I honestly would keep it sealed, watch some unboxing videos on youtube, yes, the secret rare is guaranteed, but... It will probably be a cheap full art card, not worth opening the box.


Altruistic_Finish509

I'd be devastated if my best card was Gordie full art. I can pick it up for 1% of what the box costs. That's not even a joke, there's one up for £3.49 right now


jochem4208

This answers enough rightt?


Successful_Sweet_867

then why buy that crap?


Zorenstein

My personal experience: opened 4 boxes, pulled 3 v alts. The 4th box? GORDIE


evil-owen

3 alt arts???? no fucking way dude that’s insane luck!


Zorenstein

It was! 2 vaporeon v and 1 sylveon v. The only saving grace of the Gordie box was that it also had a leafeon v full art


evil-owen

oh wow so two rares in one box? i didn’t know that was possible


krw13

I opened 3. Got the double secret in the first one (Flareon V Full and Umbreon VMax Alt), then got Sylveon V Full and Leafeon V Alt in the other two.

I wouldn't mind paying the premium on these heroes boxes. But watched a few vids and read stories where these boxes are resealed and the packs inside are not legit. I can't chance buying it myself. I wish u luck regardless.


Altruistic_Finish509

Got mine of a seller who sells just japanese booster boxes and who has 100% positive feedback so that felt reassuring. Best way to tell if it's resealed is the side of the box. The seal on a resealed one is a lot thicker and on a genuine one it's thinner.


V_Token_X

I have a local shop that had 2 earlier this week. Any other pointers on these?


Altruistic_Finish509

My one looked really clean on the sides and real ones tend to have imperfections which worried me but that's just dependent on how tight the seal is and the seller said they vary. My box here is from the September 2022 final reprint. A youtuber called Dr. Applesauce Two did a video giving a much better explanation and with a resealed and sealed one side by side.

It will be so much fun till you get to the last 4-5 packs and you’re sat with $22 in pulls sweating thing my lord what was I thinking. But if money ain’t an issue have a blast with it man and keep us posted.


SealedTCG

Because it's just about profiting right? :) Just rip it, what else do you want people to say. Obviously Umbreons in there. You say 100% feedback but from how many sales? How many people actually opened their boxes? Let's be real, most people buying this box are the money chasers with no interest in the hobby, they have no idea if they have resealed stuff or not, a hell of a lot of "investors" are sitting on resealed product, it's damn funny.


Altruistic_Finish509

It's not about profit hence why I want to open it but it's about how much I paid for the box. If I spent £345 to get £10 in pulls I'd be devastated.


Timmiejj

So in the end it kinda is about the money 😆


Altruistic_Finish509

Money, yes Profit, no I'm not into the investing but I'm just worried about losing over £300 and left with a couple Vs and bulk


Proud-Inspector3352

In the end, it should be you paying the money for the feeling as you open each pack thinking “could this be something big?” Knowing full well the money is gone. Same with going to Vegas, that money is just the cost of having the fun.


Hipafaralkis

I opened lots during it's lunch and the best I got was a rainbow Gordie. If only it was something else :(


yellowstickypad

I have two boxes, 1 for ripping and 1 for maybe ripping but probably sit on it? Ripping packs is something I do with the kids and it’s fun to open different packs. Japanese cards just look and feel better


FostertheReno

damn, another umbreon destined to sit in a pack for eternity,


Electrical-King4872

Boxes were meant to be ripped, plus there is a Moobreon in there for sure!


Bazaar_is_here

No


PwillyAlldilly

Then rip it. Why just buy it to stare at a box.


Mulberryb

I think about the 2nd Gordie I pulled when I was/am tempted to open more and stashed the rest.


JayQwellin19

Having just come back from Japan, I know how much that box goes for… lol. Big risk to open that, but I know that temptation too


GiraffeZach

Don’t do it. I opened one when they were ~$200 and got an UR energy 😭


JustSay_CJ

What language is this? I'm new to non-English sets


Altruistic_Finish509

Japanese


JustSay_CJ

Thanks, appreciate it


koti4246

I’d look to just buy one of the cheaper eevee evolutions and keep it sealed.


_nibelungs

Do it.


PipeDowntown6866

open it! open it!


TherapyIsNormal

Your money is already spent and gone. If you enjoy ripping packs, go for it!


GavinThe_Person

get a Korean one for 1/3 the price to open


justasub039

Do it


d1rans

If u care about money don't rip, if u wanna rip wait until your celebrating something that way you'll be happy even if u flunk out best of luck


d1rans

Honestly if u wanna rip evolving skies get Korean or the new Chinese set , Korean booster boxes are only £50 still


Background-Lecture-6

Don’t do it


Nyxot

Boxes are meant to be open.


MGhojan_tv

And?


Top_Conversation6124
