The craze for Pokémon does not stop at Oreos. These aren’t the only Pokémon collectibles that are sold online at absurdly high prices. In 2021, Pokémon playing cards gained immense popularity. In February, McDonald’s Pokémon cards were available on eBay for $500 or more. Pokémon playing cards have increased in value. Therefore, few shops have to pull them off cabinets. To avoid scalpers stealing them.

Looking at the craze and history of the Pokémon merchandise, these high price selling Oreos look like a proper plan. It is possible that pretty soon, these scalpers will sell extra valuable collectibles too. On the charge of those excessive worth tags, it will not be shocking to see them sell complete merchandise for $100,000 or much more.
