    i suggest not to put the charizard promo in a toploader. the crease on the pack transfers to the card over time. Becareful. better just put them in a tin without any toploader to be safe.

    • @vaporself
      @vaporself  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for the info! I will definitely take them out. Luckily I don’t think the toploaders are too tight so hopefully there’s no damage.

  • @joaquincarrillo5354

    why are those charizard ex boxes "sealed"? did u put that wrap or it came like that when u bought it cause definilty isnt original wrap, if it was you its all good to protect the box the more taken care the higher u can sell for collectors, but if it came like that, the preovious owner may have resealed those packs and put the wrap to avoid further inspection so it keeps "protected" and u leave it as that

    Your collection is sick!!!! I’ve invested in similar stuff not on the scale of your collection though but I have a team up etb and prices on it it are going extremely high right now I also have the original charizard ex box but mine is not in the plastic rap cuz I got the box when I was like 9 and was not a fan of the rapping but I might make a video on my collection soon.

    @gonzalogutierrez7954 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great video! I think you made a really good choice buying all those celebration boxes, especially looking at how the set of generations has perfomed. On the other hand, I would buy way more Sword and Shield booster boxes like Fusion Strike, Chilling Reign, Brilliant Stars or Vstar Universe. Also space wise is way better than collection boxes.

    Thanks for the tour. Is there a reason to grade or not grade your singles? Won’t they sell better if you grade?

    • @vaporself
      @vaporself  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      No problem! I don’t grade singles because 1, I don’t have a lot of singles, 2, none of my singles are very valuable, and 3, you have to make an account and grading is expensive if you don’t do bulk. So it’s not worth it for me. However, if you have a lot of singles that are possible 9 or 10’s, that might be a good option. It will be easier to sell but depends on the grade you get.

  • @JeremyB8419
    @JeremyB8419 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It's a good collection. Have you considered selling some of it off as prices go up, and then consolidating those earnings into older sealed products? E.g., 5 cases from 2020 go up 5x, sell 5 cases, use money to buy 1 case of 2010. That way you don't wind up with rooms full of stuff over the decades.

      @johnnygpoproplayer Inaccessible? Everything he has is available online and in stores...it would only be concerning if stores had no stock when a new set comes out. If your issue is older sets later on being overpriced then if you really think about it, without investors holding product, the products would be even more inaccessible because less product in the market would cause even higher prices.

    nice haul! I would recommend for some of those more expensive boxes e.g eevee collection box, buy a plastic tub or wrap it in something to prevent the corners/surfaces getting accidentally dinged. those cardboard outer are super easy to scratch and affects the value long term. u don't wanna grab a coat and scrape one of them boxes 😂🎉

    • @vaporself
      @vaporself  ปีที่แล้ว

      🤣funny thing is I actually bought storage bins in the past to put all of my products in. However, I found that it's not really efficient in terms of use of space because it takes up a lot of space and doesn't maximize storage (size of the boxes makes it weird sometimes). Plus, I can't put storage bins in my closet because they are too big. So I returned them all 😅 I think the boxes will be okay if I'm careful enough. Thanks for your concern!
