In this video on Pokemon Card Investing, I look at the different stages of Pokemon card investing.
What stage are you at?
Thanks to everyone who interacts! We're well on the way to developing a sweet community of pokemon investors and collectors!
Please check out my previous video on pokemon card investing:

Nah mate, level 1 invested is buying stuff to hold for the future and then opening it because you have no discipline 😂
This is factual.
Hahaha this 😅👌
Level -1
never mix your feelings with money mate, if you like to crack pack dont invest in pokemon
Thats where im at ! 😂😂😂
I'm number 5. I've been doing this since 1994 with MTG and then Pokemon. I've always been a collector/speculator since I was a kid and it's made me a lot of money. I even did this as a kid with TMNT figures.
But it wasn't for the love of money that I did this. I just enjoyed figuring out the markets on the collectibles I enjoyed. It was always seeing how many steps ahead of the market I could be. Knowing and seeing the future value in something that no one else suspects is a great feeling.
That's awesome mate. Would love to see the collection!
Sell them all to some nerd
@@godlyishere9381 If my kids have no interest in them, I probably will. But not for a very long time. Maybe in 30 years.
@@godlyishere9381 At some point I'll sell some of my pokemon stuff and TMNT stuff. I've already dumped 99.9999% of my MTG singles/sealed product over the past 4 years as I have not been a fan of what WOTC has done to the game and how they're printing cards into the ground.
IMO, it's only a matter of time until they reprint the Reserved List and even go back and reprint old sets.
For my Pokemon/TMNT stuff, I'd like to give most of it to my kids. I'd like to open more and more with my kids as they get older if they want to, just for fun.
As they get older, it will be fun/nice to sell a box of cards and buy them a car, etc.
Being a collector/speculator/"investor" comes with the complication that while there is a bit of a "making money" mindset behind it, the collector aspect is what really rules, which makes it hard to sell things unless companies pull a WOTC which makes it a no brainer to sell and jsut move on.
This is a level 6 video! Great work mate. Keep ‘em coming!
Haha I like it! 😅😎
Tbh... We've bought tons of product, to simply open, chase the chase, my one main goal was to finish my Crown Zenith Galleries set... Which I've just finished 1year in. And three cards from Silver Tempest...
Long and short, we opened products, we could've kept for 6months and sold and close to doubled the money, but we didn't cause we enjoy opening the products and we have pretty nice binder collections... ❤
That's what I like to see, my cards, not my boxes of stuff 😅
Nice man! Sounds like you're really enjoying the journey 👌
There’s nothing wrong with having fun that’s what it’s all about anyway that’s why I ordered some boxes for my self to enjoy for Christmas (another tcg) I collect and sell in
That one lucky guy, I’m level 10 I just found 3 first edition cases in my dads attic 🤣 (I’m level 2 in Pokémon but if we’re talking all tcg I’m level 3) and then you got people who are level 100 finding 3 1900 Mickey mantles in a binder 😳 people are pretty lucky when they buy a house and find that treasure in the attic, true story
What a story!!
Thanks for the vid mate! Would like to hear more about the balans between collecting/investing. What is your approach, do you still open sealed products for collecting purpose? Meaning singles, (master)sets etc. Would like to hear more about that
Yeah awesome, I'll have to get a video out on that bro!
You're right. There are definitely levels to the collecting hobby. I'd put myself at level 2, but my knowledge is around 3. Would love to hear your thoughts on Paldean Fates and how you see it doing in the future. 👍
Can't wait for that set to drop!
Id say im lvl 3 just back into it but my god rudy is a god
He's the goat 🐐
im about a knowledge level 1 and investing level 3, got super lucky that the most money i was spending on pokemon was during eevee heroes and evolving skies as i bought into all the hype at the time, so thanks pokemon investing community lol.
Good stuff!
I'm getting quite the ugly pile of collection boxes in my closet, but pack selection/Pokemon promos have a lot to do with what I buy. Like I'm not going to buy Cyclizar Ex boxes, but the Alakazam Ex box has an Evolving Skies in it at least.
Most of the loose tins I buy because they've got decent packs inside (Evolving Skies is a recurring theme here).
There's certainly some good collection boxes (something with a good promo and nice pack selection).
Opening 151 packs has kept me humble and not to over spend
The pull rates aren't great hey! 😅
Michael From PokeOz! 😂 I’m level 2 been in the game for 2 month now, SV 151 got me into it and just completed master set, have cost $1.2k and have 1.7k of sealed product. Any tips on to holding this paradox rift booster box? Not many hit on the set 😅
😅 nice start mate! Paradox has depth just lacking those 2 big chases!
