Amazon has restocked the Pokémon TCG: Prismatic Evolutions Surprise Boxes today at a price of $59.99. The big question in the TCG community is whether this is a worthwhile purchase. On one side, you have the MSRP purists who believe the box should stick to its original price of $22.99. On the other, there are those willing to pay the current "Market Price" of $59.99. This Surprise Box, sold and shipped directly by Amazon, falls into the market price category, which is significantly higher than the MSRP. The debate surrounding its value is certainly intriguing.
Pokémon TCG: Prismatic Evolutions Surprise Box
Each box includes one of nine randomly selected foil promo cards, each featuring a special logo. While the box itself is attractively designed and offers stamped versions of the popular Eeveelution ex cards—Eevee ex, Vaporeon ex, Jolteon ex, Flareon ex, Espeon ex, Umbreon ex, Leafeon ex, Glaceon ex, or Sylveon ex—the randomness of receiving just one card per box raises concerns about value, especially at the $59.99 price point.
Is it a nice gift? Absolutely. However, for those looking to rip open packs in hopes of finding their favorite Eeveelution, the cost might not justify the gamble.

$150.00 at TCG Player (originally $249.99, save 40%) Spending over a thousand dollars on a Pokémon card might seem extreme, but the Umbreon SIR card has seen a significant price drop to $1100 from its release price. Other chase cards from Prismatic Evolutions have also fallen below the $500 mark, with Roaring Moon ex SIR dropping to $221. These prices could continue to decrease as the year progresses and attention shifts elsewhere, offering a more reasonable entry point into the market.
