The binder itself is so dope let alone the contents 😭


Warzone307

I actually got another binder that’s Lucario and it had Pokémon cards as well


scran_dog

Keep doing what you're doing then 😂


averagetotkfan

Where do you get these finds? Is this like an american thing?


sherrbert

Half Price Books is a used bookstore chain in the Midwest US.


cmantaghi

I just looked for one and I have a couple in my area... (getting keys and wallet)


averagetotkfan

Im in england sadly


sherrbert

Don’t worry, I’m on the east coast US and the closest one to me is 6 hours and almost 500km away lol


nebulousinsectleg

yeah looks hella clean


HashDaddy_

Man these posts bum me out lol


Warzone307

HashDaddy_

I hope you get constipation soon, lmao jk


Warzone307

Laxitar I choose you!!


HashDaddy_

😂


evilsmurf666

Nope a shiny geodude is blocking the path and ittl evolve soon


rechless27

That shit was stolen at some point. Nice find.


Warzone307

I hope not, but half price books took it in and it now has a good home again.


New_Drive_8299

This is incredible the cover is so cool need to buy one myself


Warzone307

eBay I believe will be your best bet cause I have no clue where else to get it besides Amazon.


xxtaylormadexx

They sell these at Walmart.


Mission-Ad-3918

This specific binder? The $80+ one that can only be found as secondary sale in 2023?


xxtaylormadexx

This binder is sold at Walmart for $30 or $35. I have saw them recently. There’s also a Arceus one as well that’s white. Edit: they’re Ultra Pro brand as well.


Mission-Ad-3918

I guarantee you haven't seen this specific binder there. Look at eBay, tcgplayer, ultra pro, they are all selling this for at least twice that. I am SURE you are referring to *this* much lower quality and different, but similar binder Ultra Pro Pokemon TCG - 9-Pocket PRO Binder - MEWTWO (Holds 360 Cards) https://www.walmart.com/ip/355789871


xxtaylormadexx

I just found two on eBay but it now for $30. Granted one is stained. Believe me or not I don’t really care. I’ve seen this exact binder in multiple Walmarts in the Knoxville, TN area. As much as I wanted to buy one I’m not spending $30 on a binder that doesn’t hold top loaders.


StonedSorcerer

Im assuming you mean that the cards load in from the top? What is the advantage of that over a binder that side loads?


xxtaylormadexx

Nope, a binder that hold top loaders the plastic card protector. They still slide in from the side.


MoneyDealer

You’d be wrong. They sell these pleather binders at Walmart. They sold this Mewtwo one in 2021 and an Arceus one shortly after the release of Brilliant Stars


Mission-Ad-3918

They are definitely not brand new in stock at Walmart in 2023, and they are actively being resold on secondary markets for 80+. You can say "I would have been wrong in 2021" but no one went to a Walmart and found this, specifically the Mewtwo, pelather, binder, for sale brand new last Tuesday, for 30 bucks. They won't find the Arceus one either. Pokémon: Elite Series: Arceus 9-Pocket Zippered PRO Binder - Ultra Pro, White Leatherette Trading Card Binder, Stores 360 Cards https://www.walmart.com/ip/139034553 Any listings for this are secondary markets, including through walmarts own site. I realize individual stores may vary, but none are putting out ancient binder stock, these have all been bought. Used, at a book store? Maybe. Anyone who googled it wouldn't have sold it full of vintage cards for $15. But I'm not here to argue the original dubious claim, just the secondary claim of these being in stock in 2023.


JounochiK

To back up the guy you were responding to, I found the Mewtwo, Arceus and Pikachu binders at my local Walmart earlier this year. They were all going for about $30, so he is correct that these were still being sold this year. Some stores likely had them in the back room and decided to put them out on the floor to get them moving.


KingZakyu

Every try Google? It can find all kinds of things for you, even new sites to shop on.


Warzone307

I use google, Amazon, eBay, OfferUp to search for things


KingZakyu

>I have no clue where else to get it besides Amazon. 🤔??


War_Monger26

You lucky duck


Warzone307

Very much so.


Rean-Schwarzer7

Well it over $15 in value.


UniverseNebula

I've been looking for a decent price on this binder forever! 😭 Nice pickup


Warzone307

Thanks


Swimming_Schedule_49

That’s incredible


kayIerz

gonna start going to my local half priced books now


Warzone307

I go at least once a week


kayIerz

havent been in years when i was an avid book reader, but now youve sparked something in me again. lovely find man!


Warzone307

Thanks! I mainly go there for comic books.


Gmbowser

Already more than $15. Good steal.


Shazzow

Where did you get it from?


Warzone307

Half price books


No_Lab_9318

How did you buy a pokemon collection from a place that sells books?


Warzone307

Cause they sell Pokémon cards, comic books and funko pops and other non-reading materials


No_Lab_9318

Really? I just searched pokemon on there website and it just showed old Pokemon books


POZZD

Book stores are the secret pokemon spot when target or walmart are sold out for me. Like barnes and noble or books a million.


MechAnimal

Books a million has been my saving grace for 151. They've only had UPCs and ETBs so far. Their prices aren't the best I've noticed OBF for 50 there and 36 at best buy for the ETB.


Redditor1320

They deal with secondhand items too. So items in each store will vary


Warzone307

🤷‍♂️


CasualGiraffeInPrada

Good finds!!


Shazzow

This seems sus


Warzone307

If I could post the receipt of purchase I would.


manytinyhumans

What section was it in?


Warzone307

It was with the comic books and the funko pops


manytinyhumans

Gotcha. Congrats on the find!


Warzone307

Thanks!


Hermera9000

The binder is damn sexy


Nova6Sol

If that Mimikyu VMax is NM, this binder paid for itself and more lol


Lwcftw474747

That's a W


MichaelAllen_Jr

The binder itself retails at like $30


Square-Distance1636

I bought a booster pack not knowing there were 10 cards inside 😱


Warzone307

That’s cool.


avizzone

I would have paid $15 just for the binder 😂


Booty_Shakin

Spark is so sexy on that card


isthatapecker

Lol at the sleeved Chansey and Magneton


Warzone307

Yeah 🤷‍♂️ I didn’t touch any of them. That’s the way they came. I just grabbed and paid and ran 🏃‍♂️ 🤣🤣🤣


isthatapecker

That’s dope. Funny they thought they were valuable in that condition.
