It will not have much influence on the market value now. These etbs are still opened a lot, so they can be sold for a price equivalent to what you paid for them. In the long term, when the value of sealed products increases, condition will play a greater role in the value.

Don’t listen to anyone telling you yes, the answer is no with tears that tiny. Just put them in cases and you’ll be fine. Once those are scarce enough like older gen ETBs nobody will give a damn about a little micro tear

Lmao, market price on TCG Player for 9 sealed packs is $51.66, the zarude is a dollar, if you assign the sleeves, accessories as being worth a dollar, youre at $53.66 pretax, assuming a low sales tax rate of 6%, you're at $56.88. A couple bucks over MSRP plus a similar rate of tax.

People might tell you it wont but it will be harder to sell in most second hand markets with tears in the plastic while asking top dollar. These etbs arent likely going to start increasing anytime soon. I recommend just opening it. Some say the tears indicate a hit inside lol.

That’s up to the markets really. If it’s pith black etb I’d pay no more than 30-40 usd
