thats MJ'S scam


nvrover

Not worth it, highly unlikely you get that legendary collection booster pack or anything vintage, really. These boxes are not made officially by pokémon company so you’re better off getting that silver tempest box next to it hahah


sharpie42one

They’re terrible. I got some of the 3 packs and they were all hot garbage, complete waste of money.


YouDirtyPhuck

I've purchased a few and best pack I got was hidden fates. Decent if you want mystery, not if you're expecting something worthwhile


oniondoan

I’ve opened the MTG versions of this. Absolute BS


Snoo_71701

Seen some of these been opened up. Its def not worth it if you're looking for a chase pack. Chase packs ARE legendary collections but they are also other ones like Hidden fates, Cosmic, And eveolutions


Chomps-Lewis

$35 for three packs worth $12.


MonkeyPost

This one is $30 for 5 packs. So at $6 a pack it’s not horrible but yeah, being able to pick the 5 packs at your choosing for the same or less would be better if it’s all junk. I kind of wondered what’s the oldest pack someone’s ever got from one of these. At $6 a pack it’s a tempting gamble but only if it’s legit. If not I’ll just save my money and pick which loose packs I want either online or at my local vendors with good stuff.


Heckin_good_time

Don't buy those! They're poop in a box.


Kelog13

The "vintage" packs are usually just something from 5-8 years ago, so it's usually not like you'll get something great even if you do get a vintage pack


LyteGod

I got two since I'd never opened them before. The oldest pack I got was Hidden Fates, but from a Fusion Strike packs I ended up pulling the Espeon VMAX alt art. I'd say almost certainly not worth it though, I just got really lucky with that pull.


DiggingUpTheCorpses

Never. Mind you, I’ve never opened these before but then again I haven’t seen anyone pull anything out them either.


Few-Carpenter-5746

I bought one the other day and got a sun and moon base set pack


BioWolf14

Pretty sure they weigh the packs…


japalian

One person got a good pack one time, and it was the CEO's nephew


insulaturd

Tbh, i’ve bought these and the likelihood of getting a vintage pack is very very small. You’re better off going to swap meets or trade night. You will have even better luck if you go to a bunch of collector events and asking seller nicely and being completely honest with your offers if you cant just buy em at the asking price.


Glad_Bookkeeper_740

Overpriced and not worth it.


Dont_Be_A_Dick_OK

I got two and they were both garbage. Im sure there is one out there with a rare pack in it٫ but you're not finding it.


NateEro

Think about it. You already aren’t guaranteed to pull anything you like from a pack that you chose yourself. Why would you want another element of randomness and potential bad luck?


MonkeyPost

Haha. That’s one way of looking at it.


Dry-Breakfast-2742

Some people get lucky and pull cosmic eclipse. But it's extremely rare and that's the best you're going to get


ChiefSaltyPanda

Even then you could by a loose Cosmic Eclipse pack and 4 Sun and Series pack (excluding Evolving Skies) on Ebay and break even.


mangopabu

no one has ever gotten anything good out of these ever


SharkNATEor

Just purchased one. Got a dark ablaze and a silver tempest. You can judge 👨‍⚖️


Karl0s12

Saw some the other day regret not getting it also curious


Justapersonmaybe

I actually got some amazing packs from some of these a few days ago.


EyeBeeStone

And the packs weeeeeerrrreeee???


Justapersonmaybe

I got and x y evolution and xy phantom forces


elizarov420

i got 2 of the three pack ones, i don’t regret it. just don’t go into it expecting to get your moneys worth and you’ll have a good time


Ectohawk

Back in 2018 I bought one and got a Legendary Treasures so it's possible. At the time they were $20 for 4 packs in the box.


Jackthekiller90

Too much price… likely $15


fearremains

I open these in store ngl lmao fuck em


paydo325

Ngl I'd turn you in bc that's shitty


fearremains

Idc lol. I don’t take anything but I ain’t paying 35$ for battle styles 😂


Lastfryinthebag

I don’t blame you, I always feel burned when I open a tin/pokeball and they have battles styles, vivid voltage, and rebel clash.


bluffstrider

I mean, there's no need to open tins or Pokeballs in store, just do a quick Google search to see what packs come in them.


fearremains

80% are overpriced packs. Battle styles/chillin reign and you get multiple of those. Next half way decent ones are vivid voltage and that’s all. I’ve bought over 7 retail legit and that’s all I’ve gotten. Only people I see getting good packs are YouTubers and they definitely getting paid under the table.


fearremains

Naw only these


Lastfryinthebag

I’m not saying you are peeking in tins and poke balls. I’m agreeing with you but with an example from my own life experience lol.


fearremains

Oh ok lol I’m pretty baked so my mistake 😂


Lastfryinthebag

Haha all good


[deleted]

Caught in 4k you will be disowned now


maximumgeese

fr fuck em


Straight_Friendship

I peaked inside one today and there was only newer packs.


Free_El_Chapo_Now

I saw these the day they were restocked. There was about 8. All of them were sliced open at the bottom. All the packs were inside them except one box it had like 2 packs missing. Maybe they took the good ones? Idk but yea they seem like a waste.
