Welcome to Pokemon investing general. Sealed, slabs, or raw?
.
I hope Delibird gives you shit for Christmas
Zard
>>61339524Idk who that is
There's some shop that sells Pokemon collectible cards among other things I've walked past a few times but I feel I'm too self-conscious of my 'tism to walk in there
Thoughts on the 151 special illustration and illustration rates of the big 3? I think these are great looking cards. I secured the charmander, chameleon, and charizard set. I also won an eBay auction for the squirtle. I think these cards are going to be in demand in the future. Especially with 151 printing coming to an end
>>61339341I broke even with my Phantasmal Flames pack breaks, spent around 200$ on packs and got 200$ in gold stars
>>61339920I’m just buying singles from phantasmal. The meowth and dewgong are sick. The charizard sir is waaaaay overvalued right now. I picked up a few sealed booster bundles to hold onto because I think sealed product is going to do well. Everyone and their mom is ripping phantasmal trying to get the zard
>>61339341sealed always wins but that doesn't mean you can't make gains on singles and have fun collecting too
Real $
>>61339899eBay is the best place to cop. Card shops are usually overpriced
>>61339740You don't know who that is and you're trading Pokemon cards. What a fucking top signal
>>61340443I prefer vintage Pokemon. That’s why I like 151 so much. My collection will do fine without the bird
>>61339496>gyaradosWtf why are these pumping? I bought a couple two years ago because I like it and they were $4-5 each. People are so stupid, they just fomo everything don't they?
>>61340649Because gyarados is cool. If you stick to collecting popular Pokemon you should do well long term. I avoid trainer cards unless I pull them from a pack.
>>61339740A little Santa bird guy whose tail is a bag. He hands out gifts and crap for fun, and his name is a play on the japanese trying to say "delivered."
>>61340683Nah I don't buy cards for investment purposes, I really just buy singles of 'mons and trainers I like. Flipping through my binders makes me happy. Just popped in here to see if discussion was decent after someone shilled /pig/ in /smg/.
>>61340715>and his name is a play on the japanese trying to say "delivered."Oh that's clever
>>61339341Based
>>61339902>Especially with 151 printing coming to an endDoes that mean they wont print any of the original 151 ever again or just the set. I haven't kept up with anything with the cards since 2006 or so.
>>61342746Just the set
