FIRE SALE! Japanese 151 Pokemon Cards Are In The Dumpster

[@BWhaleTCG]

151 is why i got back into card collecting

[@lucaslindstrom]

Same😢

[@troyandabedsewntogether7812]

Same here brother and I'm talking 5 months ago. And the price continues to climb. If you can even find the product 😢

[@troyandabedsewntogether7812]

Me and my brother inlaw finally had a relapse and got back into collecting cards and it's been brutal. Its either 151...or you might pull a pokemon card that looks like a building, lawnmower or engine block. 😂

[@foreveroutdated5739]

Everyone needs to remember that Evolutions was mass over printed and stayed on shelves for years. Now it's $20-$30 a pack ... Think long term! Don't get caught in the short term noise.

[@Top_Loaded_JRGS77]

Evolutions is the best comparison to Japanese 151 but 151 is such a better set with more valuable chase cards so in the long run its gonna be something indeed.

[@GirthBrooks871]

$12-$16 but I get it

[@foreveroutdated5739]

Sleeved Boosters is what I was referring too.

[@KevinP-p7x]

"overprinted" in 2017 isnt the same as "overprinted" in 2024 The COVID boom happened in 2020, are you comparing data from before the boom to now? Massive flaw

[@Top_Loaded_JRGS77]

@@KevinP-p7x evolutions had its last reprint in 2019, 3 years and some months after it’s release. They reprinted right at the beginning of the boom

[@PokeProfitParady]

Not too hard to profit on current box prices. We saw almost $200 a box not too long ago, they wont print forever. We could see boxes get stupid in a few years.

[@Prozach24seven]

I love that the prices come down on these. Actually in my price range to pick up a couple boxes now.

[@Maxpefc8]

That’s why you buy loads now to rip and keep loads in storage in a year 151 will be worth well over $151

[@jay-easy311]

No doubt when it’s out of print it will be back at $250 a box eventually

[@andrewmahabir589]

not a year they just reprinted might even get a English one too with prices exploding in the English cards lately. But I give it 2-3 years for sure. Will it be scarVs eskies? Probably not with the rocket set, eevee set, and eventually new Megas in legends ZA. But lots to look forward too.

[@Maxpefc8]

@@andrewmahabir589 in a year 151 will be over $150 easy in 2-3 it will be over $300 when they stop printing and maybe this could be the last print who knows the price will steadily go up . And you can have more than one good set in a generation that explodes .

[@ZootScootBoogie]

I blame David

[@bradkohl99]

Nowhere around me has 151, let alone Japanese 151, so I haven’t opened any, and I refuse to pay for the insane shipping costs.

[@TobiasKryze]

Just found a sealed copy from ebay. Free shipping and 75 usd lol but I'm canadian so it came to 106 canadian dollars

[@kauta3329]

i love seeing 151 JP be so cheap

[@SJ-kz2ii]

151 for now is for ripping for fun , good price for some ripping and maybe value raw

[@JonesDrew72]

So glad these boxes fell in price hard. It was ridiculous how much everyone was charging at first.

[@andrewmccann4267]

151 got me back into card collecting and i was able to get my first booster box with a full art charizard ex for 90$. As a kid i always dreamed of being able to get a booster box but i could never afford it. Im glad that they went down in price so the regular guys could enjoy the cards

[@hortizzzzz]

The thing is Pokemon said they were going to print this set to the ground before it even came out. People paying $100+ for a $40 booster box because of FOMO is crazy. I still think this set will rebound and those Master Balls/Poke Balls will make it attractive to future collectors.

[@unclen2479]

Stocking up on these by the dozen. Best deal in pokemon history. This set & english version will be some of the best long term investments you could ever make.

[@emieloss7229]

That bad ape with " Oooooh no " cracked me up 🤣 Shout out to David

[@sIosha]

I'm happy to return to Pokemon for a moment to check out 151! I bought a couple UPCs, an ETB, and now two JP booster boxes are coming soon from Japan for under $65 each!

