not to sure but I think when I buy mine I will get them already graded as I am picky about my collection I really like psa 10 the only time I won’t want a card in 10 is if it’s a trophy card especially older ones as they’re super hard to find in any condition
me personally have never seen either ungraded for sale and I’ve been back into the collecting for 4 years now but that doesn’t mean they’re not out here I’m sure there is quite a few still In japan put in binders never to see the light of day again?
That will be probably the only option at current situation. In practical terms it’s a small miracle if any sealed Espeon/Umbreon will surface for sale.
I am primarily an english collector but the espeon and umbreon have always caught my eye. There was a time when someone in australia was selling all 5 PSA 10 play eveelution gold stars for 4500 BIN. After ebirdman posted his this guy eventually bumped his up to 9-10k. That listing was up for several weeks too. Anyone who was looking for either of those cards missed that opportunity.
