Amazon Is Selling Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration ETBs Below Market Rate — if You Can Secure an Invite

In a world where market price has become the new MSRP for the Pokémon Trading Card Game, it can be hard to consider the possibility of securing the hottest ETBs out there right now for a whole lot less.

Thankfully, there's been a couple of recent wins for trainers this week, with retailers like Best Buy and Amazon prioritising invite systems to ensure the rarest sets are being distributed fairly.

Now, Amazon is selling the Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration Elite Trainer Boxes for just $59.99... if you can secure an invite to buy. That's a big if, but it's a whole lot better than paying the $120+ market price you'd find at TCGplayer or other resellers.

While it can be frustrating for anyone who simply wants to purchase these without jumping through hoops, it does somewhat even the playing field and at least allows a select number of trainers to buy without the stress of short drop windows.

Plus, in my view, this system does allow even more people to get their hold on cards to open up, collect, and use, rather than folk who just want to pick up a few ETBs to sell on again.

As I mentioned, Best Buy has done something similar with the elusive and extremely rare Pokémon TCG: Prismatic Evolutions ETBs, selling those for just $49.99 to those who are invited to purchase.

In the same way as Amazon’s Pokémon invites go out, your invite request will be kept on Best Buy’s system to be in consideration for the next (or future) stock drops the retailer gets for this particular ETB — before randomly selecting who amongst those requesters actually get an invite.
