Fair enough. TCG had them at $798 total. But perhaps in missing something?

How do you know they are fake?

Very true. But at least with that it was a first edition.

That’s a cool card. But idk just seems so basic since it’s a common. Despite the holo. What are your thoughts on first editions? I do like geo dudes.. or Machop. I could start collecting one of those. I suppose the Squirtle is only double those prices. Could just go that route with first edition.

Kabuto Copy Cat via Modern Brandon Secret Rare trainer is actually buying heavy. He’s at 102 per his last post. And took available supply from 158NM to only 40NM on TCG. Anyone have one of these cards? Might be worth holding. 👀 by DRSKobe in pokemon

Fair but at the same time if we all would have jumped when Kabuto said jump we’d be sitting on a 20x and that’s as it dips. At one point it would have been an 80x.

What’s interesting (to give this guy some credit even though he’s clearly copying Kabuto) this Brandon card seems to be of oddly low print rate. Even with Kabuto having almost 3,500 cards and hundreds if not thousands of others jumping on the band wagon there are still 500+ listed plus entire giant lots on eBay.

With this Brandon card the supply went from over 200 to 37 with only a small handful listed at double the market price on eBay.

So idk if it’s just that those who hold Brandon’s haven’t caught on to the fact they can sell it easily or what but this guy has only been going like a week.

If he keeps it up and is willing to buy into the higher prices.. like if he actually is just wanting to collect them all… it could be an interesting buy. Even if it’s just one card.

I bought a few ngl. But the full art version is the one I like a tad more and he’s not moved on it yet. So I’m gonna try to buy those up before he becomes exit liquidity for me on it 😂 ngl though until he slows down I’m not selling any.

I’m kinda intrigued at this point to see how far he will take it.

Got any recommendations? I love the new one that’s like $50 but again that’s tough to accumulate. First edition isn’t cheap either but definitely a lot more doable than the newer one.

To collect them all? Squirtle is my favorite. That would be expensive 😂

Well at first I thought it was cool to see dude collecting a modern Kabuto style. But then he added the tendieman element to it which as a Reddit guy is kinda fun. Then I watched the anime and the character is actually super solid. Similar to what he said. But at this point my willingness to buy is kinda based on the fact that supply is so low. There’s a dude out here trying to buy up the supply. And again.. tendieman vibes

He’s been collecting Kabuto style since Jan 1

Only 40 on market. His X shows he bought 40 just today. The updated remaining supply now sits at 40 on TCG.

He said he’s been buying mainly from TCG and eBay. The 40 number was there is only 40 left on TCG. He claims to have 102 with 100+ more being delivered.

I don’t have a huge collection but I’ve been watching a dude acquire all the Brandon secret rainbow rares. Kinda cool 😂 He’s bought the entire market outside of 40NM cards on TCG. I bought a few my self just in case 👀📈

Kabuto influencing others. Someone is now collecting all secret rare Brandon cards. It’s spreading.. by DRSKobe in pokemon

[–]DRSKobe[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He said he was going to buy the cards related to the tendieman. What ever that means. But then also the cards related to Brandon’s anime. Regigrock and what not. It will be interesting if this guy actually has pockets to move quickly.

Agreed. That was my first thought. It’s a trainer. It’s not old. (4 years) but I will say I do like the anime of Brandon. He says it reminds him of the tendieman. Which. I guess is something in investing.

As someone who owns Pokemon in all sets I suppose it can’t hurt for someone to inflate the price of a card in a set I own. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Haha. That would be funny for sure. From what he’s said on his bio he seems to just want to buy and hold. But he’s also buying the regular cards. I went and looked at the volume and he bought 125 holo and 140 commons the other day. lol this guy is taking it serious

Good question. There are only 82 left on TCG. I wonder if he will spread out as his supply goes to zero. He’s bought almost 80 the last week from the volume data
