One Poster Sale in Four Days, and It Came In Low: Market Signals 2026-10-14

Four of the five pages have no rows dated October 10 through 13. Their prints and asks are identical to Tuesday. The one sale that did land is the lowest Poster row of the month, and the listing may not even be a full sealed box. One odd row on a thin tape is not a new price. Hold your Poster number where October's clean sales put it.

The [Poster Collection](https://www.pricecharting.com/game/pokemon-30th-celebration/poster-collection) print is $40.13, unchanged. The new row is October 12, eBay, $28.00, titled "Box w/ Poster & Promo." The title doesn't say sealed and doesn't mention the three booster packs. That matters on this page: September 27 already has a $12.99 row that was just the three bird promos.

The other October rows: $34.00 (October 9, TCGPlayer), $50.02 (October 5, eBay), $40.00 (October 4, TCGPlayer), $36.00 and $39.00 (October 2, eBay). $28 sits $6 under the lowest of them.

Sellers didn't flinch. The TCGPlayer ask moved up to $38.75 from $37.35, +$1.40. If you're buying, $34 to $40 is where listings that clearly read as full boxes have cleared this month. Treat $28 as a floor marker until a clean sealed sale confirms it.

- Booster Bundle: print $81.70, TCGPlayer ask $73.03, both unchanged. Newest sale still October 9 at $66.38 - Sylveon ex Box: print $59.99, TCGPlayer ask $62.89, both unchanged. Newest sale October 9 at $62.50 - Elite Trainer Box: print $165.52, TCGPlayer ask $138.30, PriceCharting ask $140.00 with free shipping, all unchanged. Newest sale October 9 at $144.96 - Knock Out Collection: print $29.50, PriceCharting ask $25.67 with free shipping, TCGPlayer ask $27.79, all unchanged. Newest sale October 9 at $22.00

Print = PriceCharting's algorithm number at the top of the page. Asks = what the "Loose Price" box showed when we read it. **Asks, not sales, not MSRP.**

We've seen a gap like this before. After a blank day, the Bundle page backfilled four single-box sales at once on October 8. So read this as slow posting, not as nobody buying, until the gap runs longer than that one did.

pokemon.cn posted an event notice on October 13 for its next 嗨皮组合 multiplayer set, 「嗨皮组合 训练家的宝可梦」. It's a simplified Chinese product that goes on sale October 16 at 10:00 Beijing time, which is the same clock as Singapore. The [product page](https://www.pokemon.cn/tcg/product/23939.html) spells out what's inside and the odds:

- ¥88 MSRP. Four 60-card decks: Team Rocket's Mewtwo ex, Cynthia's Garchomp ex, Misty's Gyarados, Ethan's Typhlosion. Plus seven 2-card packs, one 10-card upgrade pack and one 1-card reward pack. - A single random deck sells separately at ¥20 MSRP. - Either way, a deck has a 1.6% chance of being the holo version. Same cards, different finish. - 2-card pack odds: 88.45% non-holo, 10.5% Poké Ball pattern holo, 1.05% Master Ball pattern holo, 49 cards in each tier. - Snorlax ex shows up in 3.1% of upgrade packs. Reward packs hit a Pokémon ex holo 12.5% of the time; the rest are basic Energy holos.

Those are MSRPs, not market prices, and there's no tape until Friday. The chase is the holo deck and the Master Ball pattern cards. The page doesn't say whether a holo deck can be spotted from outside the box, so any "holo deck" listing needs photos of the actual cards before you pay up for it.

- Japan: extra entries for the 30th CELEBRATION Osaka day-two pass close today at 12:00 JST (11:00 Singapore), per the October 9 official notice. - China: [City League season 4, batch 6](https://www.pokemon.cn/tcg/event/24121.html) team results come out today. Individual entry closes at 23:59 tonight Beijing time, results October 15. Events run October 17 and 18. Batch 5 events run through October 15. - China: 嗨皮组合 训练家的宝可梦 on sale October 16, 10:00. - Santa Cruz blind-bag boards: October 17, three days out. - Deck Crafter's Collection: October 23. - Delta Reign prereleases October 24 to November 1. Set release November 6. - Espeon ex and Umbreon ex Battle Decks: October 30.

No 30th Celebration submissions are back, so there's still no pop to read. If that $28 Poster box was opened, it tells you nothing about what the bird promos grade out at. On the China set, nothing is in anyone's hands until Friday. The Master Ball pattern holos are the only plausible grading candidates there, and only after you've checked centering and holo surface in hand.
