Crimson Invasion: rip it or buy it?
Completing Crimson Invasion as singles (about $206 minus the chases) costs less than a box's worth of packs (~$639, mostly dupes) — so buy the singles you actually want. Heads up: this set's sealed product trades as an appreciated collectible (~$17.74/pack), so "ripping" really means cracking a collector item — singles are the practical play.
Buy the singles.
- A box's worth of packs: ~$639 (cheapest sealed unit is the booster box at $639).
- Complete the set minus chases, as singles: $206 — ripping a box runs ~$433 more.
- Top chase — Gyarados GX (Secret) — Secret Rare: $79 as a single vs. ~$1,900 to crack for one (est.).
