I’ve never thought about this but it’s an excellent point.
Now I’m asking myself, “If counterfeit Pokemon cards became indistinguishable from authentic ones and the market got flooded, would I still collect?”
I honestly don’t know.
Oh god, imagine the price of slabs if this happened?!
Raw would become unreliable, so everyone would turn to graded cards, using the cert numbers to calculate whether the card was slabbed pre-counterfit apocalypse, and use that as a measure of safety.
Only way I see Pokémon losing its value, is via a slow death ala early 2000’s loss of popularity, or current young collectors growing up to only chase their childhood grails (while we get old and die off), which tanks the overall vintage market and the franchise limps on as a SwSh fuelled zombie.
