Surging Sparks Pokemon Center ETBs Sell Out Again!

[@Itwasneveraphasecards]

Let me know if you were able to get any Pokemon center ETBs this restock!

[@PolafTCG]

Got 2 more cases! The discord coming in clutch!

Man I just wanted one and can’t even get it

1 case didn't have enough time for a second

[@dadcanibeagirl]

Very grateful I was able to purchase 1 solely for the fact I wanted that Shinji Kanda Magneton PC stamp in my binder, everything else was a bonus for me..

[@davidleedom2683]

You are correct about TCGPlayer only allowing brick and mortar stores to sell presale on both singles and sealed

[@PPPantsss]

I honestly cant believe that I was able to pre order Surging Sparks booster boxes for $101 during the first wave. Shout out to Joshes cards. Opened a couple 6 pack boxes and got both Hydreigon ex's , Latios and Pikachu ex.

[@PokeSteve69]

Midnight release day everyone can sell. Presale is just brick mortar

[@Itwasneveraphasecards]

Thanks for verifying that

[@Nickolus34]

Missed it by minutes. Refreshed and checked every 15 minutes. Literally crazy!

[@TEK-h6r]

the etb was up from 8 to 1 o'clock (UK) I think, I grabbed one luckily.

[@Top_Loaded_JRGS77]

I was checking all morning but I did not click onto it. Pretty slick Pokémon Center 😡

[@2094-o7t]

same thing happened to me :(

[@abadman972]

Discord is your way to have all the info for the drop

[@Richmond-f9o]

Fuck I’m pissed same shit I was up earlyy

[@MrMurknem]

Exact same thing with me

[@codywinter9611]

I new today was the day for restock , I too looked and it said “ sold out “ but I clicked on the PC ETB anywayz an sure enough it was in stock so I quickly ordered 4

[@fictixn]

Got some decent pulls from a regular ETB. That's enough Surging Sparks for me lol. Kinda just wanted to open one ETB for the fun of it. I've stuck to buying singles that I really like instead of ripping packs....more cost efficient, especially now that I'm transitioning to "adulting" responsibilities 😅

[@zerokool-2058]

That’s why I pre order when they went up originally! Is holiday season, so lots of people will be buying.

[@jfoley1987]

Glad I preordered my PC ETB cases 2 months ago

⁠​⁠@@skittlesbelong They was listed in August and you had until about 2 weeks ago to order them. Readily available for anyone, wasn’t really any problem

[@Rickmanou81293]

Median is not necessarily the average but the midpoint value when you list the values from highest to lowest. So it's probably not too far off but it's valuable with skewed averages.

[@allthewayinu]

This set especially the PC ETBs will continue to skyrocket. A ETB is the only way you can get the best card in the set

[@2094-o7t]

had a great day yesterday found a etb at my walmart bought that and a electric stacking tin, my 2nd silver tempest pack had the lugia v and my 3rd pack from the etb had the florida christmas tree so pretty solid and good impressions with surging sparks so far.

[@DreamReaperGaming]

Seen the first video you made about the first pre - order, i was lucky and think i got one of the last ones and just came today. im really debating whether i want to open it or not. Thank you for the content much love.

[@jb427tcg]

Once Prismatic comes out and the insanity begins, we'll be able to get some of these again I think

[@justanothercollector43]

Checked in the am wasnt up… went out for a box at GameStop and missed the restock but my case also just came in the mail 💪🏼

[@MahBahlZitch-ks6bn]

Got two cases! Did you get any of those new special boxes for prismatic from GameStop? They sold out within 10 minutes

[@AV-guard]

Not the best product… only 4 boosters and the surprise promo is not worth. Best products are with Ar/SAR promo

[@MahBahlZitch-ks6bn]

@ 151 poster collections aren’t the best products but it’s the packs inside that make it desirable as in what I believe this product will do

[@refineme]

I was able to order 4 more ETBs. Had to spam the hell out of the add to cart button like mad before it added. Then I checked out quickly and got the confirmation.

[@skittlesbelong]

Your the problem.

[@bitconemaxi]

@@skittlesbelongdog eat dog world. Lol Don't hate the player, hate the game 😂

[@refineme]

It’s the game we just gotta play now if you want it. I don’t have any bots so I have to rely on alerts, step away from work, and spam that button like a mad man. It’s pretty ridiculous, buts it’s what you gotta do if you want it directly from PC. I’m sure my little collection of cards, booster boxes and ETBs isn’t what’s breaking the hobby.

[@Artictoyo]

I just got tired and got me a bot. Managed to get 2 cases of etbs this morning. Sold out within 30 minutes. People struggled to get them even when In stock.

[@Nerfguncharlie136]

Gamestop just did preorders for the Prismatic Evolutions 2 pack tins and the Surprise boxes, and they emptied out before I could check out

[@MegaDragon987]

was able to order some surging sparks PC ETB before it went out of stock

[@OBIWANKENOBI88]

Hopefully they have alot more pokemon center etbs because I miss it each time

[@KaijuLover85]

i don’t think were getting more restocks of the PC etbs i couldn’t get more. already have 2 cases tired for a 3rd but no luck

[@TheIfarted]

Theres a lot at my lgs for $130.. i think after time goes on it could go to $110 or around there honestly, i think there more expensive online then at your lgs at least in my area minneapolis MN

[@MINLONG1]

hi do you know what time they start to post the restock normally? like 8 am in the morning ?

