Great video as always and appreciate you featuring our shop! Japanese is such an amazing alternative right now with all these English boxes getting so high, looking forward to see the future of these SWSH sets
Thank you so much. Thomas, please be careful next time you go to the theater. And whatever you do, don't take the side exit. Criminals lurk in the alleyways.
@@Robdoespokemon 😂😂😄😆 thank you I’ll make sure to avoid all of that at the next show but take care & keep making content. Im sure you will grow exponentially with time brother!
I'm up to 4 booster boxes of Japanese 151. I've averaged about $160 CAD to acquire them which still feels like a great price. If I can get up to about 10 boxes, I'll probably open a couple of them for fun. Thanks for the video, Rob!
Hey man, happy to see you were on the stream last night, you did pretty well informing on the market and future investment on pokemon and not feeling out of place considering you’re newer to the hobby than most of the others but it’s probably something to do with your background. Kind of felt that okjluv somewhat changed his opinion when he originally made the video to pokemon not being investable to now scarlet and violet not being investable because he couldn’t disprove the fact that everything before that has risen in price.
Hey dude, thank you. I had a blast! Still don't know how I ended up on there. Things did shift a bit in terms of talking points. IMO SVI will do just fine. Should be buying in now if you're a sealed investor with a long term horizon. Thanks for watching 🥃
Yeah this is def a good time to chase some type if Moonbreon for cheap rn compared to Evolving skies ! Lol had no idea it dropped so low. Thats good for pack rippers like myself. I enjoy ripping over profit!
Love it Rob! Don't sleep on Japanese right now! Great time to get some product while the price and picking is good for sealed and even opening collectors! Rip some great cards at a lower price! All the high class boxes are a MUST, they historically do well sealed. PS: they need a card called "Professor Junipers Passion"
I personally see some art rares and special art rares being bought up massively this week. I'm doing it too. Groudon and Tyranitar art rares under €5 are nice. Some sellers had 20-30 copies under €5. They now disappeared or repriced.
I’m loving the prices on Japanese product right now! People think the price collapse means the demand has fallen too but I think it’s just an overdue spike in supply. Long term, these are looking solid 💪
Im just over halfway through the podcast and you’re my favorite voice to listen to out of all those guys. I’ve been watching your channel as well as pokeoffice and oppossum bud way before I heard the name cool trainer ryan
Giving Juniper love!! ❤❤❤ Also, would love to see those prices in Canada but we don't get them as nice as The US. I have been looking to get the Shiny Treasures and another Vstar Universe, or a 151 booster box. What's your thought?
I think the reverse order. And for CAD, I just do ×1.35 and then add provincial sales tax as that's going to get charged on anything you bring in. Hope that helps!
The amount of people that have been scammed with Japanese boxes puts me off buying them on the secondary market. If I can’t buy them from PC Japan I don’t buy them
Hey dude. I understand. I've been there. I maybe should have elaborated. All the attention seems to be on the massive gains on swsh. I hope the rough times end for you soon 🥃
I think you hit on it quick. The yen has lost 10% of its value since July. If you take that out of the equation, and their recession, it is a very big opportunity. I have an order of about 40 boxes on the way in the coming weeks. Vstar universe is a gorgeous set.
Thanks for watching, my friend. And thanks for checking out the stream. I am incredibly grateful to Julian for hosting me on that stream. I got to meet some awesome dudes and it's helped my channel grow. He's a passionate collector, and I really enjoy his content. Hopefully I'll have a chance to chat to him again soon 🥃
Idk saying a set like lost abyss is for sale when it s almost 5x msrp sounds realy weird to me. Japanese product still has a lot of room to fall. I always like when people hype up fusion arts. That set stinks (besides for like 3 cards) people used to call it fusion farts for a reason. It still is 3-4x msrp... . I don t think you are necessarily wrong but stop comparing english sets to japanese sets in total value it comes off as disingenuous. Please use a MSRP multiplier. Cosmic eclipse is 6-7x msrp. Dream league is almost 12x MSRP. If you look at it that way you see that it may still be too overvalued but then again maybe i m the one being to bearish. I only collect japanese and since 151 there are a lot of stupid people in japanese pokemon collecting and I don t want them being exploited. Plz man use msrp multipliers when comparing japanese and english product. You are still a cool dude I just hate it when people compare english to japanese using face value it s just wrong.
Hey dude, I appreciate the feedback. Msrp multipliers is a metric I can look t in the future for sure. Total % movement is what I like to view as i feel it gives the clearest indicator of the movement of a product regardless of the tag assigned to it by the retailer. But for sure I can look at it. You may be right on where we go next, you may be wrong. Based on the time horizons I mentioned, I am confident these sets will be up significantly, even "Farts". I really do appreciate the thought and logic you put into your comment and for taking the time to watch. I'll continue to try and improve the level of my analysis while also enjoying the content creation process 🥃
I do got the blinders on for Japanese 151. Bought 6 bb to average down the price to 80 dollar a box so 2x msrp. Opened 1 for fun and giggles. Might try vstar too, Eevee Heroes is imo still overvalued. And ofc it won't drop to the value range of 151. But it is the reason why I rather open Korean Eevee Heroes. Not to keep sealed, just to collect the art work.

