Question about Japanese Foil 7th Edition
Posted: Sun Sep 04, 2011 7:43 pm
I just picked up 33 packs of Japanese + 4 packs of Chinese (simplified I think) 7th edition. I cracked them all and didn't get a single foil card at all. I have other Japanese foil 7th edition cards I had gotten previously, and know they exist. I find it very odd that I didn't get a single foil at all in these boosters.
What could be the explanation for this? I got them from a small shop, from an opened box. The box was quite dusty, and had been sitting on the self for some time at this shop.
I opened them at home, and after opening 10 of them I became suspicious of why I hadn't seen a foil yet. I kept opening, no foils. I started looking at the boosters to look for signs of tampering, and couldn't find any. The flap was still fully connected to the booster. I could find no cuts or openings on any of the boosters. No signs of heavy handling at all. They seemed like legit sealed boosters...
Does anyone have any idea why I didn't get any foils out of these 37 boosters? Was this a set where it was easy to pull the boosters that had foils vs ones that didn't? I am puzzled, and it seems I may have bought search boosters, but I don't know how... ????
