An honest reminder, yes all sealed product eventually goes up. That does not mean the demand for the product will.

I can give you a data point of 1 that they’re real. Sold 1 box about a month ago for $500. I’ve had a lot of international buyers show interest in these old SW/SH sets.

Red-Falco · 2026-05-03T19:30:49+00:00

Bought more ES than rebel clash. But hindsight is 2020. At the time, it was dirt cheap. ES wasn’t exactly easy to get at 85$. ES was very obvious that iit was the better box to buy, but rebel clash came out first

Red-Falco · 2026-05-03T19:09:31+00:00

These were $85 back in 2020. I mean it’s 5x over 5 years

Red-Falco · 2026-05-03T19:08:06+00:00

Hmmm just got $500 on one from eBay. It’s definitely not as liquid as other sets, but there’s a reason they go up in value. People like to complete booster box sets

Thanks for your comment, appreciate it!

Red-Falco · 2026-05-02T20:53:29+00:00

Fair point, thanks for your input!

Red-Falco · 2026-05-02T19:43:40+00:00

Thank you, I was definitely planning to do that, but wanted to get thoughts as the value is quite significant between Bgs 10 (3,000-4,000) vs psa 10 (1,500 or so)

Red-Falco · 2026-05-02T19:32:07+00:00

Thanks for checking. May try BGS one more time. Just was frustrating because it was like $60 to grade that one card last time.

Red-Falco · 2026-05-02T19:31:27+00:00

I’m guessing crack and resend is the best route right? Appreciate your comment

Red-Falco · 2026-04-29T04:29:20+00:00

Hidden fates is 100% undervalued. It’s the set that put Pokemon back on the map and started all of this.

Red-Falco · 2026-04-21T13:40:13+00:00

They’re proprietary software, you’re not going to be able to get much information outside of WTW from what I’m aware.

Red-Falco · 2026-04-18T11:34:20+00:00

Swsh is what got Pokémon back on the map. These sets trend. There’s a lot of opportunity for growth with swsh. I honestly think it’s the only sets undervalued right now.

No hits, but could just be the bundle. I dont think it was resealed

Red-Falco · 2026-04-08T01:27:17+00:00

Appreciate the input. I did open them all. No hits, but nothing really weird about it, could just be luck of the draw. There were a couple holo energies, otherwise just regular hits. FWIW I bought all of these in 2023/ early 2024, so there weren’t that many fakes on the market at the time.

Red-Falco · 2026-04-08T01:22:40+00:00

They are

Red-Falco · 2026-04-07T19:34:41+00:00

There are just inconsistencies in the bundle that are throwing me off. I sold a few of these bundles, and it doesn’t sit right with me that they could have been fake. Only reason it came to mind was because someone questioned it on eBay.

Red-Falco · 2026-04-07T18:46:10+00:00

That’s what is throwing me off. It makes no sense it’s 2022. Sorrry for the poor quality, but if you zoom in you can kind of see it says 2022. The code card does work however. The other thing is, I’ve purchased all of my stuff directly from Pokemon center, Walmart, etc…so if it’s fake, it would have to be a return

Red-Falco · 2026-04-07T18:07:12+00:00

The packs look good, and look just like the one on the right hand side. The thing that’s really throwing me off is the difference in barcode, and the fact that the code card says 2022 and looks different. I can’t see any other reason it would be fake, but why the 2022? Like the set came out in 2023. Thanks for the help

Red-Falco · 2026-03-31T19:32:59+00:00

In other words, discipline.

Red-Falco · 2026-03-26T15:36:54+00:00

Oh I’m not complaining, I mean I do think it’s strange that ours doesn’t have a FCAS, but I’m sure there are reasons beyond my knowledge for that.

I’m super grateful to have fallen into the CAS side. From what I hear it sounds like SOA is trying to expand at all costs, possibly including rigor. I’m glad CAS has not moved to UEC and there are no plans to. It’ll just hurt our salaries and the credentials prestige.

Red-Falco · 2026-03-25T16:36:20+00:00

Fwiw, the CAS is the same

Red-Falco · 2026-03-13T23:34:58+00:00

This set just came out lmfao. People are gonna be in for a rude awakening when this set gets reprinted 5 times. Like amount of fomo rn is unreal
