The Pokémon TCG Mega Evolution Ascended Heroes Elite Trainer Box (ETB) costs $141.97 on Amazon as of November 13, its lowest price there since April.
The listing comes from third-party seller Thumbs Up Distribution, not from Amazon itself. It sits $37.98, or 21%, below the $179.95 list price, and $8.84 below the $150.81 Amazon deal that appeared just over a week earlier. Delivery is free, with an arrival date of November 24. Each box holds nine Ascended Heroes booster packs, a full-art foil N's Zekrom promo card, 65 sleeves, Energy cards and extra accessories.
The timing of that April low matters. The box was last this cheap on Amazon right before its market price shot up, driven by the value of particular chase cards (the rare pulls collectors hunt for). It then spent much of the year at high prices.
The 21% figure is measured against list price, which is a softer yardstick than it looks. The TCGplayer market price, a running average of what the box actually sells for, is $125.45. That puts $141.97 about $16.52, or 13%, above it. The deal is a discount on paper and a premium in practice.
The per-pack math is a little friendlier. At list price, the nine packs work out to about $19.99 each; at $141.97, about $15.77, though that spreads the cost over the promo card and sleeves too.
The open question is which number moves next. If sellers keep chasing the market price downward, the gap to $125.45 is the one to watch, not the gap to list.
