I just got some XY Promos in from Troll&Toad this morning, and while the cards were in great nick (Besides XY01 - XY03, the cards had a bit of a bend in them, but nothing some time in a top loader won't fix), I was shocked that they put them all in one envelope, with no sleeves or anything. The only reason I bought from them was because I couldn't find those Fennekin, Froakie and Chespin promos anywhere else. I won't be in a rush to get them from there again.
One place I've had good experiences with, even though I've heard they have a bad reputation when it comes to stealing images, is CardTeam. I've bought promo boxes and singles from them and they've been perfect. Bubble-wrapped envelopes, cards in sleeves in toploaders. They take precautions which I like.
I'm thinking of getting a Furious Fists box for my birthday, and I live in Ireland, so retailers that sell boxes aren't readily available. Does anyone have any advice, or will I just stick with CardTeam?
