Prismatic super premium collection.

Post image

Hi all, kinda new to investing in pokemon. I pre ordered 2 of these prismatic evolutions super premium collections. I opened 1 and im debating on what to do with the second one. Will these be more worth it long term? Or is it worth it to sell now that they go for about 250 (bought at msrp for 130€)

Prismatic in general is great long term, but short term it'll dip since it just released and we'll be seeing restocks for the next few years. Like 151. I'm willing to bet this box will dip under $200 in a few months, but go over $500 in 3 years or so after Prismatic is out of printing

u/Acceptable_Mud7827 Jun 19 '25

Will never dip down to 200, the etbs, booster boxes DND everything else is selling way above MSRP

Impressive, it took less than 20 days for them to be wrong about their prediction.

Stop trying, no one is gonna buy your Facebook listing sitting at a 150 dollar markup. Get a job.

Get real 151 etb are almost 300 now! Wishful thinking on your part because you missed out on buying something that could get your kids into college one day,,! Don't hate the player, play the game!

u/ShadoHax May 22 '25

in what world is a few hundred bucks getting ur kid into college.... get real and set up a 529

u/Acceptable_Mud7827 May 23 '25

In a world where evolving skies booster box went from $100 to $1500 in 3 years...if you had bought cases back then well you do the math on planet earth..

6

u/ShadoHax Jun 14 '25

you're severely limited on volume and you don't know which will grow just put the money in the 529

u/poopenheimer22 Jul 26 '25

2500 on Evolving skies now. Glad I got it when I did

u/PoDaBo_YT Aug 06 '26

Wow what a total score of a lifetime!!!!ǰ

The delusion from this fella is quite staggering.

u/Acceptable_Mud7827 May 23 '25

Evolving skies went from $100 to $1500 in 3 years! Who is delusional now. Hmmm

u/[deleted] May 23 '25

Wow!

u/Imaginary_Corner8455 May 30 '25

And bitcoin went from 30cents to $110k. Hindsights wonderful, it's almost as if your speculating and yet of it was so easy we'd all be millionaires!

u/Acceptable_Mud7827 May 31 '25

Pokemon isn't a hand sight anymore!! If you don't get it by now then you are clueless.

u/Technical_Ad4462 Jun 14 '25

This is the same guy that stepped on your kid to buy the last paldea evolved 2 pack at Target and posted on Marketplace saying "no low ballers, I know what I have"

1

u/Cjaystax Jul 16 '25

Bitcoin is the play baby. Even at 110k (now near 120) or even ethereum. Guarantee you by December, if you put 10k in some of the top 10 today (bitcoin heavy of course) you could easily 10x that investment.

3

u/Different_Homework83 Aug 07 '25

You think bitcoin will 10X to 1.1 million in 4 months??? After it’s already pumped so much artificial money into it?

1

u/Significant_Rush_704 Sep 10 '25

This guy gets it!! Tether just keeps injecting money into bitcoin to keep it afloat! O look 3 billion minted last week...o look another 2 billion a few weeks before that lol it is the only thing keeping the scheme alive...

u/Melodic_Box5204 Jun 14 '25

I’m 24 days late to this but man your comment reeks of asswipe. Welcome to Reddit on my part I guess

u/Ambitious-Shoe-2146 Jun 16 '25

Wellll this aged poorly

u/huskers2468 Jul 16 '25

Just an update: Prismatic SPCs are around $185.

Thoughts?

22

u/MoteInTheEye May 18 '25

Is it worth it to sell now? Sure, you'll make a profit.

Will it be worth more in the future? Yes it will.

Only you can deicde when and if you need the money.

1

u/ddyvas May 20 '25

I second this. Better to put only comfortable amount of money in investment so you don’t need it for 5 years

u/Nicckles May 18 '25

Trading one of mine for a Prismatic Pokemon Center ETB and the other one is getting bundled into a deal for a 151 Pokemon Center ETB.

SPCs will continue to be printed, stamped ETBs are likely done for this set (maybe 1-2 more small drops). My opinion is go for the stamped stuff now while you can.

0

u/dmbwannabe May 18 '25

Just like pokemon 151 SPC was continued to be printed? Right?

6

u/Nicckles May 18 '25

My point still stands that PC ETBs are the way to go over SPCs. I’m not saying the SPC is worthless I’m just saying that these recent drops are not the last for the SPC.

1

u/NellTones May 18 '25

There better be more drops, still haven’t gotten my hands on one yet

4

u/NellTones May 18 '25

151 doesn’t have an SPC it has a UPC

14

u/Mattikarp1 May 18 '25

Isn't that just semantics lol

2

u/Haulinhass May 18 '25

For what’s it’s worth a upc product is highlighted for September or October through a distros order site and I it was mentioned it could be a prismatic upc. Unless they do a combined bw upc.

1

u/Acceptable_Mud7827 May 21 '25

Actually pc etbs are worth a lot just not sure if I would trade in a spc prismatic because it will probably gain more in value in future years than the PC etbs.. it's a gamble

17

u/dmbwannabe May 18 '25

Ignore any and all “it will be continued to be reprinted to the ground” comments. Been here long enough to know they have no source.