Love your insight and takes; I was thinking if at somewhere like level 5, the individual also has some kind of reputable store or online presence (e.g. TH-camrs) to be able to sell stuff, especially the more obscure/illiquid, more easily than someone without!
That's definitely a good point mate. An outlet to sell bulk! A patreon or a reputable store 👌
Keep up the great work legend. Love your videos 👍🏻
Thanks heaps 👌
I love rudy but if he is lv.5 then the sperm of the sperm whale pratte is at least lv.9....
Rudy has a lot of capital and financial knowledge but not pokemon specific knowledge. Smpratte is the Miraak of this hobby in every way....
He is also the man!
I'm level 0.. I don't think I'll collect anything after 151 (Korean). I already overpaid for what would essentially be like 6 booster boxes in rapid auctions on Whatnot. And have ordered 10 more boxes and planning to open all of it. Since Korean isn't popular I doubt I can resell my extra hits, let alone non-holo and holo bulk. But I'm having fun with it. 😅😅
Glad you're enjoying it man!
i am level 3, i only started in 2022 with a couple evolving skies boxes. i am fine with staying level 3 bc i dont have much storage and dont want to put too much in something thats somewhat illiquid (does not sound fun to me lol). i did just buy a couple of 151 japanese boxes. I dont plan to sell my boxes tho, pokemon is like gold bricks but way better
Nice work mate 👌
Im pokemon level mgtow. Modern bangers in sgc 10 labels. People call me crazy and I am. Universally time is your friend
Nice man!
Don’t know we’re I sit in the levels but my investment strategy is to get 2 PC etbs, 1 booster box, 1 art set, 1 BB stadium box, the 2 check lane blisters and the 2 triple blisters for each set. This totals less than £300 every 3 months. In addition I try to get the Vault X binder for each set and if I can afford it a Raw copy of the top chase card for each set! I find this soothe my collector itch so I I’m not tempted to open anything. So far I’ve done this for every set since chilling reign. Exit strategy I retire in 14 years so sell it all and buy a camper van 😂
Good strategy man!
So I’m making a spreadsheet recording how much I purchased per product. Should I include taxes per product or just price plus shipping?
Don't forget about apps like collectr where it'll track it all for you!
Am kinda new to Pokémon honestly I feel a 3.5
This video made a sparkler inside me
I enjoyed this video
Awesome mate!
What do you think about the 3 pack Paldean Fates blisters with the shiny promo cards and stickers?
I bought a case of 12 of those because it’s 36 packs same as a booster box which they don’t make.
Sounds like a nice investment mate!
Level 2.5 id say ... Made some mistakes earlier on in my poke investing journey, but have done lots of research, and feel like i have a pretty good grasp on things now. Just a bit under 10K into the market now.
Doing well mate, levelling up!
i've always wondered, how are pokemon center etb's different to the regulars?
Sword and shield differs from scarlet and violet. S&S more packs and a promo 👌
I totally did that level 2 mistake hard, wanna buy some Pokemon Go collection sets? lol
I gave up on the investing side and now just collect.
I just focus on cards i like and getting one ETB and BB for each set but cheap as i can find
Yep, I think we've all fallen into the collection box trap at some stage 😅
I like the way you did this video…I’m still watching so I’ll lyk what level I’m at soon 😅
Haha nice bro! 😅
I'm Level 3 and maybe I'll become a Level 4 someday. I don't think I want to be Level 5. I'd rather devote my life to other things. 😉
It's a lot of outlay hey!
I’d say level 2 here…new to Pokemon collecting but not to collecting in general…grew up collecting sports cards and comic books…I, too, have regrets about not keeping stuff I had earlier…new to Pokemon investing but not to investing in general…studying the game and its nuances through your channel (my favorite) and many others, like Rudy. I’m mostly in later SWSH sets…Silver Tempest, Chilling Reign, Lost Origin, Fusion Strike…I did buy 3 cases of Paldea Evolved but I’ve held myself off from other SV sets so far, listening to you and others, and trying to stock up where it’s likeliest to go up most first…I have a case of Evo Skies, Shining Fates and Hidden Fates ETBs and a few Crown Zenith Collection boxes…from this point on, I’m going to be focusing on booster boxes and special UPCs…and only think about ETBs, as an investment position, with the holiday sets. Thanks for the information!
Thanks mate, keep grinding!!
Another creative lens in which to look at the hobby, Michael! Thank you! 🤙🏼
I would say I’m right there with you at level 3. My knowledge of English is stronger than Japanese but still learning everyday thanks to content creators like you!
