What's inside the Steam Siege Booster Box

Each Steam Siege Booster Box is a factory-sealed display of 36 sealed booster packs, every one of them from Steam Siege.

About Steam Siege

Introduced dual-type Pokémon, led by Volcanion-EX. Released on 3 August 2016, it belongs to the Black & White and XY era. 10 years on, most of its sealed stock has long been opened, and unopened product mostly changes hands between collectors.

Steam Siege has 114 cards in its main numbering, plus 2 secret rares numbered beyond it.

The cards a Steam Siege Booster Box can hold

The Steam Siege cards collectors most want to pull are Volcanion-EX. With 36 packs, a box gives you the most chances at them of any sealed product, though no box is guaranteed to hold any one card.

Our catalogue lists the set's rarest tiers as 2 Secret Rares, 21 Ultra Rares and 32 Rares. See every Steam Siege card price for what each is worth.

Steam Siege Booster Box as an investment

After 10 years, sealed Steam Siege booster boxes rarely come up, and prices tend to rise as boxes are opened and supply shrinks. Booster boxes are the sealed product most collectors hold long term, as they are easy to store and to value. Much of its sealed value rests on demand for Volcanion-EX: if those cards rise, unopened product usually follows.

Past prices do not guarantee future ones, and this is not financial advice. Read should you buy sealed Pokémon products? for the pros and cons.

Before you buy

Check the shrink wrap: factory wrap on booster boxes has neat seams, often with Pokémon logos printed on it, and loose or glossy wrap can mean a resealed product. At €2,381 it is worth asking for photos of every side and buying from sellers with a long, positive history, since resealed and weighed product is common. A full box gives better odds than loose packs, and its value as a sealed item is easier to judge (how to value a sealed booster box). Check whether delivery from ebay.de adds import fees, and store sealed product flat, out of sunlight and away from damp.
