I still have most of my first 3 gen star (rare) cards. I think I had all the hologram cards except for maybe Charizard. If you're missing one or two holographic cards, let me know I'll sell them to you for whatever you think is reasonable (no point holding onto the cards).

Good job! Though, you could get the set of 150 for less money (I'm actually tempted to buy it). Though I'll take a spare nine-tails if you get two. Mine has a scratch on it.

Thank you! I'm actually praying for a holographic Ninetales.

Thanks :) I hope I get some good cards.. and yes for the record, I did it for the nostalgia and for the personal achievement of having them :)


Achievement?

 

An achievement requires blood, sweat, tears. Not $440, well it might need that as well. I can't see how you will get anything from this, it won't be "your" collection, you just bought the lot in one go for a high price. You have done nothing except pay money, they represent nothing to you, you didn't even go to buy them physically...

 

Strange world.

You're gonna open it!!!!????
That like decreases the value by like 400 dollars.

i agree. unless you are drowning in money, it would be much smarter to not open it. In another decade, who knows how much you could sell that for. But then again, that wasn't your intention for buying it in the first place.

Holy shit. I have that Charizard!!! Worth $100? I'm selling that shit right now!!!!

I remember back when I played the Pokemon card game. I would win their cards, then rip them in half infront of them. Man, those were the days.

I would be more happy if someone donated $440 to charity instead of paying over the odds for a 36 pack of Pokemon cards, unopened or otherwise. Then making a thread on Vgchartz about it.

Not sure I follow the "depressing" comment.

Must be an empty life worshipping the ideology of hoarding and self indulgence.
