After purchasing a Celebrations ETB for 65 and a Celebrations Pikachu figure set for 57, I went to the only local shop in town to confirm what someone else said. Both were available at the retail level.
Someone figured out that the booster box has 143 packs in it. There isn't a single booster box in this room. All of them are trainer boxes with ten four-pound weights. 5 10-card packs based on the lever trainer box you're purchasing and 5 10-card packs based on the lever trainer box you're purchasing Pokémon card starter sets $49.00 is the retail price. Do not purchase these exorbitantly priced boxes.
Due to the fact that these con artists buy all of the cards before the general public has a chance to buy them, products are scarce, allowing them to overcharge true Pokemon fans.
Scalpers are selling for $100, and Amazon is attempting to get $120 for it? It'd be better if it was out of stock than if I had to pay full price.

A little pricey for a $50 box that will be released in February 2021.
Purchases should be avoided. This is a huge con. All of the packs were clearly tampered with, and the only Lapras V foil I got in the entire box (pictures). There are no gilded cards or holos in this deck. There are no reverse holos in this deck, and there are no other good cards. I feel completely ripped off considering the price I paid.
Scalper!.
It's highway robbery to pay 140 dollars for an etb. It's estimated that they'll cost $50 each.
I knew because some packs were still partially open and one was missing the reverse holo card, and I didn't get any holos or shinies out of the ten packs. I was able to get 6 non-alcoholic beverages out of the bag. If you're into that, say hello to Yanmegas.
Definitely a puke scalper looking to profit off of a child's product's supply and demand.
I actually bought two, the first to see how badly I'd be ripped off because I knew it had been opened and resealed at some point. 100% open and resealed, but interestingly, the first box had a couple decent pulls and I had my doubts that it had been opened and resealed. My second box was a different story; two packs were identical to two packs from the first box, with the same exact holos and Vs. Some packs that were supposed to have guaranteed holos had none at all, while others had neither a holo nor a reverse holo. My guess is that they went through the first box and didn't find anything worth keeping, but the second box had a lot of really good hits, and they didn't bother replacing the cards with holos, instead sealing the hits with only the common pulls that come in every pack. So, unless you're giving it to a young child who is just getting into it, you won't be getting an unopened product!! All of them have been unlocked. However, there is a very small. . . extremely small. . . almost microscopic. . . chance that you will receive something. In all honesty, this is theft because the packs are supposed to be completely random and unopened. . . so you pay full price or more for a product, especially if you pay more. You should buy the product in its entirety, with all of its quirks. Imagine going to the store to buy groceries and having the employees stop you, take only what they want after you've paid for it, and you have no way of stopping them or getting your money back. Isn't it crazy? That's exactly what they're doing, except they're doing it before you buy it and aren't telling you about it. It's insane that Amazon would allow it. Anyway, I will never buy any Pokémon cards on Amazon or any other website again. I purchased four trainer boxes in total, two from this seller and two from another, and they were all stolen. If you're reading this, DO NOT BUY FOR ANYONE; however, if you're buying for a child aged 6 or younger, buying more than one is a mistake.
