Pokemon Art Academy Illustration Contest Discussion Thread

@snap I hadn’t even thought about exchanging the cards with other winners, that’s a great idea if someone decides to do so!

@snap

Could work the other way, some people could lose interest (i would). Of course some people have managed to obtain a few of them so that keeps those people keen.

If I had won the first thing I would have done is contact the other winners and organise trades to get a complete set for the winners then burn the rest gary style. Only around 22 complete sets would exist with no chance of building one!

Haha…I love the way you think;)

Your campfire rant inspired me!

I am pretty sure destroying Pokémon cards is a major mortal sin.

Which three winners are you talking about?

I’ve managed to track down a lot of them, but yes most sadly are not selling

How about you actually list which ones aren’t selling, for the rest of us, instead of some vague acedote, please?

I for one would really like the Mew card, but I also don’t want to pester someone who you know already isn’t selling.

So, list please.

And as a general note for people in this thread: Vagueness is annoying. Don’t do it. Thanks.

@eeveeevolutioner53

sorry to say but all three of those winners are not selling their cards

Which three winners are you talking about?

yeah i own 3 already and know of 2 more that will be selling soon. I know of at least 5 (sorry to say) that are not selling AT ALL

1. the sabeleye one
2. goomy art
3. rinas gourgiest and ghosts
4. gabi’s chespin
5. mireil’s kyogre

I would love to find the mew card but its like he/she dissapeared off the face of the earth.

I can confirm these are not selling. I also own three and got two more on there way. I’ll post which ones when they arrive I have a couple of doubles if anyone ever wants to trade x

[pokemontrader]

1. Sableye is not selling from what I’ve been told.
2. Goomy is only selling to close friends & family, not selling to the general public.
3. Gourgeist is not selling, only trading for the other cards.
4. Chespin is not selling, because they want to keep them all.
5. I haven’t heard of Kyogre or Kecleon selling but have yet to speak to them personally.

I guess the easiest way to get one will be checking his ebay from time to time to see if he puts up another

Ah, didn’t think about that possibility. My bad

[espeon1993]

It finally arrived 4-22 and should have another two on the way with doubles https://instagram.com/p/8nvxrJhzqO

Is it signed on the actual card?

Hey its signed on a sleeve inside the casing and NOT on the card just to let you all know lol

[woolsluk]

Ah right, I was hoping you would say it wasn’t! I was thinking though, if the owners signed like every copy apart from say like 5-10 and then got rid of the signed copies but kept the 5-10 for a few years then the unsigned cards could be worth bank!

Now that’s marketing genius lol. I had thought of putting a sharpie dot on the back of each so they couldn’t get a 10, except for 5 that would be graded 10s (you could grade and crack non 10s then dot them).

I feel like signing them is better because they still have more value than if someone has purposefully made it so others can’t get 10s as in with the sharpie dot idea, you could just say they are all signed and that way because they are such a limited card the signed copies lose no value, 3 years down the line though the unsigned copies surface and would easily be worth maybe up to 5 times the value of one of the signed copies at the time which I imagine would still be pretty high because of the known limited print numbers!
