>Pokemon cards are now selling for hundreds of thousands to millions of dollarsWhat the fuck is going on
>>543878228since 2020, if not earlier, the entire american economy has been a series of speculative bubbles.
>>543878228>Pokemon cards are now selling for hundreds of thousands to millions of dollarsThey aren't.Those listings stay up all the time bc no one actually buys them
>>543878228It's mostly how jews transfer dirty money to their pets.
>>543878352anon, those cards were sold at auction
>>543878228Pokemon card collectors need to be put to death. I can't get any cards to build a fucking deck because of those raging faggots.
>>543878228reminder the people operating brick and mortar card stores are just as degenerate as the niggers who rob them. I pressure my local representatives to shut these stores down and you should too. they are a legitimate danger to your neighborhood.
>>543878324Not the entire, NVIDIA, AMAT, Micron, Intel, AMD, and a bunch of smaller chips and AI adjacent hardware has been multiplying production and selling out. Their revenue reports are 100% all real hardware sales. No speculation about it. Buy FSELX if and Global X AIQ if you want to just make more money than your job.
>>543878411ok, so they were "sold" as a money laundry at an auction no different from Andy Warhol paintings instead of sitting up on ebay collecting dust.
>>543878424You're a jew.
>>543878493No I’m just not interested in card stock printed with anime animals for children, grow up. I hope a nigger shoots you in the face and steals your bulbasaurs.
>>543878490there are cards selling for almost half a mil that were only worth a few k just a few years ago.pokemon community believes something strange is going on and these sales are not organic.if its money laundering then its kind if weird it millions put into just 1 card instead of spreading it out.
>>543878228Who pays for this?
i have a ton of old bulk holos from the e reader generation and theyre all hundreds of dollars. scalpers are going insane for them. just keep holding, peak pokemania wont happen til 50th anniversary in 20 years.
>>543878722Not any more. Paying retarded amounts of money for pieces of cardboard has been normalized now, thanks to influencers like Logan Paul.Literally no one would bat an eye at you laundering large sums of money with a PSA graded card.Its no different than "buying" a work of art that looks like it was made by a 6 year old.
Im taking great pleasure in imaging these things getting thrown into dumpster by gen beta kids like so many beanie babies and collectable plates
>>543878733my question toothe typical 40 year old nintendo fan still clinging on to his childhood can't afford to drop even a fraction of that money and they're the only ones I would expect to care about rare pokemon cards
>>543878733that's an antisemitic question
>>543878733>>543878880criminals use these card auctions to launder money.
>>543878228I have an OG 1st print Alakazam what is it worth?
>>543878228the extreme .1% of cards sell for this. who cares. quit comparing it to common things like social security.
I really need to get my old pogeyman cards graded and sold before this bubble pops
>>543878228Money laundering
>>543878228Companies laundering money to themselves to trick normies into starting tulip mania with their otherwise worthless product.
>>543878228This entire collectable card market is fake and gay and I refuse to play
>>543878228You'll never convince me this isn't just money laundering. No one actually legitimately buys a piece of paper with cartoon animals from a videogame for 90s toddlers for millions of dollars.
>>543878722No, because doing it all on one card will trick normies into panic buying them thinking they'll get the next big card
>>543879565Nah I got some that are worth 50k total but 50k in the grand scheme of things is nothing for me so I rather roll the dice and wait 20 years
> Who sold it?That's a secret. > Who bought it?That's a secret.
Two things are happening:1) No faith in the US dollar2) Rich people getting even richer and running out of things to buy. This small stuff that's expensive is very valuable for money laundering or keeping your ill-gotten gains mobile.
>>543878228Sounds like money laundering to me
>>543878324And money laundering
>>543878228This isnt new. People sold collectibles or similarly art before for millions. Its just because its pokemon or influencers clickbaiting with this shit
>>543878228Money is worth less every day, these are wooden nickels.
>>543878475Does that count when they’re selling to a speculative ai market?
sounds like whales are creating a marketyou know, TPTB have a new hobby for the goyim to enjoy, more dreams to weave around the world they own <3
Pokemon 10 reveal this November it's set in SEA
>>543879565grading is only worth it if you have cards that are worth thousands. if you don't get it done by the two most expensive grading companies then nobody will buy your card, not even if it's a 10.
