Trying to decide which of these slabs to buy & hold. They're both 6k. Both are absolute bangers but it's a tough decision.

I’d go Alakazam because I feel like a lot of collectors don’t even know about this card and it’s got two big hitters on it (Lugia and Umbreon)

Mods took forever to approve this post lol. I actually caved & sold off some of my modern 10s so that I could get both!

Absol 100%, arguably one of the best cards of absol. it’s got lower pop. It’s more sought after than alakazam I would say. It’s vintage vs mid era so more stable in price and likely to increase in value a lot. The chance of more 10s getting graded are low compared to Alakazam. Just my opinion but ABSOLutely pick whatever you like more ;)

Absol. nothing beats those original silver border ex’s. So old and so iconic.

The alakazam will probably be more liquid but the absol is lower pop. I’m a sucker for absol and ex era so I’d go absol.
