Just my 100,000+ $1 collection rolling thread.
As you know, i sell Ultramodern but actually have a vintage collection also.
Majority $1 cost cards .
My thinking was $1 cards are worth more in the long run vs a few trophy cards that cost the same to acquire. There is no right or wrong way to collect. Just different ways.
Sealed vs Singles…
You can buy a $100 in boxes (under msrp english or a couple of japanese boxes) Yes it will go up.
Or you could just buy all the buddy buddy poffins 10 cents - $1 for the last 8 months.
Lets say you got 200 at 50cents (its 10 cents in tcgplayer). You could sell the 200 for $600-1000 if you sold off early in Japan.
There are a lot of these type of opportunity , you just have to STOP LISTENING TO THOSE IDIOTS ON YOUTUBE.
buddy buddy price today (people give these to you free)
Another reason i rather sell under $50 cards (under $10 even better). Is the exact reason you are seeing in the SCAM High end questionable Pokemon market you see happening NOW.
THE BIGGEST and BEST SCAMS are in HIGH END Market. The best market is low end high return Pokemon Cards.
Biggest egos ,Biggest greed, Biggest SCAMS, Biggest ignorance , and biggest denial are with High End Pokemon Cards.
Stick to pure Pokemon collecting and fun. Low end pokemon cards./
Because the cards you like are influenced by people posting up Trophy cards ,bogus test ,promo cards,etc. Greed just crushed a lot of collectors when they had a feeling the cards were bogus. Greed trumped common sense.
You say buy what you like, then go around and say low end pokemon cards are the way. A lot of the cards I want excced your range, and it’s not because of the youtubers or “high end” market, it’s because I like and want them.
Those cheap single v ex and full arts are cheap for a reason more than just youtubers and the market. Stop promoting your product like your the good guy when you dont even have the balls to show your ebay store. Until you do, pipe down.
“zero money pokemon cards”
need no more to say. You can’t even look at the word ebay store without convulsing with fear. That’s because you sell small zero money pokemon cards
DISTANT yourselves from anyone involved in the Pokemon Scandal right now. DO NOT haze your view of anyone involved because they were"nice" , “helped the community” “meet him at a show, nice guy”. “here on a forum for years”
All criminals were not criminals at one time. Just do not associate yourselves by backing a person associated with the scam that went on recently.
The best scammers are always nice and fool innocent people. STAY AWAY.
Heard a influencer on Youtube saying “if you dont know him personally , you are in the peanut gallery, you know nothing…” (Paraphrasing).
Had to laugh at that statement. You dont have to know O.J persinally , You dont have to know a scammer personally to know they are guilty. IT IS WHAT IT IS.
Even convicted murderers have character witnesses… “he is such a good guy” “he would never do that” …
DONT risk your reputation backing up a scammer. There are lots of scammers in this current Beta pokemon scandal… STAY AWAY from them. FAR FAR AWAY.
