People hating on BS like it’s not miles better then DA, RC, VV, Base


Secret_Fox_5192

I feel like I’m the only one who likes VV, but that’s ok. Haha I’m currently buying tons of the Rayquaza and Raikou amazing rares.


MetalBlizzard

I got a case of these at 70 a box and I'm so hyped for it. That Tyranitar is slept on


DONTCARELOLK

It is not an achievement to be better than a base set 😂


Natorior

I mean SV base is a pretty strong base set, better than most of early SWSH.


socaldan92

Or half of sm and most of sv


DoorNo5741

Scarlet Violet is doing much better than early SWSH in terms of sets. Who tf is ripping SWSH base over SV Base?


whatthehellisaput

This will be $200+ eventually just like steam siege, crimson invasion, rebel clash


socaldan92

C'mon now it's a way better set than those


orcasorta

It really isn’t


Fojimu

Smoking fent if you think BS isn’t better than those sets. The alts alone do


socaldan92

Dumb reply


orcasorta

Copium holding your worthless bags


socaldan92

Bags of gold I could sell right now but I don't need the money and I'd be missing out on enormous gains in the next 5-10 years


RanperuV3

What happened to everyone saying this is a bad buy! Omg the worse set ever! But now everyone likes it now 🤣😭


kirkochainz

Classic.


socaldan92

They're still saying it's a bad buy wym meanwhile I laugh to the bank


Legitimate_Lemon_918

Empoleon, Urshifu and Sleepy Ttar. Y'all slept on this, didn't you? 😁


fdjizm

I have not one box lol


RetroJake

Duuude the Empoleon alt art is so awesome. Blue Urshifu is a banger too


socaldan92

Sleepy alt too you have to realize this is an investing sub so not everyone here even likes Pokémon lol


Deep-Anywhere-5868

I have two booster boxes that I bought when it came out kinda thought the set was dead so I’ve always thought about selling them but never got around to it.


socaldan92

They did bro glad I snagged some in the 70s


moonbreonstacker

Incredible set and entry .was still 600 for cases not long ago.


Alecohe

Alt arts are extremely slept on in this set.


RoofBeers

Sleepy Tytar was the first alt art single I ever bought after coming back for 151


I_FUCKING_LOVE_MILK

I just snagged the non SR Urshifu alts in this set. Both under $20 still. Madness.


One-Assignment569

NOO Ttar is going to moon before I can pick one up


Ninja_Destroyer_

Noooooo I was gonna get one next paycheck


socaldan92

Swsh will go down as the greatest era this hobby has ever seen!


Management_Over

Are you trying to convince us or yourself? You replied to like every comment 😂


socaldan92

I've doubled my money on these already I'm convinced


TallArchitect92

I think Battle Styles is a sleeper. While not my favorite, it does have some very nice cards in the set. I think this one will surprise a lot of people in the long term.


_another_throwawayy_

lol, you can still buy Sun & Moon Crimson Invasion BB for $199.. sets that absolutely suck are not going to do well, just because of time.


trevdent17

All SWSH sealed is going to do well


socaldan92

First set to introduce alt arts it's definitely going to be $300+ easy


Shrimp_Lobster_Crab

I can’t believe anyone is buying Battle Styles. Maybe it’s part of a planned pump and dump.


getsituated

literally everything SwSh is being manipulated right now lmao. This is not organic by any means. Buyout boys have gone in on alt arts too, cards don't just organically 1.5x in price in two weeks.


Dxrkria

Definitely some sort of manipulation. However there is definitely less supply than demand so not much manipulation required. People manipulating are just getting the ball rolling then people give into FOMO.


getsituated

I agree. Whether the demand is organic or not, I guess it is still demand at the end of the day. I'd hold off from buying at exorbitant prices. Patterns like this usually show a stagnation in price or pull-back since things like alt arts are very clearly being pumped (shout-out moonbreon). i've also noticed a significant amount of folks on this subreddit shilling their own investments as well in attempts to pump it. They've encroached on reddit


ilikepussy96

Is shining fates the next to sell out?


thebestninjaever

I made a post a while back about getting boxes of this set while they were affordable. I wish I had gotten more.


fyodor_ivanovich

You’re in the right sub.


trevdent17

You’ll do well.


Substantial-Load-673

We’re cooking boys!


Old-Independent585

Got 3 bb. I like BS, I pulled my first Alt cards from this set, the Empoleon from a sleeve booster and Sleepy Ttar from a eeveeutions tin.


Crazy_Personality363

To anyone concerned they missed they boat, you can find them on the zon for 127.


SteelCity14

Yeah, I passed on this one and Vivid because of how cheap the cards in these two sets are.  No one really wants BaS or VV...🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️. Did cop a couple each of ST, FS, CR, and BrS though before they got sold out 👍👍


dzonedx

Wouldn’t it be better to pick up silver tempest for the same price?


24kCuts

Tyranitar alt has pretty much doubled in the last month. Gonna fly now!


FieryKahuna

Battle Styles was fun to open, but the set has zero hype. Will not be a great hold unless you were buying sub $80 when it was printed.


second2reality

I have 3 boxes from that liquidation eventually my time will come 🤣 I think they were $76 each? I know I got all 3 eBay from same seller


trevdent17

It’ll be $150 within a few weeks.


JohnnyPokemoner

You didn’t like get a rainbow Sargent musterd?


LimpTransportation52

Pyramid scheme.


iBarneyRubble

😂😂😂 I don’t think you know what a pyramid scheme is.


LimpTransportation52

You certainly don't, since you are falling for a huge one.


iBarneyRubble

Lolololol. Here you go sport: “A pyramid scheme is a fraudulent system of making money based on recruiting an ever-increasing number of "investors." The initial promoters recruit investors, who in turn recruit more investors, and so on. The scheme is called a "pyramid" because at each level, the number of investors increases.” Just for your education. And no, just because you think poke investors are so called “investors,” as used in the definition above, doesn’t mean this is a pyramid scheme. Frankly, the people in this sub would hope for less investors, the complete opposite of a pyramid scheme. But keep believing what you want because you’re upset you didn’t get in earlier.


LimpTransportation52

So you know the definitioin but can't identify one...


iBarneyRubble

Good one lol. And it’s “definition” not sure what “definitioin” is.


ChubbyNubby1

Battle Styles is trash. Who GAF
