However, when I took about 20 of them up to the counter I was told I could only buy 10 of them. When I asked why, they said that meteorite dealers buy them and then resell them for a profit, so they have to put a limit on them or they will sell too many. I promptly bought my limit of 10 and then went back and picked up 10 more and went to the other checkout counter and bought the second batch of cards. I hope I didn't break a state or federal law in doing that? The point is that I thought it was a strange policy for a business to have.
