RE: A Pack searchers.. haters REVENGE !!!
The wand could have been a metal detector or it could have been something to check for or disable the security stickers inside the boxes.

Haha. This guy looks like he would carry a wand with him for magical powers or something... Maybe Gandolff the wizard gave it to him one day in the shire... Hobbit.

RE: A Pack searchers.. haters REVENGE !!!
This is a new one for me. I've seen scales, the good old fashioned hands-on method and most recently a UV light of some sort, which apparently helps determine if there are sticker autos in a pack. I don't know, but I'm done with retail singles and possibly hanger packs. Blasters only at this point, I think.

Would the metal detector be strong enough to pick up on serial #'d foil? The thickness and wait of a ring card would have to be pretty obvious...

I know I saw him running it over Topps blasters. THAT would make sense...
Do they make those things THAT small now a days... This thing wasn't bigger than like the cans of air...
Even that seems to big.... BUT it was all I could come up with atm...
And that I think of it.... IT did BEEP...

RE: A Pack searchers.. haters REVENGE !!!
Was he waving the wand over packs or blasters? If it is packs then I'm guessing metal detector as others have said. If boxes ye has a shoplifter in thy midst as I would agree with the guess that it was doing something to the security tags.
Well guess you were posting the answer to my question as I was typing it.

My original post was going to be along the lines of "I bet he'll be back, regardless of his sudden BMB fame..." but then you beat me to it with your update post.
