Amazon has restocked the Pokémon TCG: Prismatic Evolutions Surprise Boxes today at $59.99, sparking a lively debate within the trading card game community. On one side, you have the MSRP vigilants who believe the box should stay at its original price of $22.99. On the other side, some are willing to pay the "Market Price" of $59.99. As these boxes are sold and shipped by Amazon, they fall into the market price category, which is significantly higher than the MSRP.
The box includes one of nine randomly selected foil promo cards with a special logo. While the box itself is attractive and contains stamped versions of the Eeveelution ex cards—Eevee ex, Vaporeon ex, Jolteon ex, Flareon ex, Espeon ex, Umbreon ex, Leafeon ex, Glaceon ex, or Sylveon ex—the randomness of receiving just one card per box can be a gamble. At $59.99, the price may not be justified for those simply looking to open packs and hope for their favorite Eeveelution. However, it could still make a nice gift for fans of the series.

The Prismatic Evolutions Surprise Box has garnered attention among IGN's Daily Deals readers, yet it's important to weigh the value before making a purchase. If you're solely after the promo cards, consider buying them as singles from trusted retailers like TCGPlayer. Here are some of the top Prismatic Evolutions cards available today:

If your main interest lies in the promo cards, purchasing them individually could be more cost-effective. The priciest card, Umbreon, is available at the same price as one Surprise Box, while the others are well under $20. With the cost of two to three Surprise Boxes, you could potentially complete the entire collection.

The chase cards from Prismatic Evolutions, such as the Umbreon SIR, have seen significant price drops since their release, with Umbreon now at $1100—a decrease of about $500. Other chase cards have also fallen below the $500 mark, with the Roaring Moon ex SIR at $221. These prices might continue to fall as attention shifts, but they currently represent good value given the recent market trends.
The Prismatic Evolutions expansion for Scarlet & Violet has driven a surge in interest due to its challenging pull rates and limited availability.
