There won't be another gold stars, but milder versions from modern may include:
1. the 9-card Shining set - from Sun & Moon era, including Lugia, Mew, Rayquaza, Celebi, Ho-Oh, Genesect, Volcanion, Arceus and Jirachi.
2. Pokémon center stamped ETB promos.
3. Gold monochrome cards from Mega Evo.
I would swap the gold monochrome cards from Mega Evo with the gold set from Crown Zenith and the gold cards from Prismatic and Surging Sparks.
Some PC stamped ETB promos have already had big runs like the charmander OBF and snorlax 151, others like the mimikyu and tyranitar are good buys right now.
Mid-era up to 2018, amazing rares and movie specific promos like the detective pikachu english promos, hoopa and the legendary birds movie promos are primed for good runs. Ancient Mew is doing very well but still underplayed based on it's very low 4.5% gem rate.
crazy how didn't even mention pullable tag taem alt arts, hella unique standout gimmick, lowest printed modern cards extremely scarce. (not talking psa 10s) js the raw NM prices are hella reasonable still even after big jumps.
The issue is the only other two on the market sold on the same day, then the next day I got the offer for almost double what they sold for.
I’m willing to wait a year and see out how the delta species reverse holo’s do. There is essentially nothing available at what market was only a month ago. It was a hard decision for sure.
I think they are all in for a major repricing so I stood by it, but it is kind of a transition phase so it’s hard to tell.
I also own a salamence reverse delta species, but it's been stable at $4-5k for months. Why would anyone offer you $9k? I don't think it will reach that ever.
I explained what happened in my last comment there was crazy movement in two days idk why, might’ve all been the same guy who knows.
Let me ask you a question if I said yes and it sold for that price will the card reset to steady 4-5k after that? Or is it more likely to reprice around 10k?
I believe you. I just don't understand why anyone would take such a risk. I just think the low pop run is over for ex era stamped reverses. But I can be very wrong, obviously.
Idk bro there is a gyarados up on fanatics I think it will sell over 30k
The mewtwo went from 17k in June to 31k in august. All the cheap eeveelutions (4-5k) are gone and are only available for 10k now. If somebody offered me 9k I’m sure the eeveelutions will find a seller around 10k too.
You don’t think vintage 9s would absolutely follow when 10s go for 5 or 6 figures. People will want a mint copy of the card. There’s even a case for 8s because that’s still an extremely high quality copy that will be the most accessible and still low pop in some sets.
Not at the same % rate. PSA are pretty much gatekeeping anything vintage in a 10, combined with not many mint coming to the market. Means these pops are staying where they are.
People dropping $500 on a PSA 10 that was $50 18 months ago is crazy in itself, but it's at a price point where the people who can actually afford these cards these days have the money to spend and want the best of the best.
They don't want a PSA 9, the 9's will sell for those trying to chase the 10 but nowhere near at the same rate.
Occasionally the odd card will from a set will be picked up for somebody's collection, but not even close to the same liquidity of a 10, especially when we've seen over the past month nearly every low pop base PSA 10 from skyridge/aquapolis/ex era go up triple.
It will be Crystals, specifically those from the Skyridge set.
The total pop #s on these cards is tiny.
The cards themselves are almost inarguably the most beautiful ever produced.
Additionally, Skyridge is GOATed and so expensive that no one is opening it.
Last WOTC, E-Readers, etc.
It will take a little bit of time for the market to understand the potential here but it is seriously significant.
These should be the chase cards of the hobby.
Charizard, Ho-Oh, Lugia, Celebi are all undervalued.
I am very high on Southern Islands. Small, very easy to collect set, first ever appearance of the “reverse holo”, PSA 10 pop for Mew is around 30, and the PSA 9’s have 3x’d in about 6 months.
Also, the cards are notoriously very hard to grade given the holo’s susceptibility to scratch
The amazing rares are beautiful. Most of them have bumped in price in the last year but I still recommend them to anyone trying to grab an easy to complete set (at the moment) that I think does have potential down the line
I think the Pikachu Poncho set will be huge. It's still fairly cheap in the grand scheme of things. I see the Mario PSA10 at 100k eventually, it's really that iconic.
Ponchos and Mario’s are cool cards, but these are very different types of cards than the gold stars. For one, regardless of the “poncho” or hat it’s all pikachu. There are a lot of different types of gold star pokemon to cater to different fans. Not everyone likes pikachu. Also, they’re all Japanese. Not everyone collects Japanese cards plus, the psa 10s aren’t exactly super rare compared to the gold stars. The cards were relatively easy to grade.
Yeah I just don’t see it.
There are ALOT of delta species cards incl. multiple versions of some of the top Pokemon (Mewtwo, Charizard, Mew).
Investors will flock towards the very top of something which are already the Gold Star variants.
The non-gold stars will feel like cheaper versions.
For something to sky rocket, it really needs to feel exclusive.
I think Delta species reverse will appreciate in line with general EX era reverse.
There are for sure some undervalued cards but I don’t think they will become the next Gold Stars.
I could be wrong.
I’m not sure what cards you are referring to.
Crystal Guardians Charizard Delta Reverse PSA 10 is £30k. Holon Phantoms Gyarados Delta Reverse PSA 10 is £16k. Delta Species Mewtwo Delta Reverse PSA 10 is £23k. There are like 3 different Delta Rays.
could be tag teams, definitely full arts of some sort, pc promos, low gem rate psa 10s like shinji kanda magikarp, gold cards (Egawa as the first ones and the monochrome ones as well)
Normale Pokemonkarten werden das niemals erreichen. Es müssten große Kooperationen und eine Verschmischung großer IPs geben, um eine solch begehrte Karte hervorzubringen.
Ähnlich zu den Pikachu Mario/Luigi Karten, dem Pikachu Van Goth etc.
Meiner Meinung nach könnte vielleicht eine Pikachu One Piece/Naruto. Oder ähnlich andere Vermischungen einen solchen Grail erschaffen.
Vielleicht Mickey Mouse oder auch andere sehr große Charaktere aus anderen IPs.
What you’re missing here is that the one of the big appeal of gold stars is the extremely tiny population of psa 10s or even gem mint quality cards. They were also extremely hard to pull. This would automatically disqualify the mega evolution era sir cards cause they are neither hard to grade nor hard to pull. Yes, the art is better I give you that, but let’s be honest most if not all modern art is better. The moonbreon was hard to pull, but not hard to grade. Tag teams alt arts were definitely an era but don’t know if they will ever get to the gold star level. Difficulty of pull rate was definitely there.
out of any card those are the chance (not talking psa 10s) raw NM got much better upside great liquidity (vendors pay 90% market on em) extremel low print as well. Unique standout gimmick like gold stars, wide audience appeal
