Yeah, I've noticed prices dropping a good little bit recently on my collection.

That was interesting. I forgot all about that Jirachi. I collected all different versions.

I wanted to get a card signed by you at card party I seen you in the main lobby at the end of the first night n as I was walking up I seen your kids run up to you really excited and wanting hugs.. lol I just kept it pushing I didn’t wanna interrupt that moment for you

Danny is goated!

Buy low sell high, this is completely normal and healthy movement in the market. It’ll happen again time after time evern these cards will go back up then drop a little. Rinse and repeat

Saw this coming from a mile away. Hope that not that many people wasted their money..

KEEP DROPPING GIRATINA AND DON'T STOP!!!!!!!

The exact same thing happened with Lorcana right before Sword & shield alts. I tried to warn my friends that it was just some sketchy TCG buyouts that caused this, same as with Lorcana. Though the sword & shield alts probably won’t all settle back down now that the booster boxes for these sets are out of stock on Pokemon center.

@@nicksaylor3288 absolutely agree that they don’t compare on a tcg level, but it’s foolish to think that the strange buyouts on tcg in the last 6 months aren’t being done by the same groups. Suspiciously, Lorcana experienced buyouts which caused $300 to become $800 cards, and on a similar timeframe dropped close or to the initial value. The sword & shield alts from Pokémon up to this point have shown the exact same trend as far as their rise and drop in values after buyouts and in the same timeframe. The only difference lately is that Pokemon booster boxes have sold out on Pokemon center, so the prices likely won’t drop to initial values

I need to focus on my collection for what i like, not for value, not to be cool and the most important not perfect collections with all just the reverse of pokemon i like.

2 data points for anyone who jumped in more recently: 1. Machamp alt was $60 on release but was bought out within 2 days and relisted at $80-90 and never came back. 2. Aerodactyl v was $80 on release but when Rev did his opening to complete the set, he couldn’t find that one card forever and the price jumped that night to $120.

Loved the content as always. Even with the price hikes, I still like seeing the cards have not lost all the value they have gained. That shows the health of the hobby I feel.

If you see this, please send positive vibes my way. I’ve been struggling with health issues for years and could use your prayers.

solid info. thank you for sharing

Swsh alt art looks like it dropped a little but imo it will not drop back to when it was in march-april. Was gonna pick up leafeon and glaceon vmax alt art around $150-170 but decided not to, then it crept up and then shot right up to $300+ atm lol.

glad to know that market evens out

Danny, you are absolutely awesome! My son kept trying to add you as a friend on Pokemon go at Card Party 2, and he noticed yesterday that you sent him and my daughter friend requests. I just want to say thank you for doing that. The fact that you didn't forget about them or blow it off really speaks volumes about your character and how much you really care about your fans.

dang, wish I had of unloaded a few of my doubles like the garchomp while they were high!

Props to have the persistence to open shop and start a channel after selling your collections twice! 💪🏼

Great if prices drop

Just bought the Mew V for 15€ today 😊

So buy singles when the market isn’t being bought out by GameStop

Greninja retrace will leave many happy and many sad

Everyone could see this from a mile away

While they probably won't fall back to original prices I knew this would happen. You get a few buyouts to manipulate the market to get a all time high then the actual collectors or lovers of the tcg buy lower and see a fall. Look while I appreciate a chase if you're a collector just collect what you love. if you love alts then collect alts. BUT don't expect not to break your wallet especially if you're just jumping on the bandwagon.

I sold that Umbreon V for 30 dollar before the spike to 49 dollar. Still a decent sell (twice the lowest price) And I agree most of the trainer gallery cards spiked just because the real alt arts got beyond reach of most people. Since you can easily find SWSH boosters nowadays these inflated prices are indeed not sustainable.

The retrace!!! Oh no

Danny: hoping you can weigh in on this. We’re seeing these booms all while SwSh is still readily available. We’re seeing ES at around $12 a pack while we’re snatching up Empoleon/Tyranitar tins, and Silver Tempest Alts aren’t going for $5/ea on account of the cracked pack controversy. I feel like when we compare SwSh to the SM era, we still have 3-6-12 months to go until we see the real/organic boom. No one I know who collects seems have a sense of dread that SwSh is finally disappearing. It still feels very available. Question is: aren’t these premature spikes a GOOD thing? To me, it seems to be a good thing. If cards were tanking like this when SwSh is nowhere to be found, I’d be more concerned. As an aside, short of 151 I don’t see SV as being as interesting a cutover as we had between SM > SwSh (less the tag teams which were awesome). In hindsight, I think many will pine over one the best art eras which was SwSh, and that has yet to be reflected. So, again, aren’t we still many months out from the real boom like we saw with Tag Teams last year?

@sadaristotle7380

@@nateloudenbach8040 perhaps to an extent, but I could go on all day referencing local flea markets, FB groups, card stores, etc. I’m a collector and I paid the asking rate for certain Tag Teams during the boom when SM had disappeared from shelves. I don’t see many investor bros at the LCS and flea markets, personally. The logic is something like this (Giratina V Alt for example, since it applies to me personally): “I still have a chance of pulling Giratina from LO bc I’m not done ripping the set, so I’m not going to buy the single. Oh crap…set can’t be found anymore…better buy the single.” And so the premiums get paid. While I try to avoid this, I’ve succumbed a number of times, and it also characterizes several of my other collector friends. People trying to catch the ship as it’s leaving the harbor. Lastly, this is basically how it trended with previous generations. People seem to dismiss sets when they’re here and then suddenly appreciate it more when it’s gone.

Those empoleon tins can also have 5 packs of brilliant stars. I've bought them from the same place and got the brilliant stars one as well as the ones with a couple packs if evolving skies. Lots of tins, including the 2 pack tins, get repacked over the years and you can't be sure sometimes what is in them.

That blaziken already isn’t worth shit so sad if it dropped even more.

Hate to say it but we're in a massive bubble still. Pokemon, as much as I love it will definitely go into another hibernation era like 2002-2015 again. I think that's starting now as people don't have any extra money to spend and we're on the brink of recession and housing bubble popping as well. Truly believe most of these cards will be worth 90-95% under today's value here before long, within a year or so.
