The Pokémon TCGs Mega Charizard X ex Ultra-Premium Collection is under $170 at Amazon
TL;DR: The Pokémon TCG: Mega Charizard X ex Ultra-Premium Collection is on sale for $169.99 at Amazon.
Last year was one of the biggest examples of how low stock and fluctuating prices can make the trading card market tough to navigate. Now the dust has settled, we're seeking the best deals.
The Pokémon TCG’s Mega Charizard X ex Ultra-Premium Collection is one of the best ways to get boosters from various sets and other key accessories. Still, the low units available mean this must-have collection has been subject to massive price hikes ever since it came out alongside the Phantasmal Flames set. Thankfully, new price cuts through various Amazon sellers have brought it down to closer to market value.
As of Jan. 8, the Pokémon TCG: Mega Charizard X ex Ultra-Premium Collection has had 32% taken off its $249.99 list price, dropping down to $169.99. For comparison, the lowest price for the Mega Charizard X ex Ultra-Premium Collection is $167.96 on TCGplayer at the time of writing, but the lowest listing’s extra cost required for shipping means you’d need to spend more in total — making Amazon the go-to retailer right now.
In exchange for that lower price tag, the Mega Charizard X ex Ultra-Premium Collection gives you a mix of 18 Pokémon TCG boosters from recent sets that have been hard to find: four Phantasmal Flames, four Mega Evolution, four Destined Rivals, four Journey Together, and two Surging Sparks packs. In addition, you’ll get a foil promo card each of Mega Charizard ex and Oricoco ex, 65 Mega Charizard ex card sleeves, a Mega Charizard X playmat, a Mega Charizard X deck box, a matching metal coin, six damage counter dice, and a code card for Pokémon TCG Live.
If you’ve been out of the Pokémon game for a while and want to see what the latest sets are about before playing again, this is the perfect collection for diving back in. If it’s more cards from a specific set you’re after, you can still get a Pokémon TCG: Mega Evolution Phantasmal Flames Elite Trainer Box for around $88 at Amazon, along with the Phantasmal Flames Booster Display Box down to market value.
