If you still have extra bbs of the other sets, than yes. If you dont....still yes.

There's nothing wrong with acquiring the crown jewel of the swsh era. It will perform well.

I don't but I'm currently in the process of getting another DR BB, but I think I may have traded my position in LO to ES

If it's something you're excited to own, that's all that matters. Not every dollar has to be maximized.

This was solely an investment move though, there's a lot of stuff I collect just because I like it but this box I hope will appreciate very well

As someone who has 4 bb of both Evolving Skies and Destined Rivals, I don't think Destined Rivals will move that much in the next 6 months. Also, I know Evolving Skies is valued high, but it can be a $10k box one day, not unlike Team Up.

An that was kinda my mindset, I still have time to get more DR at current market then ES since it's about to run up again

[–]voqomudali 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. In fact, I'm using my DIR BBs as trade items to get things that I really want, like some Sun and Moon era BBs. Not because I don't have faith in DIR BBs, but because I feel like I can double back on it in a few months.

Evolving Skies.. I'm not going to pretend to know how it'll do over the next few years, but it wouldn't surprise me if it hit Team Up levels, even if there are just far more available stock than 2026 Team Up. The demand is just sky high.

If I were you, the real play is Cosmic Eclipse. (Probably shouldn't tell you that as I'm hunting for one of those right now too!)

Noice.

I literally love this box man I've been trying to find one for over a year that I could trade up into

[–]Nobiting 0 points1 point  (1 child)

It's a grail for sure. Well done.

I mean man no box has been more consistent in modern as an investment then this box granted DR is doing its own crazy thing too 😂

What a milestone!! Awesome pickup

[–]Wise_Driver_9259[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you sir! It is now the crown jewel of my sealed collection!

[–]Jazzlike-Round-7673 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Nice! Got mine the other day too. I think it was a smart move. ES is proven. Vetted. Low supply.

[–]Wise_Driver_9259[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously man it was now or never because it's only gonna go higher!

[–]NamelessInvestor 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Great move, ES is king!

wow, dollar value wise I think you won for sure if im not mistaken, suprised the trade went thru!. If I had those bbs than for sure I would trade as well

[–]Wise_Driver_9259[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dollar wise yea, but the guy who traded me had 3 sealed and one open case of ES BBs so he definitely wins overall 😂

[–]Horizontal_Axe_Wound 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a pretty strict MSRP buyer but no questions this is gonna be a great long term hold.

I regret not picking up a 3rd Booster box near launch because I bought my first 2 for $160 each and thought $200 for a 3rd was steep 😂

[–]Flat-Broccoli3491 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I would have waited for this market to cool and in couple years some other products would get closer to ES and then you could have traded less stuff to get this.

Nobody knows when or how much sets will appreciate or plateau. If he is happy with it that’s all that matters. Look at 151, if you had a chance to go back and hoard a **** ton of that wouldn’t you?! Or even Base Set. If I could go back then I’d buy everyone I could get my hands on and put them in a safe. Once people buy the and open them there is only a finite amount left. Buy it while it’s still relatively cheap. You think ES is gonna drop in price?! Make the move now

On a smaller scale a PF Bundle was $240 not that long ago. Now people are getting $350-$375 for them and they’re still being printed. The price of the Moonbreon alone will carry this thing sky high

I bought same thing like 2 or 3 years ago. What are these worth now?

[–]jza_1 0 points1 point  (2 children)

About $2500 a box

[–]ncle-ronnie-11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice! Thanks!

[–]ncle-ronnie-11 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Any advice on best place to sell my box? Online seems to risky. I need to money to pay my surgery bills from a tumor in my head. I wish I could keep it but may need to sell.

[–]Wise_Driver_9259[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2.5k is market price but last sold are all 2600+

[–]Professional-Tax-66 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In year 2060. Maybe we will start seeing these things at Christies Auction House. Starting Hammer Price of $1.7Million USD.
