Youtuber Gets Raided Over Trading Card Drama

A private company sending a PMC to raid someone's house to take trading cards is like the ultimate dystopian cyberpunk overlord scenario

Legally speaking, this would have had to be handled in small claims court. Point blank without a court order, and a sheriff doing the actual confiscation, this was blatant burglary. A private company's contractual agreements with retailers have no legal power against a consumer. If they used intimidation to enter and acquire, this is armed burglary. Whoever at wizards sent them is complicit in an armed burglary. This is a lawsuit and jail time for many people involved. This YouTuber needs to lawyer up.

If he has a receipt and they’re claiming it’s stolen. He has the fattest lawsuit imaginable IN HIS HANDS.

This sets a dangerous precedent, especially for more historically cruel companies. Imagine Nintendo sending you an unreleased ultra rare on accident and you wake up to see John Wick looming over you.

-is annoyed at their reputation as bad guys -takes a job to intimidate someone for a relatively benign issue. Nice job there guys.

Hiring a private security company to solve an illegal issue like this would most definitely be considered vigilantism. There’s no way this wasn’t a federal crime and this boy better be lawyering up.

Arthur: The pinkerton agency still exists and you want to hit an aftermath collectors box?! Dutch: We need those foils Arthur!

Pinkertons: "We don't wanna be seen as evil" Also Pinkertons: raids a dude's house for some fuckin trading cards

Pinkertons: We're sick of being portrayed as bad guys! Also the Pinkertons: Let's take this job where we attack someone for doing nothing wrong.

“Dutch! The Pinkertons are here ! What the hell did you do?” “Now, listen, Arthur: all I did was receive some trading cards. We sell ‘em and we’re on the fast-track to Tahiti”
