Ultimately if people are not buying stock and therefore no one is ordering it from the manufactures that is going to cause less of it to be made, it doesn't mean we're going to go back to the madness of covid where new sets were immediately being sold out and jacked up 200% by scalpers.

Exactly, this will happen which will result in lower printruns and hopefully higher print quality. Only thing that is scary about this is tha the whole covid era could become the most hated period in the long therm collectors community. Cause if you compare it to let's say Ex Series and Goldstar era, the thing that makes those sets very rare, desireable and expensive is that during that era pokemon lost their popularity alot, resulting in low printruns and focus on bringing something interesting to the players/collectors - different holo patterns in each single set, good QC etc. The Swsh era is quite the opposite. If you check the PSA10 pop of moonbreon or shining fates zard, those numbers are totally stupid :D and if pokemon looses its popularity a bit in next five to 10 years. Drops of these cards could be massive as well as products (which everybody keeps sealed a ton of in their wardrobes)

@@shardcards6474 it had been consistently losing popularity, aaaand not every single person who was buying product was sitting on it to invest in. A very small minority was keeping sealed product. It wasn't the norm up until just recently - which gave sets actual scarcity and reason to increase in price when people started to buy because the supply was much lower than the demand. With anything basically after XY era, the new norm is to buy product, not open it, get graded slabs, and keep cards untouched, so there will almost always be a higher supply than demand. Even when modern becomes vintage, there will be people with pallets on pallets of this stuff just ready to flood the market and price gouge each other, and the average person is going to find it very very difficult to capitalize on their investments. For what could be decades long plays, the ROI on what people are investing in now is going to be questionable. It is a much risker game than people realize when it comes to investing in this stuff now.

Wise words. Lessons I'm sure the majority of us wish we would have known when we started. I bought everything when I first started and slowly figured out that booster boxes, certain exclusive products, and products with unique promos are the way to go.

I totally feel like you took some inspiration in my comment about investing to modern in your previous vid :) awesome! Btw tip about not buying singles at launch is nobrainer. At least i thought that every serious collector has this as an absolute must. But still it doesn't anyhow mean to make profit, i bought multiple cards like Shining Fates Vmax Zard and Champions path V Zard at a price which felt like equilibrium and still lost about 30-40% on both of those. So not buying after launch doesn't always mean making profit, but definitely always means minimizing initial losses a lot.

Love the content mate! Definitely can relate to this video. I started collecting/investing sometime last year, and I’m just starting to make this mental shift to buying better products. I bought whatever looked niche and unique thinking that they were one of a kind and will go up in price. I was wrong…now some of the questions I ask myself when buying a product is 1. Is this for my Pokémon side hustle or is it for me? 2. Is this for an investment piece, display piece, or flipping? I stopped buying collection boxes because like you said, I’m parking my money and there’s better opportunity cost elsewhere. So far my focus has been Pokémon center etbs and BBS for investments.

I actually think the PC ETBs have alot of potential even though the normal ones are mass printed. They actually have a much lower print run like if you check Pokémon Center all of them since Crown Zenith haven’t been reprinted. Like you can still find Fusion Strike and Lost Origin PC ETBs on Pokémon Center. But every single S&V set PC ETB is sold out and many like Paldea Evolved have been sold out for months. I wouldn’t be surprised if they are at least as limited as normal Sun & Moon ETBs like Lost Thunder. I think this might be because they’re harder to reprint due to the PC stamped promos requiring an entire reprint of promos to make more PC ETBs. Whereas Sw/Sh PC ETBs simply had two extra packs so were easy to reprint. Just my two cents!

Shops, however, are often cleaning B&B Stadiums for 32€ (cca 2,6€ per pack) I got a few Silver Tempest and LOR for that price, but I am curious, if it would still be more worthy to just take the price difference per pack and instead of 4 B&BS get one booster box.

Booster boxes are set hits usually garbage hits at that. Tins are mixed and best investments for hits. As a collector ( who buys product from you) I’ll stick to tins and etb’s

Thanks legend!

8:48 the included promos in SVL build & battle, and the trainer toolkits, all came universally damaged in multiple spots, on every single promo card. Forces us to resell fresh out the box cards as LP, and if we miss it, refund the buyer.

Thanks heaps!

It’s actually not a bad decision to pick up these ETB’s when you can find them on sale for $25-$30. If sitting on them for quite some time will net you a pretty decent ROI.

What's the best packs to buy if you want to start investing without taking to my risk?

Holy heck!! This video completely blew up. What have you learned about starting a YT channel? I was thinking about starting a Pokémon themed art channel but I have no clue how to get views

Ah man, that sucks!

You need to get back to the Dragonball, the art is insane, and there is big investment in the IP starting next year with a new TCG, Digital Game and new series. Have a look at the GDR, SCR, SPR cards of the new set Perfect Combination for instance.
