ONE PIECE Card Game Heroines Edition vol.2 Goes to Geo Lottery Sale
The sealed-box ban and the one-year resale prohibition shift the anti-scalping burden onto the retailer at the register, which is a harder line than simply limiting purchases.
Reporting from 1 source: Inside.
Geo is accepting lottery applications for the ONE PIECE Card Game extra booster Heroines Edition vol.2, limited to one box per applicant at 5,728 yen. Applications close October 1 at 17:59, winners are notified October 29, and purchases run October 31 to November 1. Geo cuts the seal tape at the register and keeps the outer box; resale is banned for one year after winning.
The lottery is limited to a single box, and applications for a box or more, or by the pack, are not accepted. Winners must bring identification, a Ponta card or Geo app membership card with the store rental membership function, and the store purchase screen on their own phone; a printed PC screen or a screenshot does not count. Applicants also need a Ponta card carrying the rental membership function, with their GEO ID and Ponta membership ID linked.
Geo opens the box at the point of sale. The seal tape is cut at the register, the outer box is collected, and only the packs go to the buyer. An unopened box is not sold at all.
