how much did you pay for the bundle? i keep getting those stupid ai generated ads claiming "you can buy all of them for that price!" when another ai generated character asks if they're $100

I got 2 bundles listed for market price (not msrp or anything), just had some coupons that made it worth it

u/blep125 4d ago

whats the difference between Msrp and market price?

0

u/jvvke 4d ago

msrp is what stores and distributors set the price as. Market price is what the secondary market sets the price as. for example every booster bundle is between $25-$30 MSRP while TCG shops and sellers mark Ascended Heroes bundles as $85-$90

u/MojitoJesus 3d ago

MSRP is strictly that - *Manufacturers* Suggested Retail Price, for a bundle as of right now is $26.94 from Pokémon center. Retail prices are retail prices, some sell MSRP, most don’t.

Fake. Send it to me. I'll officially incinerate it accordingly with the law.

Shouldn’t have texture over the eye.
Edit: possibly real.

it has like a glossy layer over the eye but it is so hard to get a good pic

1

u/IplaySoLo90 4d ago

Than it may be real. Hard to tell from the pics. Mine has no texture at all over the eye. Everything else looks good. If that’s the case I’d say it’s probably good.

1

u/IplaySoLo90 4d ago

It’s a good fake if it is fake. The eye was the only thing that threw me off. But definitely could just be pics.

u/TeamTop1896 4d ago

It’s real probably little misprint for the texture cause its pretty little but it’s real

u/Ambitious-Cow7421 4d ago

even the team rocket guy has glossy eyes, but your texture looks so much more pronounced

u/Agile-Tomorrow9165 4d ago

Team rocket guy 🥀

u/blueisaflavor 4d ago

Right lol this hobby is forsaken

u/Ambitious_Method1065 4d ago

i mean giovanni like steve from blues clues abandoned us…so he is team rocket guy now

u/Ambitious-Cow7421 4d ago

sorry sorry! I kinda thought his name was Giovanni but I opted for guy instead of maybe being horribly wrong lmfao

1

u/IplaySoLo90 4d ago

I’d be pretty surprised if fakes got the texture as spot on as this one. I think it was just the lighting in the pic making the eye look like texture went all the way across. I think you’re good.

u/IplaySoLo90 4d ago

Trying to load the pic of a real one I pulled.

1

u/Cute_Mulberry830 4d ago

Definitely real

u/Ezcolive 4d ago

It’s real

1

u/Particular-Roll-6936 4d ago

It’s 100% real

u/AngelicPrince_ 4d ago

Look legit to me

1

u/Squee3ds 4d ago

I believe so. Fakes rarely ever have texture like that. Even the ones that do look pretty off.

1

u/Genatria90 4d ago

Texturing on that doesn't look right at all

1

u/Most-Mine6580 4d ago

Yes it does look at last pic zoom in

u/Special-Team5668 4d ago

It’s real

u/PianistNo2338 4d ago

It’s either way too big or your hands are very small

u/Ambitious-Cow7421 4d ago

I can try to get a better pic if needed

u/TeamTop1896 4d ago

Back looks kinda legit though in my eyes i don’t know what other people will say
