100 Thieves to Auction Rare Pokémon Base Set Shadowless Packs on May 30
California-based esports organization, 100 Thieves, is set to offer fans a unique opportunity to own a piece of Pokémon trading card game history. On May 30, 2021, the organization will be auctioning off a limited number of extremely rare Pokémon Base Set Shadowless packs.
Exclusive Chance to Purchase Valuable Pokémon Packs
The Pokémon Base Set Shadowless packs are highly sought after by collectors due to their rarity and historical significance. These packs are the first print run of the original Pokémon trading card game released in 1999. Unlike the later editions, the Shadowless packs lack a shadow on the right side of the image box. This printing error makes them exceptionally valuable to collectors worldwide.
Auction Details
The auction will take place on May 30, starting at 3 p.m. PT. Only a limited quantity of 36 packs will be available for bidding, each containing 11 cards. To encourage participation, 100 Thieves has set the starting bid at $10,000 per pack. Each pack will also be sold with a protective acrylic case to ensure their preservation.
Charitable Initiative
In addition to giving fans the opportunity to own a rare piece of Pokémon history, 100 Thieves announced that all proceeds from the auction will be donated to Gamers Outreach. Gamers Outreach is a nonprofit organization that provides entertainment and therapy to children in hospitals through the power of gaming.
By participating in the auction, bidders not only have the chance to enhance their collection but also contribute to a worthy cause. This combination of rarity, nostalgia, and philanthropy makes the 100 Thieves auction an enticing event for both Pokémon enthusiasts and collectors alike.
Don’t miss out on this exclusive auction and the opportunity to own a precious slice of Pokémon history while supporting a noble cause. Mark your calendars for May 30, 2021, at 3 p.m. PT and get ready to place your bids on the highly sought-after Pokémon Base Set Shadowless packs.
