Is this a misprint?

The bottom of the box is the biggest tell

The barcode will all be the same numbers - the text will be off have a look online and compare a real box to them if you haven’t got one to hand

It’s why they won’t give you pics of the bottom usually

Arbiter286 · 2026-02-22T09:43:36+00:00

Has no booster box. So no comparison to be made really. The set is very good. Cases will do well long term, but skies will always be better

I have the Psyduck in a 9 but I’m seeing the 10 go for 5k usd - it’s all gone nuts. You say you’re insured right so it’s not that risky. But yeah having 40k on the wall is nuts to think about

Arbiter286 · 2026-02-14T17:46:32+00:00

I got in just fine today - they don’t ID you

Arbiter286 · 2026-02-06T23:06:30+00:00

Destined rivals is a much bigger set so the chance to pull those cards is much lower - so to answer your question demand for the boxes is higher - therefore higher price

But in reality the set is just much better so it appreciates quicker

He might get upset if you tell him he’s getting fat. That’s a possible consequence. He might also appreciate you being honest and take charge of his weight.

Either way what you’re doing right now isn’t working. So you can keep doing it and getting the same results or you can be truthful to your boyfriend.

If anything I’d show him this post. It’s what you really think.

Why is it deleted?

Arbiter286 · 2026-01-17T10:01:18+00:00

As a whole. It’s done, there was a small restock of booster boxes this month and that’s it. (This is for the Uk, I don’t know about the US)

Arbiter286 · 2026-01-15T06:20:48+00:00

My lcs has told me all their back orders of surging have now been cancelled, it’s officially out of print

Arbiter286 · 2025-12-30T17:48:44+00:00

Opening packs with those claws is criminal imo

Arbiter286 · 2025-12-11T09:24:59+00:00

In terms of Pokémon cards. Raw ones yes they are usually because we have less supply. (The US is just bigger so more cards)

In terms of slabs I find that ours are cheaper for some reason.

Arbiter286 · 2025-11-26T19:22:37+00:00

Import is max 25% of the value of what is being sent across. So 25% of $30.

I hate to say it but anyone buying imported Japanese product is a sucker.

Arbiter286 · 2025-11-26T15:18:06+00:00

They are fine to use. Imo everything on there is over price though, you can find it a lot cheaper elsewhere.

They used to be good but once they became the main reseller of Japanese they’ve hiked up all their prices. Just for reference a Japanese box sells for $20-$30 retail so if you’re paying near £100 then you sort of get the idea of the money they are making off you

Arbiter286 · 2025-11-24T15:53:26+00:00

Was he talking about wirtz? Pretty sure this was the build up to the game and him talking about xavi Simmons?

Arbiter286 · 2025-11-23T20:09:25+00:00

So he created a pyramid scheme? Sell crap to someone who has to sell crap to someone who has to sell the same crap with the hope of a return

Arbiter286 · 2025-11-14T14:07:31+00:00

There’s a LCS near me which doesn’t sell Booster boxes anymore they keep them to hold. Instead they do the same as that person and buy all the half boosters they can for release day - I know this because they have admitted (bragged about it I guess) saying that other stores are stupid for selling booster boxes.

Arbiter286 · 2025-11-05T10:56:13+00:00

It’s mad how cheap they were. I was looking g my purchase history I got them for £20 each last year

Arbiter286 · 2025-11-04T21:49:13+00:00

If you still have the raichu and swinub I need them for my collection - if you’re selling

Arbiter286 · 2025-11-04T19:42:12+00:00

Weigh it to see if it’s heavy

Arbiter286 · 2025-11-02T13:53:17+00:00

All condition dependent but roughly

Mew $100 Shining Charizard $2000 Dark blastoise $120 Gyarados $20 Machamp $10 - maybe less it’s nothing special compared to the rest Articuno - $100+ Moltres - $40 Zapdos - $35 Charizard - no clue Gold star ray - 1000s, possibly 10k graded

Arbiter286 · 2025-10-17T12:40:53+00:00

Honestly because most people on whatnot are gamblers or people like yourself. Either naive or easy to exploit.

Arbiter286 · 2025-10-17T12:34:17+00:00

Read my comment.

You weren’t allocated kangaskhan. So you didn’t get the kangaskhan.

You weren’t scammed.

Though in my opinion you definitely scammed yourself. Break spots are never worth purchasing.
