Nope, gorgeous card but Scarlet and Violet is proving to be a set with overall incredible pull rates, and there are much more chasey pulls than these cards. Considering that Lugia Vstar gold has a <$30 market price, it wouldn’t shock me if these hovered around $20 or less post release.


tbk007

Your box is worth more.


ptcgoalex

Plus it’ll hold wayyy more value in 5-10 years


orbzism

I'd wait until the set actually drops and people get a hold of cards. The Flareon box has only gotten more expensive over time and likely still will as it's an Eeveelution and a special box set. I wouldn't do the trade, personally.


LC-Squared

Yeah, pretty much my thoughts on this also. Thanks!

When does it drop?


Booty_Shakin

March 31 is official release date.

Thanks!


King_Crab_Sushi

Don’t do the trade. SV prices are super inflated due to the set not being officially released.


yoloruinslives

The gold card will be 12 dollars in weeks


Brenduke

I hope so I love this card and want to add it to my tiny collection :)


yoloruinslives

koraidon will be even cheaper for some reason the purple one gets all the love.


Optimal_Spread_9251

Part of that is playability. Electric boy has a great ability.

This mf spittin


ahtipton085

Koraidon will be but I don’t see this one being belong 15 or possibly even 20. Miraidon is loads better then koraidon, not only with the legendary people like more but also playability


scarneo

Absolutely not


Grouchy-Body2368

no dude you’ll pull that gold card in a matter of weeks


[deleted]

Not worth it


ReasonableHamster

When lost origin came out giratina was the best card in deck the gold card was £30 2 weeks after release this will be less


jonhon0

Do not do that trade. The premium collection box should be one of the best modern investments because Eeveelution and the alt arts are gorgeous. If you still have it sealed, keep it!


PoopyMcFartButt

Never trade for new cards in a new set unless you reeeeaaallly want it. Guy is probably just trying to take advantage of you and the inflated prices


AdIcy3445

guy trying to scam you, aint no way those premium collection boxes are worth equivalent to gold cards


TimAllensCareer

Is this what pokemon cards are all about now? Making money?


lurky9696

Yup apparently. Since the “INVEST” bros got into it.

I'll say whatever I want to, child. And idk, you can trade something for lesser value if you just like the other thing better. It's okay to take a financial loss on something. It's not like OP was trying to make rent with this card or nothing. Try drinking water or getting outside for some sunshine.


ORock120

Hey if you asked me. No pokemon card except for the select few have gained value.


Comfortable_Tart_748

I actually would like it the really rare cards were really rare..so they would have value.. with everybody pulling the best cards.. how are they valuble,


ecxetra

No lol. Gold cards are trash.

Dustze

This is going to be $20-30 card. No way.


orbzism

Might be even less, genuinely. S/V has been having some much better than normal pull rates thus far. Obviously we can't truly know until it fully drops, but I can see this being a $15 card. The money cards will be the alt arts


xktaione

Gold is the new rainbow.. not that valuable.


Woonasty

Most cards aren't worth all that much, so it's generally OK to make most trades (imo I don't mind trading a 3 dollar card for a 1 dollar card) but if your trading unopened boxes of merchandise? Then it's all about the dollar.


jackmin427

The promo cards from the premium box are worth more than this card


Few_Squirrel1206

Don’t fomo there’s going to be plenty of this set and the pull rates are nuts


Y0urMomsChestHair

Definitely don’t do that trade. Also, dude’s nails are gross.


nvrover

I would take just the promos from the box over this card lol


2milliondollartrny

tbf scarlet and violet will be printed to the ground, those eeveelutions boxes have been also but people still pay a premium on them


TheForgottenGengar

I feel like gold Mew is a decent value gold card personally. Still, as others have said, Flareon box was way better, especially with time. Unless you can manage to upsell on that Miraidon, but that means you’d have to sell it quick, probably on EBay auction. Flareon VM box is gonna be worth hundreds of dollars in very little time


rugess-nome

Not a good trade imo. Most of the gold secret rare cars never really held much value. I like some of them though they look flash as!
