1. Open ONE pack to check the legitimacy of the cards. Then sell the rest of the packs loose (as previously stated, you should expect to get around $150 for each). This way guarantees the legitimacy of the cards and guarantees that you'll make a solid chunk of money as there are always people looking to buy these packs (just don't flood the market with them by putting more than 3-5 up at a time).

If it's English, and of course legit, the packs alone go for $150-200 apiece making an entire box very valuable.

*blinks* ... ... wait what? 200$ for ONE pack? WHAT. Who would spend- you gotta be kidding me last I checked it was only 25$ for a seal- *sees ebay selling some for 200$* Oh.

... ... ... wow. WOOOOOW. And here I was thinking you could make only 800$ off that thing. I must have been looking at the unlimited packs. That is nutso. You'd make 10x the amount I stated.

Man if I had that baby, I could finish getting some old boxes in no time. xP

Do you have all 36 packs in an unsealed box? If so, you should do one of two things:

Whatever you do, don't open the packs
. It's not worth it at all. For the price you can sell them sealed, you can go buy a whole 1st edition set and still have a good amount of money left over.
Wait.. what?


I meant to say don't open ALL the packs :p
