She’s gone.
Know of one more box “on the market”, guy keeps raising his price everytime you come close to his price tho. Lol
“ I want $225,000”… okay let’s get the deal done… “ I have offers for $250,000” lol … those who are dealing with him, will know what I mean
1st ed fossil went for about 11k on ebay. This is nuts!
It sold for 11k?
Sorry it sold for 11.9k actually and it looks 100% legit to me. Buyer has over 100 feedback. Just search sold listings
And just like that Fossil has overtaken 1st Edition Team Rocket to tie with Jungle ~
A base unlimited box supposedly “sold” for 50k yesterday.
I seriously doubt there was an actual sale, considering there are multiple others available for far cheaper prices. It looks like the same seller has it listed again. Are they just trying to artificially drive the price up?
Yes Jungle will be around 14k next sale and TR will move up above 12k next sale too I’m sure.
I just sold a fossil box for 14K on ebay. Buyer told me he saw Logan Paul box break and wanted in on Pokemon.
Ya I saw that but was wondering why it is still listed with your other 3 boxes for 95k as it seems like from the 4 WOTC logos on the plastic that it’s the same box. I may be wrong though
You are right, I just haven’t removed that combined listing yet
Gotcha that’s wild though man!
Now the question is how much of a premium would Base 2000/4th Print and Shadowless boxes command in conjunction to that of the $20k Base Unlimited variety?
Those are much more niche and less likely to be targeted by new members of the hobby so their price movement won’t be the same as unlimited base. Their rarity gives the seller much more power over the buyer though.
Another new price break to report. $25K all cash deal for a base set booster box.
JFC. That’s nuts. The price movement of Unlimited Base has been stunning. I remember people on this forum being shocked that Base boxes hit $10k – and that was like two months ago lol.
It’s also just crazy when you consider how little other boxes have moved. I sold my Ruby Sapphire box for $4k roughly a year ago. At that time, Unlimited Base boxes were worth roughly the same amount. So that’s a snapshot in time from a year ago – both boxes were worth about the same. Now consider what’s the reality right now: a Ruby Sapphire box is worth $7k and a Base Unlimited box is worth…$25k? People can say all that they want about how Base boxes were underpriced, underappreciated, etc. That doesn’t change the clear fact that its value is, at present time, being propped up by speculative demand. That’s not to say that it can’t go up even more. And it’s also not to say that it will go down. But it is to say that the $25k price point is inflated (and may always be) by speculative demand.
Is it propped up by speculative demand or the fact that it’s inherently tied to 1st edition base set? I don’t think we can view both boxes in silos.
I agree that we can’t view the boxes as fully separate. But it was inherently tied to 1st Edition Base Set last October also. That hasn’t changed. 1st Ed. Base Boxes were like ~$75k last October? So, last October, the price ratio 1st Ed. vs. Unlimited was 19:1 ($75k to $4k). Now the price ratio is 8:1 ($200k to $25k). So the relative price difference has also decreased significantly.
Thats true but there comes a point that things start to accelerate due to fomo. Base unlimited is the last and cheapest shot that people have for base set.
3 pack blisters sold for 25k so a box should be closer to 300k rn, or at least is likely to get there once the current supply runs out
Think it’ll be like charizard when within a snap of fingers it’ll go up once a sale is done and fomo kicks in
