100 Assorted Pokemon Trading Cards.

I collected Pokemon cards as a kid back in the 90's. Recently I decided to start collecting again.I bought from the seller Cardrushstore. I cannot vouch for any of the other sellers. Here is what I found:-Every single card was in new condition.-I had no rares, only commons with a few uncommons thrown in.-Out of 100 cards, only 13 were duplicates, and no energy cards were included (yay!).-Six cards were reverse holos. Very shiny :)-The majority of the cards were Pokemon. Less than 12 were Trainer and Support cards.-Shipping was fast, and my package was trackable.I do not recommend this to anyone who seriously plays the game. None of the cards had great stats, and the majority of the Pokemon were basic. I also do not recommend this to someone who has been collecting Pokemon cards for a while, as one probably will not receive many uncommon or rare cards.I do recommend this set to someone starting a collecting from scratch. Great variety!I also think this would be a good set to use as party favors or something similar. If purchasing this set for kids, talk to them first and figure out if they want just a bunch of cards, or are looking for rarer ones. 100 copies of cards someone already has is pretty useless.

(Backstory-- These were purchased as a 7th birthday present for my son and his first collection of any type of cards. He only had 2 Pokémon cards his friends had given him so I wanted to start his set off with what I hoped would be enough cards to play with/ collect) I originally was going to give this purchase 3 stars, but after consideration I felt 5 stars was appropriate. I received exactly the product I purchased. These cards came in a zipped baggie free of any sealed wrappers which initially was a bummer in having to present them to my son for a birthday present as individual cards rather then in their nostalgic wrappers but that was how the order displayed them so I was expecting that. The cards came in perfect condition no obvious signs of the cards ever being handled (no bent corners/warped cards) which I was surprised about when opening the package. The obvious reason for this deal after going through the cards was to take out any card of recognition or value and bundle the cards to resell. This was expected going into this purchase, so I really didn't have any hard feelings about that once I confirmed it. The look on my sons face when he opened a his presents and pulled out 106 cards was priceless!! So I was extremely pleased with the purchase. What I received was exactly what the order said it would be so for that reason I felt it deserved 5 stars.

I did receive exactly 100 cards and is one of the few sellers to offer prime delivery and sell these cards for such a fair price. I went through all 100 cards to see how many cards of each series I got, and how many duplicates.Let me preface that none of the cards were rare or of higher value. These cards were common or uncommon cards. These cards also had little to no marks to indicate they were used.Arguably, you get what you pay for from this seller. These cards would be suitable for someone new to the game or someone who simply likes to collect the cards.6 cards are duplicates (duplicates being the exact same card from the exact same set), and 13 total, as I had a card that came with two additional duplicates.For the amount of cards per series:44 of the cards received were from the Sword & Shield base set.16 were from the Forbidden Light set16 were from the Hidden Fates set9 were from the Cosmic Eclipse set7 were from the Ultra Prism set3 were from the Guardians Rising set3 were from the Unified Minds set1 was from the Steam Siege set1 was from the Breakpoint set.

I think the phrase "You get what you pay for," applies perfectly for this lot of Pokemon Cards. I will start off by saying that I did, indeed, recieve exactly 100 Pokemon Cards with only two of them being first edition, plus an extra 6 Foil Cards. This is a good lot of cards for a relatively cheap price. Don't expect to be able to build an effective deck out of this alone, or even a deck at all. This lot works best as a small addition to someone's collection or a great start to a new one. Out of all of the cards I recieved, only two of them were damaged, and the damage on these two cards, while noticeable, was not that significant. Also, I did recieve a significant number of duplicates, 42, to be exact. That said, this is can certainly be worth the $16 it costs, depending on the person and what they're buying it for.I will now list the exact cards that I recieved and list the Bonus Foil Cards.Regarding the 6 Foil Cards, let me say that they are not "Promo" cards, the 6 cards that I recieved were in no way, "Promotional Cards". They were simply a few common and uncommon cards that were all Reverse Holo. This means that the area around the picture was Holo, not the picture itself.
