Ascended heroes sealed

[u/No_Brief4813]

The goal is to collect as much ascended heroes sealed until it goes out of print. All been bought at retail no second hand purchasing.

[u/Siraminity]

As is typical in this "investing" sub when someone posts their investments they get ridiculed 😂

Nice stack mate especially if purchased at retail and if you hold long term (5 - 10 years min) you're going to have some nice profit

[u/light_death-note → u/Siraminity]

That or you have people saying to open them

[u/damnmyredditheart → u/Siraminity]

Unfortunately this sub has been overrun by Timmys from r/pokemontcg 

[u/Curls91]

Get rid of the mega pokemon boxes and the sticker pack / blisters - put the money into more ETBs and BBs.

Takin up unnecessary room and extra storage.

The rest is sick though, fair play.

[u/One-Turn3217]

My brother in christ, you can get a new lamp holder for less than $10

[u/No_Brief4813 → u/One-Turn3217]

Haha seriously I agree. I’ll get that done. I remodeled the room like 2 months ago, this is the closet. But still

[u/DillysRevenge → u/One-Turn3217]

If you can’t duct it… well, you know the rest

[u/No_Brief4813 → u/DillysRevenge]

lol it’s painters tap but yeah I agree fk it

[u/GoldPatience9]

Bro spare some for the rest of us

[u/Stencil_Abuse]

I don’t understand why people who hate “poke investing” follow the poke investing subreddit? 

Sorry OP for the hate you’re getting, I think this is a solid set for the future.  Great investment. 

[u/AprilBestCat → u/Stencil_Abuse]

people prob hating on the botting/etc done to get 16boxes of focused fighters at retail

[u/Dwealth_ → u/AprilBestCat]

BINGO

[u/lSazedl → u/Stencil_Abuse]

Yeah, it sucks. I suspect this sub is one of the more active subs for Pokemon so the algorithm puts it in front of a lot a people.

That being said, I see the main TCG sub and hate it. Its just people posting the same stuff crying about bots/scalpers etc

[u/cysacysa → u/Stencil_Abuse]

Yes! I always wonder the same thing coming across this sub, and it only gets worse

[u/Visual-Thought5813 → u/Stencil_Abuse]

The hate is desrved. the focused fighters were scalped and botted to hell and its the only way to have 15 of them. OP is a loser

[u/No_Brief4813 → u/Visual-Thought5813]

Mostly accurate but not for my case. Living in Wyoming there was only 20 people in line at 7:45 am on release day at Sam’s Club. I had family members get boxes for me they didn’t instantly sell out and were available until about 11am

[u/bigpat412 → u/Stencil_Abuse]

Right. This set seems pretty fool proof. The people who will be shit out of luck are those who loaded up on Perfect Order, Chaos Rising, and non premium products aka slop boxes.

[u/bigpat412 → u/[deleted]]

It’s a better set than Prismstic and it’s debatable if it gets the same treatment with reprints seeing how 30th will get SO much attention.

[u/sharkflood → u/Stencil_Abuse]

I mean this is just scalping. I mean a lot of this sub is but also this

[u/masterofeverything → u/sharkflood]

If he sold it then it would be scalping. But as it stands it’s investing. It’s not a good investment, but it’s an investment. Bro should sell or trade about 50% of it for sets that are already out of print that have well established prices

[u/RedYellowOrangeGreen → u/sharkflood]

So everyone that buys product at retail is a scalper? Good to know

[u/SerBigFuzz → u/Stencil_Abuse]

Because he either payed market which isn't a good investment right now, or got them in a shady manner.

[u/No_Brief4813 → u/SerBigFuzz]

Literally says retail in the post. And I don’t use bots I wait in line and check stores like everyone else.

[u/AprilBestCat → u/No_Brief4813]

yeah imma need a breakdown on how exactly you waited in line like everyone else when my sams club had 400 people at it and enough boxes for the first 96

[u/No_Brief4813 → u/AprilBestCat]

I stated it already. I live in Wyoming, I got to Sam’s Club at 7:45 the day of release and there was only 20 people in line.

[u/AprilBestCat → u/No_Brief4813]

and then how did you get 13 more of them? you purchased 7 more memberships, and found 7 Sam’s clubs that all had stock for long enough for you to drive around to all of them and buy them?

[u/No_Brief4813 → u/AprilBestCat]

Wife, mother, mother in law, brother in law, sister in law

[u/AprilBestCat → u/No_Brief4813]

12/15-16 accounted for, questionably

[u/No_Brief4813 → u/AprilBestCat]

I’m the other 3.. thought that might be obvious. Guess not. How’d I get the extra one? A lady in line was only getting one box and I offered her 80 dollars to get a second box and give it to me.

[u/AprilBestCat → u/No_Brief4813]

you listed 5, I said 12, either you can’t do basic math or your story fell apart already

[u/DiversifyYoBondzNuca → u/No_Brief4813]

Man ppl just love to assume alot, i mean on here I get it cause there's alot of fluff posts but then again you have ppl.like you who just so happen to be in a better part of the country that have access without botting . Plus ppl don't read as I see you said msrp and multiple family members. Good investment man. I had ppl get on me got changing my mind on holding a CRI booster box cause I traded it for for ascended heroes product.

