I’ve been tracking Pokemon cards for long enough that the words “record low price” almost never pop up, so this Perfect Order deal is… well, a surprise. Actually, the fact that the Elite Trainer Box has hit a record low price on Amazon of $59.99 is enough to make me raise my eyebrows so high they’re in danger of leaving my forehead.
Stock for one of the best card games has been dicey at best for a while now, and that makes any kind of (genuine) offer on Pokemon cards worth getting excited about. As the latest set to hit shelves, Perfect Order has been particularly difficult to come by – so I’m amazed to see its premier box set tumble down to something approaching a reasonable cost.
In terms of whether you should dive into Perfect Order, I’d say it’s well worth a go regardless of whether you’re new to the game or an old veteran at Poke-battles. Despite being a smaller set on the whole, there’s gold hidden away in here. As our very own Poke-expert Christian notes, Perfect Order introduces a Pokemon card everyone will want to use. In addition, it adds new mechanics that set up “some intriguing design space for future expansions.”
It also feels easier to find in stock than other expansions. It’s still incredibly difficult to buy Pokemon TCG Chaos Rising, for example, and there was an alarming rush for the previous set – Ascended Heroes. Meanwhile, I’ve been able to find Perfect Order stock pretty regularly. Just see our guide on where to buy Pokemon TCG Perfect Order if you want to see for yourself.
Will this offer last? I sincerely doubt it. I’d move fast if you want to secure those cards for yourself as a result.
