how? did you just hear about graded cards yesterday?

>>58316040
Its a term only long time(10+ years) collectors know about. Your average newfag doesnt even know what a pop report is, there is no universe where modern psa 10s should ever be over $100. The anons who hate on low pop grails are usually jealous newfags who realize they have been duped into participating in a pyramid scheme by buying modern.

That's how much japanese booster boxes cost in japan, it's only 3x the price because of shipping/tariffs/scalping for online or once already brought over
>>
>>58317341
how are they selling Korean at 30€ in Europe when shipping costs should be similar to Japan?
>>
>>58317393
you know korean msrp is supposed to be around $9 right?
no demand and cheaper quality, that $30 IS the scalp and includes all fees accounted for, in fact I think only certain sets are even expensive in korea, like eevee heroes korean version is like $110

Right? At that point just throw them a bone with free express tracked shipping, God damn.

Don't open.
Wait and buy charizard as single when it will be down.
Keep those boxes sealed.
The magic of sealed is that they contain the chase card until they opened. This why sealed will always be the way.
If you bought boxe(S) (more than one) then you probably can afford buying charizard.

The new gold cards, named Mega Hyper Rares, have a pull rate of 1 in 1,260 booster packs. This is 7x rarer than the rarest gold cards in the Scarlet & Violet series. It would take 35 booster boxes to find just one MHR, or about six cases. This is, by far, the scarcest rarity to release in recent memory -- if not ever. Their current market price is $500 to $600.

They're Pokémon that also appeared in the same set as that card, BREAKthrough, or to be more specific, Blue Shock. The sets from XY BREAK era tell a story about parallel worlds. This card and the counterpart Mewtwo EX from Red Flash feature a legendary/mythical, a Pokémon that can undergo BREAK Evolution, and a Pokémon fitting of the world's setting, for red, that's Cresselia, Chesnaught, and Magnezone.

This why i'm all in Inferno X/Phantasmal flames.
I skipped b/w and MegaEvolution entirely and spending money on charizards only.

Most of normies and investors don't even know that there are two mega-chairzards (some actual poketubers thought Gigantamax Charizard from Sword-Shield and Mega Charizard is exact same thing)

As soon as normies realize they need both Mega Charizards for their collections - Mega Charizard X will rise up in price because it's a set of TWO charizards.

im so happy to be at the start of this hype, bros!!! I feel like 2022-2023 again when people were shitting their pants over Evolving Skies and Lost Origin

it's so much fun!

Are they fucking psychotic? We're in the middle of a year long crisis and they pull this bullshit?

clarity, their choice will influence yours, and if you're playing a supporter on your turn it should benefit you.
>>
>>58320599
its a shifting leverage card. if you have a shit hand and your opponent is steam rolling you. why they do it first may just be series of operation.

tl;dr TPCi picked her up to commentate TCG matches but she quit after Worlds because of the degeneracy in the hobby and TPCi either enabling it or doing nothing to stop it. Basically she felt like she was walking on eggshells being forced to talk about the TCG like none of the scalping and scamming was going on at all and you could just go to a store and buy packs.

TCPi just changed the rules of collecting war and made new crap rarer than the stuff that was released for the past couple years.

shut up, new stuff best stuff.

Why are grocery stores allowed to get away with this???
How can they put gambling mechanics in buying produce that any child can just buy?
It's not fair that fruit is being scalped at farmers markets!

It's depressing to think about how much unwanted bulk there is piling up from all these tards tearing through packs looking for muh hits. I imagine a lot of it gets thrown away.
>>
>>58321553
>I imagine a lot of it gets thrown away.
No one is throwing away cards bro. Most collectors are placing them in a bulk box that's stashed away in a closet. It's common to see people sell off the rest or give them to kids.

HOW. There's SOOOO many fucking full art cards in this set and yet the only thing I get is THAT?? Thanks Pokemon company, guess I WILL just continue sitting on product for the foreseeable future. Fuck you.
>>
>>58321601
>sitting on product only containing 2 packs

With CRT scanners coming into play, metal tins are the best future proof meta for sealed product.

