To our Pokémon community:
Pokémon's 30th Anniversary Set is almost here! There are a few things that are different for this release so please make sure to read this so you are informed!
When is it releasing?
The first wave of product is marked for release on September 16th however, the Pokémon Company has given strict rules to distribution channels that the product can NOT arrive to stores prior to the 16th. We are delaying when we will be putting it on sale - assuming the product does show up on the 16th, we will be putting it on sale starting on Friday September 18th at 10am.
What will it cost?
This set has a lot of demand, we know this. There are a lot of you that want to open it and a ton more who want to hoard it to resell later. At Halcyon, we have always prioritized people who want to experience the joy of opening a product and chasing the hits over people who want to flip the product. As the world keeps evolving and it gets harder and harder to make sure our product is getting to people who will enjoy it, we've decided to implement a new pricing structure. Starting with the 30th anniversary set, we will begin offering two different pricing tiers. One for allowing us to break the shrink wrap/glue and one for keeping the product sealed. I'm aware this is a very polarizing decision and it's one that I've been hesitant to pull the trigger on, but recent experiences have given me no choice. Attached below is an image showing all of the prices for this set release. I do not know at this time if we will continue this practice going into Delta Reign, that info will come later.
Thank you everyone for being a great community. As always, you'll find me on the front lines fighting to make sure you have a fair and equal opportunity at product. If you have any questions/comments/concerns/suggestions, our DMs are always open or you can ping me in the Discord. Thank you everyone and good luck Catching Them All!
