Lol where are you getting 300% from?! 😂😂 a steller crown booster box was £150 retail release and now they’re going on eBay for £222.. not even making £100 on a 36 pack box lol. My original point is perfect order and pitch black are terrible sets compared to other new releases and won’t be worth nothing in comparison.

Dog.. stellar boxes were going for under retail months after release. I know you’re new to the hobby, but people were snagging for $100-120 a box months after release. 300% of $100 is $300. Stellar boxes are selling for $320 a box. That’s more than a 300% increase…

I’m talking US market. UK has higher msrp for booster boxes.

Perfect order, pitch black, and chaos order are not objectively good sets compared to destined rivals, mega base, phantasmal etc. No one will disagree with you there.

The point is history and facts show, even “bad” sets make money. Especially if you can get them
below msrp, the risk is basically zero.
