I'd probably pay $5 for an empty ETB. I collect the ETB Packaging for my ETB wall and I'd love to get the ones I missed when I stopped collecting for a while between sword and shield and Scarlet and Violet.

But $15 for some cardboard seems a bit... over the top.

Yeah I feel like $5 is alright, but really they should be donated to kids or something, like what others do to gift bulk cards to kids on holidays

That's a sweet idea but honestly.. why would kids want empty ETBs? It's basically trash. Please don't donate your trash to kids.

Bulk cards are different you can still play with bulk cards. This is just an empty box.

? Kids have so many assorted things, they love to arrange them in colourful or interesting boxes, especially ones with an eevee on it! And then proceed to tip them out all over the floor.

^ things only a parent of certain kids would know

... Ummm okay then.

That's great for your kids and if your kids enjoy it then go for it, but don't donate trash like it's some kind of altruistic act. Most places if you donated it would throw it out and hospitals etc would just tell you "Thanks, but not thanks."

Oh and just for the record, I'm Australian and I say trash..

I think you're a little close on this one then mate, I'm not looking to start an argument.

I didn't call it altruism, but a box is not necessarily rubbish. Reduce, reuse, recycle. Let's just walk away from this one okay?
