This is the only set that i went hard on collecting after it got me back into collecting from childhood days. Not touching anything else until team rocket appears maybe few booster packs for the enjoyment of opening.
The exclusive ETB price is wild, considering its just two extra packs and a promo. No where near lines up with expected prices compared to other sealed products.
The Blastoise price chart was for moderately played. Tcgplayer loves to randomly change the condition it's displaying charting for. Hopefully they get that to stop glitching like that eventually.
This said speaks a lot to me because I'm under the whole nostalgia thing too two because I was around whenever Pokemon first came out and I collected all them ones. So now I had to get these ones. Unfortunately I don't have none of the illustration rims but I do have all the rest of the cards from the main part of the set and the holographic energies and I just got all those recently to complete what I wanted of the set
I got full master set within the first month of it being released. Bought s total of 10 etb's, 3 upc's, 1 alakazam box, 1 zapdos box, I binder box. Luckily I pulled a lot of the big hitters n used them to trade for few I was missing. Not opened any since.
I got the psa 10 of the trio for 400 before the craze. At that time people were calling 151 the next crown zenith and it was "so fun to rip"..... now its getting so scarce that fun is starting to get expensive lol
Could it be the reason the box sets are going up cause it’s getting closer to Christmas and folks are getting it for gifts? I’m still needing several to complete the master set but I unfortunately have a hard time spending more than like $25 for a single card so the odds of me ever getting a master set are super slim!
Personal opinion, but i think this set became so hot because this is the only S&V set that doesn't have just 1-3 cards that are unique from a collector standpoint. Just about every card is really awesome! Like for example, paldean fates had i think 4 cards from the illustration set that were just standout as collector cards.
100% agreed. Every SV set has had one or no chases, then the rest of the SAR slots have been given to the strangest pokemon. Like Surging sparks has durant... seriously?!?! Where is Flygon, or why isn't the ceruledge AR the SAR? They have to be doing this on purpose so not one single set goes way above the rest, like evo skies and team up did.
We had the pokemon competition in New orleans here a while back and i ended up trading my bulk rares for one of these totaling around 120$! Im so glad i snagged it!
I popped into the Pokécourt and pulled the full art wartortle from a random 151 pack (which would've been $22 trade in/cash). I decided to keep it and maybe grade it at some point
First sale of day one Chicago CAC was my psa 10 151 zard comped it that morning sticker 485$ sold 450$ Got back home Monday over 6 ebay sales for 600$ ++ what is happening 😳 🤔
@DrApplesauceTwo i shoulda done a coin flip 😆now I'm kicking myself but there's no way I would've known. I turned it because I know how fickle the market can be. I was in it for a lot less when it was cheaper. Sometimes you just gotta take it and run.
I still haven't completed my 151 master set and I hope the prices go down a little 😅 I think that the pokemon center etbs are so expensive because they would be first print wouldn't they? First print 151 had insane pull rates aswell as the overall price jump on 151. BUT! Look, they just reprinted a few swsh pokemoncntr etbs. So who knows! Maybe in near future sv pokemon center etbs will get reprints aswell! Hope you're having an awesome week! Keep up the amazing work
151 was the last set we bought and opened it was only a handful of packs ever since the new generation big change took little break in the hobby just blows my mind in some these prices
@@cyrax83 a live breaker I 100% trust said it on stream after a meeting she had with the distributor. I’d have to trawl through a 3-hr VOD to show you 😂
The Blastoise graph isn't odd...you're just not filtering for Near Mint cards so the graph was for Moderately Played cards, that's why they were under $40
But isnt weird that is happening in less than a week? Like yeah some things go up in price fast but is this even normal? Not that I'm complaining as my cards are going up in price but it feels like a lot lf hype behind it
Full set multiple singles of the top 20 cards and a few shelves full of sealed that won't see daylight for awhile. I told all my friends buy buy buy it's a no brainer
@bennybenben22 obviously everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I opened more 151 than any other set but I found crown zenith to be more fun to open.

Yep. I noticed that was happening after the fact. It was showing properly in the overview, but glitching on me when I clicked through
This was the first set that my wife and I actually completed! It’s still an awesome set-to this day!
Yes!
I like the way u showed the raw nm price and the psa 10 price some jump up crazy I didn't realize

I love opening 151 because every pack is fun to open even if you get no hits. The art for gen 1 is great and everyone loves nostalgia.
I need that 151 SunZard 🔥🔥

That’s a great pull, the full arts are worth some money!

Yep. Sunday night there were recorded sales of $600+ lol

the zard price u had up is lp if you change it to nm its 200+ raw

I think it will come down later for stabilization after this hype is over.

Join the club on not buying some to hold lol
I prefer the Japanese masterball set though. :)
A reprint has been 100% confirmed by the distributor in Australia, so it won't last long.
Really? Have a source or more info?
@@cyrax83 a live breaker I 100% trust said it on stream after a meeting she had with the distributor. I’d have to trawl through a 3-hr VOD to show you 😂
Yeah…..👍 because Australia sets the market…. 0 word of a reprint from any American source.
@cyrax83 so pretty much I know someone that knows someone that knows someone.
@@eo98338 Thanks for your input 😂
My thoughts are people don’t want greninja to be the top card of s/v so they want zardy to reign supreme again
The Blastoise graph isn't odd...you're just not filtering for Near Mint cards so the graph was for Moderately Played cards, that's why they were under $40
No, I’m doing it right, TCG players just been glitching out and auto filtering things randomly. You’re not wrong though.
I picked up the zard for under $100 on whatnot not too long ago
Nicely!
I enjoy 151, but gotten too expensive as of late.
But isnt weird that is happening in less than a week? Like yeah some things go up in price fast but is this even normal?

Nice
Kinda glad I completed my 151 master set now 😅
You’re right to be glad, they’re getting harder to complete.
Picked up a 151 etb pokemon center for 75$ a few months ago lol alos got 10 booster boxes for 25$ each lol
Booster pack bundle* lol
151 is GOATED
First is gay. I’m second.
What are you 12 years old? 😂
First
We are all very proud of you keep it up you will go places in life with this attitude
the way you talk, seems extremely over exaggerated, and makes me not want to watch something that comes off super duper extremely fake.
Cool. Then don’t watch? 😂🤷🏻♂️
Heaven forbid I be EXCITED ABOUT POKEMON
I think 151 is a very great set but I don't think it's fun to open the pull rates are horrendous
Compared to other sets. They are the best pull rates. Correlation does not equal correlation. Zoom out instead using personal biases.
@bennybenben22 obviously everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I opened more 151 than any other set but I found crown zenith to be more fun to open.
@@TeamRicez i wasn't talking about opinion. I was talking hard stats.
@@bennybenben22Crown Zenith is king!
I just think this is market manipulation at it's finest and all the products will drop in value shortly
So sick of hearing the words “mArKeT mAnIpUlAtIoN”. Super cringe.
Unless there’s another big restock, which is highly unlikely due to the age of the set, but not impossible, that won’t happen
@@zl8731it’s mega manipulated and ultra powerful scalpers lol
Pokemon should capitalize on this and reprint this set. For many of us, it’s not about the money, it’s about collecting the cards for our binders.
While I do agree, the set has been very easily readily available for close to retail for a very long time
The Sunzard is the new eras Moonbreon.
