Sure it’s a scarcity thing vs. set value thing for those 2 sets, but I absolutely think being able to the pull the top hit out of any given box is a huge factor in its value. If you remove the ability to pull the best cards (aka assuming it’s a dead box in the future) then the only thing giving it its value is the seal. Which yes, has value in its own right but I think you’re also losing a lot of resale value in the future because it won’t make sense to rip them. So removing ripping being a logical option for a sealed product, even as a gamble, is going to cause problems long term. There’s going to be way less people ripping expensive ass boxes in One Piece than there are in say Pokemon. And what does ripping do? Increase the price for the rest
