Hey all
looking to buy a pokemon booster box for my sons birthday
however having been out of the game for 20 years the number of new editions is too overwhelming
does anyone have any quick tips on
1) where the best places to look to buy a booster box? I have a 200$ budget. but if i can save a buck, of course id prefer a bargain
2) Which edition to buy
Hes only little so this wont be for an investment purpose. more that i want him the experience of ripping dozens of packs and getting a few rares
(i dont even know whats considered rare these days)
So whilst im not looking to find $200 rares in a box. It would still be cool to have the chance to get something he can showoff if he did get one
thanks
Does he have a favourite Pokemon? I'd probably just go with a booster box of Fusion Strike, a booster box can be had for $165 + delivery @ Collectible Madness/Gameology. Of the still readily available sets it has some of the nicer rares (Mew & Celebi). You can chuck the extra budget at a folder to put the holos in, lugging around my folder as a kid was a core memory for me.
