Stores Giveaways

Gamestop stores in the U.S. and Canada will give away a Charmander promo card when purchasing any product from the set. It will feature a Gamestop stamp.

We may get EB Games promos of these cards.

Best Buy will do the same, but with a Bulbasaur promo card. It will feature a 151 stamp.

Sealed Saturday

Featuring Shining Fates 2021.

The sequel to Hidden Fates.

But didn’t quite hit the spot like Hidden Fates did.

However, it was still very popular amongst collectors.

The price has been roughly the same since release with some ups and downs. Mostly due to stock selling out, and then more reprints in 2022.

Of course, the shining Charizard VMAX featured yesterday is the top dog of the set.

The next most valuable card is not even from the Shiny Vault. It’s not even a Pokemon.

Coming in at a fraction of the Shining Charizard VMAX.

It’s waifu tax time.
