Booster Deal of the Week: Two 3 booster blister pack openings

I just purchased two 3 booster blister packs from Target yesterday.  If you read my last post, you'll see that I pulled I pulled a holo German Shiftry! wtf!? It's a sweet card but I really have no use for a German card.  So I contacted Pokemon and am waiting for a reply.

Other notable pulls from these blisters were Wash Rotom from Rising Rivals, an EX Crystal Guardians shining star Alakazam, and a few other rares.

Any time you can purchase boosters for $3.33 per pack, especially if you can get older EX booster which fetch over 4 dollars online and in specialty stores, is a great deal.
Cost Grade: A+
Pull Grade: B+

German Card in Rising Rivals Booster

Today I purchased two 3 booster blister packs from Target.  My intention was to open them on YouTube but I was too impatient.  But while opening my third pack, I pulled a German Shiftry! I have contacted Pokemons customer support and am looking forward to hearing back from them.  Has this happened to anyone else?  Reply and let me know what you got.

So I just recieved an automated message from Pokmon International regarding the German Shiftry.  The message states that they will "respond to my inquiries as soon as possible" or essentially as soon as a real person, not a computer, reads my message.

TCG Checklist

I have stumbled upon a nice checklist for the Pokemon TCG. http://www.cardgameorganizer.com/trading_card_games/pokemon-ccg  I'm sure some of you have seen this or something similar before.  Using these checklists and the printable PDF checklists from http://www.pokemon.com/us/trading-cards/series/ , you can have a printable version of every set released.  I haven't found anything yet which is up-to-date with every set, promo set etc. in a printable or spreadsheet fasion on one site, but if you all find anything please share!

Booster Deal of the Week

The best place to get a booster this week is at Target.  Target is selling blister booster packs of two EX, Diamond and Pearl, or Platinum booster with a random reverse holo from the mentioned sets for $6.99.  Anything below $3.99 per pack is a great deal, especially if you can get an older EX booster which sometimes sell for well over $4.00 per pack.  The two boosters I recieved was a EX: Power Keeper and DP: Mysterious Treasures and the revese holo was a basic Secret Wonders Charmander.  Overall the pulls were subpar with a Reverse Holo  Rare Multi Energy and a Holo Banette.

Cost Grade: A
Pull Grade: C
