We need a “seldom spoken but insightful opinion thread”. Or rename this “the giant opinion thread”
Is that a popular or unpopular opinion?

To be fair, I’m not even referring to him. I’m referring to other newer YouTubers who have zero track record other than criticizing other people.
And what’s funny is some of these people clearly have potential if they would just create actual content.

If you’ve gotten to the point of childish and vitriolic comment sections, with very little to no quality comments then you should probably delete your channel and start a new one. I’d say this is a general rule for any public platform!
This of course assumes you WANT to be taken seriously, and to have some positive impact, as some people “Just want to see the world burn.” *(Though I will say, if working havoc is your goal, then congratulations… (?) I’m still not watching it.)

Autographed cards are over valued.
Supply can significantly increase with each signing event and contract forbidding artist to sign will eventually end.

I agree with the supply. These were the first signings in years outside of Japan. Honestly after these recent events, I would genuinely be scared for peoples safety if Sugimori or someone who hasn’t signed in ages did a signing today.

Booster box packaging doesn’t carry nostalgic collector value, and IM[U]O, it’s not nearly as valuable as a collectible as the packs (sealed respectively).
For years, I’ve been a collector of empty packaging. I could never justify spending the money on sealed stuff, and I’d rather set that sealed stuff back as an investment, not to keep, unlike my pack wrapper collection. As I look at some empty boxes going up for sale lately, I find this to be more and more true.

Since there are quite regular box breaks of old sets from YouTubers, maybe Twitch streamers, where do we think all those pack fresh cards end up?
The YTers never give a shit about commons etc. even for first edition when those could be some of the best quality in the world. I doubt the buyers end up grading all their pulls. Bit of a waste really.

Sad to think about. But I think it depends on your perspective. For people who just got into Pokémon, their best days are ahead of them
