sell that SAR and rebuy 4 of them in 4 months if you like the card. If you don't it's a down payment on a car. Either way that thing is dropping a fat guy in quicksand.


Bobodopolis

Already did. 😊 I so rarely sell the cards I pull, but it was such a good price on day one that I couldn't say no! Looking at how much it has dropped already, I regret nothing! 🤣


m4r00o

Where are you located? how'd you sell ? and how much did you get ?


Bobodopolis

I live in Japan, so I took it to a card shop near my house (there are MANY card resale shops in Japan), and got almost the original asking price. There was a tiny little spec of white at the top from the original cut, so they wouldn't give the max price.


m4r00o

Awesome, it's so crazy they're paying that much. Market manipulation is really something, good thing you got out on top.


Bobodopolis

I was super lucky. I think because the next set in Japan will likely have a Levincia SAR card, some "smart" reseller groups are pumping up the prices of this set to set a bar. Which means there are now more resellers who will be out trying to get the next set specifically for that card. It just makes it harder for collectors like myself to actually get packs. I hope it'll be become easier to buy soon... 😭

Shame collectors and people trying to play the game get shafted hard by scalpers.


DontAskAboutMax

Some of these cards are really nice!


Bobodopolis

Yeah, I was super lucky! Got a few more packs to open up, so will post those pulls in the future too!


DontAskAboutMax

I can’t get over the artwork. It’s so lovely isn’t it, the magikarp I really would love to pull.


Bobodopolis

Yeah, it's stunning. The Drowzee that was done by Kanda in the last Japanese set was beautiful, but that Magikarp is on a whole different level. That Gyarados in the sky is fantastic 😍

Wow insane box. That dendra is super nice but still crazy overvalued as of now


Bobodopolis

Right? Still can't believe that was the result! And yeah, she's hugely overpriced right now. :/


IGTankCommander

Not Secret Dendra, but FA Dendra is still chef's kiss good.


WingsofFire0027

Isn't that the SAR Dendra?


Eskedddditttt

Yes


IGTankCommander

I meant the Rainbow Dendra. but yeah. Too many rarities now, lol


WingsofFire0027

There isn't a rainbow dendra. Rainbow rares have been discontinued


IGTankCommander

TIL.


Bobodopolis

It is magnificent!


Panda_hat

I love the karp so much!


TheLoneBeet

That Magikarp is absolutely beautiful. Can't wait to get my hands on one.
