TikTok has revolutionised my sealed collecting in the UK. I've not paid over £90 for any S&V BB, around £30 for most ETB's (excluding 151), and JPN BB's all for around £30-£35 (again excluding 151). It's been expensive overall but can't turn down those prices as can't see them ever being cheaper.

Hello mate, I’m also based in UK and started collecting/investing. I’ve also just recently discovered TikTok shop as a great place for good deals, I’m still a bit sceptical though… do you have any specific sellers on TikTok shop that you’ve bought from that you would recommend? Thanks in advance

@steamboy9538

Yeah a lot of ppl are skeptical since tiktok is known to be kinda shady, but you can’t get products cheaper anywhere unless you buy stolen goods off marketplace

Excellent points mate! …I try and aim for around 5%, sometimes I might exceed my limit if there’s a bargain to be had. I have other investments like precious metals and property, but none come close to the fun & enjoyment I get with pokemon. Top video Michael👍

I think 5% is just too low for most people, sure if you have 500.000 that is 25k which is a lot. But If you only have 10k, you gotta work with 15-25%. At least if you want to make some serious gains. The higher the risk, the bigger the reward.

It's just what I go with, 5% of net worth. However, if you're younger or just getting started, allocating more than 5% could be needed!

Absolutely, you've got to scour over all the websites and platforms and ultimately you will start saving £1, £2, £5, £10, £20 etc here and there and it all adds up! Also - ripping packs doesn't pay 😅 if the goal is to have sealed collection, don't overspend on ripping endless packs. You can't have both! (Unless you're rich 😂)

@pokeoz91

Ripping packs is fun, or disappointing haha but it's not good for investment. Definitely keep them sealed 😎

I remember that video with the crown zenith boxes there was a similar offer in the Uk for £40 a box I have a case and 2 cases of etbs that was a great play on your part £3 a pack is a no brainer honestly People want everything for nothing and if you wait and look the deals do come up like!

what’s your thoughts on buying a silver tempest booster box, it’s the last SWSH booster box available in Canada and i have been super tempted to purchase!

@andyfernandez3288

Ай бұрын

I've noticed Silver Tempest is really inexpensive and very available everywhere. If you want Sword and Shield era set, Crown Zenith is becoming a little more scarce. I picked up some ETB's at GameStop the other day for $63 Canadian. After tax it was like $71 and change. Not a bad price seeing how I see them selling at other places for $80 plus tax

Im "new" in that im coming back to Pokemon again after being completely obsessed as a kid when it launched in the US then falling out as a teenager lol. So im playing a huge catch up and really wish i had gotten back into it during Sun and Moon since every set since has been a banger and seen huge gaines. Im ballin on a budget and really trying to diversify but some sets seem obvious to invest in. Your knowledge and content is invaluable. Its such a unique hobby/investment niche im REALLY enjoying it again!
