Woolworths Unopened Boxes of cards

[krustyid]

How are people selling brand new Unopened boxes of Woolworths cards on Ebay

This happened last time the cards were out.

The public and paying Woolies customers cannot physically buy a unopened box from Woolworths or anywhere legally.

Doesn't someone other than myself think that they are being stolen, possibly before they hit the stores...IE the loading docks.

I have rang woolworths head office and they don't seem to care.

One of the reasons they ran out last time, was because thousands upon thousands of UNOPENED BOXES were being

sold on bay.

C'mon Woolies!!!

People like me have to spend $20 to get a few cards, and somehow people across Australia have Full Complete Unopened boxes.

If they aren't being stolen, then where, other than ebay, can we buy a full box????

if you do a search it comes up with 2592, i didnt check if they were brand new

[krustyid]

sorry, not sure what you mean.
Search ?? 2592 ??
Look up woolworths cards box
And give Woolies a phone call.
They will tell you in a round about way that they just don't care.
Makes me so angry, that they openly selling them, about a month ago they were making anywhere between $250 - $500 a box

is this about the collectable animal cards ?

[krustyid]

yes.

[krustyid]

one seller has a full unopened box of Xmas animal cards and he wants $900
and he also has a box of the original cards for $250

Who knows?  If Woolworths are not fussed about then I wouldn't be either.

My imagination comes up with a range of options that don't include theft ... maybe they distributed boxes of the cards to their large corporate customers or partners or charities as a gift and left it up to the recipient to determine what they will do the cards - pure speculation at my end .... but who really knows ?

Was only a matter of time before the Woolies card fiasco raised its ugly head again.

Wait for more complaints about 'the kiddies missing out' again.

And again,  I got my 2 sets early

Gee I'm 6 months pregnant and I will be the shame of the labour ward when I can't present my new born with a full set of Woolies cards.

Can someone please help me, I am beside myself as to how I will be able to raise a normal child without the full collection.

(Sorry to all those who take the matter seriously)

I thought you were past the childbearing stage.