[@PackageTotal]

Everyone myself included buying these at CP for $50 a box. Fun to rip. My first box was Ekans masterball.... What to rip next for profitability... I would say try PoGo lol

[@CollectemCards]

mind sharing where I can them for $50 a box? Looking to get a case actually

[@PackageTotal]

@@CollectemCards I and a few others got them at Card Party 2.0. vender had a very good deal but $60 I think would be still good if you can find that

[@fbom94]

Crown Zenith would be a good one to try and see if you can open for profit while packs are relatively low still

[@arthurjohnson3055]

I’ve only opened 2 boxes of 151 and got lucky and pulled the Mewtwo masterball out of the second box.

[@apetits311]

I paid 139 before the reprint for two boxes. I thought I was brilliant. Now I'm not so sure. Lol

[@joelh90]

I opened 2 boxes today on my bday, and got the mew SAR, zapdos SAR and then flareon masterball lol. Talk about a sick day!

[@Chip-Machamp]

You know what!! Japanese 151 cardboard just hits different

[@alisatrent9705]

The Drowzee made me laugh so hard cause I was thinking, “Those can’t be the only psychic pokemon in 151.”

[@ROChilders]

it's getting dangerously close to Japanese retail which is $37ish. Fun to open with the guaranteed hits, but will cause anxiety to those holding for price to recover, will be a few years I bet.

[@MikMik2409]

That is a victory! You opened an error box. It is rare to have an SR and SAR in the same box. Most of the time there is only an SR or SAR. Nice pulls!

[@noobXd3stroyer]

Not even considered crashing, it’s just not scalped anymore. I’m glad to see it go down closer and closer to msrp. I’m hoping English follows its steps and mass prints. It’s too early to hold this stuff, I WANNA OPEN THESE FOR AFFORDABLE PRICES BOYYYYYY

[@MaiSakurajoestar]

Look, the price of this set should never have gone above $80 in the states, considering its constantly being reprinted. I’m all for sets drastically rising in value, but only after it’s not being printed anymore. Because that’s what makes sense.

[@DaHoneyBadgr]

During this time is the best time to stock on some boxes. Prices will rise again in a few years and could be flipped

[@theBranteiro]

I think it’s wild that it’s considered bad for the market when it reaches actual MSRP. The mark up for shipping it over here is just falling off.

[@dirtyjas86]

What website are you using to price your cards

[@PokeKrom]

Would love to see more Scarlet n Violet japanese openings. They’re dirt cheap and the early sets (clay burst, snow hazard, triple beat “Paldea evolved” sets) have the best art work in my opinion. Full of cool illustration rares. The boxes are like 40-55$ each and would be a nice change. Keep up the great videos! 🎉

[@PokéScotty]

I’m a newbie getting back into this hobby, Anyone know the site he was using for the prices? Looked cool and useful

[@wintoshi]

I think people forgot about Evolutions. Mass printed of the original 151 and it mooned. As long as people enjoy ripping it and the printers stop. It will increase.

[@B3L0NJ]

I am going after these sets Crown Zenith (Tina), Fusion Strike (Espeon), and Silver Tempest (Lugia)

[@SuperJeremiah86]

I got super lucky 8 boxes. Pikachu on first and Gengar in the 5th - masterball cards of course. Gengar art work is my favorite. Thought it was amazing since I saw the English holo!

[@justabean5869]

Crown zenith’s gallery has the gold cards and the mewtwo as HEAVY hitters, on top of that all the art rares look amazing, plus it has above average pull rates so it over all a good set to aim for profitability from.

[@archylappalainen2500]

Opening up the equivalent amount of packs of English 151 would be an interesting idea to see if it would do better or worse.

[@randallcopelan1398]

crown zenith for profitability? also what site are you using for pricing in the video?

[@joe.paxton]

Crown Zenith wouldn’t be a bad option to profit from. Just no booster boxes so maybe 2 ETBs?

[@holycitysilver5775]

You can find excellent deals on Japanese boxes all over right now because the Japanese Yen is so weak against the dollar right now.

