It's time to face the reality that Amazon has seemingly adopted scalping tactics, proudly sporting its Prime badge. The Pokémon TCG: Journey Together Elite Trainer Box is back in stock, but now it's listed at a staggering $99.49, more than double its price just days ago. What's more frustrating is that it's being sold and shipped directly by Amazon. Meanwhile, the much better-value Booster Bundle, which offers six packs without the extra fluff, is tucked away in a separate listing and priced closer to its actual recommended retail price at $37.97. If you're primarily interested in the cards and not the extra 45 energy cards you might already own, opting for the Booster Bundle is the smarter choice. Keep an eye on the Elite Trainer Box, though, as its price seems to fluctuate as unpredictably as a stressed-out Gyarados.

Beyond the questionable pricing strategies from Amazon, there are several other noteworthy deals today. Humble is offering an extensive cosplay book bundle for $18, which includes over 40 guides covering everything from foam armor construction to special effects makeup and pattern collections. It's an outstanding value for both beginners and experienced cosplayers looking to enhance their skills without breaking the bank. Meanwhile, at the IGN Store, fans of Resident Evil can now preorder a meticulously crafted Mother Miranda statue. This large, LED-lit piece is sure to be a haunting addition to any collection, promising to impress through 2026 and beyond.

Amazon's handling of this product has been less than transparent. While the overpriced Elite Trainer Box is listed at an astonishing $99.49, this six-pack bundle remains close to its suggested retail price and is shipped directly from Amazon. It's discreetly placed under a different listing, which feels deliberate, especially considering how quickly the Elite Trainer Box sold out when it was priced below $40 last week.

A single Journey Together pack offers a total mystery. If you just want to open something without overthinking it, this pack gets the job done. It's about as low-risk as it gets in the Pokémon TCG world, unless you're picking up cards off the street.

This is the same box that was selling for around $40 just days ago. Now, it's being offered at the highest price yet, and shockingly, not by third-party resellers but by Amazon itself. You get nine booster packs, a promo card, sleeves, and other extras, but you'd be paying more than double its value. I'd recommend waiting for a price drop before making a purchase.

If you've ever looked at a costume's price and thought, "I could make that," this bundle is your chance to prove it.

It's a treasure trove for both beginners and seasoned cosplayers looking to refine their craft.

I want to say this isn't excessive, but with 18 Stellar Crown booster packs, three promo cards, a playmat, a deck box, and a magnetic card display, it might be. However, in a good way. It's essentially a portable shrine to Terapagos, and somehow, it still feels worth it if you're deeply invested in the hobby.

This bundle contains six packs focused on shiny Pokémon, which could be a collector's dream or a gamble, depending on your luck. In my opinion, the price seems high unless you're specifically hunting for certain cards, but that hasn't deterred collectors before.
