Amazon Restocks Rare Pokémon TCG Sets for Labor Day
For those seeking Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) deals on Labor Day, Amazon has recently restocked several rare sets at discounted prices. Among them are the First Partner Illustration Collection Series 3 and the Scarlet & Violet, Prismatic Evolutions Super-Premium Collection.
The First Partner Illustration Collection Series 3 marks the final chapter in a series celebrating Pokémon's 30th anniversary. Each box includes one illustration rare-style promo card featuring the First Partner Pokémon from various regions, two booster packs pulled from Pitch Black and Chaos Rising, and an exclusive sticker sheet. Amazon is listing it for $34, which is on par with TCGplayer's median price of $34.
The Scarlet & Violet, Prismatic Evolutions Super-Premium Collection, priced at $274.99, includes a full-art foil promo card featuring Eevee ex, a fuzzy Eevee deck box, a playmat, 65 card sleeves, and 15 Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet, Prismatic Evolutions booster packs.
TCGplayer lists the median price for this collection at $310, while market value is slightly lower at $257.54. However, buying from Amazon offers the security of purchasing new, sealed products, and with a price just under $300, it's still a good deal.
The Labor Day restock also includes other notable items such as Pitch Black Booster Display Sets for $187.23 and Ascended Heroes Mega Meganium/Emboar/Feraligatr ex Boxes for $67.19. While these prices may be above market value, Amazon is still offering a better deal than buying from TCGplayer.
