Pokémon TCG sealed products are now cheaper on the collector market than through big box retailers like Amazon. This is unprecedented in trading card game markets, but the likes of Target and Amazon now charge whatever they like for in-demand Pokémon TCG products.
However, I’ll show you how to save some real money. Plus, on top of that, the single card market is crashing, so now is a great time to grab individual chase cards while prices are in free fall.
TL;DR: The Best Deals For Today
Today’s deals also include major discounts on Switch 2 accessories, a still-live preorder window for Magic: The Gathering’s Final Fantasy crossover, and some premium gaming hardware drops.
If you’ve been holding off on upgrading your desktop setup, the latest Cooler Master and Skytech builds are down hundreds of dollars, and there’s also a 1TB Pixel 9 Pro with Google AI priced well under retail.
Even DOOM fans get a nod today with a limited edition A3 print up for preorder through IGN Store
151 Poster Collection
Let’s take this 151 poster collection on Amazon as a solid example. This is a $15 product that has three booster packs and three promos inside, nothing special.
This currently has a market value of around $33.24 at TCG Player, so it’s a little baffling how big box retailers like Amazon can charge above what people in the market are willing to pay. But if you’re desperate, it’s up and available for $40+ sold and shipped by Amazon.
151 Booster Pack, But at Market Value
Unless you’re dead set on grabbing the promo cards and poster in the bundle above, grabbing booster packs from TCG Player could be where it’s at, or just the poster bundle in general quite honestly.
If you’re not bothered about opening packs and just want 151 chase cards, here’s some of my favorites as well.
This Week’s Pokémon TCG Crashers and Climbers
It’s becoming abundantly clear that buying up singles on the Pokémon TCG collector market is the way forward for trainers right now. Some chase cards that have crashed recently are cheaper than some overpriced booster bundles currently.
Some of the prices above look crazy, but some of them we’re nearly double just a couple of weeks ago, with the latter 5 cards climbing higher and higher. If your heart is set on ripping open booster packs, let’s get into the best way to do just that without destroying your life savings (much).
More Pokémon TCG Sealed Products
If you’re desperate for some big box retailer products, here you go. Just make sure to be savvy before buying, as 9 times out of 10 TCG Player will be cheaper in this climate.
DOOM: The Dark Ages Limited Edition A3 Art Print
This hand-numbered A3 art print is limited to 995 copies and features Slayer in all his demon-destroying glory.
It’s printed in the UK on high quality paper, includes a certificate of authenticity, and ships in July 2025.
If you’re already excited for DOOM The Dark Ages, this is the first official piece of merch up for preorder.
MTG Final Fantasy Preorders
Meanwhile preorders for Magic the Gathering: Final Fantasy are still up at Walmart and Amazon, specifically the Bundle and Starter Kit for retail pricing.
This is set to be the biggest MTG set in the history of the trading card game, so it’s a wise choice to preorder now. You can also preorder single cards at the moment too:
MTG FF Single Card Prices Before Launch
I’ve focused on some of the more popular character appearances here, but there’s plenty more to secure with this set having nearly 700 cards including Extended Art, Boarderless and Surge Foil variants.
The worst thing you can do as a Magic or FF fan is to sleep on this set, it’s going to explode. These are the current biggest cards in the set before launch on June 5.
Bear in mind it’s mega risky to buy before release day, as prices could plummit in the meantime. Still, it’s worth keeping an eye on what’s hot, and what’s not!
T1D Breakthrough Bundle
This Humble Bundle packs nine games tied to creators with Type 1 diabetes, and your purchase supports Breakthrough T1D, formerly JDRF.
You’ll get narrative-heavy hits like Batman: The Enemy Within and The Walking Dead alongside indie favorites like Never Alone and Sam and Max Save the World.
At just ten dollars for the full bundle, it’s an easy way to support a good cause while picking up a solid collection.
Nintendo Switch 2 Accessories Sale
Did you manage to grab a Nintendo Switch 2 preorder in? If so you’ll want to protect that tarrif-dodging investment at all costs. Luckily I’ve got the best cases, screen protectors and thumb grips on the market right now.
TZGZTs case and screen protector bundle is great value for money at $12.84 and is a consistent best seller.
Looking for cases that will fit inside a Switch 2 dock? JSAUX has us all covered with some option alongside some premium cases and hardshells.
I’ve included JSAUX as i’ve been hands on with the products above and can’t reccomend them enough.