Awesome mate! Good level to be at!
Congratulations 🎊 Australia for wining cricket 🏏 cup
Thankyou! Great win 🇦🇺
2.3 on my way to 3
Keep grinding mate 👌
I love opening packs sooo much ive opened 50% of what i bought to store it as sealed product. Lol
It's hard to keep them all sealed, that's for sure!
if i bought a booster bundle box sealed for 350 and can sell it for 500/550 like 3 weeks later, should i sell it? its 151 set
Personally I'd hold but if you need the money, that's a decent gain in a very short period of time!
I’m at 1. I buy what I like open it and enjoy it, or trade it off. Kinda like how he hoppy was intended
That's OK mate!
Rudy is the guy who got me into pokemon investing. If you have haters, you must be doing something right
He kills it!
Bae, wake up - a new PokeOz video just dropped!!!!
Haha legend!
I would say im a level 3 in hopes to becoming a level 5
Keep going with it mate 👌
Rudy sits at level 5 alone, the category exists solely for him.
Haha level 6 😅
I guess im about level 3.5 lol. I started too late to get the great deals on vintage. But I have a lot of skin in the game today.
Awesome mate, let's keep grinding!
Any tips on selling on eBay? Would like to see a video!
I could definitely do one. All about building up the brand, getting a trusted store with good feedback.
Solid level three here. I don’t have the stones to go to level 4….
That's sort of where I'm stuck at. Devoting all disposable income to go to level 4 and not putting it in other investment streams sou d's a touch risky!
I would put myself Level 3.5😂We all made mistakes and Learned from it and the longer you been in a hobby you make more Wiser & Smarter decisions for the future. Cheers Mate!!!🍻
3.5, that's awesome mate 👌
I'm probably a solid 2, I got in at the start of SW&SH with NO knowledge whatsoever. Starting with standard ETB's and soon moved to PC ETBS only, then I got into Booster boxes. I bought a few other products like the lunch boxes and realized instantly they were too big to store for the long haul. I also bought some tins but they were loose (now they just annoy me lol) I've now got the odd sealed box of 3-pack blisters. Plus a few UPC's, 7 x Zard, 3 x Arceus and 4 x 151's. Plus I love the sealed investment side of things, watching all the related videos, waiting for the next big set, picking up deals, it all add to the fun ;) Keep up the good work mate
Awesome, thanks for sharing man!
Number 2 pushing level 3
Nice mate!
Level 4 is a bit specific, there were opportunities to make sizeable gains in 2020 without travelling too far back
Thanks for watching man!
Level 2 collectors: I would go for collection boxes that have alt art promo cards and include set that are not only desirable to the market but also yourself.
151 collection boxes are the go-to at the moment. Paldean Fates will be next big investment release for me
Nice mate!
I'm definitely a level 3 😂
Nice man!
Surprised you haven't jumped into one piece yet. I got in just in time. Picked up a box of romance dawn for $117.
Nice mate! Actually just finished watching the live action!
@@pokeoz91 haven't seen it yet. How was it?
@christophermillett2273 actually not too bad!
Interesting video I would say I’m 2/3 but I would say if you pick the right collection boxes down the road
Like the Arceus v box with cosmic in them
And Amazon have the kyrum v box with two evolving skies and two lost origin for £20 which is a steal in the UK
Charizard UPC at £80-£85 is slept on aswell in my opinion
I
Oh definitely, there's certainly some good collection boxes out there. Thanks for tuning in!
I’m Level 1.
Keep grinding mate! Got to start somewhere.
Stage 1.1 😂
Got to start somewhere mate!
Maybe 4.. but I'm not all pokemon. Been collecting sports cards since 1999 mostly singles and some sealed.. Yugioh 2017. Pokemon 2019ish. Best pokemon buy was 10 booster box cases of Evolving skies at $120/box, 2 cases of Blue sky stream ($70/box), and those Eevee hero gym boxes at $325. My worst buy so far prob shining fates/vivid voltage etbs at msrp, that $ coulda been spent better elsewhere but had no clue they would print those specific sets into oblivion. I enjoy grading cards, that's where I do my best in increasing value. IG same name.
I agree on the vivid ETBs. It screamed good news at launch! An ETB that was vibrant and had pikachu on it! It's a shame they got printed to the ground!
I think I’m around a level 1.5 to 2 and I’ve still got a lot to learn …so far I’ve mainly invested in English & Japanese booster boxes which makes up 90% of my sealed collection.
I poured a lot into evolving skies, gx tag team, eevee heroes & chilling reign bb’s over a year ago and this year I’ve been slowly acquiring lost origin, brilliant stars & Japanese 151 bb’s.
