flam flawless | Just as the subject says. Looking to get one for a buddy for Xmas (I know, kinda late, but needed to acquire some extra funds and they didn't get in till now). Anyone know of someone with a sealed box they can let go ~$80 shipped? |
nylarotep | Just make a thread in the buying section, see if you get any hits. |
choco man | If there's local tournaments around giving out box(es) for prizes, you can always ask the winner(s). Some spikes will gladly take cash over a box. |

doesn't sound too reasonable of a price tho. Retailers get boxes in the $72-74 range iirc plus they pay shipping. Now add shipping to you on top of that, sounds like a break even or a loss. Troll ebay and hope to get a $90 shipped box and count yourself lucky imo. $95 is more realistic tho. |
flam flawless | $95 is all day on eBay. Idk what boxes cost as I've been outta the game since 5th dawn and at that time, boxes WERE 75-80 all day. |
valorale | Judges at GPs they often get boxes as compensation and would likely be willing to let them go for a little cheaper. |
walkerdog | What is a typical judge payout? 3 boxes? That's about what it would seem like would be reasonable to get someone to work 2 12+ hour days on a weekend... |
valorale | Depends on your level. You get a judge foil pack as well which could be worth hundreds. The higher level you are the more foils you get |
walkerdog | No, I meant box payout per GP or whatever. |

1 a day. Or 1.5 if your L3 or higher, plus foils is the general pay out. There tends to be extras stuff too. Seal event they tend to give you a few stamped draft sets. San jose they gave out an extra box since the turn out ended up being so high. and yes buying them off judges is a good way to go. They tend to sell them for $80 or so when they sell them. They were $100 at San Jose but the set just came out and demand was very high (and dealers can't sell sealed product at Grand Prixs)
