Overview

Costco rolled out the Prismatic Evolutions Mini Tin Set across multiple UK warehouses, and demand spiked immediately. Each bundle included an 8-pack arrangement that collectors recognised as strong value, especially during Q4. Stores that received stock saw fast sell-outs, and early resell prices consistently landed between £145 and £185. Thanks to free in-store returns and predictable Pokémon demand, this provided a clean and low-risk flip for members.

Final Thoughts

The Costco Prismatic Evolutions tin set proved to be one of the cleanest in-store Pokémon flips of the season. With an affordable £62 retail and resell consistently climbing over £120, early buyers enjoyed a near double-up with minimal risk. High demand, free returns, and limited store availability ensured strong performance both immediately and throughout the following weeks.
