I love the level headed approach to your videos. You can see your excitement but you don't go over the top. It's much appreciated when most other youtubers go buck wild about pretty much everything. Keep up the good work.
Thanks, I don't want to tear anyone down, and it's really just my personality to be more internalized and not get crazy, but I also got sick of the over-the-top displays after years of watching others do pack opening vids.
@@MrToco23 Wait, the math don't math...9 packs in a tin set for $30. You bought 12 sets which is 12x$30= $360. Comes out to $120 per set of 36 packs. How did you get it for $90??? Nice hit though...
One drawback in going with this route is that expected pulls from a whole booster box won’t be here, as these packs from the collection tins will be random. With ~90.00 per 36 packs is still a great price! Costco Canada doesn’t have these tins “yet”, as they just got the collector’s chest + pencil case for 39.99.
You're definitely introducing more variability here, over a booster box, but the price can't be beat. I imaging the packs are distributed similarly by set, but then they pull from the sets and fill the tins and they can get jumbled up for sure; and then they can get moved around in the store too.
That's a bummer, you can always take the item number to customer service and ask if they have them and if not , when they might get them. These might be done now though.
I just wanted to say me and my wife opened around 22 sleeved evolving skies booster and got nothing. Gave our son 8 sleeved and he gets 2 decent pulls, A nice Sylveon and a Cheap Espeon V. Still fun. Great video by the way.
This set is so hard, great that your son got the joy of getting some hits though! I've ripped a lot of ES too, and it's been difficult. I recently pulled the trigger on the Sylveon V and Glaceon V alt arts on ebay, cause I wanted them and the set is drying up and so difficult anyway.
@PokemonFamClub I just started collecting as a hobby myself about 3 months ago. I've enjoyed getting into it. I found 6 evolving skies etb's in walmart about a month ago, and that kick started the hobby even further. Now I'm collecting all unopened sleeved packs. But I will move to booster boxes eventually. Will keep watching the videos. And thanks for not having over the top reactions on everything single thing. It's been hard finding a pokemon youtube channel that isn't just shouting or over the top theatrical.
Recouping half your cost with your pulls is a win to me. Hope you and the fam are having a great time at the beach! Also hope you do vids for the remaining Fusion and Brilliant packs.
yeah theres a reason those guys had 2 walls full of costco stacking tins in that hotel opening tins. i wonder how they found so many of those there's none at my costcos the past month or two in washington. all scalped
They hit a lot of costcos around Vegas I belive, and Costco will let you buy the whole palet if you want. There are costcos all over, in places where people don't buy pokemon, or the stores don't display it in good spots. My store is a combo of both, they moved them to a back corner after not selling out during the first $7 off sale. I image other costcos are the same, since costco felt there was enough still around to mark them on sale a second time.
My Costco had these tins a couple weeks ago. Bought 4. Now they got replaced with the lunch boxes. Do you know if I can ask them in the store if they have them in the back ?
Yes, I have had luck calling local costcos and asking if they have an item in stock, once you get through to customer service, just give the item number. 1705564 I believe.
Thanks so much! They often have great deals on Pokemon, and it can get especially good if the product isn't moving and gets marked down. Plenty of other deals too, to justify the membership, but man, I spend too much when I walk in there.
you basically confirmed my suspicion that this set is mostly not worth pulling at this point. Bet the packs will be worth something some day though. Great video
Yes, singles is the way unless you get insanely lucky. I'm thinking about picking up some of the alts, cause I don't really see them going down at this point.
$90 per booster box worth of cards(36 packs). So 3 booster boxes, 1 Fusion Strike, 1 Brillant Stars and 1 Evolving Skies, each at $90. $270 total. 108 packs.
I've spent so much money on Costco Stacking Tins and I haven't gotten anything of value out of them. I'm talking after buying the 3 pack tins probably 2k worth of them. They are not good.
Agreed, I got very lucky thanks to that pull! I think I've only opened 1 actual ES booster box, and got lucky with the Umbreon V Alt Art. This was back when ES was actually around $100 a booster box.. ah, those were the days!
@@PokemonFamClub Really incredible, I saw you mentioned that in the video. For me not as lucky. I’ve pulled an alt Sylveon from Costco’s Ursifhu premium box. Otherwise been on a dry spell with Costco
I think it ended last week. I was the second time they were marked down $7 for a week. I imagine supply has to be very low at this point. I need to go see if my store still has any, but I think i'm done buying them.

3 booster boxes for $270 Is not bad at all!
Definitely!

The sets were marked down to $21.99, $263.88 for 12 sets, plus tax. Thanks!

Urghh yea saw these also... Canada sucks for product!! US best buy and target are on point!!!!

I didn't see these in stores sadly. I only saw them for 27 online

@@PokemonFamClub Ill start doing that lol ty
Realistically you could almost sell the evolving skies packs to pay off the whole set and get the other 2 "booster boxes" almost for free
Very true, I should have just spent all the cost on a few Alt Arts from ES 😪
Loving the epic opening mouth thumbnail!!!

Thanks, had a great time! Will do vids for the rest eventually, perhaps I'll do a poll about which set to do next.
Yes, please open all your packs. 👍🙂😂
Haha, thanks, i will!

@@PokemonFamClub thanks ! I also got the moonbreon out my second tin :)
I appreciate the vibe. Subscribed :)
What a great video, man. A costco juat opened up 5 miles from me. Can't wait to score deals like this.

Yes, singles is the way unless you get insanely lucky. I'm thinking about picking up some of the alts, cause I don't really see them going down at this point.
I'm confused...if they are $22 a piece and you've gotta buy 12 to get a booster box how is that under $90?
$90 per booster box worth of cards(36 packs). So 3 booster boxes, 1 Fusion Strike, 1 Brillant Stars and 1 Evolving Skies, each at $90. $270 total. 108 packs.
I'll have to pay more attention when i go into Costco. Thanks 👍😀
Always check the toy area 😀 and clearance section, never know...

One alt is pretty lucky, I’ve seen eve skies booster boxes with no alts i’m them

Costo pull rates seem to be the worst
I've gotten two alt arts from them, so as long as they're great deals, I won't abandon hope just yet!

28.99 in georgia

$35 for the tins at my Costco 😢
