Pokémon summer sealed hold continued. One Piece OP-17 is editorial and preorder only this week — English live sealed arrives Aug 28. No live One Piece prices yet.

How the market was

August opens on a Pokémon hold. The summer sealed story stays stable on ASC / CR / PB books without a fresh SKU crash.

Also this week: One Piece OP-17. Issue 19 is editorial/preorder only until EN live Aug 28. No live One Piece prices, and no live OP price on this Monday.

Week over week vs Issue 18: rip settle quietens into summer hold; OP appears as light editorial only. No Celebration.
