hell yea man, sweet pick up! I love your mail day videos because you pick up different things from all eras. It's not the same cards over & over again that most people are focusing on these days. Dude, I wrote out a long multiple paragraph response to your "strategy in 2024" video a few days ago, and I accidentally X'd out of the tab before posting it lmao. I was too tired to rewrite it that day. But the main point of my response is that I agree with most of your points in that video. I might rewrite a more detailed response to it when I can find some time. I didn't pick up any cards for the last 2 months, because I was saving for one of my grails, which I just received in the mail today! always appreciate the content man
Ah no worries man. Always love seeing your comments! Thanks for checking out the video - I had a lot of mixed opinions in that one! And also CONGRATS!! Always nice to finally be able to obtain a major collection goal. If you don’t mind sharing, what card was it?
@@TCGCollector ya the people who were disagreeing hard towards the bottom of the comment section, had some pretty misinformed takes. Not trying to sound elitist, but I expect that they are newer to the hobby and don't know understand market cycles/trends. They are just blinded by hype. One commenter said the cards you showed were trash, but that's the same type of guy to think any cheap modern card is also trash, until it gets hyped up and becomes expensive - then they think it's the greatest card of all time. Those guys don't have their own opinions, they just let current trends and current prices form opinions for them. The card I recently picked up is a PSA 10 "Burned Tower 052/l-p" Japanese prize promo. I'm the only one to purchase it in the last 8 months on ebay, so you can easily see the sales history. You'll see a duplicate sale of the same card from a few days earlier, which was a sale that fell through and got relisted. As a Raikou collector, and Johto lover, the Burned Tower Prize card with the 3 legendary beasts on it, was an automatic must-have once I discovered the card existed. It's my 3rd favorite card of all time, so the Raikou collection wouldn't have felt quite complete without it.
Thanks for backing me up man. I wouldn’t mind having a debate with people until they become rude then I don’t bother to waste my time. I know exactly what card you are talking about and it’s a great one! I love the art, the rarity and the era that it was produced. Congratulations! It’s a card that I hope to add to my collection one day. My current prize cards are the unikarp, mysterious pearl and some victory medals!
Thank you as always :). Always happy to see your username pop up in my comments haha. I know the feeling - so many great sets out there and it's so hard to keep focused. What are you currently working on completing?
Ah - 151 seems like a beast to complete. I've been thinking more and more about starting master sets lately as well. Seems really fun to complete but I know if I did pull a really nice alt art, I would be too tempted to grade it.
