Instead of increasing the MSRP on the ETBs, they lowered the packs from 10 to 9, so that's the hidden cost increase.
@honbuk3379 Жыл бұрын
I probably would have liked a higher price for 10 packs more
@vherostar Жыл бұрын
Its sad though as it costs them like 25 cents a pack to make at the most. I mean if Chinese knockoffs can sell at 50 cents a pack and make profit then we are truly getting ripped off its why the price increase was a joke. Oh manufacturing went up 5 cents? Lets raise the price 50 cents as they are making 900% markup on these products and want to continue with such a poor value product.

Watching these openings is really deflating my hype to open packs. There are so many cool cards in the set, and I currently have 2 ETBs and 1 premium collection pre ordered, but it seems pointless to open them with these pull rates. I know they can't be handing them out left and right, but this seems super low. I may just keep 1 of each sealed, and crack the 1 ETB for the promo snorlax.

I think we've been a bit spoiled with Crown Zenith and especially Obsidian Flames (though I opened a single ETB of that and just got a Houndoom EX... the second ETB was much better!), I empathise with them trying to find the sweet spot with the pull rates. When it comes to the boxes, I have 1 of everything except the booster bundles and mini tins prebooked and I will try and pick up another poster box so I can display each side but then will probably just go for booster bundles if I decide I want to crack some more open.
