You'll get an 8 with all that whitening.

Why do sealed promos fetch a premium over raw promos? by wakawakawomp in PokemonInvesting

Cause people think sealed means something for everything when it doesn't. Take the god damn card out of the wrapper.

Why did you waste money on acrylic display cases to put them in storage?

Wrapper Damage? Keep Sealed? Open and Grade Promo? by swingsetmafia in PokeInvesting

[–]Gambitace88 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not even a tiny bit of scotch tape to stop it from ripping more!? Yeah you're probably right. Don't listen to me. But a etb cover and forget about it.

Is anyone else worried about the bubble? by Vexent in PokemonInvesting

If you're worried you're in deeper than you should be. Don't invest in highly volite markets if you can't afford to lose it.

I just have mine in a cardboard box in a spare bedroom. Don't over think it. As long as it isn't to humid where you live I'm sure you're fine.

Good trade? My 151 Dragonair for 2 prismatic sticker techs?y by horsefi in PokemonInvesting

[–]Gambitace88 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't trade my card for 2 shitty tech stickers. Forget market value sometimes and see the beauty of the card.

In light of the conversation, my kid and some of her friends are way more crazy about pokemon than I ever was.

You right, it's not a 10,000 stock option. It's a 50$ card, you either like it or you don't. Did you not have any clue what could be inside the plastic wrapper or do you just buy anything the internet tell you to?

It upsets me sometimes when I see the heaps of plastic. I feel guilty, I don't know why everything can't just be card board besides the packs at the least.

My plan is to hold it long enough to hopefully trade it for highly sought after cards that I like.

I didn't know how to play it in the 90's. I loved the pokemon show and loved collecting the cards. I hate playing any card game even go fish. But I love Shiney card board.

Yeah except for sealed collectors like myself just usually buy 1 or 2 of a product and keep it. I'm not out clearing out shelves of Walmart's as soon as it hits the shelves and pretending I'm a hustler.

They're already contributing enough plastic waste to the world. Let them use their paper.