[@dcsoda1]

Tough to argue against crown zenith. Pull rates and it’s still pretty available.

[@716lox]

What app are you using for the values?

[@leonardosantamarina9580]

Where are the best places to buy Japanese 151? I haven’t gotten one before and don’t know where to buy it! Can anyone help me out?

[@lilSchoen]

These are going for 50$ sealed at my local card shop in Japan.

[@andcch4717]

Bought 4 sealed at $50each , plan to hold them for 2yrs. Only expecting to maybe sell em for 120 when the time comes. Nothing major.

[@JimyCS]

Bought two 151 Japanese boxes and in both got an Erika’s Invitation 😂🔥🔥 The 2nd box was even ordered and opened later and I didn’t even know how to react when I saw the card again hahaa

[@JackZed-rb4wp]

At the moment, ripping a set without feeling like there is so much money on the line is a good feeling. I have no doubt this set will bounce back, but for now, I am not unhappy with it coming down in price so much.

[@bencoutoulakis5657]

What website are you using to check the prices??

[@02danhaz]

I got some for £50. Opened my first box and hit the zard and masterball was eevee. Im happy 👌🏼 buying as many boxes as i can. Its only going one way...

[@meekrat02]

not a bad box honestly for 151. the new team rocket or dragon set for pokemon prob the next best set to gather up after 151

[@TheIfarted]

I paid $200 for a box when they cirst came out, then i bought 2 boxes for $100 at my lgs, now i just bought 3 for $50 each.. this long term should do real well

[@pepibarone5969]

Yeah, I think it’s definitely a good investment to get them while they’re loading now and hang onto them for a bit can but I definitely see them going back up in price once they stop printing it

[@kmzano03]

Ripping packs is almost never profitable, but usually fun. I don't know, try Crown Zenith, that has decent pulls.

[@CountofMonteChristo]

Dude that birds sir is one of my favorites in the set. But the best part of Japanese 151 is that the MEW ISN’T A PROMO!!

[@lolp1656]

I suggest Crown Zenith, one of my favorite SWSH sets, still pretty affordable, and has a great hit rate. Think it's definitely possible

[@andhymuro4857]

I think you should try to be profitable in twilight, with two SIRs at over $100, 2 SIRs $50+ and some decently priced IR the chances are there

[@deblerge08]

Y'all should definitely try Obsidian Flames. Super hard to get some profit out of it in the Scarlet Violet era of cards.

[@Eclipse_Cards]

Love this set, Japanese quality is so much better and I love how affordable it is right now

[@90s_Pokemon_Collector]

The yen is at its lowest since the 1980s compared to the U.S. dollar. Perf time to buy some Japanese 151 or other sets of you have an international connection!

[@urbanjunglist91]

Tough to beat JP 151 for trying to be profitable but maybe something from S&V? TF has tough pull rates!

[@1001History]

Bro I spent ~$9,000 AUD on a master set, only for this reprint to be announced a few months later and every card has like halved in price.... I'm so mad.

[@marvelousmelo]

What website did you use to see the collection and prices like that?

[@ALBTrading]

I think paradox rift would be the easiest set to make your money back. The AR's in that set is going insane.

[@greggoryz10]

Paldea evolved profit next! Love Japanese 151 openings never get sick of them, tempted to actually buy a box only opened English Japanese looks way cleaner 🎉

[@B-radPT]

Glad I’m a gen2 guy, I didn’t get caught out with 151 but I do like the master balls tho I think you beat the spread of $70

[@beardedtrainer]

VSFL!! I think chilling reign would be a good one to try!

[@HansiRahl]

151 one always has good hits. Its possible to get your moneys worth if you open ETBs or boxes

[@kuya_elli]

where do you check the card prices can I have the link please thankyou!

[@Troutfisch1]

Got one for the sealed collection at less than $50, may have to get another one to rip for fun!

[@xtianZ5000]

I bought a case.. when it's cheap you buy it! this will be the last print for this 151.

