just from a collectors standpoint, get yourself a 151 poster collection. That poster is sick, the promos are nice, and you get 3 packs.
True
I pulled a charizard sir 2 weeks ago from a Walmart poster collection. Solid buy for sure
I honestly think we’re going to get a massive reprint, I’m assuming it won’t be on all products but this set is so strong moving into the future I’m not even worried. It’s shown overtime that sets after 2-3 years are prone to move in price so I’m not worried at all.
If we get that reprint, I’ll be getting in the game so I hope you’re right 🤞
I am in Oregon and we have vending machines loaded with 151. Costco also just stocked I bought a bunch 😂of
vending machines where?
I’m jealous 😭
I’m picking up booster bundles in Portland, Or. in supermarkets at the Pokémon centers. Card shops are selling them at outrageous prices.
I'm impressed with how expensive that Charizard has stayed. Thought it would've dropped more like the Celebrations one did.
Also yeah we had a Pokémon Centre restock in the UK. The PC ETB's and Bundles were back in stock for about a day. Other products have been pretty constant. Every time they run low a load more show up. It's getting eaten through fast though. Most demand I've seen since the few months when Evolving Skies and Celebrations came out.
I just wish the Japanese ones would come down in price here. £130 at the absolute cheapest. 😭😭
Mini tin displays are quality. Got some Celebrations and Crown Zenith ones but the 151 ones ran out fast unfortunately.
I’m genuinely considering getting into Japanese but the prices are insane still in Canada. Maybe if some stores get a restock they’ll come down a bit, but I doubt it.
I def think it’ll get a reprint. I’m going to see what prices are in May due to the Japanese reprint maybe people will drop their prices. I wish there was another 1-2 main Pokémon full arts like a gengar or gyarados or eevee :)
Agreed, I would have loved to see a Gyarados and I’m hoping we get one soon.
Also, check out PokeNE’s video on the 151 reprint. He seems rather convinced it won’t affect price much.
Got two ETB’s Ultra Premium Collection from Walmart for only $190, $89.99 each. Saw that exact deal that’s in this video with the booster bundles, there was no way I could pass up on that deal, was a smart move bc I looked and saw they raised the prices back up to $39.99 today. Walmart has been clutch to get these products at a really great price that are usually more on other sites, and 151 has been so much fun to collect!!
Yeah it’s probably the only time worth checking Walmart is for clearance or restocks of specialty products. A source is a source though
Dude, you’re clutch with the Walmart shoutout. I just bought 10 of those booster bundle. Great deal, it seems to already be adjusted to a price reflective of a reprint
Gotchu man. One easy thing to do is just bookmark the listing and check it daily. They’ve been restocked multiple times, I do the same thing with the Canadian Walmart site. Unfortunately, we don’t get the same amount of restocks it seems 😭
@@PokeProfit Definitely. I think I’ll cap out at 10 booster bundles for now unfortunately, as in the past few days I already bought a case of LO, 11 25th anniversary ETBs, and some other general EX boxes. I kinda went degenerate lol. Everything just seems so attractive to invest in right now.
A couple people said Walmart sent them single packs instead of bundles. I'll recieve my order of 4 today. Hopefully it's bundles not packs
@@wild1athletics let me know please! I receive mine tomorrow
@@wild1athletics Confirmed, its bundles! I just got it today.
I want to note how spotty the card quality has been. I got the zapros SIR and it came with some area on the head looking like someone scratched off the yellow color, such that you see the holographic base layer. Then when I looked at tcg player?m, someone was selling one with almost identical marks on it. I also pulled the dragonair IR and same thing at the HP points. Really disappointing :/ I was also super disappointed at the SIRs ( also have the blastoise) as they have like no texture, just some digi holo print. I never collected Japanese but I always hear how they are better quality and I will try to get a japanese SIR to see if it actually looks better. If it does, I might have to go with Japanese. Which is weird, because the texture on the sword and shield alt arts are magnificent.
