Updated japanese vending and sealed starters

I am looking for updated reasonable prices for vending sheets(as I have looked through the forum and have found 2010 and 2015 dates on the vending sheets) nothing recent have i found. Also I have a question about sealed starter decks in japanese, I have taken a look at ebay and WOW i find it hard to believe anyone would pay $1000.00 for one still sealed. Are my eyes deceiving me or has things spun to these levels in my 20 year absence? I don’t trust Ebay stats at all. Any info you could provide would be greatly appreciated.

Your eyes do not deceive you. Prices have gone up, a lot. Unpeeled vending series 3 sheets (1-18) go for between 900-1100 USD now. You will not find lower prices, unfortunately.

Neo starter decks are also 400-500 USD.

surely the 900-1100 is for all 18 sheets right? so is 100 a sheet for single sheets appropriate? what about the original starters? I no longer have any sealed neo starter decks :frowning:

That’s right, 900-1100 is for all sheets, i.e, the full series.

It heavily depends on #3. The number #03 has two versions. One is from the 1st and much smaller print run of the Vending Series #03 Promotional cards. The Bill’s PC Card was only available in the 1st print run. It was not printed in the more common run that followed.

see below the two different versions

A japanese base starter deck was listed for $500 within the past 48hrs and sold in minutes. They are indeed being sold for more, although likely not for the thousands that many are listed at.
