thank god my local store will be doing etbs at $50 a piece, no limit. but he did say if he sales them at 50 he will slice the plastic on them once sold. which im 100 ok with
@@dond1ddly I think it's entirely fair, that way he makes sure that his clientele can get the ETB for their own personal unboxing and not for flipping, which would deter people from just buying those for investing. For the people who just want to open the packs, that's a really good solution.
I know its a different market than last year, but 151 Japanese was selling for $180 a box after release. Im hoping its a similar situation where they print prismatic into the ground. Give it the crown zenith treatment
I think theyre changing the master ball card for other sets. Its just one big ball and easy to tell apart now. So much better. Its so hard to see 151 MB from reg.
I live in a big city. I usually preorder and also try my luck on release day. Usually it involves an overnight or a super early morning to get a chance. First few people usually buy the lot. I have no choice but to at least preorder above MSRP to at least secure some ETBs. BTW I'm a sealed collector.
I mean, I think Surging Sparks is an absolute trash of a set. Yet, look how it’s performing. Personal opinions of artworks mean nothing. Although, most/all of the community agrees that Evolving Skies has much better artwork, it might not matter. The hype for this set is insane.
Honestly. If it weren't for scalpers, that set would tank like hell. People are only after the alt art pikachu and it's primarily due to hype/resell factor. Look at every other card. No where near as desired.
@marioaltamirno2855 ive seen several sellers on whatnot with over 100 booster boxes. Youre flat out wrong. Theyre buying it up like ps5's and reselling them at a massive increase.
@@LuciferArc1 I don’t believe in scalpers. I think that’s a mass delusion in this hobby. If scalpers are the “basement dwelling, unemployed losers” that others claim they are, then surely they don’t have enough money to make a difference. I think there’s too many businesses and not enough supply. So many small streamers, big streamers, and everyone in between, all ripping packs, all at once. There’s probably been over 100,000 packs of Surging ripped every single day since release.
I actually think Sunbreon(Prismatic evo) is a better card than Moonbreon, and if pull rates are the same it will beat it in price. And I think Prismatic will be bigger than Evolving skies. Anyway, good video as always!
i love the art style of the cards but there aint no moonbreons, bubble mews, and so on in this set. I think itll be comparable to SS on prices but i didnt see any super amazing art that i was like i gotta have that.
@mech0p not so sure about that. Ofcourse it's personal taste, but I truly believe the Sunbreon will beat Moonbreon. It's a card that will be amazing when you see it in real life.
There is over a hundred sets pokemon has put out since conception! Don't be a pleb and have to get the latest hottest trendiest thing, is that what you do when you buy a phone, vehicle, clothes?

I’d tell him I’m not taking it and charge back if he already charged. That’s bullshit
@@dond1ddlywords of someone trying to resale and not open packs
@@dond1ddly for 50 im not complaining....

@@dond1ddly it's to stop scalpers and investors. I think it's a cool idea, ironically I'm an investor.
I will never pay more than msrp if I can't find it on the store shelf I don't need it
Same. For me it’s because I like to open my cards, not collect boxes and wonder what’s inside. I collect them for fun, not an investment
I haven’t pulled a chase of any caliber since vivid voltage, I’m hoping my luck turns around with prismatic evolutions!

all this talk of the team rocket set coming out is getting me so hyped up! i hope its close to the 90's rocket set. the nostalgia would be crazy
i think its gonna be after the gym trainer set so hopefully the hype will die out by then some.

Evolving Cries strikes again 😢
i got my etb for 100 cnd tax and shipping fee including
Is it just me or do the Japanese sets have overall better pull rates? And again some sets seem to hit more often than others. Just seems like it
Yeah Japanese boxes actually have guaranteed minimum pull rates.
@WhereismyPidgey that's awesome news. I just started collecting and I think I may chase Japanese ones
i think master balls in anything thats not a normal set like ss is crazy. Just killed everyones hope to master a set
Yeah that adds a crazy amount of cards someone would need.
I’m just getting into collecting, I’m not even thinking of touching PE
Nice video! Really entertaining!
Glad you enjoyed it!
My birthday was yesterday. Decided to open my entire collection of ES. 32 packs and best I pulled was a Jolteon VMax 😢😂
Happy Birthday, but sorry about the rough pulls on that one! I feel that es pain haha
Did i hear asmongold in the background at 2:23 😂
haha Yes you did that was a edit fail
Love your channel - NEW SUB ✌
Thank you!!
masterball pidgey when?
They are afraid to make it - they know it will be worth a billion dollars.

There's a pidgey on that snorlax. Just sayin.
It is flawless - perfect

prismatic is a special set similar to CZ, so the pull rate will be much more generous
WTF do I do as a new and returning collector? This is too much man.
Making a video on that - it can be overwhelming.
@WhereismyPidgey subbed, thank you brother look forward to it!
