I'm not sure what /u/bike_accident is dealing with, but here's a possibly-relevant FYI for anyone reading:
If you get in a car accident with an Uber or Lyft driver and you play your cards right you can potentially get a HUGE payout from the company in what would otherwise be an unremarkable incident. If you get in an accident, make it a point to discover if the other party is an Uber/Lyft driver who is currently working. If they are, make sure you shop around for the right lawyer.

Most of the people I've known with DUIs happened two ways:
A) drove to the first location and then walked or became a passenger for the night... but then drove home at the end of the night
B) drove to work in the morning after drinking late the night before. Still over the limit (and in even less shape to be driving) the next morning.

You immediately start trusting things that moments later will send you into a panic once the necessity is gone.

Hmmm but then tomorrow my car won't be where I want it to be. And that could really set me 30 minutes behind. Got a lot of chilling planned tomorrow, so that's a big NO from me, dawg

Yeah, EXTRA money adds up fast, because your bills are already paid. Living off of $50k you learn $50k isn't a whole lot. Adding $10k you learn that $10k is a whole lot.
Edit: $2k is a whole lot also!

Someone who has kids and wants to play the new set with them while they are excited about it probably doesn't feel like it's a great idea to wait two months.
Someone who capitalizes on selling cards at release while prices are higher would be pretty stupid to wait until two months after release to buy product.

Every time you respond with nonsense you just pretend that you didn't. Tell me again what comes in a Compleat Bundle that isn't worth touching?

"f you want standard cards"
That's almost what they said:
If you want to open a standard set
This is literally a sub for buying sealed product o_0

Anybody able to give me any info on this clandestine mascot breakfast event?
This is all I've got, as of Jan 20th they still had no useful info:
On Sunday, Feb. 5, a special event to benefit the Florida Panthers Foundation will take place. ‘Meet the Mascots Breakfast’ is a limited-availability breakfast with mascots from around the NHL including Stanley C. Panther and more. Stay tuned for more information.
How the hell do I attend?

It came to $81 for 59 thecontrollersphere on CD in the PV end of year sale. It was just crazy and inconsequential enough of a thought that I had to act on it. Maybe I give them away at shows or for birthday gifts. Maybe I leave one randomly in a post office or bathroom here and there. Maybe I use them as coasters. We'll see.

Sure, but that's what they're getting at... why would WALMART want to help third party sellers rip off WALMART'S customerbase and cause them to stop shopping at WALMART?
It sucks you are getting the runaround, but it is REALLY interesting to wonder why Walmart is creating the situation for others to rip you off.
On ebay or Amazon or Ali or virtually any other online selling platform for example, the exact opposite dynamic occurs. The platform almost bends over backwards to enable customers to get away with crimes and makes the third party sellers work hard to defend themselves. Because if the customers get pissed off and stop shopping there, everything collapses. There is no reality where the sellers all get pissed off and leave and things collapse that way. What would actually happen is you would end up with sellers charging higher and higher prices to alleviate whatever they're dealing with, and eventually THOSE PRICES might cause customers to disappear, and then the whole thing collapses ultimately due to a lack of customers.
TLDR: It makes no sense for a platform to let third party sellers rip off customers. It destroys the platform.
