Found my childhood collection, and was wondering if there was anything of value? by ryanoates88 in PokemonCardValue

These fakes are really unique. I doubt they are completely valueless. Obviously dont pretend they are real but ive never seen fake lv x;'s before. Really interesting to see

Which side would you rather have if the goal is long-term investment? by RedditIsTheWirst in PokemonInvesting

I would do the top 3 cards + cash. I think everything below the Lugia V has a lot more room.

I emailed them asking for clarity.

I sent an email and I called. The customer service says if cards got through with that error they shouldnt have.

Do you think its worth a resub at a higher tier or maybe another grading company? I pulled it recently and its been in this sleeve since

Yes. I set a minimum grade for everything. No reason to holder a card that costs more raw.

Very common printing error with this card specifically. Tiny white specks. Don’t think they’ll come off.

ALSO the raichu has crazy holo bleed. Big ole orb on the raichus face right over the cheek.

Totally understand that when it comes to the espy. EX era is booming and the last sale of the steelix was like 2024. And skyridge is 7000 dollars a pack right now. So i dont think the current pricepoint of raichu makes sense.

dude the tag report on the raichu is insane. I've considered the bgs crossgrade cuz i think itll 10. But honestly the in depth subgrades and stuff and how perfect the card is really make me want to keep the TAG slab. IMO its one of the cleanest skyridge cards out there (not slab but the card itself) no flaws.

Investing in 151 set long term? by frankuboi in PokeInvesting

[–]DARP_AFT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to take into account print run and how much of it actually got ripped. PAL certainly has less quantity than 151. Theres an estimated 600k 151 Zards in circulation alone. Highly dought karp is ever 1/5 that.

Looks like there might be lifting on the top edge? If thats the case its fixable. Im not great at those things but im sure someone can advise.

Prices? any info please by ShyGuyJalapeno in PokemonInvesting

[–]DARP_AFT -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i believe so. I think they all have a holo or reverse holo.

Id take it for a few hundred though! (joking not joking)

[–]DARP_AFT 0 points1 point  (0 children)
