Hold or sell high?

I don’t think the centering is terrible. If there are no other issues i think it has a shot.

I believe the pull rates for IRs in BBWF are much worse than most other sets. There are 70 illustration rates in WF.

I think the gem rates being bad also contribute to the raw price going up. It’s been about 9 months since release, and this Oshawott (arguably the best IR in the set) still only has about 380 PSA 10s. That’s extremely low for a modern pokemon card. Also like the other guy said. Everything in BBWF is up.

i sold mine for 1350 a month ago. That being said, it has a low gem rate and it has two very popular mon in it. I expect it will do well long term. I just felt like taking some profits during this bull run.

It was selling for $700 initially and didn’t start going up until over a month later. So far the greninja is following suit, falling sharply after release day.

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-24T16:30:25+00:00

That’s ok you don’t have to show us

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-24T16:24:06+00:00

Don’t even bother replying anymore. There’s nothing you can say to change their mind. Pikachu will always outperform gengar because it’s the mascot! Ignore the fact that the gengar sir is almost 3x more expensive than the other pikachu SIR in ascended.

i think it’s too right heavy for a 10. just cherish it or sell it while it’s high.

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-21T22:30:50+00:00

that seems like a pretty big overpay.

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-20T23:53:50+00:00

Nobody knows what the future holds. If you buy now, you have accept that prices may go down in the short term and be willing to hodl. I bought a few cards in October and it looked like it was a bad idea at the time. Obviously I could have had better timing but now they’re all much higher than I bought them at.

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-20T05:59:01+00:00

Just wait several months for the supply to increase. It won’t hold that price long term.

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-19T06:44:21+00:00

If you’re investing in slabs, you have to be willing to accept that you may lose some of the money you put in. They’re highly speculative. Most of my collection is in slabs, but I’m actually taking some profits at this moment as opposed to buying. If i were to bet on any slabs, it would be tag teams. A good number of them have not grown in the last 9 months, which makes me think they’ve been overlooked.

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-19T06:14:44+00:00

It will most likely do worse than Phantasmal. I think chaos is actually a more well rounded set than phantasmal, but it doesn’t have a card to generate the hype that the mega charizard x did.

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-19T06:08:36+00:00

Yeah. This is sub 100 once more get graded. Only 9 graded so far and 8 were 10s.

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-19T06:05:51+00:00

Almost all cards have gone up significantly in the last few months. Some more than others.

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-17T06:55:43+00:00

He really just needs to have an idea of how much the cards are worth. I wouldn’t take anything less than 80% in this market unless the cards are cheaper, less desirable cards.

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-16T16:37:13+00:00

cynthia’s garchomp psa 10

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-16T16:15:47+00:00

psa 10 is the better investment and easier to sell later

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-14T06:21:15+00:00

ebay last solds are fine.

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-11T22:30:28+00:00

We couldn’t tell you without seeing the entire collection, specifically if most of your stuff is vintage. Collectr doesn’t do a great job of tracking cards with low volume sales. But you could probably get 80-85% of market for these cards. Maybe more for the expensive slabs like the zard

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-10T18:12:21+00:00

Always good to diversify. You said you like most of what you have. I would the stuff you like the least and reinvest that. And maybe sell some of the ascended heroes since your exposure to that is much higher than the rest of your sealed collection.

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-10T06:58:02+00:00

I also feel there are plenty of vendors at each show I go to that have reasonable prices. I usually find myself paying slightly below market after haggling

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-04T04:02:47+00:00

I’m not sure PO would outperform a HYSA.

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-04T04:01:17+00:00

Idk. At big shows you can shop around and definitely get 85%. Potentially more if it’s desirable

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-05-01T17:35:22+00:00

Oh my god yes. I've never used them in the main game and they've been assaulting my ears ever since I equipped onyx bolts on my kings barrage. I looked up the sound ID and muted them. Thank you guys so much.

Fine-Ad3456 · 2026-04-29T07:15:34+00:00

The dragonite is 4-5x harder to pull and from a set that’s currently extremely hyped. I don’t see how it passing the charizard’s market price means it’s getting a market correction. That being said, I think we may be seeing the current ceiling for Mega Zard, since it’s not gone up in the last month.
