Weekly Pokemon Card Deals and Steals (01/11)

[@iMThatOnlyBeast13]

I said this before but I want that $50 151 bundle but the 3.5 star seller is sketchy. Some people not getting their orders or potentially tampered with. Better safe than sorry?

[@millerbobbie01]

@iMThatOnlyBeast13 that GT toys is getting blasted on reddit for scamming and re-sealing packs

[@millerbobbie01]

I wouldn't touch this deal. Horror stories on reddit about GT toys. Re-sealed packs and lost "shipment" with no refund.

[@asian2go96]

@@millerbobbie01 I ordered 10 bundles from them and got them no problem. But they weren’t packaged the best. Not damaged or anything but I got 10 and didn’t get a display case at all. The bundles were just loosely in the box with the packing material. I don’t see any evidence of resealing or tampering either

[@millerbobbie01]

@asian2go96 i appreciate the response. I wanted to fire on a few and held off when I read some reviews on reddit.

[@raypunzel4257]

i just got my order today of 2 151 and a surging sparks, not a problem at all. Got two solid pulls from 151 too

[@Annacoe01]

Some people might not know but GameStop normally always has $25 dollars off if spend $250 pre tax. Might be worth if buy greninja and terapagos with one another item you choose that your store has to offer.

[@Smokemon07]

@@Annacoe01 Great Idea 🙏🙏

[@traviswylie9022]

I was only able to pre order ten single packs at game stop for journey together.

[@Smokemon07]

Sleeved packs are always lucky 🤞🤞 was that online or in store

[@TheRealAlapain420]

Did the same thing

[@ariaryayy7314]

Same. That was all I was able to get. I wasn't fighting for the bundles.

[@livictor1260]

Another sad week for deals.... here's some other deals I found: (all very much bellow market) Dark Powers Ex special collection for 24 on Game Nerdz Both Clara and Cyrus premium tournament collection for 30 on stomping grounds Shrouded fable booster bundle for 20 on stomping grounds

[@Smokemon07]

Nice 😊 Clara and Cyrus $30 each right??

[@livictor1260]

@@Smokemon07 Yeah lmao getting a set of 2 for 30 would be absurd

[@Smokemon07]

@livictor1260 🤣💯 I was about to buy em out lol

[@ProxGames62]

Pokemon should tell all retail stores to max 5 of each of their product per person a week. Spread the love

[@Smokemon07]

That would be nice 😅 seems like more stores are starting to try and introduce limits but they don't seem to actually be followed by anyone lol

[@ProxGames62]

@ they may as well cut off all online purchases so bots and scalpers don’t snipe it all

[@triabletrash1896]

GameStop let me preorder a decent amount, so hopefully it won't be canceled. I got about 2 ETBS, a booster box, a booster bundle, and one of the future tins that will be released, and that one is more of a gamble. I did go in person to preorder tho, don't know if that matters.

[@Smokemon07]

@triabletrash1896 that's awesome 💪 seems like going in person is working a lot better

[@Lion-9103]

@@triabletrash1896 did you need to be a ‘Pro’ member

[@videogamegooners]

Did you get prismatic?

[@triabletrash1896]

I think I preordered a booster bundle in November. So that's secure, I'm just glad the worker told me if I wanted to preorder anything or else I wouldn't have gotten anything.

[@i_am_dusky113]

Save you time now, dont do tsrget or Walmart or Amazon. 99% of the time it’s third party reseller. Anything msrp will sell out in minutes. Just how it is now

[@Smokemon07]

That's why we hate Walmart 😢

[@DanielGooner-0]

I'll probably choose between the Shiny Treasure or Prismatic, something about the cut throatness of going to local shopes is appealing. Is Surging Sparks Japanese edition any good? I know of a spot where they sold for 35

[@Smokemon07]

Haha very appealing 😊 I think the electric breaker one is a lot better than the dragon half... most Japanese sets are broken into 2 "Sub sets"

[@tygerman30]

I got two etbs from PC and some sleeved booster packs and thats it

[@Smokemon07]

PC etbs or regular?

[@Smokemon07]

Or was it only the PC exclusive?

[@tygerman30]

Pokemon Center exclusives. Its the first thing I buy before anything on new sets. The value is too crazy

[@zacksexton1092]

Bought 3 of the 50 dollar 151 bundles. Had pulls of charmeleon and nidoking in one. Nothing in the others. Not even an EX in one of them but only one in the other with no hits. Not sure on the reseal of 151 but I think it could be.

[@Smokemon07]

@zacksexton1092 love that nidoking 🔥🔥 thanks for letting us know, a lot of people are saying that everything looked legit 👍

[@paxtonb923]

Just ordered some journey together on gamestop. Single packs are still for preorder. As of 1/12/2025 10:52 AM EST

[@stevenscribner9787]

They drop before 9am on the same time fame every release. It's not hard to get if you put it in your calendar. Team Rocket will go live on my birthday or day before. Got surging sparks, prismatic and journey from pokemon center

Do not buy on Walmart it’s a scam !!!!!!! Don’t say I didn’t warn y’all ! Great video tho !

[@ariaryayy7314]

Walmart online definitely. The only thing I do for Walmart is if I can pick a pack up at my local Walmart.

[@noahmunoz6308]

What's wrong with walmart I've bought alot of stuff from them

[@SampsonRoofing]

@ don’t buy Pokémon right now thru Walmart you’ll get scam or read the reviews before buying

[@ariaryayy7314]

@@SampsonRoofing if it’s same day pick up, then it comes directly from the store which is fine. I don’t do online shipping for cards.

[@DaRoknrollsoldier]

I was able to pre order 2 pokemon center journey together etbs and I pre ordered a booster box in store at GameStop. Figured if I found something cheaper I could always cancel it but at this point I don't think I will.

[@erickwilling897]

I feel every word of that, @Smokemon07 I pre-ordered some sleeved boosters from Gamestop. It is all they had available & don't actually charge you (except for booster boxes, I think it is a 25% deposit) until the order processes. I got enough time to save $60 bucks.

[@Brewdog-e8p]

GameStop place has been the place has been the place for pre-orders and you didn’t hear from me, but PSA may soon be bought out by GameStop because of how much cash they just happened to have on hand for any of you keeping up with GameStop portfolio
