The market is flush with PSA 8 raw cards, which is completely normal giving the final swsh set is still available at TPC. Will those cards be available in a few years at those prices? Probably not.
To me, my collection is priceless. It always grates me when people keep tabs on the “value” of their collection. Screams ulterior motives…. Basically money money money.
I’ve seen some scarlet and violet illustration rares go up in price … look at the ralts from base set .. it’s close to $300 in a psa 10 …. Extremely low pop
It’s crazy, it’s almost like things in the market increase based on market demand and then when that demand is met things drop off again.. and then that money goes elsewhere in the market. Completely normal behavior btw
Something spiking and then returning to its normal range is completely within normal volatility. Of course people would off load when there’s a 20% appreciation and the cards are moving.
I wonder if there was any correlation to these cards and card party? I bought a few of these cards there and just got them back from PSA today and was surprised by the current value.
Somewhat surreal to start my collecting in late May. I wonder what forces came together to pop Pokemon cards back into my headspace, maybe some TH-cam recommendations and a memorial day sale? Weird how it seems to have happened to others too. The price changes don't really affect me since I don't intend to sell and the absolute cost of paying 10-20% more on some cards isn't that significant, but it's weird I was part of that wave without realizing it
I remember just a month ago I left a comment saying that your videos were too hyping up the SWSH era pumps and may hurt people financially buyi ng in at that time, and that time has now come just a month later with the dump. To your credit you do care about the community and calmed down on reporting the pumps afterwards! Hope not many collectors were hurt by the annual spring alt art pump and dump - sucks that market manipulators always trick so many every year and profit while legit fans get hurt by the cycle 😢
One thing I think that could be important to those that like to collect a lot of cards as a collector. They can be found in psa 9 for very close to a raw copy and if your worried about your cards condition over time I think it maybe wise to look at graded psa 9s for that card.
Danny, you're such a legend. Thank you for your constant contribution to the community. Personally, am quite keen on shrouded fable. (I really like the promos from it...) But, there are also quite a number of cards in the set that look amazing too! (Cresselia, Zorua, looking at you two first.)
This is exactly why I was totally okay with selling my collection when things peaked because I knew things were gonna drop, now I can rebuy my collection at a huge profit lol
Nice to sell at peak but you never know when it will start dropping you just have to guess .Peaks and valleys they will go back up its the way it goes!
The hype pumps around spring and summer when people get their tax returns back and cards shows/conventions start. Then, when winter hits and everyone needs money for the end of the year, that's usually the best time to buy. Atleast thats what I've noticed
All normal stuff here. Just wait in a couple weeks they will shoot up....then stagnant...maybe drop and go up again. This is all pretty standard but i sincerely appreciate the video as it is helpful
Feels like they wanted to do a Halloween set but then thought to themselves, “those trick or treat packs really do pack a lot of amazing art, let’s just throw chain links in the background and call it a day.”
Looking at the lunineon it doesn't appear it takes the percentage from the highest point rather the beginning date otherwise it should be in the negative but it was plus 12%
I wish I sold some of my alt cards I have multiples of. It would've been good financially to take advantage of the bubble. I love collecting and ripping packs but it really is a black hole for me financially because I never sell anything, hahaha.
Never buy high when something is hyped. Investing 101. If you really believe in it, you're holding for the long run. If not, you bought into the hype beast. Either way, no gains or losses until you sell.
I think don’t think Shrouded Fable will be HUGE with but I think it will be better than a lot of people think. There will still end up being a couple cards people will search for.
I completely agree. I’m actually not upset with this and Stellar Crown being so close together. They both are relatively small so it’s more just like one giant Fusion Strike like set
Crazy…thank gosh I don’t own a busyness. Now I can an afford an alt art illustration vx gx ex crystal crash break mega shiny glarion dark and light prism secret promo pokemon x gucci full art Picasso Pikachu.
I don't know why people are surprised? back 10 years ago. the TCG sets had like 120 cards, the special sets always had like 40-70 cards in them. these days each set has like 170+ cards and then some even have 50+ SECRET rare cards... like honestly its a joke. the "pull rates" are skewed because theres so many cards. I dont know about you guys but i'd prefer opening half the amount of packs & getting most of my base set. then having to possibly buy 1-10 singles to finish my set. this keeping those rare singles actually valuable? like look at some current sets. their alternate art cards are worth under $3.......... now go find any card predated 2005 thats rare & worth $3? even back in 2005 they used to cost more..... Current market dictates that if you want to complete a set, you will either pay HUNDREDS and hundreds of dollars to complete it. usually $1000 plus & if you wanted to open the said master set from packs yourself, we all know you can easily spend 2000-3000 dollars on sealed products to rip open. now tell me how that makes sense.
I was lucky enough to pull 2 of the alt at espeon. My knowledge of the prices (in Australia was only $50) now I’ve learnt it was over $100 US but still sitting at $90 😮 im pretty chuffed with that 😅
The Espeon vmax? That card shot up to nearly $350 (USD) in late May-early June. I snagged one on an ebay live auction around that time, luckily I grabbed it for a fairly reasonable price. It's currently down to around $250ish or a tad below. Almost wish I immediately just flipped it...I could've made an easy $125-150 if I did that 😂 but I really just want to keep it in my collection for the time being anyways. If it shoots way up down the road, maybe I'll consider letting it go.
There are too many of them. It always happens with the new gimmicks for the cards. I still see the moonbreon crashing hard. The pop is way too high in a 10
It’s summer… people are outside or on vacation enjoying the weather. Prices / volumes always decline. Not a surprise and has no bearing on these cards tanking long term.
And that is why I'm more into sealed stuff right now. Sure I do miss 15 alt arts for SV151, pretty much all for ES but those are the most expensive ones. So I'll await the restock/reprint in september/october and then pretend to pick some up during November once the SV151 restock is done/dusted.
@@buffalobill9793 that’s the best thing about art, you don’t have to like it. I’m sure there are other cards you like that I may not. Doesn’t mean the art is lacking, sometimes the more divisive the art the longer it lasts. Not everyone thinks the Mona Lisa is beautiful.
@@buffalobill9793 that’s how I feel about the Blaziken VMAX alt art from chilling reign. Okay, it’s colorful but I’m not gonna buy it. “To each their own” sorta speak.
This was super hard to see coming. Raw modern cards have literally NEVER sold for over $150 from any set within 3 years of release other than the Hidden Fates Charizard, and that was still borderline influenced by all the covid relief money in 2020 when it first hit $300+ raw. Folks, the economy is crashing, every asset is crashing in value simultaneously. I know because I buy and sell items that pertain to a couple dozen hobbies and industries. All crashing at the same time. Pokemon will fall 90% more and then homes and stock will as well. Save your cash and get ready for mass layoffs and the most difficult time since the 1930s. It WILL be worse than 2008. All the math is worse.
There is definitely some warning signs across asset classes. Lots of people with their head in the sand right now. That said, I think we are a long way from being able to call a 1930’s style depression.
Well, the people with the best pulls are the factory workers 😂, Imma stick to a hobby that at least I get something in return for my money 😂 $800 for Empty Skies
This is great for collectors, screw the people trying to make a buck 🤡
Completely normal, people should stop panicking

