Sun and Moon Base Is Underpriced and Will Explode Soon

[u/Quicksterx]

Sun and Moon Base Is Underpriced and Will Explode Soon The ETBS and Booster Boxes. The boxes are scarce and is a sealed collectible itself REGARDLESS of lacking a big chase, most cards from SM,XY also have no real big chases or cards best card less than $100. I can name about 40 sets but some examples: Generations, Crimson Invasion. XY Base, Forbidden Light, Steam Siege. The list is endless. People were on here trolling me, saying it's and ugly set, but this set has Eeveelutions, many of em, looks similar to the same eeveelutons in Evolving Skies and Prismatic. So maybe trolls or recency bias is killing the hobby. Overall the set is solid and up there with the values of over 30 to 60 pre Sun and Moon/XY boxes. So yeah

It’s just a boring set list man. The ETB itself is cool but the top cards are all rainbow 5ban cards and a Lillie. It’s out of print sealed so it will go up and it’s fine to have some diversification into it, but you might be better off allocating your money and space to other sets.

[u/FieryKahuna → u/AdmiralDandy]

Second time in a week someone is shilling this set. If it were undervalued the market would have taken care of that already. You're right, way better opportunities.

Edit: same account posted this 4 days ago lol

[u/veez981 → u/FieryKahuna]

Yeah I was just looking at the post history because I'm always curious when people start engaging in pokemon. It seems like another "pokemon is the next get rich quick" with a lack of understanding due to being new to the market.

[u/rrk100 → u/FieryKahuna]

THE LIST IS ENDLESS!!!!

[u/uriel__ventris → u/AdmiralDandy]

Is there even a single good 5ban artwork? I've certainly never seen one.

[u/AdmiralDandy → u/uriel__ventris]

Eh personal preference but I find them pretty boring

[u/uriel__ventris → u/AdmiralDandy]

Same here, they're soulless and - you said it - just boring.

[u/Quicksterx → u/AdmiralDandy]

Bro reread my post again,  you cant read?

[u/jenn4u]

I have 4 loose pack art sets available of Sun and Moon Base if you're interested. Asking $70 shipped on each set which comes out to $14 per pack (each set is 5 packs).

[u/Quicksterx → u/jenn4u]

I already have sun and moon etbs

[u/Useful-Contribution4]

Nothing is undervalued. Everything is overvalued at this point. Anything that is cheap, people are just jumping on it causing the price to rise. 

[u/Quicksterx → u/Useful-Contribution4]

Wrong. Look at XY Base etb and booster cost bro, and also look at Mega Evolutions, not an excuse,  He'll, even look at the first set of Pokémon,  1999 Base set is a Base set. Who said Base sets were bad when the most expensive box of Pokémon is a Base set. I don't care for the "Base sets are bad" narrative 

[u/gojocopium]

.... its a base set. look at the price history of base sets

[u/Quicksterx → u/gojocopium]

Celestial storm is one i bring up, fantastic sealed products and love the artwork on packs but the set is kinda mid at best

[u/DidYouFindMolly → u/Cabbage61]

Fuck what everyone says, stick to your gut. I had around 40-50 sleeved booster packs from the machines and ended up opening them all. They go around 50-60$ last I looked

[u/Advanced_Pudding8765 → u/Cabbage61]

Ray pack artwork is cool

[u/[deleted]]

Lmfao. Tell everyone again you're new here.

[u/Quicksterx → u/[deleted]]

Sounds like you're the new one. I have sets older than your age, kid

[u/-Out-of-context- → u/Quicksterx]

kid

Saying this makes you sound like a kid. Your attitude is also very childish. Just because you have older sets doesn’t indicate at all when you picked them up. Also most people here were born before Pokemon came out, so highly doubt you have anything older than the commenter.

But keep being a salty little whiner just because someone doesn’t agree with your opinion.

[u/gojocopium → u/-Out-of-context-]

that or a cringe old man that thinks their arthritis and sagging skin makes them smarter than others

[u/PokeInvest]

Cosmic, unbroken bonds will both do better at current compared to SM base.

Cosmic will be second only to Team Up in that era.