>>543878228>What the fuck is going onsome people have too much money and not enough smarts
I see that shitty children's trading cards have replaced modern art as the money laundering subject of choice.
so like how and where do you sell that stuff?
>>543881031pokemon cards give the goyim the illusion of participating
>>543878807the USD wont exist by then. sell now before real currency ends
wait, what? i have like 3 binders full of original pokemon cards, apparently every card plus copies my nephews and nieces told me they didnt want them anymore and gave them to me. one binder looks like cards used to play, the others are in perfect condition in plasticdo i be a decent person and give them back to them or sell them like a jew?
>>543878228>IRS hates this one simple trick!ahhhh, now i understand this scam.
>>543879419right. your non-1st edition cards are pretty much worthless
>>543878228People began fighting over them recently here too along with some huge scams,lawsuits and store robberies which i thought only happens in the US. I think it's a good investment,one card that i bought 3 years ago tripled in value but i like it too much to sell it.
>>543879365$4
>>543878228money laundering
>>543878324Since at least 1980 for sure.
>>543878880The typical 40 year old Nintendo fan learned software development 20 years ago and worked up the corporate ladder.
Did anyone here actually try to sell their old cards for ridiculous money and succeeded?I dont want to pay for expensive grading process only to be left high and dry
>>543878228Jews have convinced the world they are valuable. It's a fad. The bubble will pop.
How's your monkey nfts going?
They are worth nothing.All those cards were made on mass production machines.If there were indeed any value, the chineses would be mass producing 1:1 perfect replicas and would be selling for 1/1000 of the top price. And people would be buying all they could.
>>543882816Isn't that what grading is for? To establish they weren't faked like this.My concern is that once graded it's just criminals selling and buying cards between themselves to wash blood off their money
>>543882515Im contemplating after seeing this. I use tk collect them as a child and still have my cards ina folder. I think j have all the original set. Some are 1st edition.
>>543878228this isnt real buying and selling. It's just as organic as only fans whores making billions. Some politicians needed money cleaned and this was the way
>>543881180It takes effort to store and sell things. I’ve given away my old Xbox and don’t expect to get them back now that it’s worth some thing
>>543878228Money laundering and avoiding taxes because Pokemon cards aren't legal assets.
>>543878424Describe in detail what a law outlawing card shops would look like, and how it doesn't violate the first amendment.
LET'S RIP A PACK
>>543878636>be miserable like me>I order people to shut these down>no you don’t dude you have 0 powerKys
>>543878228GDP is growing, have you seen pokemon impact on GDP, i bet people without pokemon cards have small GeedeepeeYou cant achieve much without pokemon cards
>>543886385pikachu cards are much more liquid and profitable than british or french bonds stop your boomer nonsense
>>543878228So some guy on ssi who was pokemon nerd put that card up for auction and that 2.7 mil doesnt affect his ss check?
It's almost like the rich have too much money.
>>543878228>Pokemon cards are now selling for hundreds of thousands to millions of dollarsmoney laundering
>>543878228>Doesn't know about paper memecoins
I guess my shit from 1999/2000 is worthless because the cards were used and not pristine bullshit
>>543878228Young people have lost faith in the system and now form micro economies off of nostalgic consumer entertainment and betting on anything from nfts, meme-coins and sports betting.Its not a good sign.I know people who are playing this game.
>>543879341Hey, cool it with the anti semitic remarks
>>543889797>Young people have lost faith in the system and now form micro economiesNo they're just gambling because they have to gamble. There is no legitimate path to success on offer unless you are some privileged group. You have to gamble or you have to become a secret second thing.
>>543878490>Okay, so you're right, let me tell you why I'm a massive faggot who thinks his opinion means something.Fixed it for you
My shit ass step dad kept and destroyed all my shit after my mom died when I was 15. Had so many cards and I was an autistic collector so they were in good condition. That was 20 years ago but I could still kill that guy.
>>543878475They're future hardware sales """funded""" by an incestuous cycle of debt.
