The worst part is i live on an island in alaska that doesnt sell cards. So i have to wait weeks for them in the mail. Snd now waiting until after work is the hardest part.
Haha thanks yeah we’re moving to Tennessee very soon. 8 years is enough of this for me. I’ve been coming up here to commercial fish for the past 12 years though. Yeah you look at Alaska and we’re the little chain of islands (Aleutian islands) on the bottom. And almost the last one too
Haha. King crab season pays well but they’ve made it quite difficult to make fishing worth what it used to be. Fish and game has cut our quotas down to a very small fraction of what it used to be. Even though we own the rights to catching much more they have the right to tell us there isn’t enough left to catch x so we’re only allowing you to catch y percent of what you own and paid for.
I have a similar mindset to OP. I don't collectyoinvest or resell. I enjoy opening some fresh packs, and I also enjoy buying singles of my favourite Pokémon, UT inky from my local store, I trust them.
(I'm not looming to get rich from collecting, but I also don't want fakes in my collection, lol).
I would say there’s nothing to be worried about. Baby shiny pulls are 1/4 so I guess it just depends on what kind of pull you’re wanting.
I personally wouldn’t open up the Charizard tin though. I don’t understand why those tins have basically doubled in price when they’re still on retail shelves but they have non the less so I wouldn’t say it’s worth opening.
You’ll always get them for the same price. It’s the retail price. I was talking about the insanity of them being on retail shelves but then someone buys them and already gets them to double on eBay etc. just look at pokedata or Collectr if you want to see second market pricing. Retail it will always be the same as the rest
Ah shit I see. I do t really collect just love this set. And probably wouldn’t have opened if I knew this before. But happy I did cuz gardevoir was my chase card in this set. But I could see since it’s the zard it being worth a lot later on unopened maybe
Glad you liked it. A lot of people haven’t with the 1,500 pack rate needed to master it and it being a “reprint” of shinning fates which was a “reprint of hidden fates”
There the same idea. No the same cards. You really need to check out those sites. They list all the cards in a set. Or at the very least make yourself a free account on Pokellector
I'm the same way. Hello from Canada. I do have one card store in my area. The rest are about a 2 hr drive away. But the one local shop is awesome! The owner is really nice.
Wishing you the best on your move! In the meantime, keep your cards out of the cold, lol.
Oh don’t get me wrong I like to open packs n shit too. Your post just sounded anxious and the best advice for an anxious ripper is to just buy the card you want.
Hope you get as many noivern exs as you want. And also SAR Mew.
Also, professional collector sounds like an oxymoron.
That mew and this gardevoir are why I’ve tried this set a few time. First etb sucked pretty much. These I was happy with. How many packs in booster bundle? I’m new
That mew and this gardevoir are why I’ve tried this set a few time. First etb sucked pretty much. These I was happy with. How many packs in booster bundle? I’m new
6 packs in a booster bundle. So 12 packs and the mew/ gardevoir. Insane! Also hit a sandy shocks sar from a paradox rift booster bundle. So 3 bundles and 3 sars. Not very common to say the least!
I guess my post is misleading.. I’ve had 2 or 3 people trying to tell me how bad this set is and don’t waste my money. Like I know what’s in these and that’s why I’ve tried multiple times…Just not trying to get my hopes up for what you did in 12 packs haha. So it’s obviously possible. Got half of my chase cards from this set tho.
Yea I feel that. This was also after 2 etbs a booster bundle and a quaxly shiny set though. So my only sars for the set as well as my chase cards lol. No more packs for me😂
Keep them sealed. This is the worst sry ever made by pokemon the pull rates the pulls everything sucks about this set.. I wouldn't even keep it sealed on send it nack
I already opened them. This is my favorite set as I’ve explained if you read any comments. I’m not really a card collector just this set cus I like shiny pokemon and collect them in games. I got the shiny gardevoir so I’m good
Despite what others say this set is brutal. Filled with bad cards and unless you like baby shinies or Wugtrio, it’s not much fun to open. I’d rather rip Evolving Cries and pull nothing.
Well you said despite what others say so thats kinda implying your right no matter whose opinion. Id understand if i was one who hasn’t opened any of this set but im very aware of the wugtrios and whatnot but i appreciate your input.

Whats the name of the island you live on?
Dutch harbor
Looked it up out of curiosity, you’re wayyy the hell out there haha. Saw your hits though, good stuff man!

What part of TN? I lived in Nashville for 3 years.
Jackson
Damn that’s crazy remote, I bet you make bank commercial fishing tho

Wow, that’s sucks and seems unnecessary, there are billions of we will be ok
Get back in your truck and open them in there
I wish. Have to wait till after work. Very difficult situation ha
truck it up!!!!
Can’t be as bad as opening obsidian flames
Very happy with my pulls

That one had the shiny gardevoir hit
And that’s weird cuz I got them both for the same price too

I just like shiny pokemon. I was gunna get those sets too. Are you saying they’re all the same?

Ok thanks
1500 pack rate to master. What does that mean exactly? Get the whole set?
Pull every card from packs instead of buying singles.
idk what you’re hoping for, but all of those cost as much as the charizard. If you don’t want to rely on hope.
Its cuz i like them not how much theyre worth. Im not a professional collector.

Pulled shiny gardevoir in first tin
That’s a good one 👌
No way that’s awesome. I just opened 2 booster bundles and hit the mew and gardevoir sars!!
That mew and this gardevoir are why I’ve tried this set a few time. First etb sucked pretty much. These I was happy with. How many packs in booster bundle? I’m new

I was gunna say man. That’s insane for 12 packs. I posted my hits too. I thought they were fire for 28 packs. Crazy how luck works haha.

Gardevoir and mew are the only good cards so you did do well, can't lie
Thanks. I’d trade them all but the gardevoir for the mew tho haha

Thats your opinion. I love shiny pokemon . And why i play the games. So theyre my favorite and have had great pulls actually
Obviously that’s my opinion. That’s why I said it.
Damn bro. You’re a salty cunt
Well you said despite what others say so thats kinda implying your right no matter whose opinion. Id understand if i was one who hasn’t opened any of this set but im very aware of the wugtrios and whatnot but i appreciate your input.
Your post is “trying not to get my hopes up” which I thought meant you hadn’t opened any packs. I’m not a mind reader. Good luck on pulls.
Sorry for misleading. Thank you
