too good to be true?

Bought this but it seems to good to be true. Seller is from Japan and the description just says “pokemon card”

Also the seller has also re-listed another one…

Seller has good feedback and looks to be selling a variety of toys. Its possible that a seller from Japan isn’t up to date on prices regarding English product.

The picture of the relisted one is identical, which seems a bit sketchy. Maybe he just doesn’t want to take a photo of his other decks, though. Seller looks legitimate. Tough to say.

Been seeing a few of those on the Japanese market for good prices.

Wow what are starter decks worth now a days? Looks like some sell for $90 while others over $500… is $166 really a too good to be true price?

For english brushfire, definitely.

Coming from Japan I’ll post a picture of what the seller sends me… Bought on credit card via Paypal so hoping to have some buyer protection on it :grin:

one of my many risky purchases this week… Normally really cautious on ebay

Jesus. I am seriously out of date with theme deck prices.

Turns out this is my best ever eBay purchase ever :grin:

Ninetales has got a mark on it but can’t expect perfection when they have been sealed for 20 years but over the moon :grin:

Congrats!

Congrats, that was a steal. Just an FYI if you don’t know, the Ninetales will be heavily stained from the plastic and PSA stopped grading them ST a while back, just giving them 5s and 6s.

Congrats! Just to echo that, Ninetales isn’t necessarily 100% damaged, but pretty high chance.

Holy cow. Congrats, that’s a massive win! Really hard to find such gem deals these days!

Congrats, that was an amazing find. :blush:

Thanks all! @joetehman, your right some pretty savage strains when looking at the card in a certain light but got 59 shadowless cards near mint to mint which I’m over the moon with.

Wow, that’s incredible! Not only a fraction of what they are selling for but shadowless as well?! Looks like the risk paid off!

Can you take some photos of the back and bottom of the boxes for me? I want to verify what I can for my deck collection.

Sure!


The cards were also at the top of the box if that helps :blush:

@danetime,Thanks, now it makes me curious about mine that’s sealed… oh well, no sense in opening it at this point. Again, congrats on the awesome find!
