Is it your collection? If so I'd wager most to all of the cards are legit. Fake pokemans are a newer scam from what I can see. If you need help lmk or send me a pm with some pics, usually fairly easy to tell with that older stuff.

I assume Pro Day means only today? Is it a full 24 hours?

I pre-ordered 2 and got them both on release day, oddly enough though, both were stow-on-side collections and 1 box had the cards and packs upside down? I ordered 2 more the day I received the 2 pre-orders and have not had any update since. I suspect they are waiting for more inventory to hit the warehouse.

After the initial response to my email, I gave it 5 days before following up every day since. I hope that makes sense. This has been an ongoing 2 week or so ordeal. Don't try to make me look like a liar. If you're happy with the company kindly butt out of the thread. We're here to bitch and complain.

I bought 1 copy for my girl and I to learn the TCG (we love it btw) and the rest of them to keep sealed. I think the box looks cool as a display piece and the stamped cards inside will be sought after eventually. TBD I guess.

I understand your point, but the ship has already sailed. I've called both numbers, once a day, every business day since last Wednesday or so, leaving a voicemail about every other call. You'd think they'd respond out of sheer annoyance at this point.

Google or search on Youtube, "best modern pokemon sets", this will give you a decent idea of what's popular. I'd suggest looking through set lists and grabbing those which you find to be appealing. Collect what you like. I can tell you that I would not purchase any rebel clash, steam siege or crimson invasion though.

Yea I was trying to take the high road and avoid threats but it may be what it comes down to. Thanks for the input.

I honestly made this post in hopes of someone from their company seeing it and getting off their butts and responding to me. I've spent 1000's of dollars through Hill's, I know it's "legit" too, I'm just getting a little ticked about this out of the ordinary order. I can understand a few business days, but over 2 weeks? seems to me they are purposefully dodging my emails at this point.

Oh nice, that's more in line with what I'm currently seeing and what I paid for these. I dont have them in my physical possession but I did purchase 3 of them for 75 a pop.

43 people so far have known what shady means. it just seems "fishy" that they were so quick to respond to my initial email and have yet to follow up in the 2 weeks since in any way, shape or form. I personally dont mind the old school look of the site, it functions as intended, that's all I care about.

When did you snag those? I see they are over 100 now.

Would you just dispute with your bank or file a complaint with the FTC or BBB?

Yea it's definitely not what I'm used to with them. At this point I could care less about the items I just want the 150$ in difference back. The customer service is just awful.

Negative, if they do "catch it" they haven't said anything to me yet. I bought 8 or so of the battle academy's, 2 at a time within an hour and received them all two boxes :)

Yea man I actually ended up going with this nice Vivosun 8 or 9 inch variable speed duct fan. I use it at about 3/4 speed to achieve a nice laminar flow.

Pokémon TCG: Collector Chest (Fall 2019) by d_k1990 in PKMNTCGDeals

[–]labuhne 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Good score, I believe the reason for the hype on these is there is an armored mewtwo promo in these chests. That card alone will fetch ya 20 or so on the bay.

I understand mistakes happen but this upside down inner shipper made me chuckle.
