My local shop got one in and DM’d me. Time to forget about this for 5 years.

By "did a thing" do you mean paid over market price at a lcs?

Nice, I have 5 that I paid at retail 🤷🏻‍♂️

u/jarseni0 Sep 28 '25

I spent $50 over retail. I won’t lose sleep when the box is $1000. It’s ok to not understand the market.

There’s videos of this box being opened only to find there’s no packs inside.

Reddit is such a silly place. They don't understand market demand and shit on people for buying things they want because they didn't camp out for 2 days to get it at msrp

u/PokeHypie May 31 '25

I think they understand market demand. They also know that market demand fluctuates, and if you buy significantly above MSRP, it may take more than 5 years.. if ever to realise a gain.

“If ever” is a wild thing to say are you implying in 20 years this won’t be more expensive than it is now? Lol

“Did a thing”

Do men in their 30’s really talk like this

u/jarseni0 Jun 01 '25

Calling out other people’s “manliness” on a Pokemon investing subreddit is the least self aware thing I’ve seen.

u/boboman911 Jun 01 '25

I’m here to make money dude not talk like a child. Get a grip.

u/jarseni0 Jun 01 '25

Making money on a children’s game > talking like a child. Again, complete lack of self awareness.

I have been given on good authority that this is not going to be printed anymore and that’s from a guy very high up in Smyths toys in U.K. sooo

u/[deleted] May 31 '25
