A strategic Pokémon grading play that turned roughly £300 (including grading fees) into an estimated £1,500+ in resale value.
Perfect Order was announced as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game’s Mega Evolution-era releases, with products made available directly through the Pokémon Centre in the UK. The release attracted immediate attention due to unique Pokémon Centre-exclusiveCentre packaging, particularly for the Elite Trainer Box, which featured alternative box art compared to standard retail versions.
At the time of release, no full card list had been disclosed, which added speculative demand to sealed products. Early market behaviour reflected a familiar Pokémon Centre pattern, where limited preorder availability and exclusive packaging drove secondary pricing shortly after release.
The Perfect Order release included multiple sealed formats sold via Pokémon Centre.
Elite Trainer Boxes (ETBs) retailed at ~£55 and traded between £80–£90 early.
Booster Bundles retailed at ~£26 and resold for around £40.
Booster Boxes retailed at ~£120 and reached ~£180 on the secondary market.
Early demand was driven by Pokémon Centre-exclusive packaging and limited preorder availability.

The Perfect Order release followed a familiar Pokémon Center-exclusive pattern, where early sealed availability and unique packaging supported strong initial resale pricing. ETBs showed the clearest premium due to exclusive artwork, while Booster Boxes and Bundles benefited from broader sealed demand.
As with most Pokémon releases, post-release price stability depended on wider retail supply and set reception once cards were fully revealed. Early market behaviour provided clear demand signals, but longer-term performance remained sensitive to print volume and collector sentiment.
