Spent two days driving essentially across states in Mileage scrounging for anything 151. Probably a total of 40-50 stores. Ghost towns until today I picked up Alakazam promo box, upc, etb, boosters. All in about 2-3 at the final spots i had for the day. First pack pulled the SIR Charizard. 100% worth and 10/10 would do again.
man its so crazy to me that 151 is such an overall good and expensive set, that because the box was 40$, even though you only got 2 hits, those 2 hits are over $20 ungraded, I feel like you could of gotten 4+ hits from other sets and easily been in the same position, lets be honest most of the time when u open pokemon you lose value so you didn't even do too bad
I feel like the sudden price surge cant be sustainable. We shall see though - I hope we see more products like this with fun variations of cards for promos.
I think it will depend on how the next few sets (pika, eevee, team rocket) do. If they're really hype, then money will flow there instead and 151 should come down
@@hobbylair I definitely wish I had bought some of these cards like a month ago! lol - hopefully you’re right and other sets will take up attention but 151 is pretty popular though. I’m so close to being done with my master set. 6 more cards
Im happy I completed both English and Japanese sets early when it was kinda cheap and PSA 10s on the starters char, blast and vena got lucky on those submissions
All day, every day, all the time, it's out of stock :/ I gave up on trying to acquire this set honestly, barring the few poster collections I got from walmart.
Finally a video on this product, thank you. So frustrating TPC giving America this when people in the UK are going for a promo master set. Import cost + scalper price is rough...
I'm also from the UK and these sort of region exclusive releases are becoming a bit of a joke. I'm a Charmander collector, and this exact artwork now has numerous exclusive variants not found in the UK (this one, GameStop stamp, EB Games stamp etc). I ordered this card on eBay last night, and had to pay the same in shipping as the actual card price. The reverse cosmos foil does look good though
@@scottmitchell1992boo hoo. I had to order the 7/11 stamped Lapras. Card was 13 dollars. Shipping was 15 plus tax. Is what it is sometimes. Makes things more collectible when everyone can't get it
151 is overrated just because of nostalgia, so many awesome sets in S&V when ppl allow themselves to enjoy the newest gen which has some amazing new mons. I'd put it top 4, but it doesn't top Stellar Crown or Paradox Rift for me personally.
ended up going and the good ones are the ones out in the middle of no where lol. there were some in rough areas like by trailer parks and those were awful.
I can’t find these on Costco…. They only have the paldean fates tin…. Whyyyyy!!! Why is this world so cruel!!
Soon! Only online for now. Heard these will be in stores next month

I checked online too and nothing
Lol
dont know if you have DG out there, but i saw somewhere they had boxes just not these.
I hope they come to stores I’ll definitely steal a few
can't ever find enough of the 151. Stores never have it and Ebay is overpriced!
And it’s been out over a year. Pretty crazy
@@hobbylair right?? What’s with that.
I've seen ebay sell them for 47 quid compared to Amazon with 60
People are buying everything as soon it’s put up at Costco.
At least you got a couple of hits…
I went through 16x packs in the UPC and all I could get was the regular Venasaur EX 😢😢😢
I really want to get the promos but with the scalped prices on them im not sure i will.
I think the promos will sell for cheap when people buy this for the packs. Just give it some time
I never got damaged cards from mini tins before.. They are always good which always suprised me
Maybe by preventing it from shaking around in there so it protects the card better 🤣
Those sleeves are severely underrated.
Agreed! So good for grading too

Man best mine has is the crown zenith box set with the koridon and Miridon tin sets

Heard people talking about this but they were saying paldean fates?
Yup there is also a Paldean fates version of this. Don’t buy the wrong one!
About the mini tins are they the hard plastic cellophane or the soft ones?
Hard metal tins
sealed collectors dream
💯
Where did you find these?! Our Costco dosent have any.
Costco.com had them for an hour last week before they sold out. Hopefully will be in stores soon!
Im happy I completed both English and Japanese sets early when it was kinda cheap and PSA 10s on the starters char, blast and vena got lucky on those submissions
151 is a tough set to pull from sometimes!
Makes the big pulls all the sweeter 🤣
What state is this in? also how recent haha. tryna open some for myself
This was on Costco.com so not yet in stores next
Looks so cool!!
What city you fine it. ??
Online at Costco.com but it sold out quick. Not yet in stores
All day, every day, all the time, it's out of stock :/
I gave up on trying to acquire this set honestly, barring the few poster collections I got from walmart.
It’s crazy it’s been OVER A YEAR and still not in stock..
Are all the sealed tins 151
Yup! 2 packs of 151 each tin
how did you get them they're not on the site
They were for an hour or so last week and sold out. Usually will go in and out of stock
how did you get this already?
It was available on Costco.com last week

It should get better when these are in every Costco! 4 promos should be pretty cheap since most people would be buying for the packs
@hobbylair when will coscos get them? the one near me just says out of stock
Nowhere to be found where I live.
You can have it, not interested in basic promos.
Bunch of peope selling off their 151 etb and booater boxes locally but it feels like 1 guy with deep pockets is buying it all up 😢
Just when I thought I had a 151 English master set with all promos, they release this 😢
Same, except the voltorbs tho xD
Tough pulls. Still a fun lil set!
Just saving my luck for the next box 🤣
i will be ABUSING my usps/fedex drivers with how much ill be ordering
Whats that outro song my dude? I like it
Thanks man! Haven’t changed it in 3 years so I’ll have to dig it up. Will get back to you!
Found these at my target
You meant paldea tins 5 pack
For the algorithm 🎉
Appreciate it! 💪
They are out of stock 😢

Nostalgia sells! Stellar crown is great and Surging sparks looks insane
I think some of the attraction to the set is because there are no crystal crowns on any of the pokemon.
@@MyBlindRun Fair. Terras are hit and miss to me.
Lol, already out of stock. Classic 151.
Wouldn’t be 151 if it wasn’t 🤣
saw em at target lol
That’s wild! This box or just the tins?
@@hobbylair box tho for 50 so
You've probably seen the paldea 5 pack tin because I did hahaha
@thepsychocat7911
please do the card trick 😭
Too impatient haha. Gotta get my hits!
This was released awhile back, about 6 months ago. I dont think costco have them in stock anymore
What are you yapping about they're brand new boxes with brand new promos that came out last week
They're coming out again beginning November i believe
This is not America. At least not here here in Chicago.
Soon! This was on Costco.com in the US for a bit but sold out. Heard it will be in stores next month!
They sell these on target
The sell the mini tins on target but not this costco exclusive bundle (unless it's a 3rd party reselling it)
None on line . Only paldean
Yeah I’m seeing the same. Hopefully they come back in stock soon!
already sold out i might just bite it and buy a few 6 pack boosters or go dollar general hunting
dollar general hunting sounds fun lol. might have to do the same
ended up going and the good ones are the ones out in the middle of no where lol. there were some in rough areas like by trailer parks and those were awful.
40 bucks and you only get 2 hits hmmm idk if it’s worth it. If I did get it I’d leave it sealed.
Always a gamble! Looks great on the shelf. Especially the promos
WHAT A STEAL HOLY
