The Giant English Market Thread

So naturally that means what they said is invalid

@kingboo64 , I’ll reiterate what I said: if someone insults me personally, the conversation’s over. I have zero interest in internet food fights. I’ve explicitly made note of this on numerous occasions over the past 20+ months on this forum – it’s not some excuse I made up on the fly if that’s what you’re implying. Decorum is important to me. If it’s not to you, that’s fine – we just might not be ideal conversational partners.

I was expecting Alakazam lv.x psa 10 to end around 1.2k
very surprised that it sold for 2k. Then one from cardrush got sold 2k after Z&G auctions ends.

This still sitting at 1.3k and not sold yet.

The $1300 one looks like a poopy 10

Noob question from me: I pre-ordered a set of the Flareon, Jolteon, and Vaporeon VMax Premium collections from two different sellers. With the product having a release date on Dec 3 2021, does that mean those sellers were sent their product on that date from the distributor, or do they get it shipped earlier and then that is the first date they are allowed to sell/ship them by? Trying to gauge what is a reasonable time to expect the items to ship to me. Thanks!

I love this thought!

Here is the total amount of lv x. graded in 52 weeks (All D&P | excludeds platinum sets) : 10s

~660 : 27

Conclusion: More cards in the backlog = more 10s obviously. Negligible amount of 10s >> Negligible effect on market.

Harambe walks into a bar, asks the barman for some ice in a glass, nothing else.

Barman replies: Just ice for Harambe.

Pokemon Center now ships to the UK through a separate website! www.pokemoncenter.com/en-gb

There’s a chance that opting in to the UK Center (CENTRE!) website’s newsletter could be finally how we get Special Delivery Charizard released officially. Worth signing up just in case: club.pokemon.com/uk/pokemon-trainer-club/edit-profile/

I believe that’s usually the date their officially supposed to sell at but are able to receive the product sooner.

Thanks for the info, do you think I should be concerned that none of my pre-orders have shipped by now? I’m not sure what the norm is but I feel like this is approaching the outer limits of it. I’m also starting to see loose cards from these collections appearing on eBay so it looks like people have been getting their shipments

The Pokémon Center had supply last week, sold out within a few hours. I would request either a tracking number or a refund today. Gamestop isn’t getting product until January.

Thanks, I’ll start that process this week with my ebay sellers. I don’t mind waiting but I hate being ghosted. I just got communication back from Troll & Toad that they will not be releasing the product until January 7th so it looks like they might be behind on the release.

@lamplamp, if you are patient (I am chomping at the bit to get these 6 promos), the price of the singles as well as the boxes will go down. I bet you will be able to get the boxes within the next month at either Pokémon Center, Gamestop, or local Walmart for MSRP. Troll and Toad pre-order is double MSRP, that is a joke.

Ok who snagged this lottery listing

If you actually did get it congrats. I cannot fathom how someone can be so oblivious when listing a card of that value

Its currently en route, so hopefully it arrives as advertised.

yeah its pretty crazy. i think the seller got the price mixed up with a CGC rev holo 9 crystal char. a quick ebay sold search of CGC 9 skyridge charizard pulls up 3 listings, 2 of which are rev holos that sold for 1300 and 1400.

exactly what I was thinking, that’s surely what happened. Still crazy to me someone can make that mistake, like you send it in to get graded but don’t bother to do more then 10 seconds of research before listing it. Well enjoy your 4K+ discount. That is seriously the deal of a lifetime

can’t be real at this price?