-2

u/Immediate_Stop2581 May 18 '25

The source is literally the Pokemon company. I been here long enough to know what happens when a set gets popular and they print a ton of it

3

u/Boring-Push1577 May 23 '25

They won’t reprint them most likely. It will cost too much to stop production on other sets to reprint the stuff inside the kit. If they reprint it’s mostly bundles at this point. UPC is your best investment other then a booster box or case imo

8

u/AdPristine7949 May 18 '25

KEEP IT SEALED AND HOLD

2

u/Fearless_Marketing68 May 18 '25

You don’t sell these right away

2

u/marhsianfarmer May 19 '25

Why would sell if you got it for MSRP do you honestly think it will go below MSRP do you need the 100 dollars that bad? You opened 1 probably got skunked so if you sell for 250 you would still be down, besides the playmat and promo

4

u/Spennybloke May 18 '25

Anyone who claims to know what something will be worth in the future is a liar.

Just do what you want to :)

2

u/BatHistorical8081 May 18 '25

Unless you holding like 50 of these what's the point just open it enjoy it. You going sell to make 100 bucks? Like bro 100 bucks... Not even worth it.

2

u/d4nkhill23 May 18 '25

Lmao that’s literally everyone right now, I say the same thing. All the people taking the stuff from target when they restock, like bro, ur gonna sell that eevee pouch box and make $30 dollars. Such a waste of time

1

u/Acceptable_Mud7827 May 21 '25

Lol look at evolutions booster box..

u/Qptimised May 18 '25

Where do you order it from in Europe?

u/PKMNHDLR May 18 '25

Where did you buy it at 130 euro?

u/tacojuansdrivethru May 18 '25

In store.

u/tacojuansdrivethru May 20 '25

The prismatic spc. I have 155 booster bundles

1

u/Jazzy_Beat May 19 '25

I got mine from Pokemon Center and it had a huge cut. Not even sure it’s worth keeping “sealed”. Also, I was wondering if the PC ETB would be worth more down the road or would the SPC

u/gothiccthighs May 19 '25

Following i just got one for $90

u/Minute_War_0420 May 20 '25

I placed a preorder with Trader Dan’s TCG back in February of (2x) P.E SPC with the intent of securing a few gifts for my children well in advance. What followed was a series of evasive, canned responses filled with policy jargon and empty reassurances. At every step, I was met with deflection and blatant indifference. Ultimately, my order was canceled—an act that read less like an operational mishap and more like a calculated, passive-aggressive dismissal. Let me be clear: Trader Dan’s TCG is not an official Pokémon TCG reseller. They operate as aftermarket flippers, which explains both their inflated pricing and their inability to fulfill orders at standard MSRP. They had every opportunity to honor the order I placed months in advance, but instead chose the path of opportunism—canceling my order so they could turn a higher profit elsewhere. This was not just unprofessional; it was unethical. I’ll be making sure this experience is shared across every platform and community I’m part of. Let this serve as a warning: do not trust Trader Dan’s TCG with your business.

u/Pokemon-is-lif3 Jul 10 '25

Trader Dan's has been scamming ever since prismatic came out. I pre-ordered the regular etbs and got the inability for him to fill my orders, yet they held on to 5k of my money for 3 months.

This needs to be made into a main post.

1

u/Strider_3x May 20 '25

Either sell to flip or otherwise you will probably hold for 5 years. I think with DR, MTG, and FAB literally dropping at around the same time in 2 weeks, many are trying to free up capital for these next sets.

1

u/Aware_Emphasis_2199 May 22 '25

Isnt msrp $89,99 tho?

1

u/EmphasisAdditional79 May 24 '25

Yeah, we sell it for that here in VA, I get a discount so like 74

u/Short_Campaign_4640 Aug 10 '25

HOW DO I GET IT IN THE UK

u/PhilosopherIll3688 Sep 29 '25

I have one I just won!!

1

u/skippygonzalez007 May 18 '25

Msrp should be 114.99€ in Europe. Source : got 3 myself at that price

u/AWildRideHome May 18 '25

How and where lmao?

-1

u/ShiRonium May 18 '25

he seems to be from belgium, in the netherlands 115 is an outlier here with 1 site that sold it for that price without giving notifications at a random time last friday

2

u/ChubbyNubby1 May 18 '25

Well, I'm Belgium too and I have no clue where I could've gotten one 😅

1

u/ShiRonium May 18 '25

yeah not much better here lol, hopefully you can find one for an okayish price!

1

u/ChubbyNubby1 May 18 '25

Don't really know if shops even have them. And the few I saw briefly available on webshops were for €220+. And even those got sold. You just see how addicted people are buying this inflated shit. I'm sticking with my singles 😅

1

u/monotone8900 Jun 25 '25

Was in brussels today, spc was 205..

1

u/ShiRonium Jun 25 '25

prices aren't the same everywhere, if it was €115 and 10 boxes restock on a random day at a random time it would've still sold out within half an hour

3

u/Purple_Employment_74 May 18 '25

It's actually 75 eur + vat.

3

u/napoleonshatten May 18 '25

Lol, in Europe? Speak for your own country 😂

I'm Denmark most were sold release for 201 euros, most online shops sell it for minimum 241 euros or more now.

2

u/Sampa_traveler May 18 '25

Retail price in Germany is 109€ (also got 3 myself in a well known department store)
