Minor defect. This Elite Trainer Box is still factory sealed, but it has minor damage: small dents, creases or bumped corners on the box, and slight rips in the shrink wrap. The photos after the first three are real examples of what we consider minor damage, and Condition & Authenticity below has the details.
The Pokemon TCG 30th Celebration Elite Trainer Box, sold at a lower price because the box has minor damage. Inside are nine 30th Celebration booster packs, a full-art foil Nidorina promo card and the full accessory kit.
30th Celebration is the anniversary expansion marking 30 years of the Pokemon TCG, headlined by Mewtwo ex and Mew ex alongside Umbreon ex, Salamence ex and Greninja ex. It mixes new illustration rares with Classic Collection reprints of cards from earlier sets, and every booster pack includes one of 30 Pikachu rare cards, each with different artwork.
This box suits you if you're opening the packs or playing the cards, where the box condition makes no difference. If you want a box to display or keep sealed, buy the standard 30th Celebration Elite Trainer Box instead. New to the set? Read our full 30th Celebration release guide for dates, card list highlights and every product in the range.

All orders include tracking and are packed with collector-grade care. You can cancel for change of mind before we dispatch. A 15% restocking fee comes off the price of the items you cancel, and postage is refunded in full. Once an order has shipped we cannot cancel it, and we do not accept change-of-mind returns. A mixed pre-order and in-stock order ships together once every item is available. The exception is an in-stock item we keep at another location, which is posted on its own, without waiting, at no extra cost. Ask us to split it and we'll invoice the second parcel's postage. Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law are not affected: if an item arrives faulty, damaged or not as described, email contact@dropstore.com.au within 48 hours of delivery with your order number and photos of the damage, and we will arrange a replacement or full refund.
Brand new, factory sealed Pokemon TCG product. We source legitimate sealed stock and pack high-value collector items with extra care before dispatch.
Condition: Minor Defect
Please read before you buy. This Elite Trainer Box has minor damage to the outer box. Each box has some of the following: small dents in the panels, creases in the cardboard (at a corner, or a crease line running down a side) and bumped or slightly crushed corners. The shrink wrap can have slight rips or wrinkles, usually where the box is damaged, but it is still on and the box is still sealed. It is not in perfect box condition, so take this into account if you are buying it to keep sealed or as a collector piece.
The photos after the first three are real examples of what we consider minor damage. Every box is a little different, so yours won't match them exactly.
The damage is to the box only. It is still factory sealed, and the nine booster packs, the Nidorina promo and the accessories are all inside.
Because this damage is described before you buy, it isn't treated as an item arriving damaged. Damage beyond what's described and shown here, or a problem with anything inside the box, is covered by our Shipping & Returns terms as normal.
You order online. We pick it from the shelf in Melbourne.
Every order is checked before it's packed in collector-grade wrap.
Dispatched from Melbourne with tracking, usually within 1-2 business days.
Every order goes out double-boxed, void-filled and in a rigid mailer. The outer box is protected, not just the cards inside it.
Everything we stock is factory sealed, never opened and never resealed. We hand-check each order before it's packed, so dinged stock doesn't go out.
Sealed product can reach you two ways. This is the difference the packing makes.

In-stock orders are packed and dispatched from Melbourne within 1 to 2 business days. Orders placed on a weekend or public holiday go out the next business day. You'll get a tracking email the moment your parcel leaves us. Pre-orders are different: we dispatch 2 to 5 business days after release.

Once an order has been delivered we can't accept a change-of-mind return on sealed collectibles. If you change your mind before we dispatch, you can cancel instead.
