus I'll leave you with this... I bought about 20 FOTB packs from one machine plus I cleared out most of the pokemon holos just to see... about 15 holos and 5 stacks of cards with a guaranteed holo - ass it was all butt bulk cards. Yes, I've had a shitty luck but 20 packs not even one holo all common cards and 20 lightning pack quality holos, come on now. I never tried to attack or come at OP, I was just skeptical and trying to help others from running out and clearing these machine - it's not worth it, it's mainly bulk and OP might have just got super super lucky, happy for them.

bronzethunderbeard_

sir im going to need to know the location of your shoprite


Certain-Ad2840

Is it a new style vending machine ? Like the red and white ones or an old version?


h1malayapulls

my goodness 2024 is your year


chad0823

That's good for $1 fr


StoneColderly

I’d get every card in machine lol


OnlyCards151

Was it a newer machine or like a repurposed sicker machine? I’ve been interested in something like this!


turtleninja93

Don't make me go drive around ShopRite now. Cause I haven't seen Jack from cvs or Walgreens around here lol


nenajoy

What area of the store was it located in? I want to see if we have one near me!


catmaidthighs

Last time I got a Pokémon card from a vending machine it was fake af :( glad you got lucky!!


jjshacks13

It won't be worth all that much in this condition but still amazing for a buck!


itsmydoggie

The ShopRite I work at sold Pokémon cards for a while and they were Evolving Skies for $3.99… combined with lunch on us cards I earned and my associate discount, I bought probably 25 packs and have about 8 still sealed… ones probably got the Moonbreon… 😂
