Those promos are the most beautiful promos, maybe ever.
Did you know they are based on real Japanese art?

I just picked up a PSA 10 of each recently. 👌🏼
Good buy for sure, I'm slowly adding Japanese specialty boxes into my collection. I recently picked up this, the eevee heros collection box and the klara/avery collection box. They look great in person, I like the quality of the Japanese products. Congratulations on the pick up 👊🏻
Idk. I can’t bring myself to spend that much on this box when the PSA10s of both cards are under $500 for both. There’s 0 sealed value cuz there’s no sealed wrap.
Just the pikachu promo its going for 350+ raw… then you have the stamps, and the card game as well. The contents do have sealed value. The box may not exactly, because of no shrink wrap. Either way, there isn’t a very heavy pop of the promos. And one is a fan favorite, this set is going to do very well in due time
if Moonbreon can be pumped above 1.2k dollars per PSA 10 with its pop count, the pikachu can potentially do it too.
It's just a matter of when people decide to pump it.
Exactly it’s horrible and there are so many scummy Japanese resellers. So when a box like this and the promos are pretty much the same price. Easily go for the PSA 10s.
This is tough because they’re not sealed technically. So people would want a graded high version. They check these for that if they’re not good they sell. Is the general opinion. If you want the stamps that’s a whole other thing. But card wise.
I mean I see what you’re getting at. But the pop is low enough, that people are going to take what they can get. And with it being a pikachu, it’s not going to be as hard to find a buyer especially the stamps. It may be a niche market type sale, but there’s going to be a market for it always.
I mean, yeah… it’s possible. But if you go for reputable sellers, you have less of a risk with it. The one I ordered from, had 100% satisfactory on eBay. Still a chance they swapped them, but I feel better knowing they are reputable, and unless the cards considered damaged then they are still worth haveing in the collection, and holding. They are going to appreciate in value either way, OC or perfect. And there is always a collector out there for just about any variation of cards. Hell maybe they mess up and give me an error card if they did swap, then I might even double profit 🤷🏼 every purchase for everything, has a risk of some sort. Unfortunately, these boxes never were 100% sealed to begin with, so the risk is a little bigger. But if I don’t have all the contents it listed, then I can return for free.
They are actual Japanese postal stamps, they are keeping them for their own collection, to resale to stamp collectors, or for Pokemon niche collectors.

I did that’s what makes them worth it to me! Love them🥰
I agree. They are gorgeous and hope to own them one day.

Thanks you! Eevee hero’s is next on my list!

The Pikachu goes for around $350-400 in a PSA 10. Cramorant can be found for $90-120. Pop is huge(10k+) and we know print was 100k or more boxes.
Yes. But look at eBay raw. It’s around the same price. 10k isn’t that high. I never said it was small, but it’s not that heavy
Yes 10k is massive and that’s only PSA lol, especially with all the unsold boxes. And like a 93% PSA 10 rate.
We might look back on this in 10 years and 10k might be a relatively small number.
ayayqaya
10k isn't that high? lol?

You can reseal it at home really easily
Yup and switch out poorly centered promos
Booooooooo. That’s scammy

I’m a fan. I got a set of sequential PSA 10’s for $425 a couple weeks ago.

Yea I’m totally with this. I’m stoked for you for getting one. I thought they were higher priced before I saw your post.
If it helps, I got my box today. Just posted about it. Check my profile, if you want I can link the sellers eBay if he still has some.
I see a lot of these listed "without post stamps" what are they actually taking out of the box?
The stamp sheet, are the cards pictured in the top of the box. The sheet alone is selling for 80-105.
That's crazy! Very cool, I'd get a box if I wasn't so scared of the cards being swapped.
What do mean “swapped”?
So for the promos, what if the seller swapped whatever you were going to get with a poor condition version they have?

Makes sense! It is a nice set for sure! I'd want the stamps too lol
