Neo Destiny Booster Box

[PokeManx]

Hey guys, new to this forum. Recently just got back into the cards, after watching PrimetimePokemon vids on youtube. Over the last couple of months I've bought Team Rocket booster packs, and just the other week, purchased a Team Rocket Booster box, which I won't be opening!


Anyhow, whilst I was looking on ebay for boxes, I noticed people wanted thousands for a Neo Destiny box, and I can't find that many. What's the reason for this?


Was it because the series was so popular? Or did they not print as many? You would think there would be more than Base Set, as Base Set is the older set.

Well, Neo wasn't as collected because the craze was starting to settle down at the time of its release. Although it sounds like these are 1st Edition boxes you're looking at based on their prices.

And, ya know, shining pokemon.

Yeah, Destiny had the first ultra rare shiny pokes, with this epic holographic style, I was lucky to pull one of these from my first japanese pack:

I actually have a shining Celebi, they sell reasonably well on ebay. Thanks donavvanj!