>>543890176>good condition If it ain't pristine with no fingerprints it ain't selling
it's a grift possible thanks to goyim stupidity
>>543878228It's the retro graded market all over. You still hear stories of some random super mario 1 selling for a million dollars because it has a plastic case and a number on it.
>>543878421Maybe you should have stocked up on the cards for your child's hobby when you were a child. Faggot.
>>543878228great buy. the more he paid the better. selling for that number means he can put it up for auction immediately with a 10mill minimum bid and probably see an impressive profit.
>>543880595Nvidia has practical AI (porn) so it's not a bubble. LLM & Agents might go bust though.
>>543890891its value is currently indeterminate beyond 8.4 million dollars. but how many others that hold them will sell for less? if it sells for 10million- all of their cards are worth 10 million dollars so nobody should be selling and waiting to see if bitco i mean pokemon cards is what defines currency now.you could make a cool raincoat pikachu off the the sweenstein portfolio if you know what I mean.
I don't think Brazil is ready for 2027
Unless your old cards are literally immaculate and you can get them graded PSA 10, they arent worth selling really. Just keep them for sentimental sake. I think the market is being manipulated
fuck pokemon
>>543890730It's a good board game to be fairwife and I were bored several years ago and got two of the starter decks to play the game one nightIt was actually kind of fun and the rules are super simple because it's made for kids.
>>5438910242027 will have aspiring rappers wearing raincoat pikachu medalions to show their wealth instead of metal chains. you will see it as tattoos and then surgeries to resemble it. entire sexual orientations dedicated to it. this pokemon card will be transformatory for the modern economy. pokemon cards are the new money.
>>543878228money laundering just like Onlyfans
>>543878228Money laundering, like nft or whatever
Nintendo is an evil company that is the root of the tranny epidemic in the US
>>543891363i grew up with nintendo and i'm not a trannyi'm an italian plumber who kills turtles
>>543891263this nigga finna have dugtrio in his booty
I only have that golden mew ticket they gave you for watching the first pokemon movie in cinemas, how much will nerds give me?
>>543891430Let me explain. Nintendo makes children's games. Pokemon's target demographic is age 6-10. But Nintendo markets their products to "all ages" for that extra profit. So instead of being in the kiddie aisle next to veggitales where it belongs, it's in the *main aisle* being sold to adults. As a result you have a bunch of grown ass men in their 20's and 30's obsessing over cutesy little nintendo characters. Nintendo keeps these people in a state of permanent adolescence using weaponized nostalgia, and half of them troon out. Pokemon is afflicted with a plague of 30 year old men buying their games intended for children and the. Whining about the quality of the gameplay. Demanding competitive modes, harassing the dev team to include sexy anthro evolutions. Nintendo delinerately baits those people along with upskirt shots of sexualized little girls in the newer games, and barely disguised innueodos all over the place. This is just par for the course fof Japan, many japanese companies make billions of dollars pushing lolis. Look no further than Fate: Grand Order.Nintendo is a sick company and Nintendo trannies should all die. Pokefags are the worst of them too
>>543891810Some bullet points-- Pokemon has extremely simplistic, dumbed down gameplay mechanics for children. In order to make the game harder speedrun trannies have adopted a set of rules attempting to turn these children's playground slides into a competitive sport for their autism.-- Nintendo heavily relies on gambling mechanics, and first blew up selling roulette cardpacks to soccer moms in the 90's. It's the first big gacha franchise to hit the market.-- Nintendo blatantly rips off their designs from other media. Sometimes including really low effort shit like "a pair of scissors", half the original 100 pokemon are just ripoff of Dragonsquest monsters and monsters from old Japanese monster movies. It's extremely lazy slapdash shit you expect from a shitty japanese developer. "Gotta catch em all"And give us a bunch of money you dumbfuck gaijins hehehe
>>543878228Remember when pokemon cards first became a thing and this nigga reigned supreme.
>>543892172>reigned>past tensehim and dratini were my favs
>>543892172Reminder Charizard is a blatant ripoff of the Great Dragon from Dragonsquest. Over 1/2 the original pokemon are just shitty ripoff of other media.Hitmonchan was originally supposed to be Mike Tyson, and Hitmonlee Jackie Chan. But after Tyson's rape scandal they deleted his name, and swapped thing around a bit, so Hitmonchan (jackie chan) became the pinching one instead, and hitmonlee (bruce lee) became the kicking one.This is how unimaginaitive they are,.like typical asians everything is a ripoff of something else.
