Getting sick of collecting LPS

I’ve gone to every single target,meijer,5below, Walmart near me. Most times they didn’t have them well they’ve had the new series recently, mommy and baby,nastya, basic blind boxes, and the pet pairs. Every single box is always taken, nothing left behind ever.. not even the display. If you do this I just want you to know I don’t care if you want to finish the whole set cause most of us don’t even collect the new series for the first year they are out cause people like you take boxes on boxes and these places don’t get restocks from lps like they do normal toys. Wasting gas money and time just to find something I really like from my childhood, I play with them even. Just makes me so mad to see people grab boxes and say “well I needed the whole set” maybe it would be easier to get the whole set throughout time if you just shared when u take boxes it just starts a chain reaction of everyone taking boxes. And ontop of that people in Canada can’t even get these pets so I know half of the people buying all of these are buying them to sell for triple the price so the Canadian collectors have to pay so much just to even get one singular lps. This community is very greedy sometimes, I barely ever seen anybody willing to help others with their collection, finding pets, trading. Makes me disappointed.. I have better luck getting old gen shorthairs than the new series. But then when I go to buy old gen’s all I see is these people trying to sell each pet for 100 a piece. I also got a mod on me in another LPS server saying this is the company’s fault but I fully disagree I think the community has gotten to selfish and no obviously that doesn’t mean every person but majority has become selfish and doesn’t care for the other collectors and it truly makes me angry people want to keep blaming other things besides the fact we have not been talking about the fact this space is so toxic now for people who want to come and collect or have been collecting either way you get these selfish mean people that either scam people or take everything. I have met maybe 3 people in my time of collecting that are nice and those people aren’t huge collectors and just started collecting I feel like everyone is so on guard now it’s made them hateful and selfish.

Sorry if this is all over the place I am just fed up with the greed people have, I have only ever grabbed one of each cause I KNOW people will want them but now it’s making me want to just grab all of them cause who knows who will get the next thing cause they will probably just take the whole thing anyways. Or when people bid on lives on whatnot for LPS and just spend so much to outbid everyone in the live and leave nothing for the community that’s trying their best to have these items aswell😒

Idk if this will get taken down or not but I think it’s stupid if it does it’s a thing that should be talked about idc if people don’t like it :/
