The NIGHTMARE That Is Prismatic Evolutions Pokemon Cards...

[@nsg0023]

@@Strictlybizznesss Not sure where you're getting that from. Target, Best Buy, Walmart all sold out within hours of going up. Intermittent restocks over the last few weeks, but also gone within ~10 minutes of restock.

[@rakurai4953]

I know the feeling. I would have loved to open a few more packs of Surging Sparks, but I can't really find it anywhere anymore

[@SuparNerd]

I think I only just realized how absurd that master set is. All ball variants? You doing some crazy things Danny!

[@Droluk_]

I do open packs with my kids, and that's where we get the most fun out of this hobby. When scalpers are playing this short game, they really suck the enjoyment out of it. The best thing everyone can do is ignore the FOMO, and when no one is paying the ridiculous prices, the scalpers lose.

[@ctrechter]

I just started getting back in to the collecting with my kids. I have binders of base set and jungle. I can't find any packs of the surging sparks and it's nuts. Won't pay the inflated prices. I've turned it into a game to find them, reminds me when base set first came out and you couldn't find any at first. Still dissapointing when a store gets some in and they are gone within an hour.

[@Poketeatime]

Unfortunately this is not going to happen sucks but it’s the reality

[@trentp1993]

I buy out the store completely when I find Evo skies and I can assure you I am no scalper. After hitting 1000 Walmarts with nothing it’s just the natural order of ripping progression

[@xhearte]

100% this. Luckily my wife and I had gotten to know the lady who stocked target up and ran into her before she stocked up... She sort of let us grab a couple 151 collections for the boys before Christmas. Right after one dude in and wiped the shelf out.

[@TropicalMint808]

​@@ctrechteryep its the same story twenty plus years later. I've converted much of my vintage singles to sealed modern for my kids but I'm passing the bangers to them slowly as they mature. have fun my guy, there's plenty of cards, I'm no scalper but I've got plenty of prismatic on preorder. if you're late, you're late and that's it🤙

[@Gachamonn]

Demand on this set is crazy, I just hope rhat Pokémon print enough product for everyone

[@ThiccShaxx]

Definitely taking a break from the hobby until we hear more about the trainer set/ rocket set. The perfect storm of scalpers, bots, “investors”, low supply, etc means that the only prismatic I’ll be opening is the PC etb’s I preordered.

[@fauxplants]

journey together/rocket set is already cooked. terastal festival (japanese prismatic) preorders were at msrp or even lower for a loooooong time before release. people were expecting another shiny treasure situation where it was overprinted and only a few good cards in the set (in this case masterball eevees in st's case the shiny SARs) but once the set came out and news dropped that masterball rates were nerfed and no longer guaranteed in boxes anymore, all hell broke loose. now boxes are $80 or more. the battle partners (journey together) set had its first preorder run on pokemon center japan with an exclusive iono promo for preordering just a few days ago. the queue to the ENTIRE SITE was for DAYS. limit one and still sold out within a few hours. everything is sold out. and that is just japan. we are approaching a covid level catastrophe with these year 3 sets and with the current state of the global economy becoming uncertain following the us election and potential tariffs. if the preorder debacle for BP was like that imagine the us... this next year is NOT going to be pretty!

[@ironman2885]

Scalpers exist because Pokemon allows them to. There has been several months that it was clear we had a major supply/demand problem on this set and Pokemon could *at the very least* make a public statement that they will print enough to meet demand, even if they can't print it in time for launch.

[@duponmic]

[@buffalobill9793]

I am a sealed collector and I'm sick and tired of people in the hobby frowning on me because I don't open my boxes. Even going as far as calling me a scalper. I don't come down on people buying 2 or three cases to rip to build their master set why are people ragging on me because I want to keep my 2 or three boxes sealed. Meanwhile all these people who have to collect every damn card are far more responsible for the product shortage than I am. Why are sealed collectors looked upon as bad guys in the hobby by rippers? I'm not so sure that scalpers are the problem here. I think the amount of people in the hobby that feel the need to have every card is the real problem combined with the amount of packs it now takes to pull every card is easily a bigger problem in the hobby than scalpers and most certainly sealed collectors and investors the other so called bad guys in the hobby. Maybe its time that rippers take a long look in the mirror. Honestly I believe it is the millions of rippers that are buying dozens of boxes each that are making it near impossible for me to find a couple sealed boxes to put on my shelf without getting shot for not ripping them. I don't know if it's jealousy because they don't have the willpower to keep boxes sealed or what it is exactly but there is alot of animosity towards sealed collectors from rippers and I'm getting sick of it. I don't care what you do with the boxes you purchase so why do ya all give a shit whether I open mine or not.

