We’ll see haha
Can vouch for that. They were pretty great about it though.
I'd recieved a board game that was busted inside the Amazon box, so it happened prior to packing it. Because it was shipped from the US they straight up refunded me and let me keep the parcel. No proof and no questions asked.
Peek a chu? Nah, peek a boo, I see all your items in your box!!

Gotta love Amazon us
The horrors of buying trading cards from Amazon. About to buy my first booster box, hopefully it doesn't come with resealed packs lol
Well I'd just apply for a refund if it's damaged lol
Oh what, there’s no way they shipped it like that, did they offer refund for that?
Have you ever purchase cards through Amazon Australia? Was it a different experience?
Good price, but all the comments you read on these kind of posts about Amazon selling resealed packs? Most of them relate to Amazon USA. It's far more prevalent there than in Amazon AU, so buyer beware.
Going to give this one a miss.
What's the consensus right now about holding onto these boxes and making profits in a few years?
It depends on how many reprints they do. However, these are a trendy set with a lot of valuable cards. I myself have been drawn back in by the nostalgia :(
Haha yeah same, the nostalgia kicked in and have a few boxes at home
More people than ever are buying boxes and keeping sealed meaning there should be a fair supply of these in the future.
One of the reasons why the 1999 set holds value is most kids who bought back then played with their cards too and didn't buy to keep sealed making it a more scarce resource.
In saying that, I'm going to keep an eye on this particular set because I'm a dad and it's a strong chance my kids will like pokemon like me so if I see a bargain I'm going to snag for the future because I'd it doesn't increase in value my kids and I can enjoy.
Yeah that is a good point. Agreed. Pokemon will remain popular
Same with cards, too. Nobody on the playground had cards even in sleeves, let alone binders, slabs, card savers etc. So many cards right now are straight from the packs into slabs which is why most of them won't grow too much in value.
Deal is back but for Amazon AU for $179.51.
I was tempted again but resisted. It is still really expensive in my opinion.
Currently at 25% off
now 26
PSA:
Ordered 2 x UPC.
Received today.
Both were shrink wrapped but the shrunk wrapping seemed sort of hard, not soft like the ETB.
Anywho, opened one and lo and behold, the 3 Mew promo were missing.
Another look and i saw all 16 boosters had been opened on one end.
Sigh.
So, I suppose I'll be contacting Amazon support for a refund.
Really can't be assed organising a return post.
Did they ask you to send the items back?
Yup they did. Quite inconvenient… They gave me $10 credit..
Mine were fine :)
Good price but my experience with Amazon US is you'll receive it looking like someone has drop kicked the box.