[@Evans_Pokestop]

Pulling the SAR birds and also another SR with the full art trainer seems…uncommon. I thought you only got 1 of those per box

[@Evans_Pokestop]

@PokeVault8_USERNAME_5 to be completely honest, I don’t think I believe you.

[@TenaciousDanny]

Man, I still love 151 for the nostalgia! You should try crown zenith like rev did lol

[@ShortsTCG]

Great video 🙏 you can pick up 10 boxes here in Australia for $50 USD ea ($65~ Aussie) Getting crazy.

[@warrenlauren]

I just bought a Japanese 151 booster box for $40 and I was very happy about it :)

[@Turpen8or25]

I’m waiting to get a few booster boxes myself! Hard to be profitable in the current sets but how about some late Sun & Moon?!?! 😜

[@thomaskaravatakis8150]

For 65USD box is almost impossible to not make a profit out of it + its an amazing set to have as collection.

[@lucasfigueiredo5423]

I really enjoy this set, and while the price drop is devastating for many, I am slightly glad that I can rip these packs more often.

[@TMumblez]

When evolving skies reprinted, i heard quite a few people say that it was gonna become worthless. Nuff said

[@ProfessorD_18]

I say keep going on Japanese 151. I love the set. It’s fun to open and you’ll profit with these prices.

[@followtherabbit203]

Rebound already started, all sold comps are $91 to $108

[@UnusSedLeo-w5l]

151 Japan is amazing quality. Think, as is said, long term.

[@Jupitrpixie]

Not the Drowzee 😂 I'm patiently waiting for the prices to tank so I can stock up. They'll go through the roof again eventually. For now I need to fill my binder!

[@frogartti]

I predicted this was going to be a Japanese 151 video 😮‍💨✨ Next set to profit on is Crown Zenith !

[@PokemonPackRipsDaily]

saw a few people pull the beautiful Zapdos from a box and now I am certain I will NOT pull it when my box arrives ;(

[@EricBWI262]

An attempt to be profitable at something like a booster box of Cosmic Eclipse could be fun.

[@tywebb6904]

I might have to buy my first booster box. 151 got me back into collecting Pokemon after 20 years

[@mister7fiddlesnout]

You should try and do this with Paldea Evolved, see how for profit that turns if you can get the Magicarp maybe?

[@neseirf70]

For universal balance the next set you do to see if you can make a profit in is of course English 151!! For the trophy and for science!

[@PikaCATsoup]

I won’t complain, I still need the drowzee MB for my master set! Try and make money on SV base, starting to get up there in cost vs value

[@afreeman1901]

selling closer to original price in Japan so that's great.

[@ShadowWing13501]

I recently got a squirtle/charmander line godpack. Feel like my luck with that set is spent now, but i'm still gonna open it. Shiny treasure ex might be fun

[@Poke-Venom]

Where do you go to get the prices on the Japanese cards like this

[@xXForeverGamingXx]

“151 is in shambles” yes 😔 yes it is 😭

[@themait2994]

what's the website he looks at for checking the values?

[@JAMBURGER__100]

I bought my first Japanese 151booster box for $200. 2 weeks later they reprinted 😢 fat rip for me 😢

[@Ottrix82]

Great time to buy a bunch of boxes to rip and keep sealed

[@joshb5221]

Crown Zenith should be next for profit!! So many damn boom bang hits and it’s still cheap! 😮

[@SlappyMonke]

Even though it’s kinda in shambles I gotta say master ball cards are sick. Crown zenith for profitability maybe?

[@JoshPokestep]

Not sure if you’ve done brilliant stars in a while but it would be sick to see an opening of that! Also, that wasn’t a bad box!

[@juanromero1986]

No they are not , if you resale that's what you think , but is a fun set to open , cool art

[@jeffcaine3354]

Crown Zenith or Paldean Fates would be fun to see. Japanese boxes are my favorite to rip.

[@PokeLuvrs]

151 will definitely jump back up. Do twilight masquerade next

[@raulmontr]

I want to buy cards, any suggestions on good websites, easy and with mint/good quality no damages?
