Interesting little occurrence today, Ascended Heroes booster bundles dropped on Pokémon Centre and stayed in stock for a couple of hours. I THINK there was a very brief period around 2:20pm EST where you could go onto the site with no waiting room at all and just buy the product (I heard this from a chat I’m in, but saw for myself stuff was still in stock with only an 8 minute waiting room a little before that).
If this is the case, then I believe it would be the first time that has been possible since Prismatic pre-orders a year ago.
Possibly a slight glimmer of healthier modern availability.
