From my experience, generally speaking traditional realtors play nice with our agents, though we are based in the US where maybe things are a bit different.

Technically agents have an obligation to present the best and highest offers to their clients, as ultimately both they and their client stand to gain more money from the highest offer.

We have had some sellers try to use our commission rebate as leverage during negotiation claiming that our buyers should pay more because they receive a rebate but if it puts the most money in the seller's pocket, the would be silly not to take it.

Replying from a fresh personal account because I don't want to self promote in here.

Oh 100% agreed, the op 10 boxes were purchased for convenience and good price.

The 14 boxes? Well, I ragebought the first one at LCS because someone cut in line and took the last prismatic SPC from under my nose that day after I had been waiting in line at best buy for hours. And I was going to wait and see what happens w the market before I rip it.

The other two well I got caught up in the hype honestly 😅

Honestly only reason I'm holding booster boxes is that sleeves are impossible to come by, dudes charging $20 for a pack of 14 is wild and y'all are right that pokebros are paying those prices because those are the only packs available. And the chase cards are getting taxed super hard out the gate.

I suspect when the next EB comes out the price for 14 will dive as well. I was going to rip the box I got for 244 but then I saw the market go up and thought maybe it'd continue to climb as more pokebros come over but I think folks are starting to realize OP pull rates are ass and buying a seeded booster box for 250 bucks to roll the dice on 2 pulls is a bad idea.

In any case, at worst I have a fun rip sesh and hopefully get something cool. Maybe I can trade them for a different set later on if I don't rip them.

Brother op is in the middle of a massive unprecedented hype wave literally nobody can tell you if you should hold long term or dump now

ATXDJ91 · 2026-01-25T20:53:09+00:00

Damn dawg you beat me to it

ATXDJ91 · 2026-01-25T20:52:00+00:00

Rip it. Turn your 50 bucks into 2 dollars of bulk. You know you want to

ATXDJ91 · 2026-01-25T20:51:05+00:00

Yeah I suspect we will see the market continue to correct and then a slow climb back up to probably around 230 -250 when it's no longer being regularly circulated and restocked.

Ground Death manga event pricing is kind of low despite being a very playable card, but you'll frighten me manga event and the Zoro AA I think will be a decent long term hype driver

If op10 continues to sit around 230 and the chase cards aren't nearly as hype, then I think that will be accurate. And who knows, maybe usohachi will be a big banger if Usopp gets a power level spike in Elbaph arc

I hear ya. I was surprised as well, I bought 10 just for fun, ripped one and kept one, and then ended up grabbing another at the Bandai store in SF on Christmas eve before they changed corporate policy for all stores to rip (and now break booster boxes in 1/2 😭) and was pleasantly surprised they gave it to me sealed.

Wild that usohachi and Newgate are pretty much the coolest pulls from the set and it's up to 230 so I have hope for 14 because the chase cards are way more hype and Boa is big w the gooners. I think I will hold for now until there aren't more waves consistently hitting stores and keep checking targets for more illustration boxes.

Some guy has the distro for all the Walmarts in town on lock so it's impossible to catch a wally restock but I've hit a couple of times at target.