I like booster boxes as an investment because they’re a versatile product, you can sell them as a sealed box and when they start to become too expensive and unobtainable for most you can break them down and sell the packs individually.
🇦🇺🏏🏆That was a ripper win the other night, that knock from Travis Head will go down in folklore as one of the best
Thanks for another great vid, love your work mate🤙
Wasn't it ever! 🇦🇺 The lads got it done 😎 keep grinding mate!
hey man, loving your content keep it up! the amount ive learnt from just watching your stuff its unreal. Melbourne is rough to find good priced products, would love a video about different outlets to buy TCG in a country thats hard to find good deals.
Appreciate it! Good to hear from a fellow Aussie 🇦🇺
Level 3 here, love the video. Your example at the end was easy to follow but unfortunately I would say the vast majority of boxes won’t double that fast. It will take years and years except for the few exceptions. So level 5 in my opinion is someone who hits on those exceptions and avoids a lot of the big busts. E.g. they have a large investment in Evolving Skies but not Shining Fates or whatever you may have it because they understand the Pokémon specifics of it all
Agree mate, thanks for adding some info!
Would like to hear more about your gripes with the Poké Investing subreddit, given it’s the starting point for many new investors yet chock full of misleading advice and trivial info.
Yeah, it's grown pretty big. I think close to 60,000 members. But it does seem full of people "just starting out" or seeing what their "card is worth". The mods seem cool and I'd like to see the end of the what's my card worth posts and see some more in depth discussion and guides to what products to pick up!
I’m probably at about level 4. I buy 5 cases whenever a new set drops of booster boxes/ etbs when it’s a specialty set. And I eventually grab myself 1 psa 10 of every ultra rare or higher in a set to satisfy my collectors itch.
Wow! I wish I had that level of disposable income. Nice work mate!
I’m gonna put myself near 3 with a sprinkle of 2 every now and then haha
Trying to get a case of booster boxes for each set and a case of etbs for the special sets, but I also try and pick up other products if they are a good deal.
Like today, scored a rebel clash 3 pack blister with Ray promo for $19 from cash converters haha couldn’t believe it when I checked last sold were like $50/60 👌🏼
Oh man, that's a sweet pick up. Your eyes would have lit up 🤩
This is such a well thought out video. I’d say I’m currently at Level 3, but I’m thinking like a Level 5 now. Thanks for all the great, humble content!
That's awesome mate, keep grinding!!
Great content all those bb can reach about 1k in 5 to 10years evolutions teamups cosmic eclipse brilliant stars and evolving skies has some really nice sets in sword and sheild awesome win by the boys congrats they were my favorite in the world cup
Thanks man! Great win after a very average start!
Another great video PokeOz! I would say I am probably a level 1.5 - 2.
Still really new and still finding what I love the most about this hobby.
Nice mate! Keep grinding!
Very accurate mate! I’m level 3 myself.
Not only sealed I used buy really cheap graded cards at the start, then couldn’t give them away 😂
All about learning lessons along the way mate!
About 2-ish… started 3 years ago, so still quite new…
Keep grinding man!
Congrats on 6k subs! Been watching you for a long time
Thanks Matt!
Level 1 🤷🏼♀️
How do you find out print run information?
Keep going man!
Low 2 I think or maybe a high 1. Great videos.
Keep grinding mate!
1 I’m poor as heck
Keep grinding!
🔥keeping it real brotha
im level -0 :D
Come on haha
haha id say 1.5 tbh
@@pokeoz91
I'm a lowley level 2 right now but I'm trying to get into it and hopefully being smart with my purchases :)
Keep grinding mate!
@@pokeoz91 thanks brother i will!!
i hope to have a few cases of my favorite sets one day :)
So level 2 is 2 level 1 added together 😂
1+1=2 🤷♂️😅
Best part of my commute 🎉
Great to hear!
Keep up the good effort mate!
Thanks bro!
Needed this video
Glad you enjoyed it!
Brilliant video mate! Content just seems to be getting better and better, but everything is excellent! 😊
Really interesting points made here!
Btw, what’s your take on Lorcana? Is it easy to come by down under?
Thanks man! Oo I, don't know heaps about it to be honest. I did hear it wasn't open for launch pre orders in Aus, but that's all I've heard!
2 maybe 3 … only been investing for couple years still learning, still making some mistakes.. but loving the journey.. hopefully one day be a high 3 maybe 4 … Cheers for the video keep them coming as there’s not many Australian TH-cam channels out there…
Thanks mate, that's true! We need more Aussies on youtube.
