    A piece of advice as a sealed collector is to buy your chase as a single. That helped me resist the urge to rip packs, since I already had the hit or hits I wanted in the set. 🙌

      Yeah but there's nothing like pulling that chase card. I shifted into doing this but last night I pulled the pikachu ex and the euphoria felt from pulling a card like that is unmatched lol. I think it's important to have a healthy balance of the two. Open some packs for some fun, and buy your chase cards after when the prices deflate, not everything needs to be about money.

    Im just coming up on a year back in the hobby. So glad I found this channel early on and took your advice on S&S boxes. They've all sky rocketed. Just wish I could have brought myself to buy ES BB back then!
    After 12 months I'm now holding about 6.5k worth costing me around 4.5k according to Shiny app. A lot being ultra modern yet to see its gains too.
    Definitely learnt some lessons along the way

    • @02danhaz
      @02danhaz หลายเดือนก่อน

      @Rigz. my original aim was to get some of each decent S&S set before they got too pricey, which I managed except ES. I've since moved to get one of each S&V and trying to jump on 151 restocks.
      I got 4 SS PC ETBs and sold 2 on the original jump along with my booster box. I dont doubt there will be opportunities to get a BB again. Ive since picked up a half BB at a good price.

    I have been explaining to my girlfriend every single day for the past 6 months that I refuse to open my sealed collection. She keeps nagging me about opening everything - especially my Crown Zenith product (it's her favorite set).
    She got into Pokemon cards before me, so she managed to pull the Moonbreon from just a few Evo Skies packs (she's got incredible luck). She even had the foresight to buy a couple ETBs to keep sealed, which is great.
    I managed to pick up some Paldea Evolved, Paradox Rift, Lost Origin, and Crown Zenith before the prices became outrageous. Also picked up some different newer sets for decent prices. Currently working on stocking up on Paldean Fates, Surging Sparks, Twilight Masquerade, and Obsidian Flames, but it's real difficult to find it at a price range I'm willing to pay at the moment.

    • @senn808

    People also need to keep in mind that most “investors” will ditch their sealed product as soon as it drops or open it when they’re drunk with their boys. The amount of people who will hold this product for YEARS is relatively low.

      There are so many people talking exit points but SwSh is going to age extremely well because it’s getting ripped like crazy right now. There really won’t be much left and these boxes will be thousands of dollars. This lack of product currently is great for SwSh

But in the back of my mind I know - this is my slice of the pie, let's see how it goes each year. It's tempting, but don't rip packs, people! Have fun, but don't break the bank on openings.

    I'm betting so many more people getting into sealed product will stay the course. Many of us original collectors started learning do's and dont's of investing using Robinhood in the late 2010s and during covid. People overextending themselves will just scalp or sell out of needing the cash, but many will hold knowing the current and expected state of the market

    I believe surging is between fusion and evolving so I think long term its one of the best sets. I still will be buying and if it gets a reprint ill get even more because i believe in it that much. All sets will do pretty well but imo it will do better than any other sv set so far long term.

      @marcburch2633 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I would say it’s exactly even with fusion strike (assuming no better sets come out) but I don’t think the chases are as strong, the illustration rares make up for it though. I hate the pikachu and think gengar vmax and Espeon vmax alts are better chases and will age waaaaaaaaay better 🤷‍♂️ the masterball pikachu (such a rare card 🙄) got reprinted into the ground from $500 psa 10 to $300 and technically that can still happen to surging sparks pikachu, but not espeon and gengar 🤷‍♂️

    • @mazisamadi3395
      @mazisamadi3395 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @marcburch2633 surging has popular Mons just like fusion. Pikachu, latias, hydreigon, milotic fusion has Gengar, Eevee, mew, celebi. Illustration rares are amazing in surging sparks and you can dislike the Pikachu that doesn't mean value will drop. It's also a far more enjoyable set to open. I think it will age well but it's ok to disagree. I think it's a better investment at this price and especially after a reprint then say something like paradox sv base etc.

    • @marcburch2633
      @marcburch2633 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @ I think fusion strike at $80 a booster box a couple years ago was a better investment than $200 for surging sparks will ever be but I’m fine with being wrong. I think the Latias also looks lackluster, the Milotic looks nice but it isn’t a popular Pokémon so it’s pretty overvalued in the event of massive reprints

I have a couple openings on my pokebros channel opening that set and loved it at the time but was definitely in the minority. But surging will most likely never be 80 a box the set is definitely good imo but only time will tell. Appreciate hearing your thoughts.
