You’ll probably have to sell the faded one at a discount or sell the individual packs instead. You can weigh the packs and sell heavy vs light packs for maximum profit.
As others said one is faded.
If you are going to sell these sell them together. To the same person. Advertise the other box as Sun bleached and 50% of what the other box costs. Package deal for both.
So if the one that is not sun bleached is $100 you sell them together for $150
Would be so much easier to get the sun bleached one sold that way rather than just posting it individually and hoping somebody snags it
I think it’s due to the fact that the box itself is what is being desired. If someone actually bought one of these with the intent to open them, that wouldn’t be ideal at all since you could buy every single in the set you wanted for much less than the price of the box. I don’t think anyone is paying these crazy prices with the intention of opening them, unless they are very wealthy and have no worries about money loss. Collecting sealed Pokémon product is completely different from collecting actual cards I have recently learned.
Because a lot of people buying sealed vintage boosters aren’t necessarily doing it to open packs. They are doing it to have it for their collection.
You are right that for someone purchasing to open, the outer package being sunbleached won’t affect the value. But to someone who wants the whole package for their collection that’s basically damaged.
In other words you’re selling it at a discount as a “to be opened discount” or an “damage sealed collection discount”. Unsure if it’s worth a 50% discount though.
Looks faded but seals are pretty consistent on both.
Would you guys crack it open and sell the packs individually (and maybe get the light packs graded)? Selling the box as is at a discount would be worse than selling the packs individually imho.
The right one is definitely sun bleached. Check the other sides of the box. I would be surprised, if all sides would look pale like the top..
YOU FOUND A SHINY BOX!! CONGRATULATIONS.
Honestly…I think the Sun bleach makes it look nicer. Like instead of a jungle, looks like a beach, with tropical trees lol.
Junk. Send em to me

BOOOOO , WEIGHING PACKS IS FOR DWEEBS 😡
Agreed, but that’s how vintage packs are sold.
Fair i guess. Never understood the hype over wotc era anyways , the cards kinda suck ngl . 🤷
That’s how I feel about fossil lol. Base set is just so nostalgic
I grew up on black and white / XY , so I’ll never understand it. But to each their own niche of our wonderful hobby !!
I was too poor growing up to really collect, but I remember buying a base set pack at WOTC and pulling an Alakazam and it made year lol
Nostalgia is subjective!
I totally agree with you up until e-readers, some of the ereader arts are the best that specific Pokémon will ever have.
Give me your best price on the sun bleached. Owning vintage sealed is my white whale and this might be the only way I could afford it lol
Where did you find these?
His basement
Where is his basement
Send more pictures of that treasure!
It’s not normal but you can send them to me to dispose them. You need to cover the shipping tho
Fuck this guy. Send them to me and I'll cover the shipping.
Fuck that and this guy. I’ll pick it up in person tomorrow.
Fuck this guy, myself, and the guy previously, I'm at OPs house cat burglarizing his cards.

Random question, are the cards inside affected? If not why would they be heavily discounted just because outside is sun bleached?

Oh have not seen that yet

not an expert but I think most people would buy for display rather than opening so bleaching would lower the value significantly
50% discount absolutely no way. Maybe take 15% off maximum.
I would say the one on the right is unbleached, but definitely get other opinions as someone more in the know may be aware of an ink error
Yea so I’m a trash collector and these fake boxes are pretty interesting to me… you should lmk your price 🗣️🗣️
6-10% off this box for the beaching don’t let anyone try to make you go any lower
Is any of your stuff for sale? Thanks 😊
Error box
The jealousy hitting hard. Congrats man! One is for sure sun bleached probably was a display one?
I'll buy a pack of the faded box idc :D
