雅虎香港新聞 The Pokémon Company 因梵谷博物館合作展覽周邊即刻售罄而公開道歉
繼舉辦 Pokémon 與梵谷博物館全新合作展覽後，其展覽周邊吸引到不少粉絲與炒賣家抵達開幕現場並進行搶購。周邊產品有印刷畫作、T-Shirt、吊飾和玩具等，包括最受歡迎的皮卡丘頭戴灰色氈帽梵谷自畫像風格限量卡牌和官網上販售的「Pikachu with Grey Felt」卡牌。而 The Pokémon Company 尚未在社交媒體上或是透過電子郵件發佈任何消息，這些商品皆已完售。
近日，官方在 X 平台上表示歉意，並解釋道：「我們向今天熱切等待 Pokémon Center x Van Gogh Museum 發佈的所有粉絲致歉，由於需求旺盛，此系列的所有產品均已售罄。我們知道這讓許多希望透過官方電子郵件和社交媒體得知如何與何時購買此系列周邊的粉絲感到失望。」
官方沒有預料到商品會如此受歡迎，並將問題歸咎於需求過大導致庫存不足。然而，許多人認為此事因黃牛和機器人造成，他們指出很多成年人沒看展覽就買了成堆商品，甚至看到黃牛在網路上吹噓自己的收穫，因此在 X 上批評此公司和博物館處理此事的方式。
目前還不確定是否將重新推出商品以及購買方式是否會改變，有興趣的讀者不妨持續關注。

The Pokémon x Van Gogh collaboration was a disaster, serving as a stark reminder of human greed and lust.
Images and videos circulating online depict scalpers hoarding multiple items from the collaboration, a disheartening sight.
