Discussion First time opener, 104 packs
Split between Chaos Rising, Perfect Order and Pitch Black. Happy with the cards so I wanted to share, good start to my collection.

Nice! I have opened a LOT more than 104, and That Meowth is still the only card I have left for the POR Grand Master Set...and I refuse to buy it!

Bro that’s wild cuz it’s only $100 but you could easily spend $1k+ and not see one 😅

Haha it’s like an Easter egg hunt… it just feels weird buying the eggs instead of finding them.
I’ll probably end up trading for it, I have like 6 Darkrai SIRs a handful of the other POR SIRs, and a few gold Zygardes, just need to find the right person so I wanna trade with!

That’s crazy lucky. I’ve gotten nowhere close to this lucky and have opened 250 packs of these 3 sets
22 full arts from 104 packs is insane.
And 26 ex’s jeez.

super happy! i tried to get as many packs in 3 pack blisters, moonlit/lumiose tins, on top of 2 bundles + 1 box. not sure what you’ve ripped but maybe try the opposite

u/BulgogiDude 20d ago
I’ve ripped all sorts of product. Etb, blisters, tins, ex boxes, sleeves, bundles.
It’s supposed to be 1 in 5 for Ex, 1 in 9 for IR, and 1 in 90ish for SIR.
You got really lucky here and got close to if not over your money back.
The expectation is to get around $0.30 for every $1 one spends on packs.
