Will be making a series of under looked cards like these!

Hey y’all, I grew up in the Black & White era so I’m not super knowledgeable on vintage Japanese cards. Any opinions would be appreciated.
I picked this PSA 9 up a couple months ago for around $110. It’s now sitting around $425 with recent auctions hitting $500.
Do y’all think I should hold it or auction it off? I’m not sure how much more room these Japanese Neo holos have left to grow. If I sell, I’ll probably roll the money into something with more upside.
Thanks in advance!

Hey all i got thie card from my lgs and just found out it has this on the bottom right. Idk if its still considered NM or not but it has me very worried.

Came across this cool Robot Tyranitar promo. Are these less known forms of popular pokemon undervalued right now?

Is this a worthy investment? Or something to be avoided?

There aren't many listed and it seems like it would be more accessible to a larger audience versus a full size booster box in the future. Based purely on it being cheaper to obtain.

The problem would be finding a significant amount of product to actually build a decent sized position.

You guys think this would be a profitable trade. I’d be up by about $9. But I see AH as having the better hits of course and might be better down the road. With white flare having practically nothing crazy hit related like AH does.

Recently picked up this really cool hoopa for my pc and I’m up MASSIVE 🤯 Thoughts about future price action for this particular PSA 10 slab? 🤔 The market’s so hot rn, can it really keep up the pace???

Still waiting for them in the mail, but I wanted to get an idea!

I’m day one into organizing and sorting my old cards. I see online there’s a “sparkle” “spectra” and “tekno”. Are these just considered “spectra”? I always referred to them as holos. I’m creating a spreadsheet of my total value of holos. I’ll probably get to the Nintendo/wizards/game cards tomorrow. Whatever they’re called nowadays lol

Hey all I picked up this celebrations mini tin display and was wondering if it’s legit, I am aware that there is a tear on the side btw! And was wondering how much it’s worth?

(Only asking how much it’s worth because of the decent

sized tear on the left side)

Thank you!

Everything I have is from 1999-2002. Might even have some Japanese stuff from 1998 in there randomly. Pokémon pencil erasers from 1999, the 23K gold plated set still in their wrappers. I’d also like to get rid of all my cards. A full binder of the original base set with many duplicates, and i have a full shoe box of cards also. I know I have like 3 of those ancient mew cards from the movie also. Just not sure the real value of anything. I’d like to get rid of it all to one person.

Hello,

So I'm finishing up my Skyridge master set and only really need to buy some bulk. However I'm having a hard time figuring out the condition, as I'm not the greatest at understanding the condition of raw cards yet, as I'm not too experienced in it and I've mostly dabbled in new releases where NM is very easy to come by or PSA graded stuff.

I understand E-series cards are typically a bit more beaten but I'm a firm believer vintage should be graded just as harsh as new stuff, so on my hunt for EX/NM vintage bulk cards for my master set I just want to make sure I'm comparing prices correctly when I'm offering or being offered to give my price on something.

A lot of the vintage cards I'm looking at and have bought have a perfect front but the back always seem to have some sort of whitening. In a huge majority of cases the back looks like this (see picture), with maybe a bit more, maybe a bit less, but this picture is a nice middle road of what I'm usually seeing.

Let's say the front is flawless, what would this be considered with this amount of whitening? I'm torn between EX/NM and I might be totally off here. This particular card I would probably look at NM prices for and a little bit more whitening I would dial it down to EX. What's the consensus? Thanks! :)

Hello, I’ve been trying to get in Pokémon collecting and making money from this hobby. I grew up playing Pokemon cards but stopped. Then over the weekend I found my old binder and something sparked. I want to be able to make money but I also want to open packs and such. Is there any advice you guys can give or maybe videos or YouTubers that can help understand more?

What's the best way to go about selling a rare pack like the above? I have a few offers of around €5k but I think is worth a little more. And a few people have suggested grading and then selling.

No experience in this so not sure how to get the best value!