>>543892376>and jewtendo still had the audacity to try suing pocketrocket lmao even
>>543892172I like how my first edition dark charizard is still just as worthless as it's always been
>>543878421>I can't get any cards to build a fucking deck because of those raging faggots.Wat? Singles are cheaper than any other card game thanks to ludicrous printing. Stop being retarded
>>543878383>>543878228THISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSMONEY LAUNDERING AT ITS FINEST
>>543892315Would it surprise you that every single monster from old Godzilla movies has its own ripoff pokemen?Did you knoe Donkey Kong is literally a King Kong ripoff? Nintendo lie, cheat, steal, the asian way
>>543878424Depends if they are official retailers seeking msrp or are glorified scalpers themselves
>>543879365Holographic first edition base set is several hundred
>>543878228How long before a rogue nation begins flooding the trading card market with superior, state-sponsored counterfeit Pokémon cards? Because counterfeit cards are easier to make than legal tender.
>>543878733Disney adults
>>543878228one of my retard friends makes fake cards and makes thousands a month selling them to scalpers specificallyhe hates scalpers with a passion for whatever reason
>>543892738How many Dragonsquest characters can we steal?Answer: all of themNow buy my roulette cardpack that totally isn't gambling. Don't you want to be as cool as the other kids?
>>543878421too much ass on that cirno
>>543893115Maybe not enough for our baka tomboy
>>543892548Every now and then I look up cards I used to have, before my retarded 13-year-old self traded my entire binder of Pokemon cards away for like 6 packs of YuGiOh cards.None of the cards I had 25 years ago are worth anything special now, which blows my mind since you'd think the older cards would be going up in value due to scarcity. It is funny how one guy wants $52,000 while another wants $45.
>>543878228Scalpers are going to hell
>>543893298Grade niggers are insane. I'm still kicking myself for not buying a lot of 10 PSA 9-10 first ed Charizards for 4k back when PSA first started grading pokemon cards because I thought there is no way people would spend more than 500 per card
>>543893403>how much is this worthless 2 inch square of cardboard worth?>$ 1 million>because it has a cartoon face printed on itLmao
>>543893298>>543893403How come indian scammers haven't started cloning these?Just copy the plastic case and rating documents of a real rated card, along with the barcode and everything and sell it 20 times to different people. If they look it up by the serial numbers, the rating site will tell them it's legit.
>>543893298hey that's the card I was talking about before, I should put some meme rating and sell it for thousands of dollars then
>>543893403You should not kick yourself for making obviously terrible financial decisions.>>543893644Because even Indians know that real people don't engage with this market.
I was too old to play with pokemon cards, seemed gay to me.
>>543893698You should not kick yourself for NOT making obviously terrible financial decisions. Important typo.
>>543893644Pokemon fans are fat retards who were born to be exploited. That's their role in life, it's why they exist. It it's not you, it'll just be a jeet
>>543893719I knew what you meant>>543893644The big ones are verified before purchasing. China has been making really good counterfeits for about 5 years.
>>543893644The ratings are done by one guy, not a real company, and TCG autists would notice a forgery immediately.
>>543878324This phenomenon is global. The prices hold overseas. Your explanation falls short.
>>543878228So the Pokémon company can just print $840 million any time they want?
>>543878228Exploitation of a small child's death. I'm not kidding.
>>543894432Completely different card retard
>>543878228My pricechart says my ungraded collection is almost worth 5k. My Lugia's alone IF they were a perfect 10 would be worth $30k each, but alas they arent as they sat in my binder. Good condition juat not perfect
@543878228One post fucking faggot nigger.I'm sure that's one of a dozen or even one of a kind.Everything is overprinted now.
>>543878228Czech it out
The CIA is down.

