After the tumultuous launch of Pokémon TCG: Scarlet & Violet—Journey Together, it's surprising to see how quickly the situation has stabilized. Amazon now offers the Elite Trainer Box at $70.31 and the Booster Bundle at $37.97, both at MSRP. These products, which were once scalped at exorbitant prices, are now readily available, marking a return to normalcy that's almost unheard of in recent TCG releases.

The Elite Trainer Box is packed with value: nine Journey Together booster packs, a full-art foil N’s Zorua, card sleeves, energy, dice, condition markers, and a code card for Live. It also includes a booklet that humorously outlines what you're unlikely to pull. This makes it perfect for both display and a slow-paced opening experience, akin to a tiny cardboard advent calendar of hope.

The ETB exclusive card, N’s Zorua, adds some appeal, but it's the other chase cards that have now reached more reasonable prices. Lillie’s Clefairy ex SIR, though still pricey at $180, is significantly less than its pre-order peak. N’s Zoroark ex is now around $13, and even the stamped version is more affordable than a movie ticket. With prices leveling out, it's a great time to open sealed products without feeling cheated.

The card market for this set has seen a significant decline, making the Booster Bundle an even more attractive purchase. Notable cards like Salamence ex SIR have dropped from $250 to around $106, and Iono’s Bellibolt ex has settled at $8, a stark contrast to its initial hype. This price correction is less favorable for early buyers but great news for those entering the market now.
