Best Buy Is Selling Pokémon TCG: Prismatic Evolutions ETBs at MSRP — But You’ll Need An Invite

Seeing that obvious growing issue in the retailer market, that’s likely why Best Buy has been launching sales events like this itself. Instead of paying around $130.50 for a Prismatic Evolutions Elite Trainer Box (its current market price on TCGplayer), you can pay around 62% less if you’re lucky enough.

Said luck is still the most important factor of all here, though, as that essentially determines if you’ll be able to get one of these Pokémon ETBs for yourself.

First, you’ll need a Best Buy account, and you’ll need to be signed in as you select the “Ask for an invite” button on the page.

In the same way as Amazon’s Pokémon invites go out, your invite request will be kept on Best Buy’s system to be in consideration for the next (or future) stock drops the retailer gets for this particular ETB — before randomly selecting who amongst those requesters actually get an invite.

If you do get selected, of which you’ll be notified by email, you’ll have 24 hours to purchase your Prismatic Evolutions ETB before said invite expires. In light of that fairly narrow window, that’s also why Best Buy advises you to download and use the Best Buy app as well, so you can get real-time alert notifications, as well.

Whilst this all means requesting an invite doesn’t guarantee you’ll get selected this time, you’ll at least stay on the list for any future restocks, too, so you don’t need to request one again each time.

As for what you can get when you finally get an invite, the standard Prismatic Evolutions Elite Trainer Box includes nine Prismatic Evolutions booster packs, an exclusive full-art foil Eevee promo card, 65 Eevee-themed sleeves, 45 Energy cards, dice, condition markers, a player's guide, and a collector's storage box.
