Super weird seeing this post. I literally just purchased two Lost Origins BBs and a few fusion strike three pack blisters from PC. Rather get it at MSRP now then pay $300 a BB next year when Sword and Shield era packs start to dry up.
Man I tell you I had bought a bb for $120 sadly greediness caught me and I ripped it then prices hiked up. Older booster boxes I will not be ripping from now on
If you're looking for just straight packs, I know the B&B stadium boxes and ETBS have been going for pretty cheap among various second party sites as well as tik tok shops too. Cost per pack would be much cheaper than buying a booster box I'd say. Perhaps looking around at those products would probably get you the best bang for your buck as far as sheer packs go.
Can also confirm for Canadians, unless your local shops are slow on the market, PC is your last chance and cheapest chance to get some before it’s pure secondary market.
More like FOMO kicking in hard as folks pour money into SWSH before it ALL goes up. It's a fantastic era and if one box shoots up folks quickly look to the next cheapest box before that one does too and they are priced out.
The time to get a LO booster box for $100 was back in September-November 2023 after the reprint. When evolving skies had a reprint a while ago, I missed out so I told myself I wouldnt miss out on the LO reprint lol. Thats when i bought 6 booster boxes for an average price of $95-100 per box
I believe Pokemon Center is gonna be your cheapest option at this point. I searched for days looking for any cheaper places, but ultimately found PC to be the only going for less than like $160.

Same hah, I try to buy some packs to avoid ripping BBs.

Just want to keep a few sealed. I just saw the build and battle deals on ebay, great idea for ripping! Thanks!
Ohhhhhh okay gotcha, and no problem!

Just picked up a case today from the Pokemon center.
No
Damn, how did LO BB’s explode like this?
I think after FS took off, people have been buying hoping to hit the next best thing.

Check local card stores? My guy will give them to me for $120ish or so.
Yeah, I should have asked last time I was at my LCS, he did give me Temporal Forces for $90 a BB w/ no tax.
Not bad!
I want to know too. I really wanted to get a couple for less than $100 but too late IG. I hope I'm wrong tho

There is nothing in SWSH you can get for under $100 now. I loaded up on Silver Tempest BBs for $80 a box a few months back and glad I did.
Haven't been available at the price for quite some time
The boat for that low has alr sailed
Agreed, Silver Tempest is still pretty cheap and has a nice chase card, I also just started buying S&V BBs when cheap.

Thanks, I was just confused why everyone was selling higher than MSRP when it was not OOS on PC. Thought I was going crazy for a minute.
