The rise in price of Pokemon cards during the last 5 years has been the closest gains in comparison to crypto in the field of collectibles.

Isn't that cars worth like $100k? I really want to buy a basic set booster box, but they're around $8k

I bought two of those base unlimited boxes in 2017. I was aiming to buy 10 but never got round to it. I will be holding them for my retirement, or perhaps for my descendants.

mother of god

i remember when i was like 7-8 years old begging my parents for $9.99 to buy a booster pack from KB Toys at the mall. the memories.

I think one was sold for $55k. Incredible price
I wonder if the newer cards will rise as hard the old ones.
Picture? How much did you get them for? And where did you find a reputable seller?

I have a box of Return to Ravnica unopened cards. I've been out of the MTG scene for a few years now but I'll probably hold onto that box for the next 30 years and maybe it'll be worth something someday. I sold my binder full of rares/mythics though when I was hard up on cash, got $600 for it. I regret it now, but what's done is done.

I got them stored away at the moment. I posted a photo of the two boxes on biz a couple of years ago with a timestamp saying something like 'biz elite investors club' with a guy wearing sunglasses if anyone here remembers. I was recommending that people buy the booster boxes as they are a no-brainer (as people keep opening the boxes, they will only become rarer). It is rare to get an asset that decreases in supply like this.

I paid £3000 for the two of them. I made contact with the guy through e bay and we worked out a sale directly through pay pal. He seemed reputable.. These days you gotta be more careful, I expect an increase in fakes. Provenance matters even more now.

You have the younger generations growing up with the new stuff now, who knows maybe they will super charge in 20 years.. Also they could go up in price from the current generation of investors, just as a trickle down from the older stuff even.

And that is the driving force that will take these boxes to $100k's in twenty years when man children actually have money

You really should sell now. When the crisis kicks in no one will be spending money on your cardboard bags.

Only 0.1% of population will have any disposable income in 20 years. The rest will be scraping by to afford meat or milk.
You are a brainlet and you didn't sell your meme collectibles now, you will be left bagholding them until you die.

Not looking to swing trade these. I would be too scared of being locked out of getting back in again.

Smart man, don't listen to that idiot

>just buy cardboard when unemployment and the economy contraction have reached all time high

You can ALWAYS tell when someone is a crossboarder.

This thread reminds me of the autist saying to buy GameStop stock

If I listened to people around me I wouldn't have whacked 3k on Pokemon cards to begin with heheh.

Still have all of my collection, some tens of thousands of cards from the base set and first few expansions that I collected as a kid in the 90s with my little white suburban weekly allowance.

I'm not stupid, I know they're not really worth a whole lot (they're not mint and I'm too lazy to go get them graded). But I also kinda don't want to sell them anyway

If you wanna see a specific mon in the orig 151 lemme know and I'll post with an updated timestamp

I got a misprinted Pokemon card, never seen any examples of it online. Wonder what it's worth sometimes.

Nice, I keep my childhood collection in its own binder separate from other stuff. Cool to have.
