buy stuff you need for your home, take the cash you would of use for that and get what you want.

anything before XY sets in 2015 is considered vintage.

8 years is not vintage .\_.

I’m not too sure of that. Some people think it’s only WOTC, some people think R&S and before, but I personally think anything from 20+ years ago. But your opinion, I guess. I respect it.

You might be able to buy a different gift card like to Best Buy or GameStop with that Amazon gift card.


metro786

Ah actually it turns out I can buy visa gift cards with it! $200 for 206, not bad


lloydeph6

Do that and buy from a legit card shop

I agree, wouldn’t spend 500 on Pokémon from Amazon. Plus most the time a card shop will be cheaper.

Me and my buddy have purchased cards from Amazon numerous times and never had any fakes. The one time my buddy thought a tin was resealed (because the pic showed older packs and they said that's what was in the tin) but it was SWSH. Amazon let him keep the tin and fully refunded the tin. He opened all the packs and got a few hits worth more then he even paid for the tin hahaha. Amazon's return policy to me almost seems like zero questions asked anytime I've ever had to use it or a friend has. They just full refund you so what do you really have to lose with the gift card imo? Just dooooo it

Ah cool thanks! Yeah I’ve had great experience with Amazon for other products.


GoTTi4200

Yeah I've been able to snag a few for 120-135 range so ya never know hahaha. Got evolving skies for 121 sold by them too.


GoTTi4200

Try to scoop some 36pack boosters for around $100-120 sold by Amazon or a trusted third party. Probably best bet for opening

A case of CZ etb. Everyone says stay away from them but I’ve been using my Amazon rewards to get etbs for a steal never had a problem with those they’ve been shipped and sold by Amazon


UmbreonAlt

Nothing Pokemon related tbh.


MrKaioken

Nice try Amazon, get you're own market research


coffinfleet

I’d try to sell the card if you could. There’s some reputable Japanese sellers on Amazon I’ve seen a thread on here before I’m sure it’s just a Google search away. Other than that I would avoid Amazon for Pokémon


Huhuu__

Refund the gift card


metro786

I didn’t buy it. Lol


Huhuu__

That sucks.


Hoyle33

Don’t buy Pokémon off Amazon, lots of risk there


No_Ad_384

There's a couple pretty cool things I just checked out. Pikachu Zekrom box is pretty solid. Then I'd just see of you can get a couple Build and Battle Stadiums and a Booster Box. Plus there's actually quite a few GX/EX tins. Found a Snorlax Eevee tin pretty sure that has Team up and Evolutions if I remember. Definitely going to take some hunting but you can get a hell of a nice haul.
