The word has evolved into something of no immediate monetary value

For me it’s any card I won’t keep in a binder or graded

Everything that’s guaranteed in a pack, so commons, uncommons, rares, reverses and for the Scarlet & Violet era also holos.

For me its duplicates that I wont use. It doesnt mean they are useless, but better to call them bulk so I KNOW what I have.

I love the idea of trading $3 cards for vintage 1st edition commons and uncommons at card stores. It’s like a portal back to 2000s Books-A-Million on Pokemon Saturdays, except I get to trade all this modern bulk.

It’s not about the price for me, more about the guarantee of getting it for sure like @Ratequaza mentioned and about the card layout, an ultra rare might be worth cents but it anyway often feels more special than any regular layout card regardless if i need it or not
