Looking for Black Friday deals on Pokémon? The Phantasmal Flames Booster Box is below market value on Amazon.
TL;DR: As of Nov. 26, the Phantasmal Flames Booster Box has dropped to $259.95 at Amazon, which is $10 below TCGplayer's market value.
The first expansion for Pokémon TCG: Mega Evolution, Phantasmal Flames, is now in the wild and trainers are going mad for it. The beautiful thing about this set is seeing more stock floating around in general. Hopefully this is a sign of Pokémon TCG being printed into oblivion, which should in turn put scalpers off and we can enjoy collecting and playing.
Big box retailers are slowly getting the message, with the Phantasmal Flames Booster box $10 cheaper than market value right now in the Amazon Black Friday sale compared to TCGplayer's price of $269.93. Yes, it's over MSRP, but unfortunatley that's the market and it's what people are willing to pay.
Trainers can look forward to ripping open 36 packs that could very well have a Mega Charizard X ex card in there. I'm talking about the standard ex, Alt Rare, Secret Illustration Rare, and Gold Hyper Rare. They all look insane and are some of the most expensive chase card in the modern era right now. I've also been keeping an eye out for other Black Friday Pokémon deals for those who fancy a new Funko or Squishmallow.
