The card makers have it so you spend crazy amounts ordering from them to try and get anything valuable but the mega dealers and all the other high dollar "collectors" buy them all up so fast and resell them. Plus CT scanning some boxes and keeping the good pulls and selling the other boxes to people that probably don't have as much money as them. It's BS