Unironically half of the cards, as per Pokellector, are full arts. If it were like Crown Zenith, there'd be a full art per pack. To open up TWO black/white packs and not pull anything at all is nuts. I'm sick of pack RNG.
>>
>>58321945
we will never get Crown Zenith rates again.
Black and White have lots of Illustration Rares but the pull rate is around 1 in 6 packs so you'll have to buy 3 tins on average to get an IR.
Other recent SV era sets had a 1 in 12 rate for IRs.
>>
>>58321961
Man that's so sad. CZ was seriously the best set released in the last 10 years for that very reason. As a result the singles market was insanely cheap too. I think if future sets wanted to fix the scalper issue they could just do CZ rates again, but let's face it, Pokemon company loves scalpers.
>>
>>58321974
>just do CZ rates again
Investmentfags were complaining about early Scarlet/Violet pull rates being too generous and the Pokemon Company listened to them. They clearly don't mind scalpers and /biz/fags.
>>
>>58321940
there like 700 bucks. fuck japanese. spend 100 bucks, wait 23 years, your big reward is a 600 buck gain.
LOOOOOOL 20k my ass. when will people stop buying japanese crap.
>>
>>58321974
>high hit rates
>no booster boxes
that's a pity system, thank god we won't have that again
151 or Prismatic with that system would be awful
>>
>>58321996
>Prismatic but every 3 packs has an eeveelution
This sounds great, fuck you mean?
>>
>>58321940
About $1000, given the price was 3 payments of $99, should have been a no brainer, 10x profit for doing 0 work

>>58321993
low risk low reward, realistically you should be grabbing both english and jp, at a certain level the more expensive things are, the harder they are to move, but japanese will never be hard to move because westerners will always settle for it if the english is too expensive, so it's guaranteed sales

no one will say no the japanese inferno x charizard if it ends up being cheaper than the english one, guaranteed easy to move
>>
>>58321999
sounds lame, rarity is supposed to mean something
not even about dollar value, but the fact that it was up to luck you even got it, and that if you want something you'll TRADE for it
>>
>>58322007
WORSE
ITS 3 PAYMENTS OF 333.32
LOOOOOOL THEY LOST MONEY, I found them on price charting for 700. where you get your numbers from?
thats 20+ year wait to LOSE 300 bucks. oh no no no no no you smug japanese collector.
>>
>>58322011
Rarity on a local scale is good. Rarity on a global scale is retarded. If the odds were 1 chase per tin or, at least, booster box, that'd be fine. But 1 chase per case is stupid and the rarity of that chase only means something to richfags. Pokemon was a lot more fun when it was just opening packs with your bros in the kitchen and trading cards, not bringing up TCGPlayer and price matching because you pulled the $400 loli card while I pulled a $300 Fartbreon.
>>
>>58321945
My mistake. I was thinking you opened an old tin of Black and White base from 2011.
>>
>>58322028
Oh nono my bad, I was talking about White Flare / Black Bolt. If I had an old BW 2011 tin I wouldn't open it i'd sell it lol.
>>
>>58322027
base set had a holo in one out of three packs
those were the best cards back then and nobody complained that they were too common.
Western Pokemon at the very least needs JP rates.

Used to watch maxmoefoepokemon (rip btw) open packs back in the day. I was still interested in the hobby at the time, but I didn't have money to buy product and I thought he was genuinely entertaining.

He's really the only person I'd watch open packs. All the other people I can't stand. Like Pokerev, Leonhart, or any whatnot streamer. They clearly don't care about the hobby and are some of the fakeist fucks I've ever seen. I'm not even joking when I say this, but those kinds of people make me sick to my stomach
>>
Is this as low as the JP M Charizard SAR is going to get or should I wait like I did the other SARs?
>>
>>58322076
I don't watch pack ripping streams or videos but I enjoy the videos from Deep Pocket Monster where he completes sets in a limited time frame by hanging out and trading with locals at card shops and conventions.

>>58320503
That Mega Manectric ex is sick dude. I love what they are doing with the Full arts this time around with the mega in the forefront and the regular in the back.

I know they are lazy since it's just 5ban, but I've always been drawn to them because of the funky patterns and colors they put in the background. Also helps that they are typically pretty cheap so you can scoop em up easily.
>>
>>58322088
I've watched a couple of videos from him. He's aight. A little too wholesome chungus for me, but I respect him a helluva a lot more than the people I mentioned before.

Bro I've checked this box in Japanese and is like 50-60 bucks,why are people drooling over it? Is it because of the golden card hype? I don't get it

Overpriced garbage,my local Chinese store sells 151 packs for that price


Also, I've wanted to buy one booster box of surging sparks just for collection. Is it worth it in long terms?
