Hey guys so although the market is pretty saturated at the moment with Sun and Moon stuff, I REALLY like the hyper rare look of cards. Recently I started collecting some of the hyper rares in the set in PSA 10 only paying $70-$90 at max per card. I currently own umbreon, espeon, and solgaleo.
Now my question is, am I retarded? lol… Seriously though, would it be a safe bet to assume the English hyper rares in PSA 10 would retain about $70+ in value over time even with the saturation? I personally do not mind if they ever go up in value as long as they retain the value I purchased them at, at the very least… ALSO, I do not plan on collecting ALL of the hyper rares, only the ones that catch my collecting eye lol.
Thanks for any input guys! (:
I haven’t checked the pop, but from recent eBay sold listings, it seems like you did well. Which at those prices, surprises me a bit, because I thought I saw a bunch is PSA 10 full arts go for around $30, so $90 for hypers seemed high, but the Eeveelutions should surely command a good price compared to what you paid.
All i can say is look at the mega charizard ex full art in evolutions. At first they sold for $300 during the first 2 months of release. Everyone thought that they would make a great investment piece and probably bought many ungraded copies to sit on since it is a charizard and it is a full art and it is a mega evolution. Now they stand at $80 a piece with nearing 600 PSA10s in population. Even the most popular pokemon cant escape demand and saturated supply. Dont forget, Evolutions is still in print for at least another 6 months. Sun & Moon could be different but if everyone feels the same way, they would only grade popular hyper rares like umbreon, espeon, solgaleo and alolan ninetales in guardians rising. My bet is newer cards moving forward of sun & moon wont hold much value. There is bound to be a glass floor for value, but who knows, maybe there might be a spike after the set is out of print.
Personally I would check out population and see price movement. It is what chok says, the Zard EX from Evolutions tanked when the new print run arrived. I think especially the Eeveelution HR’s will tank just because all Eevee’s have a very high fan base and always are in season. Umbreon and Espeon will probably see more PSA’s then the others due to this.
But… I don’t know population and print quality of HR’s in Sun and Moon. Haven’t pulled any myself so I can’t judge them overall. On the other hand, if you feel good with 70$ a card there is nothing to say against it.
Yeah, the pop is slightly high and I assume it will just get higher at least until the set goes out of print. Here are the pop numbers from psa. Although I don’t feel as if they would drop sub $70 considering the rarity of hyper rares being pulled in the first place compared to full arts in the set. hmmm…
