Buy / wait / skip
- OP17 box around £120 — conditional buy for opening and play; verify in-store Dash Pack allocation first.
- OP17 box at £140–£160+ — wait. The premium is not justified by verified scarcity.
- Expensive OP17 singles — wait, unless a card is required for a locked list this weekend.
- Cheap Giant/Elbaph play pieces (e.g. Usopp OP17-080 V1, €0.50 floor) — buy play copies, not investment copies.
- P-110 Monkey.D.Luffy participation promo — event first; the 4th Anniversary event runs to 13 Sep.
