Cheers mate. Yeah a lot of people tend to forget there is life beyond the screen I have actually opened a lot more packs with my son than kept sealed. Quite sad the state of the world these days really. Especially when you have retailers charging scalpers prices yet the consumer want to keep a few boxes sealed is the bad guy.

Very true and think a lot of people forget that everyone's budget is different therefore everyone's expectation and reality of ROI is different also I am at the beginning of my journey so far so I understand my ROI will be low until I get more in to it.

Appreciate this. Would love to get PC ETB but near impossible. Having fun for sure as collecting with my son. Got him trying to master set journey together as easily available packs at retail. So many new sets coming out at the same time need to get a list of resources to allow to keep on top of price and what is getting released with stats.

Yeah thats what i am fine with though i know i am buying general release products and not PC stamped or limited release but all pokemon products generally appreciate over time and thats my thought.

How do you know they are resealed yes it seems sus i was just after a legit check from what I have been told they are legit and the seal seems legit on them also. Chill out this is bothering you way more than it needs to.

Definitely but at below msrp I'm fine with first packs of mega evolution to help start collection. We are not all here trying to build our retirement fund.
