What would be the going rate on these? Is there a premium over just 6 loose boxes..? 100% sealed vs. 1 or 2 flaps open, etc

My opinion is that it's simply the added sum of the individual box values in the given condition.

I have a very special case that has only one lengthwise flap open which I did to verify the contents. I’ve kept it like that all these years because I feel there is a very high premium to be realized...eventually. Is that true of all cases? I believe so. I simply ask myself, “Would I rather have 6 loose boxes or all 6 boxes sealed in a case?”. For sure I’ll pick the case and maybe even if I had to pay a small premium.

I think cases should hold a premium. One of the major reasons for me is that it serves as proof that the boxes haven't been tampered with.
I feel like 100% sealed vs. 1 flap is tricky. I always go back and forth. I feel like sealed Base Set cases are always such a gamble because there are so many variants and I haven't found a way to differentiate based on the outer case alone.

What would the cost be on something like that?...I would say probably a 10-20% premium. but who really knows..

Gary, I have heard this story before...but Im still wondering is the case of unlimited, shadowless or 1st edition base set boxes??...Either way very cool!! If its a case of first edition base set boxes than I can see why your dubbed king_pokemon lol
