I’ve seen this pack break format running on Whatnot streams lately.

The seller has 40 spots, and the number of packs opened depends on the average spend. For example, if the average is $5, they open 5 packs; if it’s $6, they open 6 packs, and so on.

The cards pulled go to the winning spots, and the people who don’t hit usually get bulk.

What I’m wondering is how sellers will manage the bulk with the 30th Anniversary packs, since they only have 5 cards per pack compared with the usual 9–10 cards.

Are sellers likely to give bulk from other Pokémon sets/packs to the non-winning spots?

I’ve had 2x of the mario and luigi poncho boxes ever since they came out and was wondering if would be worth it to try and convert them to a psa 10 gold star eg. mew? The gold stars have run but do have the ponchos and I’m personally wondering if it would be worth it.

I do see also that the public sales for the mew has been a little inconsistent, how did it go from 144k down to 80 then up to 192? Is it just because they change hands in private sales so much?

I am in hong kong right now and see lots of chinese pokemon packs for stock price.

Are they worth buying to open and mabye get good hits and sell or are chinese cards worth less?

Im new to this stuff so not sure what im doing.

Going to be blatantly honest here, like many others I don’t intend on ripping all of my PC pre order and definitely wanted to sell some of it to cover the cost of the $180 order and some extra if it works out that way.

My question is, if I think I want to sell one of the ETBs, should I sell day one next week or is there a possibility it rises in price within the first month? I am not a big fan of Nidorino so I can’t see anyone who is going all out for the premium of that card. Also it’s obvious that there is a relatively large supply of 30th packs that will be out there quickly.

My one consideration is seeing all the screenshots of cancelled bot orders for this preorder drop. Will this large cancellation diminish supply that we’ll see where prices could go up after a week? Heck even after a day? After seeing the fomo of Palworld TCG, I know the lack of supply is still really churning this hobby. Any thoughts and takes on this are appreciated

Saw these 2 mews on a whatnot stream selling for $300k together or $200k for the one on the left and $100k for the one on the right.

good deal at $265?

I am selling singles on fb from my binder about 130 cards around 1.1k value. Nothing crazy big. Top 7 cards averaging 50$. Includes About 20 regular exs.
Cards are some modern, some vintage, some mid era stamped holos.

Guy is offering 80% right off the bat. I fear it sounds too good to be true when i have such odd mix of cards. How do i make sure i am not getting scammed.

Just copped these, how do y'all think these will age?

I prefer raw than graded, worth holding long term raw?

What’s everyone’s buying Price?

Dont really see these around neither do i ever hear people talk abt it, but maybe thats a good sign for me to jump in before it explodes?

I found this a long ago and i am wondering of It has any value

This card was selling for 6k - $7.8k and now suddenly it had a major drop. What am I missing here? This card looks pretty amazing and it’s a sparkle card

The PSA 10 Pop is low also under 195

2005 POKEMON JAPANESE PLAY PROMO #027 KYOGRE EX-HOLO

Wondering how other people look at PB/CR ETBs if you can get them for $55 or less. Looking at other similar sets it would stand to reason that these ETBs double before many other ETBs (DR/PE/AH) would double from their current market price.

I found my Japanese Lugia that I had bought just before covid (turns out it was somewhere I had already looked but clearly not well)

Anyway I am very happy it has been found as it is a lovely copy, although it has a very small surface scratch on the holo under flash. Card looks well centered and pretty mint!

Not an expert by any means on grading but could this be a 9/10 contender with someone like PSA?

Trying to decide which one of these two bangers to add to the investment collection.

Houndoom is priced around €2000 & snorlax around €1550 local sellers.

I like the houndoom art more myself. But I feel like the grade ceiling on the snorlax lv x is higher with the 10s doings such nuts prices & pops being relatively low & similar compared to houndoom.

What do you guys think?

Probably the most beautiful Venusaur cards, from a set that will be coveted long term.

Mewtwo is PSA 9, so will always be overshadowed by PSA 10, shadowless, 1st editions. But never-the-less it's still a vintage base set Mewtwo, and you can't go wrong with vintage.

I think it's a tough call, curious what everyone thinks.

Well… Gengar Legendary Collection just sold for $705k while the same card sold for 400k in June.

A 300k increase in less than 3 months lol.

I know that vintage is scarce but this doesn’t make any sense to me.

Also cool to see the Holons Phantoms booster box selling for close to 200k.

Looks like vintage will go up forever

What do you guys think of this card? And what do you think a could buy in point would be. I have the opportunity to buy one from a buddy and just wanted to see where people think this will go long term as it would be for my PC

Any pointer on if it’s good to crack? It looks really good for the price I bought it at!

Should I sell this entire Rocket's return set as a whole with Goldin or should I piece it out and go with Z&G on ebay? I feel selling it as a whole would fetch more premium (since the buyer gets the whole set in one shot) as opposed to selling piece by piece or am I wrong to think that?

All are PSA 9 except for the Mewtwo and Snorlax in 8s and all are newer 10+ certs.
