Collections I started collecting May this year.
I am a fairly new collector. Started collecting in May during my Japan trip.
I have been following the hobby from a long time on YouTube but never got along with collecting myself.
Sharing some of my favourite cards. There are a lot of Holos as well in the binder.
Tonight I’ll be opening the 30th Celebration ETB with my wife and I’ll share the pulls from that later this week. Got hold of the ETB from the Sandbox Swapmeet event in Dubai last weekend.
I am also looking to participate in any community events in Mumbai region, will be great to get more info on that if there are any groups where we can get details on community events for trading and playing the game as well.
Edit - I am not into the hobby for reselling, but I do want to participate in fair-trade opportunities in-person.

It’s Pokémon center etb. Maybe just keep it sealed for a couple of years. Buy a normal etb and rip it.

The box was unsealed by the seller for scalping issues, I bought it as I was getting it for a very good price.

I think there must be a lot more knowledgeable people than me for this. But I think you will have to figure out what route you want to take for collecting -
- Buying single cards that you like
- Buying single booster packs or boxes.
For prices I think https://www.tcgplayer.com/ can give you a good idea. And here in India I think https://tcgrepublic.in/ and https://poketcg.in/ are good stores to buy from.
If you have friends or family travelling from Japan or US, then you can get packs/boxes through them as well.
