The UK RRP of a standard Pokémon Elite Trainer Box is £49.99, a booster bundle is £24.99 and a single booster pack is £4.29. This page lists the RRP of every product type, with the price per pack at RRP, so you can spot a fair price fast. Checked 23 October 2026. ## The RRP of every product type The table below gives the standard UK RRP for each product type and what you pay per pack at that price. | Product type | Standard UK RRP | Packs inside | Price per pack at RRP | |---|---|---|---| | Booster pack | £4.29 | 1 | £4.29 | | Booster bundle | £24.99 | 6 | £4.17 | | Elite Trainer Box | £49.99 | 9 in recent sets | £5.55 | | Booster box (36 packs) | No single UK RRP (36 x £4.29 = £154.44) | 36 | £4.29 at pack RRP | | Mini tin | £8.99 | 2 | £4.50 | | Premium Collection | Varies by product | Varies by product | Check the box | | Super Premium Collection | Varies by product | Varies by product | Check the box | | Ultra Premium Collection | Varies by product | Varies by product | Check the box | These are standard UK RRPs for 2026 sets, checked against UK listings. Collections vary too much for one figure, so check the exact product. - **Elite Trainer Box.** UK retailers list recent Mega Evolution era boxes at £49.99 (for example the [Chaos Rising](/blog/pokemon-chaos-rising-uk) box at Smyths), and the Perfect Order box holds 9 packs. Older Scarlet & Violet boxes held 8 or 9, so count the packs on the box before you compare. - **Booster box.** The UK trade listing for the Perfect Order booster display shows 36 units at £4.29. That works out at about £154.44 a box. We did not find one confirmed shelf price from a single big chain, so treat £154 as the calculated figure. Shops set their own box prices. - **Mini tin.** £8.99 is the standard price. Some 30th Celebration mini tins are listed at £12.99. - **Collections.** Prices vary by product, so check the exact box. We could not confirm a single UK RRP for the 30th Celebration Ultra-Premium Collection when we checked. - **Blisters.** We could not confirm a UK RRP for the 3-pack blister from a reliable source, so we left it out. Seller asking prices are not RRP. Pack counts change from set to set. The price per pack is the best way to compare two products. A lower price per pack means more cards for your money at RRP. It does not mean better cards. ## 30th Celebration as a worked example Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration shows how RRP differs across one set, because it has several product types at different prices. - **Elite Trainer Box:** £49.99 for 9 packs, or £5.55 a pack. - **Pokémon Center Elite Trainer Box:** £56.99 for 11 packs, or £5.18 a pack. It is sold on Pokémon Center UK only. - **Booster bundle:** £24.99 for 6 packs, or £4.17 a pack. It follows the ETB by about two weeks. - **Mini tins:** £12.99, above the usual £8.99. - **Ultra-Premium Collection:** no confirmed UK RRP when we checked. The Pokémon Center box costs £7 more than the standard box. You get two more packs and a second promo card for that. Per pack it is the cheaper of the two. For the full product list and dates, read our [30th Celebration UK guide](/blog/pokemon-30th-celebration-uk). ## How to tell if a shop is above RRP A shop is above RRP when the price is higher than the figure in the table for that product type, after you allow for the exceptions below. **What counts as RRP.** RRP is the recommended retail price. The publisher and its distributor suggest it. A shop can sell below it. A shop can also sell above it, because the price is a suggestion. **When a higher price is normal:** - **Special sets.** Anniversary and special set products often carry their own RRP. The 30th Celebration figures above show this. - **Pokémon Center exclusives.** The Pokémon Center ETB has extra packs and promos, so its RRP is higher. - **Tins, collections and bundles from different sets.** Each can have its own price. Check the exact product, not just the type. - **Delivery.** A shop that charges for delivery is not above RRP for that reason alone. Compare the item price first. **When to walk away:** - The price per pack is far above the figure in the table, and the listing gives no reason. - The item is a standard product with no special contents, yet the price is well over the baseline. - The seller will not tell you what is inside or when it ships. - You are asked to pay by bank transfer to someone you do not know. We do not name shops in this guide. A single high price on one day does not tell you much about a retailer. Compare two or three listings of the same product before you decide. ## Is RRP the same as what it sells for? No. RRP is a suggested shelf price. The market price is what buyers and sellers actually agree on, and it can sit above or below RRP. Market price moves with supply and demand. When a set is popular and stock is short, the market price can go above RRP. When stock is plentiful, it can fall to RRP or below. Prices can fall as well as rise, and sealed product is not guaranteed to keep its value. This is not investment advice. The gap between the two has a name: markup. Markup is the market price measured against RRP. A product at RRP has no markup. A product selling above RRP has a positive markup. Paragn Network members can see this for each sealed product in the Vault in the [Paragn app](/app). Tap a product to see its UK market price, its RRP and its markup, plus a 7-day trend and restock history. The app shows live UK prices only. If a Pokémon price has not refreshed for 7 days, it is hidden rather than shown stale.
