Pitch Black: rip it or buy it?
Ripping is the cheaper path here — about $189 for a box's worth of packs vs. about $207 to buy the bulk as singles — so rip, then top off the few you're missing.
Rip, then fill the gaps.
- A box's worth of packs: ~$189 (cheapest sealed unit is the booster box at $189).
- Complete the set minus chases, as singles: $207 — ripping a box runs ~$18 less, but it's a gamble.
- Top chase — Mega Darkrai ex - 116/084 — Special Illustration Rare: $255 as a single vs. ~$570 to crack for one (est.).