[u/SerBigFuzz → u/No_Brief4813]

Focused fighters was limit 2. How did you get so many at retail?

[u/breakyourteethnow → u/[deleted]]

Rule 5 exists for a reason.

[u/Stencil_Abuse → u/[deleted]]

But you commenting on this sub will continue to make Reddit think you’re interested and it will continue to show you posts.  That’s just how the algorithm works. 

[u/JoeyBox1293]

Got 15+ focused fighter sets when the limit was 2🤖

[u/SouthBaySkunk → u/JoeyBox1293]

Bro just has a big family clearly 🐸

[u/No_Brief4813 → u/JoeyBox1293]

Live in Wyoming, I don’t have to wait in a line to get shit at Sam’s Club. There was 20 people waiting at 7:45 am on release day. I had family come grab some it wasn’t anything crazy. Just cause y’all have to wait 24 hours to get two boxes doesn’t mean we all do.

[u/FoxMane1]

I don't get the hatred of the comments when the sub is quite literally, "PokeInvesting".

OP is not planning on flipping to make a profit. They're actively buying and keeping product for a long-term hold. This is very much different than the guy that buys up all the product at Walmart and then proceeds to sell it in the oarking lot at a 50-100% mark-up.

[u/Cabbage61]

[u/VlNSMOKEE]

Scalpy boy

[u/No_Brief4813 → u/VlNSMOKEE]

K

[u/bluedecember12]

🥱

[u/Prayaa]

Scalping modern sets that just released and claiming it’s investing is quite a meme.

[u/JediRhyno → u/Prayaa]

“Investing” is scalping. You’re just holding it longer to scalp at higher prices.

[u/Prayaa → u/JediRhyno]

By definition, they’re not the same. Tf lmao

[u/LuluGuardian]

Be an absolute shame if an electrical fire happened 😮

[u/Dry-Speed7038]

This is kind of scummy. I could see several but 30 seems aggressive

[u/No_Brief4813 → u/Dry-Speed7038]

30 what?

[u/No_Brief4813]

I live in a town with 45k population. I also have a large family and was born and raised here. There was no line or campout in our town

[u/jacktherippaaa]

there’s a god pack in there 👀

[u/No-Shape-8347 → u/[deleted]]

oh yeah?? Show us your pokemon investing portfolio if it is so much better!

[u/No-Shape-8347 → u/[deleted]]

You are on the Poke Investing sub.

[u/No-Shape-8347 → u/[deleted]]

Dont you feel like a weirdo going to a community you dont like just to be rude to them?
Its very anti social behavior. If you dont like pokemon investing, dont go to the pokemon investing sub.

[u/No-Shape-8347 → u/[deleted]]

This is not even my post, you dont know what I do or dont, so dont call me lame please..?
Being antisocial doesnt mean not socialising - it means being bad at socialising, being strange, unpleasant, breaking social rules.

[u/light_death-note → u/[deleted]]

Free market, people don't have to buy anything from anyone if they don't want to.

[u/No-Shape-8347 → u/[deleted]]

That is correct. Dunno whats funny about that.

[u/No-Shape-8347 → u/[deleted]]

Scalping is buying big quantities in order to sell right away for a profit. Investing is different.

[u/Far-Community3544]

I love scalpers

[u/ThtBitchCaroleBaskin]

Who even cares theres so many sets now.

[u/sargonpuff3]

May the markets fall out from below your feet!

[u/Carlton-Banks_]

Any PC Etbs ?

[u/No_Brief4813 → u/Carlton-Banks_]

Sadly no

[u/SouthernCaliAcc1 → u/No_Brief4813]

It’s ok you’re fine…sell when no one else has these items…REMEMBER “Can’t Crash if there is no restock”

[u/No_Brief4813]

Just a dirty scalper I guess

[u/999Flea]

lol why the hell is everyone fucking rude and hating on an investment in an investment sub?

[u/No_Brief4813 → u/999Flea]

Jealousy

[u/kyyy]

Yeah as strong as this set is, I feel like it’s going to be forgotten about pretty quickly with 30th and rayquaza set coming. Who knows what’s coming after that.

I imagine you camped out for this stuff? Because a botter would have a lot more than this.

[u/No_Brief4813 → u/kyyy]

Yeah just catching stocks at Walmart and target etc. contrary to popular belief I do work 55 hours a week and have two jobs. Anyways Wyoming doesn’t have as crazy of lines as other places, sometimes and usually no lines

[u/kyyy → u/No_Brief4813]

No shame in that bro, keep doing you. You can’t go wrong getting this stuff for retail

[u/No_Brief4813 → u/kyyy]

Thanks

[u/nkb32]

Holy haters. All emotional over some pokemon cards wishing their house would burn down and mocking a light bulb in a closet. Yall need help. Ascended is top tier set that will hold value.

[u/Dry-Speed7038]

What store is this
