## Key points

- The Pokémon Center is selling Poster Collection boxes for $14.99.
- Pre-orders for the upcoming Ultra Premium Collection remain unavailable.
- The UPC includes 30 booster packs and is already being resold above retail.

## Summary

The Pokémon Center has begun selling 30th Anniversary Poster Collection boxes, but has not opened pre-orders for the more eagerly awaited Ultra Premium Collection (UPC). With the UPC’s release approaching and resale prices already high, the lack of an official pre-order leaves the Pokémon Center as an important potential source for fans seeking it at retail price.

The Poster Collection costs $14.99 and includes three Legendary Bird promo cards; orders are limited to one per customer, which also falls short of the free-shipping threshold. The Eevee-themed Battle Deck is due on 30 October, followed a week later by the UPC, which includes an exclusive Future Rare card, a Classic Collection pack and 30 booster packs. The article says pre-orders would usually open at least a month before launch.
