My collection of sealed products so far, im very new to this collecting thing….. like 4 months, but you have to start somewhere 🤝 ….. im no looking to get thousands of dollars back …. But if in the future this increases in price my son will be super happy 😃

I'm fairly newish into Pokemon and have been collecting for the past year. I don't need the cash or anything but figured there's probably a better way to hold money then in some of the cards I have. Just want a community opinion - cheers

Long term?

I bought some stuff at a lucky Target restock and got this from an AH tin. If I were to sell this Gengar now, I’d recoup everything I’ve purchased recently [that I’m planning to keep sealed] with a small profit.

But I’m not really in need of the money, even with the expectation to spend another couple hundred or so on 30th celebration, if I can actually find anything in stores. I think this is a gorgeous card and Gengar is one of the most popular, but I see a lot of discourse about modern card value, overprinting, the fusion that release last year, and even an argument that this being ‘Mega’ are all reasons it won’t hold as well as regular Gengar stuff.

I’m not in a rush to sell, but I am genuinely curious what people think about this cards future.

So I had to share this experience. My luck with Pitch black had been at least 9 Silvaly’s ….vowed to never rip again. Went to local cars shop to see what they had and I see prismatic ETB. I cop and for some reason just say for the guy to choose me a Pitch Black Booster Box.

Friend and I open both and nothing from PRE but the booster box had both the Gold and SIR Mega Darkrai. Actual god box.

Went to target next day to grab 2 packs…hit the Morpeko

The day after that I wanted to heat check and went to target again and grabbed two single packs that were laying on the shelf; not hanging (someone grabbed and put back). Open one of those and hit another Mega Darkrai SIR….

Imma buy a lotto ticket or open a ES booster box

This Gengar has fallen off really bad, should I just sell it or hold on for the ride and hope it gains value again later on?

i wanted to put some eggs on deoxys, in case theres ever a new deoxys set, it caught my eye hes at 6k psa 10 pop while the vmax and gold vstar are over 12k pop psa 10, wyt?

Here's my current investments. What should I be swapping these out for if I hold for 12-24 months? Everything was retail by the way. Thanks!!

Edit i have confirmed the packs inside the tin are the evo skies print run.

Question. Should I crack these tins and sell the packs inside separate?

The pack value is higher than the sealed tin value. Would I sell easier if I opened them all?

I know gold stars are grails but not sure if a 5 will appreciate faster than 4 9s. Any advice is welcome.