Same with all of Scarlett and Violet. That's why there's only 500 ish PSA 10 Paldea Evolved Magikarp's and around 150 PSA 10 PE Tyranitar's. They're so hard to grade. I guess it makes these sets more investable but it's also a pain in the arse. 😂
@@monkey39128 smdh
I did grab some bundles, and a couple UPC,s. I bought them cheap. I have some Paldea Evolved.
Mostly focused on increasing my sword and shield position
All good ideas!
I have bought from gt collectibles no issue bought a 151 upc. Was kinda worried because other reviews. Just be-careful using them depending on products.
Good to know!
Walmart ones are not MSRP but it’s beretty damn close. msrp is 26.94 but only Best Buy sells it at MSRP, even target charges like 27 something.
Good point! I should have known that. But yeah, in essence it’s close enough to not matter long term. I think anything in that $27-30 range is a good buy on the bundles
@@PokeProfit agreed. Class enough to MSRP. Its just interesting that even the places that we expect to charge MSRP have varied prices.
Good video my Canadian friend. Thanks
Thank you. What are your thoughts on 151? Are you sitting on any?
I dont know if it’s a ridiculous price to pay.. my train of thought is that any popular set will rise up in value over time.. you know a lot of people want quick cash.. but in my thoughts.. 151 is an original set just like evolutions.. it will go up in value over time; but it won’t be anything like the hype.. Pokemon 151 will be a $500 set in 5 years.. but that’s it.. realistically.. who knows pokemon will continue to exist.. i kinda think pokemon 151 will never be a million dollar investment ever again.. old sets will always go up in value.. just like this one, but hoping for anything more than 10 grand is wishful thinking.. pokemon is a short term investment hoping for a long term one.. but if it is long term, then you will win nonetheless.. but expecting 1 mil.. is to good to be true.. $1000 is more realistic..
You should try Australia. We have even less choice than UK and USA.
Pure injustice you guys don’t have a PC.
You think 151 will be short printed in the USA , I’m thinking by Black Friday they will restock but question is how much are they willing to Saturate the market
I don’t think it’ll be short printed, I imagine a reprint is coming, or at least more restocks. I think a restock around that time is a good assumption as well, but only time will tell.
Are you sitting on any 151?
@@PokeProfit151 yes ,sitting on 15 upc I got with Tik Tok coupons , 8 ETBs , 17 Booster bundles ,60 2pack ex boxes from Costco
Tempted to open every day 😂
Haha that’s a lot. I’m sure it’ll work out well for you long term. Are you planning to DCA if there is a reprint?
This set will be printed into the ground...GT collectibles is MJ Holdings...they were selling the ES etbs that finally went out of stock a month ago that everyone thought was a scam 😂
I didn’t know that! Crazy. Is there a reason they are listing them under a different name and have zero feedback?
@@PokeProfit I'm assuming they can't use the distributor name since their selling as a 3rd party or something...wonder how many UPCs they got-that listing might be up for a long ass time lol
@@trangtrong3967Great comment man, thank you for the insight. Can I just ask: how did you end up finding out GT collectibles is MJ holdings?
If 151 gets printed like ES it won’t even matter the demand is insane. Over 1000 booster bundles sold in the past 24 hours just on Walmart alone. I bought all those ETBs for 40$ and there now 100 I’ll keep hoarding my cardboard gold. 151 is next
Loaded up on these ETB’s. Helped the rating wasn’t high and nobody trusted it. Sold two vaporeon haters at once TCG player for $110 each.
And yes, 151 into the ground. Black Friday and Christmas this is going to be all over the place.
The greatest Set the next 10 years. 🎉
That’s a bold claim 😳👀
@@PokeProfit no you will See it🙃why they made masterballs only in their language??such a special set and they made it Not in english?every pack has little hits💯🥳 no one knows at the beginning that there is one masterball inside a display. Great special idea. Nostalgy pokemon 151 with this masterball idea is puhhhhh and you have only in japanese this display is special tooo
Investment is crazy
What do you mean?
@@PokeProfit an “investment” is crazy
I still don’t understand. Are you saying investing in Pokémon is crazy?
