Yes. So much so that it will cause massive damage.

The fact that Wal-Mart is offering some kind of tutorial to show people how to play is mind boggling in and of itself.

My local Wal-Mart employees can't even tie their shoes, much less teach people to play a card game.

The game is surprisingly still big, I buy boxes of booster packs and sell cards individually on eBay on the side for some extra money. Some of the new cards fetch over $50 each. Regarding the Wal-mart event, according to what I've heard, people went to this event across the country and at nearly every store the employees had no idea about the event, so it was a waste of gas for everyone who went.

Could you explain a little more of which new packs are actually worth investing into to turn around and make a profit on, because this sounds like a very good idea.

Not to get off track, but the walmart over here I guess was supposed to do it, but no one showed up so they never held it. I wonder how much those special pokemon cards are going to be worth on ebay...
