We haven’t really been seeing things retrace much lol the alt art boom was one thing but what the market has been doing has not done this before and how all the new cards have all time highs right now along with the alt arts and sword and shield going up like crazy . I do see it retracing but not much some these cards are about 5 and 4 years old now . Scarlet and violet sets are worth more than sword and shield sets it’s pretty crazy .
This morning I picked up another giratina v PSA 10, sylveon vmax psa 10, and mint unified minds box for two cases of surging sparks that I preordered at under $115 a box. I’ve still got 1 more case and two more mint surging spark boxes for the vault, so I’m stoked about the move. Lock in some gains!
Thanks for the video! I feel like Brilliant Stars is probably now the most undervalued BB in S&S given the depth, Charizard set, and 2 sought after Umbreons, with an amazing Trainer Gallery. Have to think good chance this is a $500 box in the next 12-18 months
When its all said and done, this will be the #2 for the era behind Evolving Skies. The lesser cards are really underrated and the Garatina is a superior chase card to Gengar. This set has everything you want for a long term stash! Fusion Strike only has it edged out currently becasue of Espeon, and that card should have been in Evolving Skies.
I think I unintentionally started a buyout a few weeks ago on the Lost Origin Pikachu V Trainer Gallery. I just thought it was crazy to be going for $90-$100 as a PSA 10 when the raw card was $40 on TCG. I bought 10x PSA 10’s on eBay and then shortly thereafter I noticed all the buy it now’s were bought up to $200+ Good / lucky timing. Not intending to flip I just thought Ash / Pikachu artwork is too good to pass up as a long term hold.
Some dude I met at a card shop a while back wanted to trade his Giratina Alt V for my Base Set Charizard in LP condition, Base Set Blastoise (MP), and Base Set Venasaur (MP). I respectfully declined, especially cause it took me a long time to find my Charizard in that condition for a good price and the big 3 are a prized part of my collection 😅
Hey, congrats for the channel. Would love to hear your thoughts on securing our Pokemon investings. Floods in Spain, fires in California, you think will never happen to you but who knows... Saludos!
Never be afraid to take profits. If you want to sell some to cover you cost basis and let the rest ride I'm a big fan of that. Natural disasters are really scary it's sad to see. Always have an evacuation plan
Any suggestions of what sets of booster boxes or ETBs to start a sealed collection? Also is it worth investing in ETBs or just the pokemon center ETBs?
Regular ETBs will do well long term. Try to focus on PC ETBs when you can. I know it can be really hard to get them right now. Right now I would be focusing on Prismatic restocks at MSRP and new sets moving forward. For booster boxes I still really like Paradox Rift.
Gambling addicts, oh I mean “hobbyists and collectors.” I’ve been reselling for some time now, and currently my prismatic evees are $150 per and it’s crazy how much people are willing to blow. Like if they just saved their money and instead of buying 3 boxes from me for almost $500, they could just buy the card they want. Pokemon people are 100% gambling addicts and with everything people take it too far and I’m sure some people sacrificed their priorities to buy from me. So that’s who, the gambling addict inside of them will pay $3500 if it means they have a shot at making $4000.
I have only bought one over that price and it wasn't to open it. Truth is some people have a lot of money and will open boxes at that price or even higher. No gambling for me here keeping it all sealed.
Daamn..8k for the Prismatic Umbreon PSA 10..economic inflation is really hitting everything -- I still remember a PSA 10 Umbreon at 1k...3 years ago smh... 😢
@justinalexander4166 I was just being funny ( first world problems 😅 ) to me- even a card 3 years ago at $500 at PSA 9--- I'll be floored-- daaamn-- that's a lot of money. 😶
Thoughts on these lesser Lost Origin cards starting to make some moves?
The Gengar IR is too good compared to the others gaining momentum. It's only a matter of time..
I bought a PSA 10 giratina V alt for 380.00 usd exactly 1 year ago. What a play.
Great ROI
Legend
Just pulled a Giratina Alt last night seeing a few sales at $700-$750 I might wait a bit to sell to get more out of it.
Congrats on your pull thats epic

Yeah I like Brilliant a lot too!
Gotta love Lost Origin, was the first set I invested in, a great set.
I feel like I cover LO too much haha I might need to taper back on it a bit.
@@Itwasneveraphasecards Can never talk about LO too much!
The Gengar up to $160 in a PSA 10, the bong card going crazy
I just did my 2nd sub ever with PSA. Proud to say, Tina got a 10!!
Congratulations!
@Itwasneveraphasecards thank you!

Gengars popularity is so high though it makes me question everything but I totally get where you are coming from! I would love to see LO as #2.

Congrats on those pickups!
Giratina Alt Art is the best sword and shield card, hands down
thank you gallery cards! I always loved you!
Glad you like them!
i ordered 2 ETBS from target and ripped one, no pulls but was fun to rip.
Glad you had fun!
@ bro I pulled the Japanese Umbreon right now from Terastal Festival LMAO

Mad I ripped my lost bb a few years ago... I've been picking up most of the lesser singles still need the big tina... #endgang
Good luck on getting the Tina!

great vid!!
Thanks for watching!
We’re definitely in a bubble market and I give 3-5mnth before it burst, the market adjust again
Only time will tell at this point
My favorite and first Master Set! I knew I had to go for it when the first booster pack I opened had the Giratina Alt Art :)
Love the channel, TJ!
Wow first box Giratina congrats thats awesome!

@ Thanks for the feedback! Keep up the amazing content dude! Always nice to start my day off watching your videos 🫡
9 grand absolutely unbelievable
Hasn't sold yet
I had a chance to get the Pikachu v and vmax at so cheap before this boom. Ehh live and learn.
It happens to everyone I have been there countless times
Who is buying booster boxes at $350 plus? Im curious
Gambling addicts, oh I mean “hobbyists and collectors.” I’ve been reselling for some time now, and currently my prismatic evees are $150 per and it’s crazy how much people are willing to blow.

That Pikachu vmax is sooo ugly
Aerodactyl should be closer to 200 tbh. It's amazing 😊
I wouldn't say the Vmax is ugly but I get where you are coming from.
🤫 🤫 please no giratina gains updates. The card doesn’t exist guys, nothin to see here.
*I lost 2 auctions last night*
Good luck on your journey! I hope you get one
Daamn..8k for the Prismatic Umbreon PSA 10..economic inflation is really hitting everything -- I still remember a PSA 10 Umbreon at 1k...3 years ago smh... 😢
Not even 3 years ago I sold my psa 9 for 575 and bought 13 evo skies etbs for 40$ each with the cash. Insane rally we’re in
@justinalexander4166 I was just being funny ( first world problems 😅 ) to me- even a card 3 years ago at $500 at PSA 9--- I'll be floored-- daaamn-- that's a lot of money. 😶
Doesn't look like any have sold at that price yet so we will have to see
Go Bills! ❤️🤍💙
I will be rooting for your Bills!
@ thank you! Good luck to your Niners next season!