@@GoldenEdgedGreg ofc not. Swsh will probably get a big hype at the 30 years celebration
TIME TO BUY!
Yeah just got a lumineon PSA 10! I don"t mind the fall
I’m Feeling Out The Market until After The Holidays en New Years. That’s when I get the best deals every year.
When others are fearful, that's when I'm greedy.
😂😂😂 yeah buy up & watch it crash another 40%
@staxondeck7352 if it does that I'll be buying 2 of everything lol
I have watched my collection price drop by about 2.5k over the past couple months. Sad, but it is all cyclical
Definitely the right way to look at it
To me, my collection is priceless. It always grates me when people keep tabs on the “value” of their collection. Screams ulterior motives…. Basically money money money.
Damn, if it's your personal collection why care if the value drops. Bunch of fake pokemon fans who would sell it all at the first opportunity
People can both care about their collection AND monitor the prices. Yes, they can also sell pieces infrequently OR frequently. You guys are sad.
Yeah I've seen about 1.8k in drops as well but it doesn't bother me. I collect for fun, getting valuable cards or pulling them is just a bonus.
I bought a few alts during the dip, stopped while it was spiking, might be time to start hunting again.
Wish the prices would slip that much in Europe...
Fusion strike is available below retail in the UK
UK is not EU 🙏
@@UrpsDerDurpshe said Europe. Last time I checked the UK didn't change continents.
@@UrpsDerDurps appreciate the basic information, not my point. Imagine how much you’ll know after elementary school when you get to go to jr high?

@@skyscraper5910 im thinking a good deal into X and Y megas
That's not crazy. It is supply and demand that determines prices. It's not a new concept. People have known this for centuries.
This is the best thing to happen to real collectors. Now we can get the cards we want reasonably
as soon as "moonbreons" were selling for more than 1st ed neo umbreon holos, you knew the prices were artificial and needed a slap
Something spiking and then returning to its normal range is completely within normal volatility. Of course people would off load when there’s a 20% appreciation and the cards are moving.

