P8en

POP Series 8 released September 1, 2008. The printed numbered set ends at 17, while the catalog contains 17 English printings after secret-numbered and premium entries are included. This page separates those counts and treatment quotes so “complete set” does not hide different collecting definitions.

Snapshot date: 2026-09-21. Totals exclude shipping, tax, seller availability and condition adjustments. A preferred regular variant is used for the numbered and collector definitions; the treatment definition counts each sourced market identity separately.

TCGOdds does not currently label booster boxes “better value” for POP Series 8. A fair box-versus-singles comparison also needs a timestamped sealed-box price and enough sourced opening evidence to describe expected contents. Until both inputs exist, use the interactive POP Series 8 checklist to price your actual missing cards instead.

Data boundaries and sources

Catalog identity comes from the pinned TCGdex dataset and TCGCSV product records; USD market observations come from TCGCSV's TCGplayer feed. Selected chase cards have evidence-rich detail pages, while the full catalog remains in the checklist. Images stay reduced 200px identifiers; no high-resolution downloads are distributed.
