660 sets according to bulbapaedia. I don’t see them being offered for sale very often. Very hard to find in mint condition.

I have a sealed set. I’ve only seen about 5 sold on YJ! (one of which I bought) in the past few years. Jimmy used to have an opened, slightly used set listed on his site for $710, but it says it’s sold out now.

Yea that listing is what peaked my interests. Didn’t realize how valuable these cards were

They aren’t that valuable to be honest (nowhere near 710$ unsealed), if you wait a bit you can get a set under 400$ sealed me thinks.

I agree.

And sealed doesn’t necessarily mean the cards are mint. I know this from experience.

@bagoly14

Agreed. I have had multiple sealed cards come with impressions or fading.

I was so scared that would happen to the BW-P you helped me snag.

I opened one of those PLAY promo packs and two of the cards inside had dented corners. :\

Oh no

Wow fading in a sealed pack?? That’s nuts! I can see the indents if the pack was slightly abused. It is sad though that pack fresh cards don’t have a higher ratio of gem mint cards. I mean you’d think 98% of them should be gem mint out of the pack as long as the pack wasn’t abused.
