Through my connection in Japan, they just informed me Japanese 151 had a reprint. They are offering prices to ship for 18,000 yen. If you are in the market for 151, I would maybe wait till this reprint hits the mainstream and see where prices settle.
Yeah, this is great news. There are a handful of the masterball holos I want for species and artist binders but haven’t felt like paying the premium.
I think this set will have a large print run, but even then, it may struggle to meet demand. There is a lot of love for this set, and I think there likely will always be some premium on these cards over other contemporary releases.
Lol xD naw. A trend I have been seeing and that has exploded right after VMax climax came out is Japanese resellers via IG and Facebook. Where they buy from their local shops and resell to foreigners with a small upcharge. Usually these are the best competitive prices around. They are more reliable than some random guy from Buyee and have found myself buying from them time and time again.
It’s really not that many, 160 boxes in the photo. That’s roughly how many boxes you’d need to open to get one set of master balls (assuming no repeat hits)
Just checked several Japanese marketplaces I buy from, and yea sealed cases are still sitting at the same price they were a few weeks back. If there was another reprint, either the supply hasn’t fully trickled out yet, or the amount of new product is so small that it’s not impacting the secondary market at all.
