The Issue

As a devoted fan of Hazbin Hotel, it's disheartening to see how the current sales method for promo cards is ironically turning away true fans. The excitement of collecting these limited edition cards should be a joy, not a source of frustration, particularly when scalpers exploit the current system to overcharge fans.

Scalpers have taken advantage of these sales, buying up cards in bulk and reselling them at inflated prices. This practice not only undermines the integrity of the fan community but also affects the revenue that could be funneled back into supporting Hazbin Hotel. To combat this, a few improvements can be made to ensure that true fans have fair access to these cherished collectibles.

1. **Communication is key**: Implement a two-step communication process where fans first receive a heads-up email notifying them of upcoming sales, followed by a drop email when sales commence. This will give collectors ample time to prepare, reducing the advantage scalpers have traditionally held.

2. **Pre-sale implementation**: Conduct a pre-sale for dedicated fans. A pre-sale allows fans an early opportunity to secure cards before they are open to the general public, ensuring that the most passionate collectors are prioritized.

3. **Quantity limitation**: Limit the purchase to 5 cards per address. This measure can discourage scalpers from bulk-buying and potentially create a more equitable distribution among collectors.

**Full retroactive application**: Consider holding special sales events for past promo cards under the improved system. This would not only satisfy long-term fans who may have missed earlier drops but also inject new life into past collections.

Implementing these changes can benefit both fans and creators. Fans receive the collectibles they adore, while creators maintain and potentially even increase their revenue through a fairer system. Together, we can cultivate a thriving, dedicated community around Hazbin Hotel.
