Amazon has restocked several products from the Pokémon Trading Card Game's "Pitch Black" expansion, including Elite Trainer Boxes and booster sets. This Mega Evolution expansion, which focuses on Ghost and Dark-type Pokémon, features over 115 cards and introduces new Mega Evolutions.
The Pitch Black Elite Trainer Box, originally retailing for $119.99, is available for $94.86, a discount of over $25. Each Elite Trainer Box includes nine Pokémon booster packs, 65 card sleeves, 45 Pokémon TCG Energy cards, a player's guide, damage-counter dice, a coin-flip die, two condition markers, a collector's box with dividers, and a code card for Pokémon Trading Card Game Live.
Booster Bundles, containing six Pitch Black packs, are priced at $49.94, approximately $8.32 per pack. The Pitch Black Booster Display sets, which include 36 booster packs, are being offered at $229.95, down from the list price of $279.99. This brings the per-pack cost to around $6.38, representing a more significant saving for those purchasing in larger quantities.
The "Pitch Black" expansion itself focuses on dark and eerie themes, highlighted by Mega Darkrai ex. The set includes a total of 6 Mega Evolution Pokémon ex, 4 Pokémon ex, 11 Illustration Rare Pokémon, 18 Ultra Rare Pokémon and Trainer cards, 6 Special Illustration Rares, over 20 Trainer cards, and more than 35 cards with special illustrations. Early data suggests that the Mega Darkrai ex Mega Hyper Rare card is a significant chase item within the set, with a secondary market price noted at $996.69 during the first week of release.
While these restocked prices from Amazon are noted to be above the original MSRP for some items, they are presented as a more accessible option for those who prefer purchasing new from major retailers with fast delivery, compared to resale markets. The products are sold and shipped directly by Amazon, not third-party sellers.
