With the popularity of the Pokémon TGC card game, various problems have arisen, such as scalpers buying and theft. Some scarce cards have now become financial products and hard currency, but if you want to open a card pack to get a scarce card, you still have to run it. But now it seems that there are physical plug-ins!

Recently, a company called II&C announced that it has successfully developed a new CT scanning technology that can be used to view the contents of unopened trading cards.

However, it is not clear how this technology is presented and how accurate it is. After all, there are usually several cards stacked together in a card holder. Even if the pattern inside can be scanned, it is difficult to distinguish the specific pattern inside.

What’s even more interesting is that the company’s service charges are quite expensive, with scanning a box of card packs costing up to $75.

Some players have said that buying a new box of Pokémon cards only costs 180 yen, but you have to pay 75 dollars to scan a box. Isn't this a tax on your IQ?

Of course, some players also said that cartridge wholesalers can try to buy one of these devices and become rich in minutes.
