This box trades at $302, 2% below its 1-year high of $309. Price has been broadly stable across the last quarter. That puts it in the upper part of its tracked range. It typically swings about ±4.2% in a month — jumpy for a Pokemon box, so single-digit dips here are mostly noise. Worst tracked stretch: a 14% drawdown from peak; it sits 2% below that peak now.

eBay supply is tightening: active listings are down 10% over the last 60 days (~700 live now). The set's cards are worth about $1,276 — 4.2× the box price, vs a typical 2.9× for Pokemon. That rich multiple adds +1 to the score. Across Pokemon boxes the median 30-day move is -1.2% (32% of boxes up), and this one is running 0.1 points ahead of that pace.

Tightening supply with a price that's holding is the classic setup — rated Buy. It's also pushing into new highs rather than stalling at them: supply is tightening while the price keeps making ground, and the last week hasn't turned down. A squeeze that's still being paid up for is the strongest version of this setup, so being near the high counts for it here, not against it. What would end it: supply refilling (the 60-day drop easing back under 10%), or the 30-day price slipping more than 2%.

Hover (or tap) anywhere on a chart to read the value on that date. The cone is a trend projection, not a prediction: it extends the last 90 days’ trajectory and widens with this box’s typical swing — roughly 2 of 3 outcomes should land inside it, and every projection is logged so we can publish how often that actually holds. Supply readings are eBay active-listing counts (approximate and jittery). Informational only — not financial advice. Reload to refresh.
