Will Prismatic Evolutions ETBs Go Over $100?

Will Prismatic Evolutions ETBs go over $100? Yes, eventually, is the answer to that question.

Prismatic Evolutions ETBs absolutely could go over $100 due to a couple of factors.

One factor is hype. Prismatic Evolutions is even more hyped up than 151 in my opinion. I do not know why. Maybe people are bored or maybe the fact that it’s a special set is drawing people towards the perceived value that they can get out of it. But that’s it, it’s a hyped up set. And considering 151 ETBs are selling for almost $100 I’d guess that achieving $100 per ETB for Prismatic Evolutions is not out of the question.

The second factor is that 151 and Prismatic Evolutions will not get the reprints people endlessly talk about. I could be wrong though because Pokemon doesn’t do what Magic the Gathering does. In Magic the Gathering Wizards of the Coast all but promise to only do one print run of collector’s booster boxes. Pokemon prints on its own schedule, whatever it wants, whenever it wants, and we have no idea what’s happening. But despite that I just don’t see The Pokemon Company bothering to change their print schedule to go back and reprint special sets. Not getting reprints means skyrocketing prices.

Those two factors, hype and limited print runs, will be the determining factors on whether or not Prismatic Evolutions ETBs eventually hit $100 a piece. I would not “invest” in ETBs regardless of what reddit might have to say but that’s just me. But we’ll have to wait and see where prices head!
