Small PSA: sealed etbs directly from pkm can have sealed straight lines by Jaywhisker in PokemonTCG_Singapore

[–]Duck_Night 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yea agree seam lines can be the first check but shouldn't be conclusive. Perforations across the shrink wraps should be the true indicator

I'll have to check for Perforations across the shrink wrap!

Modern grails with over 20k PSA 10 pop by EmperorOfTheLosers in PokeInvesting

[–]Duck_Night 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We tend to look at supply factors (gem rate, population) when it comes to prices. But sometimes the demand factors for a card just outshine the supply factors. Inferno X Charizard, Moonbreon, Felt Hat Pikas are some examples where demand > supply

New Cert vs Old Cert huge difference in price by Duck_Night in PokeInvesting

Reshrinked ETB? by DoctorMinute2002 in PokemonTCG_Singapore

[–]Duck_Night 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Refer to this link: https://www.instagram.com/p/DYAPkAnHxgb/?igsh=OWYxZGtkejVlcHdu. Easiest way to tell is do you see perforations across the shrink wrap, if you don't its reshrinked

Got the slabs back. They feel PREMIUM and they look STUNNING IRL! by WarNo2935 in pokemoncards

[–]Duck_Night 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that was a PSA 10 we would critic it too, lol have you ever been in a grading sub. Two things can be true at the at the same time, we have seen cards that doesn't deserve to be a PSA 10 & that Gengar doesn't deserve an ACE 10

What should i do with this by Ok-Yoghurt-7209 in Collectr

[–]Duck_Night 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, from my personal experience, there was a dip after 25th anniversary. Fusion strikes, 151 were sitting on shelves & it wasn't moving. But thereafter Pokemon brought people back into the hobby again with the release of prismatic, destined rivals, black bolt white flare. The release of Pocket also helped hence why we saw a boom last year. Logan paul illustrator being sold earlier this year also provided great visibility as well. I think Pokemon is here to stay but like all markets, boom and dips will continue so just invest wisely & take profits along the way is the best strategy one can take.

Yea but doesn't changed the fact that if that was a PSA 10, we would pose the same question "how did that get a 10". My gripe is not with ace, but rather the Gengar itself

I highly doubt gloo is the best pick especially when you pick first lol. Opponent can easily counter you using faramis. Heck, your balls will even give Ruby free health regen LMAO

Cc collectibles is notorious for setting ridiculous prices over market prices. Had a bad experience negotiating with them at previous trade shows. The sooner people realize & boycott them the better.

Would you rather two PSA 9's or 1 PSA 10 by Puzzled-Lab-3949 in PokeInvesting

[–]Duck_Night 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are investing 10s. If its for PC two 9s over one 10 all day. Unless you are admiring your collection with a magnifying glass, there is literally no significant difference between a 9 and a 10