>>543878228beanie babies for millennials
white genocide
still playing with Pokémon cardsyour women are getting raped yo
>>543893298It's like MTG, the only cards worth a shit are the 1st edition that were hard to get and limited. The leap from 1st gen to base set is insane
>>543890970I wouldn't bet on that, the AI porn market is incestuous to put it mildly
>>543893023>retard friends makes fake cards and makes thousands a month selling them to scalpers specifically>hates scalpers>1000s a monthIf you think hes retarded then you are trully the reatrded one
NEET here what can i buy to scalp? give me specific names of the box i need to buy at target or walmart please
>>543893883The american economy IS the global economy.
>>543878324When are you retards going to realize an item literally backed by nostalgia is effectively worth the same as gold? It's unique, one of a kind, limited in quantity and cannot ever be reproduced in a way that ever affects the original printings.
>>543881180Fake ass bot post. Fucking everyone knows base set shit is made of gold now. My shadowless Caterpie is literally a $50 bill now.
>>543890236Retard lmao.
>>543892065This nigga saw the Chimpokomon episode of South Park 20 years ago and never let go. Shoe is not real you retard.
>>543893298A movie promo that was mass produced to shit, owned by literal millions and should logically be worthless even in the most ideal conditions, being $45 isn't impressive to you?
>>543892937Every retard know nothing about card games says this just like every retard don't know how to computer says bitcoins can be easily faked lol.
>>543893644You know you can literally track the ownership of cards that have been graded with those codes right? Literally all it would take is for them to do exactly that to see no, that guy can't possibly own the card he says he does.
Adult men buying pokemon cards is embarrassing
>>543896294Literally anything. That's why scalper is becoming on par with nigger in this community, literally anything this company prints gets valued by some retard later on so it's really a question of if you can get your hands on any product in the first place. Meanwhile Magic and Yu-Gi-Oh rots on the shelves hahaha.
>>543881133>illusionIn what way?It's gambling they are all gamblers. Most are buying a packs for a few bucks to sell a hit for hundreds or thousands.
>>543893403You bought bitcoin/eth instead right? If you didn't well fuck you're retarded.
>>543896487>paper printed in the last decade>atoms millions of years old, manual labor needed to pull it out of the ground, ship it to be refined, ship it to be minted, stands the test of timeYa bro. Pokemon is just like gold and nothing like beanie babies.
>>543897356Ah but an adult man who sells Pokémon cards... that is prestigious!
>>543897723if i lived in canada i would be going to the fraser river every single day and panning for gold, its constantly sloughing off the mountainside and falling into the water, like an infinite free money glitch
>>543878722It's either market manipulation or money laundering. I buy 10 og Charizard. My buddy buys 10 as well.He buys 1 from me for 100k. I buy one from him for 100k. Market now supports a valuation of my collection at 1 million dollars. Part 2 insurance fraud. Mysterious fire burns my house down... 1 million dollar payout turning 70k into 1 million
>>543882954I mean it's isn't a lost art. It's foil and cardboard. It would be reasonable to create a indistinguishable fake.
>>543891072No old card is getting a 10 these days. PSA system is 100% under grading retro cards because they know retards will pump up the basis of high grade leading to more people wanting to grade => to profit. If they graded the surge with accurate number of 10s supply increases prices flatten or drop. People aren't curious if there old crappy cards are worth the $50 lottery.
>>543897723You retards claim it's so easy to fake them why don't you just go and do it and make millions of dollars off of us retards? Oh yeah, it's because those printers literally don't exist anymore and you cannot fake 30 years of age overnight LMAO. It's literally valuable for the same reason bitcoin is valuable.
>>543878228They're just speculative stocks. If you were paying attention to the crypto boom a few years ago, it's no different. People selling eachother bags trying to eek out a profit margin. No one even plays the game, not even the kids.
>>543893644You can get chink bootleg pokemon cards from chinese sellers but they're very obviously lower in quality than the real thing.
>>543878733Retards hoping they wont be the one bagholding at the end
>>543879341Yeah you can transport a single card through something like an airport gate without any trouble, whereas carrying fat stacks of money will draw attention.
>>543878421Play digimon tcg or Sorcery instead of the mega jewish Pokemon and Magic the gathering.I will never recommend yugioh since a niglet stole my deck in 2006.
>>543899949The end is realistically over 100 years from now or only two weeks away once the bombs fall and WWIII begins. That's what you're really betting your money on.
