What's the cheapest place to get a booster box from?

^WOW! That's like $23.50 a box. If you do buy Japanese, they do come with less packs.
If you buy ENG, I like Gamingetcstore.com for a seller, I got a box of Platinum for about $90.

No... his came with 36 boosters in them. He was just mad 'cause he pulled 1 Kingdra, and like, 10 trainers. :p

Then he bought fake boxes. That would be why they were so cheap. If it seems to good to be true, it usually is.

EDIT: Learn to spell. "Japaneze" isn't cool; it's asinine.
 
I'd prefer them in English, actually. I keep a few foreign-language cards for novelty (mainly French), but I like using the fully transparent card sleeves when I play.

Frank and Sons? Sounds pretty interesting. I do live in southern California, so I'll check that place out. I can certainly drive to the City of Industry, and I'd like to visit that place myself. Consider me odd, but I'd much rather pay in cash than anything else. It's a purposeful inhibition to my spending, as I can "feel" how much I've been paying for things.

So places like eBay can allow you to pay for insurance when you get to the shipping part? Interesting. So even if the package gets stolen, the insurance can cover for it? That's what I worry about more than misdelivered mail. I live in gang territory, you see, so there are always miscreants and other rapscallions going about.

Correct 20 per booster box,, but it is still worth it if they sell for 23.50 a box ( a little over a dollar a pack).

Oh, Frank & Sons is awesome. I mean, just getting 4 packs for 9 bucks is cool enough.

There's also this lady with tons of single cards who has this wandering eye off to the side. She scares the heck out of me, but she has lots of cool stuff.

(People going to states ransacked the place though)
 
If you do plan to buy online, I always buy from Captiancollect on eBay. He'll work with you on shipping too, just ask him.

Prices are pretty reasonable imo. Free Shipping.
 
He is buying 3 boxes for the price most people buy 1. That doesn't make sense.

Then I'll definitely put this place at the top of my list.

(I hope you mean "ransack" as in they bought practically everything there and not that they STOLE practically everything there.)
 
Talk about it...The school district I went to banned Pokémon cards outright because of all the thievery, threats, and physical harm the kids were doing to each other. It was essentially "Gotta catch 'em all...at any cost."

Yeah, I'm pretty worried about theft and fraud overall, but that's because I live in a place with a high crime rate. Every middle schooler wants to become a gangster, and not just in the hip-hop sense.
 
I live in a rich area and that still is the motive for life. Some people will neva change. Also I dont see the point of people stealing pokemon cards. That really is taking candy from a baby.
 
They steal them because it doesn't cost them any money, I'd reckon. These cards are fairly expensive for a kid, especially since most of them get no money at all from their parents. At the schools I've been to, people get mugged for absolutely no reason. Having valuable stuff on hand is just a bonus.

In the early days of the card game, when news got out that I had a Base Set Blastoise, someone went through the trouble to figure out what my locker combination was and spied on me all day until I put my backpack in it for P.E., which was then ransacked...in the thievery sense. I didn't bring my cards that day though, and later that day, someone found it in a puddle in the boys bathroom with everything wrecked inside. They were angry.

That's how bad it was. That's why the district banned Pokémon cards. It was causing all of this unnecessary violation and violence. I heard worse too, with stuff like threats on kids' lives to take their Charizards and all that. This was like gold treasure in a sea full of pirates.
 
someone once stole my delta {P} sceptile ex, and my {C} altaria ex on the same day in school. I was not :D about it.