nothing more enjoyable than getting a great pull from that booster box, then looking at the print quality of the card and knowing there's no way you're going to get a psa10 👍

[@DiamondShotZZ]

If that is the only thing you think about if you pull a good card, you are a shame to the hobby.

[@gviper7]

@@DiamondShotZZ get off your high horse there bud, you have no clue about the totality of my experience when pulling cards. Don't even try and represent yourself as someone that doesn't think about that at all when ripping packs because you and I both know that isn't true. I don't expect a psa 10, but new cards shouldn't be trash prints either chief.

[@MoonduckPsy]

Have to agree here; if they’re going to charge through the nose for these things, the print quality should be uniform or should be caught in quality control before release. Easy to set up quality control scanners.

I primarily collect Japanese, but love Eeveelutions so I did pre-order 3 Prismatic Evolution ETBs from one of my favorite distributors in my country. They send out an email that the allocation was so small that they would be forced to cancel some orders. I instantly emailed them back and told them I was voluntarily cancelling 2 of my ETBs as I'm focussing on Terrestal Festival. They thanked me for my generosity. This way I ensured that I would get at least 1 ETB and thus get the promo for my Eevee binder, while also making sure that others get to enjoy this amazing set. If more people would accept a smaller amount of product at release, there will be more than enough for everyone to get a chance to enjoy the set at release. There will be more product coming, so people should just chill and allow everyone to enjoy this set. Especially the kids.

[@johnchan9392]

Despite upcoming sets will relieve demand pressures on Prismatic Evolutions, the problem is people who want but doesn’t have Prismatic Evolutions will also want those upcoming sets. They will always be one step behind and paying a premium. Investors on the other hand will be happy to be one step in front and buy Prismatic Evolutions when everybody had their fills and price comes down after reprints. Why? The Investors will know that once Prismatic Evolutions is nearing or out of print, everyone will want it again. Take a look at 151, CZ is following suit, look at all the 2nd half of SWSH, they are all skyrocketing now because it’s hard or expensive to buy Surging Sparks. Despite reprints will happen with Surging Sparks, it won’t go back down to MSRP. The demand is so high and every time PCI releases them, they will be gobbled up.

And then TPC doesn't want to repeat the same mistake of over-printing (Like Shining fates and Vivid) 151 to me is a just nice printed set of good quantity. It's been well over a year since it's release. People who missed out, well too bad for you.

[@markadaza9940]

Cool. It's been so hard to get the eeveelution set where I live.

[@pokert9401]

Wow. Thats some dedication to do the master set.

Happy New Year Danny! For sure, looking forward to pull a little from the festival set. Other than that it’s all singles from there.

I understand the frustration of not finding product and frankly I dont see how the Pokemon company missed the boat here. Their inability to forecast anywhere near remote to the demand is kind of puzzling to me. Prismatic is going to be crazier than 151 and probably by a mile. TPC should have been better prepared and they better get those printers fired back up soon ha ha

Let’s goo!!! With this release I’ve been excited to rip Pokemon packs again! Prismatic will be crazy!

i honestly wish also pokemon US would get rid of 80% of their gimmick boxes because no one actually wants them.. even as presents for kids they aren't worth it since it doesn even provide the kid with enough packs or barely any pokemon cards. They should overhaul on their booster boxes and bundles and sleeves packs and along side that promo boxes, 3 pack blisters, and the starter trainer boxes which gives somoene getting into the play scene enough of a base to build a deck and play a local leagues. They are wasting money and not to mention materials on all these small useless gimmick items that no one both store front, reseller, or consumer wants. And whoever is their "forecaaster" needs to be fired and they need to get someone who enjoys the hobby to tell them what to ramp printing production on because whoever it is does not have an idea at all on what the pokemon collectors on the hobby want at all.