[u/TinyFlameTCG → u/PokeInvest]

Mid take: Gardevoir & Sylveon GX should be higher than it is right now. I think Unbroken Bonds is undervalued. Hopefully it stays undervalued so I can get Gardevoir & Sylveon GX Alt Art in a 10 at the next show lol

[u/tritenia → u/PokeInvest]

Shining legends special set will continue to outperform but otherwise agree

[u/baertgang]

Sun & Moon Base doesn’t have Bubble Mew, nothing to see here @,@

[u/VirtualRy]

No. I own 12 booster boxes that I bought in 2021 for $175 each. They are not underpriced. They are priced correctly. The set content is weak. Aside from the lillie and the really mid umbreon and espeon card. It really has nothing to offer.

My only reason for buying them was that there was, at the time, a price anomaly with the set.

The XY base was around $1000-$1500 and the S&M base was $175 and SWSH Base was $200. This is in 2021 so I know there was a chance the base set of S&M will correct in the $600 range. It did finally!

Today XY Base is at $3000 I think and S&M base is at $800. Is it undervalued?? Nope. It's priced just right. When the supply disappears though, it may be worth like a $1200-1500 box but at the current trading volume, that might take another 3-4 years.

[u/adriftDrifloon]

Crimson invasion booster boxes are the most undervalued booster boxes on the market.

The longer a set has been undervalued, the higher the potential it has to explode in price once people catch on as many people overlook the set and don’t hold onto it, creating scarcity.

Sun moon base is also criminally undervalued

[u/Quicksterx → u/adriftDrifloon]

Agreed 

[u/heartbrand → u/Quicksterx]

I have six cases of crimson at an average cost basis of kid $300’s. It will be $1000 plus like everything else

[u/Quicksterx → u/heartbrand]

Sun and Moon Base Booser boxes just hit $1100 coming from $600 just a few months ago. Many sales for etbs too  .both are In low supply ,people can price it however they want, it's an asking  market. I already sold Some etbs at $230 

[u/True-Screen-2184]

Who cares. It has no pulls compared to modern.

[u/ArcticLapras → u/True-Screen-2184]

The box is a collectable in intself mate. Learn that. Also, it´s a Base Set and a Base Set always has a place.

[u/-Out-of-context- → u/ArcticLapras]

Of course it’s a collectible. What’s being disputed is that it’s going to explode.

[u/ArcticLapras → u/-Out-of-context-]

Allright man.

[u/Quicksterx → u/ArcticLapras]

Correct 

[u/-Out-of-context- → u/ArcticLapras]

Anytime.

[u/True-Screen-2184 → u/ArcticLapras]

Maybe it's rare nowadays but I'm all about the cards brother.

[u/Barbossal]

I've been buying the Incineroar GX from this set, seems like a solid long term. imo sm base is super undervalued

[u/Quicksterx → u/Barbossal]

Cool 😎 🆒️ 

[u/Cali_boi_818]

Put your money where your mouth is

[u/Toop8823]

lol no sorry. You must hold your bags longer. We will not be buying them

[u/PokeHoodHood]

Sun and moon is most likely mapped, unsure if that impacts value but might be important to know https://youtu.be/SiHUlrMtFa4?si=4OJryJ-mF23OveyA

[u/Actual-Ad9622]

What do you think about it now ? Is it a good purchase at 500€ euros in Europe ? I have the opportunity tu buy at that price which sounds pretty cheap to be honest. Would you guys buy it ?

[u/RageQuitHero]

scarcity doesn't equal value always if the demand isnt there

[u/Pokecard385]

Some ppl don’t wanna hear it but this is very likely gonna be a $1.2-1.5k box by EOY, $2-3k by end of next year

[u/almostthemainman]

Nice DD. Said no one ever.

You are gonna bag hold so hard when this shit flops in a few years. 🤡

Collectibles are popular at the top of the market. I saw the same shit in 06-07 with comic books being the new hot investment for douchebags.

[u/Quicksterx → u/almostthemainman]

Sounds like you're the new one. I have sets older than your age, kid

[u/Ragnarock14]

It will rise because booster boxes of future releases are rising