How do you do your purchasing? Do you use an ERP or quickbooks for planning?
Appreciate u Danny Phantump 😊Thankyou for the info 🙏

But, there are also quite a number of cards in the set that look amazing too! (Cresselia, Zorua, looking at you two first.)
Do people not realize that nothing in life goes straight up??? In order for these cards to continue up in price there has to be dips.
Just like corps like McDonald’s think there’s supposed to be unlimited growth, lmao.
Greed all day long baby. Sad.

Which alts did you fomo on ?
Hey, i dont mind it. Now, i can submit my PSA submissions in a lower tier for those 10's 😂
Time to sell if you bought at peak.
Awesome good news, now please english reprint of 151! Crash those unrealistic prices
Good work Danny! Time to buy 🔥

The "big boys" are holding up tina,moonbreon, rayquaza, evolution vmax alts
Corrections are good. Good time to start buying again
Whoever could have seen this coming.......
Danny 10 steps ahead as always
Everytime I mentioned waiting for the price to drop, I had ppl on here vehemently telling me it wouldn't happen lol prob "investors"
Like clockwork it seems
Really appreciate your information and updates!! Thank you for your content boss!!
13:56
Now if only the boxes themselves could dip in price. PLEASE. I want them so badly, lol.
They're not plummeting (theyre returning to normal), this was foreseen by everyone including you Danny right after the pump.
Awesome! Collecting certain sword and shield cards won't be so hard on finances.
Thanks for another vid danny, always enjoy listening in at the end of my days. Stay well friends. ✌🏽
Over production of the card. Wait for the SUPER CRASH that is coming.
There is no overproduction, I watch a lot of boxset unboxing & they unbox 0 pulls.. the factory workers must have all the pulls 😂
$800 for empty skies 🤣
All normal stuff here. Just wait in a couple weeks they will shoot up....then stagnant...maybe drop and go up again.
This is all pretty standard but i sincerely appreciate the video as it is helpful
I think the unown v alt art is so nice
I was lucky enough to pull that from a few god packs at my local Walmart!
Shrouded fable is DOA… F in the chat 😔
Feels like they wanted to do a Halloween set but then thought to themselves, “those trick or treat packs really do pack a lot of amazing art, let’s just throw chain links in the background and call it a day.”
I am broke, and a few of these I would like for my collection . It gives me hope that at some point, I can afford them. Keep up the awesome content!
I prefer seeing 1 year charts not 3 months. Provides better perspective for me 📈📌
Looking at the lunineon it doesn't appear it takes the percentage from the highest point rather the beginning date otherwise it should be in the negative but it was plus 12%
When does the twilight master set giveaway take place?
That jolteon is probably my favorite of the eeveelution alt arts. Might pick it up finally now
Nice, looking like I'm going Arceus V Alt Art PSA 10 hunting.
I wish I sold some of my alt cards I have multiples of. It would've been good financially to take advantage of the bubble. I love collecting and ripping packs but it really is a black hole for me financially because I never sell anything, hahaha.

Some of these cards are still very expensive. That Moltres is still soooo high bro.
I did a ton of buying at card party. Should have waited.
Prerfect let most of these cards steam down because of the market updrift by people just buying up everything.
If even all the eeveeloutions aren't safe from dropping in price then I think all Charizard cards should also take a big hit.
Will Giratina drop to an affordable price already?!!! 😠
It's good to be one of those people that didn't fall into fomo during the peak and have disposable income
Thanks Danny!
Shrouded Fable firesale incoming! My god, it's gonna be cheap.
2.5k drop in the last 2 months , but if you did it right it was probably up 5k the month before that

love to see it. Scalpers & hoarders, manipulators LOSE
There aren't many, most are just the factory workers
They should have skipped shrouded fable and added the IRs to the next special set. Way too saturated.
Do I just have to be subscribed to the channel for the member giveaway?

Time to buy or time to sell, hard to tell these days but the boom is definitely dying
Every summer
Honestly, why is Shrouded Fable a special set? It’s more like a normal set, and a bland one at that.
Why is the Unown v on here? That card has always been underrated never had chance to move up never mind crash! Just like the Zeraora
Wish the whole market would come crashing down so the investor bros would finally move on to something else. Tired of the manipulation and buyouts
Card portfolio still up much better than stock portfolio 😂
Don't understand cause we already have ETB cases for over 2 weeks. Guess it's an American issue thingy
Please do more of these videos🤙
I love pokemon but what they do with these releases leaves such a bad taste in my mouth.
Hi Danny 👋
I’m gonna buy out Beedrill. Aiming for 480 copies
Why? Trying to remanipulate the market?
I'm ot satisfied until that Lugia is around $100 😂
I gave up trying to pull it.
