Does any one have a pic of the Orange Poke'ball sleeves?

dang, i remember i ordered a Rhyperior Level X once and it came with one of these. I might still have it around though.

seriously? orange are the rarest? oh god, i wonder how much my set of 60 is worth....

Here they are http://s220.photobucket.com/albums/dd108/AggyCo/?action=view&current=OrangePBallSleeve.jpghope the link works and they really aren't orange. More like a gold/copper. I can see why they have the value very unique.

 

[Lawman]

Interesting color. I hope they are a bit more orange than copper. Living in Tennessee, near Knoxville, this is Big Orange Country and I was hoping they were more like UT's colors. I'll use them anyway when I get some. (And I will get me some! :lol: )

if they're like rust orange, i had 6 sets that i got from worlds in hawaii, sold them to others for $20.00 at states and regional, didn't know it was that rare

Just a FYI, the orange are older than the silver pokeball sleeves out. :thumb: I managed to aquire one set so far.

From what my source has told me it is 10 years or so.

 

[swampert97]

Wow, i'm assuming the orange ones are the ones you're talking about... So around what are they worth IYO?

Only worth what one would be willing to pay.:biggrin: I myself wanted a pack and payed a hefty price, a little less then my pika sleeves but still up there.

OK, thanks.

 

[Lawman]

The orange sleeves are at least 8 yrs old, if not closer to the 10 Mike said. As he said. they are worth what someone is willing to pay since they are no longer produced.

10 years old. Wow this is quite an ewsome treat then. Now I don't want to use them. Just like Mike I paid a fair bit of change for my sleeves but well worth it I think.

 

[Ardoptres]

Too bad my 6 packs of the 10-year-old silver PB sleeves got stolen

 

[KaMewie]

Well, I wanted to know the quality of the Pika sleeves. Is it good? What's the texture like IYO? Is it like the rough lucario type? or the slippery ones? I need to know this before i get a pack for myself.

 

[Ardoptres]

The Silver ones are good.

 

[KaMewie]

so the silvers are the rough type and the gold's the slippery?

 

[Ardoptres]

i have no idea about the gold ones.

 

[swampert97]

I don't know about the silver ones.. But the gold ones are about the same quality as other Japanese pokemon sleeves. I'm guessing based on the texture because i've never used them. They aren't really compareable to our prerelease sleeves, the Japanese pokemon sleeves and our prerelease sleeves aren't the same quality. The Japanese pokemon sleeves are more slippery however are very good quality and don't wear as easily as some of our prerelease sleeves.
