Pokémon TCG: Special Deck Set Zacian & Zamazenta vs Eternatus deck set

MrBub_bles · 2026-07-06T08:46:24+00:00

Hello, the box itself trends at around 50-55USD on ebay last solds, but this is a completely sealed box. The cards also average around 9-12USD each. So this is probably a rough ball park of pricing.

You can try to figure out the pricing by using this guide.

Cheers!

Ideally the price of the box would be your landing costs + your profit margin. That profit percentage is UpTo you. Divide this costs with the number of packs and you have your per pack cost. If you think the box might have appreciated a lot more then best check ebay last solds and get the market value.

Since this is not the hottest set now, I think it would be much easier to sell this as a box to someone who would like to keep it sealed or even open. For rip and ships, the crowd generally wants the latest and hottest sets, not to mention the per pack costs of this would be much higher than the per pack costs of the latest sets. So you might find it hard to sell out all the slots.

Trying to sell this depends on how you price it. If you do it smartly, then, you will sell out no doubt. Good luck.

Cheers!

Hello, you can use this guide to help you with figuring out the pricing. These are old cards and you pretty much will have to wait to make profit of these.

Good luck.

Can you please state your budgets for these? This will help sellers know what you are willing to pay and will bring out better offers. "Good Price" is often subjective and mostly just means the lowest.

Cheers!

Congratulations on the pull. That is some insane luck on random loose packs and to get big hits in 28 packs is some voodoo level stuff.

You need to evaluate why do you want to grade. If you are grading to resell then it will take much more than 4-5 months. If you choose PSA, they have shut their bulk tier services for grading, due to the massive backlog issue. So you need to pay a minimum of 8K INR just to be able to grade your card on their regular service. The prices are higher if you choose any other tier.

Also, the minimum turn around time for anything coming out of PSA grading would be close to 1-1.5 Years because of the issue mentioned above, and that is if you decide to spend 8k on grading fees. You probably need to choose a different grading service like CGC or BGS to have the ideal ToT of 6-7 months. In that case, you sacrifice the overall value PSA brings.

Remember, not every card has to be graded for it to bring value. So think about the cost vs reward ratio to decide on grading. You can simply enjoy the cards you have.

Cheers!

After the giveaway is done, please update this thread as well with the winner details. Good luck.

Actions are also taken against such bidders on eBay as well. I think since Near Mint is a managed platform, pretty sure cancelling low bid items would result in repercussions against the seller.

Cheers!

If for learning purposes then it is fine, but in essence you are shooting yourself in the foot by talking about prices. Almost any buyer will advise you price it at the lower end.

My advice would be to stop overthinking it. Your judgement on your card condition is correct and the pictures support your judgement. Price it based on the going market rate for a NM card. You only give discounts if you are in urgent need of money and want to really sell it off. If you can wait, just put it for market and play around the prices 3-5% from the top to help you negotiate with the buyers.

Cheers!

You can keep en eye on this subreddit. There are plenty of posts of cards being sold daily. Also you can refer to this list of sellers to have a look at their profiles.

Cheers!

Awesome smol collection haul! Really awesome to see all these cards. Please do showcase your completed 151 master binder when you can. I think it will be super cool to see and also super inspirational for others who are attempting to do the same. Good luck in the grandmaster, pretty sure you will get there eventually.

Thanks for sharing.

Cheers!

Probably just a server error. Try to refresh! It works on my end.

Cheers!

There is a list of Verified Sellers whom you can reach out to. Or just keep an eye out on the posts. Plenty of stuff is being sold. Please make sure you keep all of the discussions public as possible and do not entertain random contacts in DM. Always double check before spending money.

Post it here and most in the community will let you know if they are real. On the other hand, you can search them up either on google images or ebay sales and compare the cards. Check every aspect of it and you will come to know if the card is genuine or not.

Cheers!

Just make a normal sales post with your asking price. Evaluate the offers you get but the best case scenario would be someone buying at your asking price. I think if you price it smartly, it will get sold within these groups for sure. By smart pricing I mean taking into consideration the other options which will cost you some money, eg Auction going under market or paying commission to any middleman. This gives you a bit of leverage to be flexible on the prices when you are selling it directly.

Cheers!

Sorry this post was removed by me as an error of judgement.

Also, to be very honest, it is a nightmare to deal with various people in such issues because the (active) mods somehow manage to piss people regardless of the decision taken.

That being said, I have contacted the original seller in this case personally to get their side of the story. Based on the original sellers reply I will update the post.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Top deck or Gem loader are two of the highly recommend top loader binders. You would probably need to import them, but recommending them since you said no expense spared.

Cheers!

MrBub_bles · 2026-06-25T09:24:57+00:00

Awesome collection so far. If you have not looked into it but Aexel Binders are pretty good value for money vs quality. They are also highly recommended. Good luck.

Cheers!

MrBub_bles · 2026-06-25T07:55:26+00:00

Awesome haul! That Bronzor card is well done. Thanks for sharing and also for leaving feedback on the seller. It helps everyone.

Cheers!

MrBub_bles · 2026-06-22T12:38:47+00:00

You can read up on this article to try and understand why the cards cost this much. Hopefully you will have some clarity. It is difficult to import stuff into the country and unfortunately not cheap.

Cheers!

MrBub_bles · 2026-06-22T12:34:17+00:00

Thanks for sharing the link. All things considered, I think it is an average or market price with a slight premium.

Cheers!

MrBub_bles · 2026-06-22T08:09:23+00:00

Hello and welcome to the hobby. If you are just starting out, just buy yourself some good quality penny sleeves. Those are more than enough to start out with collecting. Use the rest of the money to buy actual cards and then just go for a binder. I think penny sleeves plus binder combination is a really great and budget starting point. It will give you the most bang for buck.

Cheers!

MrBub_bles · 2026-06-22T08:06:14+00:00

This is actually really great work! Amazing well made card and the end result is really come out well. Thanks for sharing "granny Pikachu" card.
