Hey Zig Forums... I posted this picture in 2018. The charizard there cost 120$. Today the same card has had a few auctions over the 1000$ threshold. The Japanese charizard was 40$ and now going 200$+ in auctions.
I've spent about 10,000$ alone in 2019 and my stack is worth well over 60,000$. Almost all cards doubled but some have more than 10x. Especially my Lugia and gold star rayquaza (not pictured)

Lol when the economy is destroyed nobody will buy your cards.
Effective price 2021: $0
You havent made a penny until you sell.
that's useful advice
thanks
Pokemon cards are mass produced so only cards in good condition and graded will go for more than a 100$. Unless ofcourse they're wotc 1st edition or low print cards.
Np fren, hope you turn your profits into more profits and live comfy and happy.
should i sell pic related now or hodl?
It's true though. I was over 234,000$ profit during the bullrun and ended up getting out at 33,000$. I'd have been better off only doing BTC and holding, but all my altcoins still haven't recovered but they're what got me that much profit in the first place. I 15x on shit like bounty0x
yeah of course. it pained me a bit when I found all my old cards and looked up some of the prices they were going for.
Any advice on the collectibles game? Is there anything you see undervalued now that might have a good ROI in say, ten years?
Get it graded for like 15$

It's hard to say if it's worth it to sell now or not. I feel as if the cards are overpriced but people are happy paying the prices. If it's stimulus money driving the prices then they might retrace in the future.
Yeah haha I’ve been buying some of them and saving them in cases. Not sure if it’ll do anything I did it for fun.
I don’t know if I really care about 2-3000 tho
Video games are popular with millenials/lategeny/zoomers. While it's already expensive I wouldn't be surprised to see sealed games like Pokemon Red hitting upper six digits.
I meant upper five digits

I've thought about collecting Yu-gi-oh cards but I'm not sure if they already topping
Pokemon is still pulling in good money and a global franchise. Pokemon Go in 2019 made almost a billion dollars in revenue alone. The fact it was approved for a movie too (Detective Pikachu) shows that investors have faith in the brand.
Yugioh not so well. Some investors have been buying up staples though like Blue eyes white dragon and dark magician.
I have the first 5 full sets in prestine condition I have had as a kid cause i was autistic and have them all. I still have them, what would they be worth?

This is the most expensive card based on my research.
How stupid would it be to buy one and hold? (Maybe not that exact one necessarily if I can find it cheaper).
Depends on condition as well as print run. Are they 1st edition or unlimited?
Pokemon card investing is a bit different than other things as condition is what people pay for. Millions of these cards were printed so that's all we have. A perfect card "PSA 10" will usually go for 6-7x more than a pack fresh card "PSA 9". Most pack fresh cards don't get 10s because of printlines as well as centering of the picture relative to the card borders.
I have all the the sets from the very first base set too neo Genesis. All of them completed. After that I stopped collecting full collections of cards. They are probably all atleast 8 or 9s cause i would ask my uncle to sleeve them and put them into the folders as a kid. He ran a card shop so he gave me packs whenever he ran tournaments
It's best to stick with the first few releases as well as household names. I don't play Yugioh so I have no info on that card and people with nostalgia might not either. Other then that "trophy cards" which are cards that are given to tournament winners or through contests.
I'd say 20,000$ if majority of the holos can get a 9. But it would cost a couple thousand dollars to grade as bulk submissions cost 8$ a card and that's around 400 cards?
where do I get these cards?
figure out what zoomers love now
buy some amounts
dump on them 20 years later when they'll collect shit out of nostalgia
do you even know what cs go is cunt
way less sapphire/ruby knifes than charzards or butcoin
Yea it would cost a pretty penny to get everything graded. Where could you go to sell the whole collection as is?
Meh, I have Dragonballz cards that will put those pokemon cards to shame.
Sure
I'd sell each set separately and not all sets together. Or I'd only grade the holo cards and sell them as individual cards
Ebay, they sell for $400 if available.
Zoomers are too soulless to experience nostalgia
Okay. I'll see what price I can get for them then
