💎 Condition Details

Step back into history with the original Pokémon Japanese Base Set, known in Japan as the Expansion Pack (拡張パック) — the legendary 1996 release that started the global Pokémon phenomenon. This was the first Pokémon TCG set ever printed, predating the English Base Set by several months and featuring the earliest artwork, layouts, and the original Japanese text that launched a worldwide legacy.

This listing includes all 102 cards from the original Expansion Pack, making it a complete master set. Every card from Bulbasaur to Mewtwo, plus all Trainers and Energies, is present.

🇯🇵 Authentic Japanese 1996 Release

Printed by Media Factory and released in October 1996, the Expansion Pack introduced the world to Pokémon cards. Unlike later English releases, these early cards often have no rarity symbol, different attack names, and a distinct color tone that reflects the earliest print run style.

These cards represent the very foundation of Pokémon TCG history — a true collector’s milestone that has become increasingly hard to complete, especially within the United States.

Ideal for serious collectors, historical preservation, or restoration projects.

A Delightful and Unputdownable Read!
Format: Paperback
"Nine Month Contract" was an absolute pleasure to read. I was immediately drawn into Trista and Wyatt's story and found it to be a genuinely light and refreshing book. Seriously, I couldn't put this down! What truly made this book shine for me was the beautiful development of the relationship between Trista and Wyatt. K.S. Wright crafts a believable and engaging connection that keeps you rooting for them from beginning to end. However, the element I loved most was the author’s dedication to Trista’s personal growth. It was refreshing to see her character arc handled with such care. Wright allows Trista to be wonderfully vulnerable without ever compromising her strength or losing her essential self. She remains true to who she is, even as she navigates challenging circumstances, which made her a deeply admirable and relatable heroine. ✨ Tropes You'll Find in This Book: - Forced Proximity - Slow Burn - Grumpy/Sunshine - Contract/Arranged Situation - Found Family If you are looking for a fantastic contemporary romance with great chemistry and a compelling journey of self-discovery, look no further. Highly recommend!

New Trope for Me
Format: Kindle
The Prologue alone was the funniest thing I've read all year. I LOVE the fact Everly gets her own pov, it allow the story to flow so smoothly. Plus she's hysterical. I laughed so hard reading this book, I had tears in my eyes. A surrogacy romance is a new one for me, but I went in open minded. And if anything I definitely have a new found respect for the practice. I love that Amy Daws did not glaze over the surrogacy process, and took the time to include the different practices and barriers one might encounter. While this book can be read as standalone, I personally wished I started with Last On the List (Max's book) to get a proper introduction. We of course know how the book would end, I still found there to be so many twist and turns. Especially when Trista had that heart to heart with her sister. I believe this was a great start to the series, it made me look forward to the next book, which I immediately started reading. My biggest issue I had with this story was it seemed like Trista often took advantage of Wyatt, basically from the moment she met Everly. And when confronted about anything she played the "pity me I grew up poor and unloved" card. At first it was funny, but then I'm like hmmm are you punishing this man because he grew up loved and well off. She often wants him to respect her boundaries, but could care less about his. No means no lady . She some what redeemed herself in the end, but I still struggled to connect with Trista as a whole.

Gets the Creative Juices Flowing
Format: Paperback
I picked up this book after hearing Kim Addonizio give a reading at my college when I was an undergraduate. Creative Writing and poetry were my areas of emphasis and although we used a different textbook in my poetry class, I came to love this one. It won't give you the formal training in meter and poetic forms that another textbook might, but I love the examples and the prompts for inspiration. It's my favorite book to turn to when I feel the creative well is running dry. It's warm and funny and you feel a real presence from the authors as if you have teachers with you. I haven't met Dorianne Laux, but I have chatted with Kim Addonizio twice after readings and she was lovely. (Her readings are fantastic, by the way, and I highly recommend them!) If you are familiar with Kim Addonizio'ss poems then you shouldn't be surprised to find a section on erotic poetry in this book. Erotic poems have a long tradition in poetry and they are not "porn" as one reviewer suggested. Sexuality and sensuality are part of life and the artistic expression of such is a special skill set. I think it's fantastic that this book doesn't sensor that. I love the examples chosen for this book--many beautiful, contemporary poems that utilize vivid and unexpected imagery. I find them inspiring. They make me want to write and they make me want to be a better writer. I do believe that if you are a beginner or if you are considering this book as a textbook for a class you should consider it as a supplement to a book that goes into a little more depth in certain areas, such as Writing Poems (see if you can get an older edition, if you are lucky, as I see this book has become quite expensive). But this is a fantastic little book and I love having both a hard copy to underline and put notes in and a Kindle copy to keep with me on my phone so I can have a little inspiration with me for easy access. No matter where you are in your journey as a poet, I believe this is a wonderful book to have in your library.

Received brand new book in perfect condition for less than ten dollars
Format: Paperback
Received brand new book in perfect condition for less than ten dollars. I needed this exact book for a creative writing course and I enjoy the exercises within the different sections. They are very thought provoking and creativity stimulating and would be excellent inspiration for any poetic or even descriptive writer. Also, I find the writing style of the author amazingly easy to read. It is simple and straightforward, easy to follow and not boring as some other texts are. The tone is inspirational honestly, always providing tips and writing encouragement. This is a nice positive twist and delightful different perspective for aspiring writers and though it sounds to be directed at amateurs, I think any author who may experience writer's block at times could find this useful and full of insight to try out fresh perspectives to pen about topics that may be applied to a broad range of subjects. Quality informative and yet uplifting text regarding poetic writing!

Practical, Useful, Down to Earth, Inspiring!
Format: Paperback
I love this book. After reading the first chapter early one morning I went outside to feed and water my cats and came in and wrote a poem about flowing water, tangled morning glories and memories of my mother. It's one of the most inspiring, practical and encouraging books about writing poetry that I've ever read, and trust me, I've read them all. It has technical information and poems to illustrate each chapter, which is very helpful. The suggestions at the end of each chapter are down to earth and do-able, unlike some books that are just too high-minded for the average person. If you love to write poems and just need some inspiration and a little advice and encouragement, then definitely buy this book. It's worth its weight in gold!
