A little FYI about the sleeves, from someone who worked in a game store with a lot of Magic and Pokémon; turn the flexible sleeve upside down, so the opening is at the bottom of the card. Then put the hard case over it normally. Reduces the chance of damaging the card, especially useful around these types of expensive booster boxes

Sometimes if science does it’s thing as well there can be a weird vacuum effect which makes it borderline impossible for dust to collect and minimizes oxidation so foils don’t cloud over years.

Promos, about 10 Force of will and some other really really sick old cards. At the time I lost it it was worth a few hundred bucks but now it would be worth 6 digits. I stopped playing for a while and when I started again I just couldn't find it anymore. Maybe my dad took it away when I had bad grades (he used to do that) and misplaced it.