Omg, can't believe I never found your channel until that live stream. That Juniper comment is fire! Thanks for the chuckle.

Freak in the bedsheets?!?!?! Instant thumbs up. Kudos Rob. And Kudos for what you said on the mega stream on JLUVs channel.
Thank you so much 🥃🥃🥃
Shhuuushhh don't tell everyone! ;)
😂😂😂
i'm out of funds for a while 151 broke my bank
Just do what the other banks do and get a government bailout 😅 seriously, though, good for you knowing your limit.
I, too, stan Professor Juniper.
You talk about the sealed products do you notice a similar trend with SWSH alt arts? Thanks
Right now, it just seems like the sky is the limit for alt arts.

Professor Juniper's Passion... you are onto something there, my friend. I'm a little hot under the collar.
I personally see some art rares and special art rares being bought up massively this week. I'm doing it too. Groudon and Tyranitar art rares under €5 are nice. Some sellers had 20-30 copies under €5. They now disappeared or repriced.
These things will move fast. Lets see what the next couple of weeks brings.
How much powder you think CTR did before the stream?
I don't know dude. I just know I had a great time.

Les go Professor juniper! It’s crazy how high the margins can be if we buy now.
Juniper to the moon, baby!!!

What bottle of liquor is that in the back?!?
Liquor? That is apple juice 😅 It does look a little like Remy VSOP brandy, though. Must be a coincidence 🥃
Wow I knew some of the boxes were on sale but not that many. Thanks
You're welcome. Thanks for watching 🥃
Sounds like someone's hot for teacher! 😇 Very illuminating video and insights into the Japanese market. Much, much appreciated.

im taking advantage of these japanese dips
Great video thanks!

I’m not mad at hyping up the lady professors lol
Hey man, that's where it's at IMO 🥃
@@Robdoespokemon I’m with you brotha
MANNN im so tempted for a sealed box of dream league. Im just too chicken to buy some cause idk who to trust and also bruh thats alotttttt of money
I trust the guys in the video (even SNKRDNK). But don't do anything you don't feel comfortable with. It's a chunky box.
The amount of people that have been scammed with Japanese boxes puts me off buying them on the secondary market.
If I can’t buy them from PC Japan I don’t buy them
There are some bad dudes out there but lots of great sellers too. But of course buy what and where you feel comfortable.
I think is flying under the radar because ppl are broke. I know I would love to buy and invest but right now is rough.
Hey dude. I understand. I've been there. I maybe should have elaborated. All the attention seems to be on the massive gains on swsh. I hope the rough times end for you soon 🥃

That's awesome. I'm kinda jello. I would love 40 boxes on the way 😅
I just opened my professor, Juniper milk jug, and oh my goodness. Mommy’s got a 401(k).
Oh dear lord...
