Welcome to Google Translation for jargon your kids use. I can’t explain “six seven”, but I can explain these.
Booster packs are the tiny mystery packs that somehow hold your child’s hopes, dreams, and your weekend budget. Each one has 10 random Pokémon cards — most will be duplicates, a few might sparkle, and one might make your kid scream like they just won the lottery. It’s basically gambling for elementary schoolers, but with adorable monsters and way less regret. Booster bundles are simply a box with 6 packs inside. These usually are the best bang for your buck (or your child’s buck, no judgement) when it comes to pack opening. Display boxes have a whopping 36 packs and at least 20 “you’re the best parent ever”s.
Here’s the current booster pack and bundle inventory and pricing. Why are the booster pack prices different even though they all contain 10 cards? Different sets have differing demand depending on things like how many cards are in the set, popularity of the characters, whether they’re still in print, and the value of the chase cards (the most expensive cards to find in that set).
Actual art on the front of the pack may vary from photo. These are first-come-first-served — all sales are final — unless you find the $500 chase card, in which case I’d gladly take it back. Please note: unfortunately at this time, these items are limited to friends, friends-of-friends, family and coworkers.
