Now, a luckyPokemon TCGfan called Sushioko has shared a picture of a ridiculously expensive collection of booster packages they found at a garage sale a few days ago. According to the fan, they were in Dallas when they saw a garage sale sign, and then purchased some “assorted packs” from a woman. She said her son had gone off to college, and she was selling some of his old objects, so the Redditor claims to have only paid $40 for the full package. When they opened it, they saw at least 36 rare and considerably old sealed booster packs, including cards from collections such as Hidden Legends, Legend Maker, Jungle Booster, XY, Diamond & Pearl, and others. When sold online, thesevaluablePokemon TCGbooster packswould likely fetch thousands of dollars at the very least.

In the post’s comments, most gamers were either impressed with the OP’s luck or doubted the truth of the story. In one comment, Sushioko even claimed they would return to the place and offer the cards back for a reasonable price, but they seem to have gone back on this idea in a later comment. In any case, it’s impossible to confirm whether this is a real story, as Sushioko didn’t provide any actual proof of what happened, so it’s better to take the whole story with a grain of salt.

Despite these events being rare, it’s not completely uncommon for gamers to find excellentPokemon TCGdeals at garage sales. Some time ago, onefan found a crate full ofPokemon TCGcards at a yard sale for only $5.

On another occasion, onePokemon TCGfan spent $50 on reverse holo Dark Blastoise #4at a garage sale. With the card being worth up to $3,200, it was a very lucky find.
