“Would you trade a $34,000 Pokémon card for $30K cash—and trust GameStop to make it happen?” That’s the jaw-dropping question Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray tackle in today’s Ben and Skin Show.The crew dives into the largest single trade-in in GameStop history—a PSA 10 Holo Gengar card swapped for $30,000 at a Grapevine store. How did GameStop pull this off? Why did they troll critics on social media with the line:
“Any prior and ongoing objections to our trade values are now deemed without merit and factually invalid.”
And is this a smart move or a risky bet in the collectibles market?But that’s just the beginning. The gang unpacks GameStop’s bizarre “Trade Anything Day,” where customers brought in everything from bowling balls and speed limit signs to a taxidermied bobcat and even a copy of the Declaration of Independence (cue the Nicholas Cage jokes). With 80,000 random items collected nationwide, GameStop handed out $400,000 in store credit—and now owns a mountain of weird junk.