[@Itwasneveraphasecards]

It was around 7 am PST this time

[@matyice2135]

Thank god the local store had them for 50 bucks an etb and booster at 27

[@simonalcroft7897]

We’re talking about the PC exclusive one bro not the trash ETB. Of course you can buy those for $50

[@davidleedom2683]

Just looked at that PSA 10 Pikachu... it's up to 50 grand... there is still 5 days left. I know its just manufactured hype but damn

[@JD022]

Got a case of etbs. Thanks!

[@GhostedGoaty]

I was able to snag 4 ETBs on pokecenter this morning! 😄

[@PokeDancollects]

So mad how fast it sold out

[@benjipc928]

How many restocks of the poke center etb tend to happen? Missed out :(

[@simonalcroft7897]

That’s probably it bro

[@thatoldmat91]

Guys if y'all aren't in this discord...you're missing out. In stock linke all day and everyone's great 👍

[@herotcg4028]

That promo card is fire

[@pokemattsden]

UK sold out again even before the US 🤣 Ive been waiting for these to be re released and now have a total of x4 sealed cases 👍 Just hoping that this will be a good long term play. Ultimately this will depend on the 10 rate of that magneton 😅

[@joshbatten8844]

I could had bought more but i already got 13 a case booster boxs and like $2500 on prismatic evolution already so i didn't bite this time save up for prismatic or the next 2 sets

[@simonalcroft7897]

God job my guy. You’ve got to start somewhere so keep working at it x

[@bluxskills8390]

How i can buy in pokemon center i'm in spain?

[@PokéHustler]

I got 4 bundles and 6 ETBs Wild

[@PokemonZMasterCollector]

You must be new on TCG Player only authorized stores can sell in presale.

[@keyframeclips]

Pull rates seem to be still somewhat comparable to current scarlet and violet. I watched a streamer pull four of the pikachu sirs over the initial prerelease weekend within the span of less than 1000 packs. My point being, there will be plenty of copies available and there will be plenty of product available. Don’t fomo, especially when the set literally just released.

[@N7mudkip]

And there’s the guy who opened 2400 packs and only got 1 Pikachu and 1 Latias lol

[@co_snowy]

Pikachu at 45k right now LMAOOO

[@TheMileHighCollector]

$50k now lol…card went parabolic

[@justinsylvester8181]

150k they are just trolling at this point

[@TheMileHighCollector]

@ this is clearly shill bidding, right? RIGHT?! $180k now lol. That’s a down payment on a house. At least they get free shipping though.

[@ceedee873]

200k now I think.. this is insane

[@luked4587]

If you haven't realised.. it's just getting trolled at this point lol. It's going to get relisted as soon as it ends, no one is paying

[@KingSally92]

Dayum and I was being generous and only buying 1 lol

[@KittyDipper]

i hate that most of the people who buy the etbs do it JUST to resell for 2x price

[@777superlightwater]

Will it restock today again or at all???

[@saulmunguia4933]

I just got back into this hobby about 1 year and a half ago and thought it was cool. It is now getting on my nerves. Pokemon Center has the resources to print plenty to meet with demand and yet they don't. Surging Sparks, the set I've been waiting for, cannot even be attained. Nevermind Prismatic Evolutions, and we're months away from the release. My patience is nearing it's end and I am about to sell all my cards and end this ridiculousness. Just ridiculous!!!

[@AV-guard]

People are buying 4 etb not to open bout to re-sell, no worries you will able to cach At least one for your collection . Just be patient Price will drop .

[@saulmunguia4933]

@AV-guard I hope so. I just don't get why Pokemon Center does not limit the amount to just 1 or 2 per person. At least until they restock. That way everyone has a chance to at least get one.

[@saulmunguia4933]

And I don't need for collection. I need to open and use cards for TCG game. I like to play. However, I prefer to pull the cards rather than buy.

[@TheSnackAttackingSnorlax]

So you wanna buy some pc etbs?? Sell ya one for $200.

[@saulmunguia4933]

@@TheSnackAttackingSnorlax lol that is insane!

[@Doobiewizard]

Got 3 boxes of ETBs and the pull rates are horrid. Got much better rates out of the 6 pack booster bundles! No Pikachu yet but lots of SIRs!

[@Pokerips1995]

How brutal are the pull rates? I mean this is ridiculous hahaha

[@Itwasneveraphasecards]

TCGPlayer reported any specific SIR at 1/960

[@777superlightwater]

It wouldn’t let me add to cart smh

[@PokeFX_Tube]

No way, I tried to get 1. I just need 1 Pokemon Center ETB because that is the one I'm going to keep sealed but it was gone in minutes :(

[@justnikscom]

As Europeans, we're 'unable' to place orders on PC, yet booster box prices are over $160. I don't understand why everyone buys from PC. Don't you have other or better options. How is the allocation overseas?

[@AV-guard]

People buy from Pokemon center due to the exclusive promo in limited edition Also this etb is exclusive PC . Regular etb doesnt have the PC stamp

[@justnikscom]

@AV-guard But I'm talking about the booster boxes
