I Know A Deal When I See One :D

Even so, most places that deal with trading card games are NOT specifically in the market to do business with singles. In my experience, a lot of the places I shop for any TCG singles are primarily sports memorabilia places, such as dealing in sports cards or other things. Hell, I've even seen novelty shops in malls that sell singles behind a counter. And from my experience, most of the time, their prices are off. (Usually on the too-high end, but sometimes on the too low.)

All I'm saying is that if I walked into a shop, saw a Shaymin sitting behind a counter marked at $25, my first action would be inquiry. Why is this Shaymin priced so low? Is there a defect? And if the shop owner showed any kind of confusion at my inquiry, I'd simply inform them what Shaymins normally sell for. It isn't hard to show a little gratuity and help someone out. This particular shop owner lost out on half of a bill because of this. Do you think he's going to be pleased with himself should he find out what Shaymins REALLY sell for down the line? I know I wouldn't, but I do know that if it were ME in the owner's shoes, I'd definitely appreciate the SHIT out of someone informing me of my pricing error.
