It's time to acknowledge that Amazon's pricing tactics on popular items like the Pokémon TCG: Journey Together Elite Trainer Box have taken a turn toward scalping. The box, now back in stock, is listed at an astonishing $99.49—over double its price just a few days ago. What's more frustrating is that this price hike comes directly from Amazon, not third-party sellers. Meanwhile, the more cost-effective Booster Bundle, containing six packs without the extra fluff, is tucked away in a separate listing at a much more reasonable $37.97. If your primary interest is in the cards themselves, this is undoubtedly the smarter choice. However, keep an eye on the Elite Trainer Box; its price seems as volatile as a stressed-out Gyarados.

### Pokémon TCG: Scarlet and Violet - Journey Together Booster Bundle
0$37.97 at AmazonAmazon's approach to pricing this bundle is somewhat underhanded. While the Elite Trainer Box has surged to a staggering $99.49, this six-pack bundle remains close to its MSRP and is shipped directly from Amazon. It's intentionally obscured in separate listings, which seems deliberate, especially since the ETB sold out quickly when it was priced below $40 last week.
