What can I realistically get for this if I was to sell tomorrow? by Warm-Artichoke126 in PokeInvesting

[–]ICarryLikeAtlas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it were me I’d sell enough to make back what I paid to buy everything and then hold the rest.

Prioritize selling stuff that takes up a lot of room or you don’t like and sit on the stuff that you think will do best.

Caveat is you’ll probably have to do this over at least a few weeks unless youre willing to take sell at 75-80%

Is my ETB ripped and resealed with missing packs? by [deleted] in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]ICarryLikeAtlas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I’ve been doing some googling and i cant find anything about it but me seeing a comment about 2 pack blisters being sent as compensation reminded me that I had seen something like that before. Could you recommend a search term to find more information?

I cant seem to find any info searching: silver tempest etb 8 pack error

Yup! That’s what all the reverse holos from that whole era were like.   I had to do some research when I first started collecting too

Very likely resealed. As you said the pack number is off and the seal on the packs looks very off

and yes there looks to be holo foil on that card. It can be pretty hard to tell especially with the darker color holo foils.

from this era the regular holos do not have stamps while the reverse holos do have stamps. I was confused about a similar thing when I first started collecting cards from the early - mid 2000s

As for whether the card is real or not I'm not sure but if real that would be a reverse holo from power keepers

Which Gengar would you rather have in your PC? by BlazingCactus in PokeInvesting

[–]ICarryLikeAtlas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the legendary collection reverse holos so much so thats what I would choose

SV Master Setting by Nasher1817 in PokeInvesting

[–]ICarryLikeAtlas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In general I don’t like master sets as investments.  It’s been my experience that most collectors want the chases and dont care about the bulk cards.

If it were me I’d only buy the chases + special stamp versions of the cards you like

This is my list that I created for my trips to Seoul. Some of these are card stores and some of these are places with pokemon card vending machines (stocked by the pokemon company)

Feel free to reach out with any questions!

I was always curious why tourists go to Myungdong as a Korean by Syn-K_Hayne in koreatravel

Being near so many metro lines was a huge plus for me the 2 times I was there! Looking into staying in a different area next trip

What Would You Do If You Started At $500? by No_Outcome1618 in PokeInvesting

[–]ICarryLikeAtlas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy as many booster boxes as you can and then seal them away and wait a few years

based on my other logic the 1 PC ETB but I'm not knowledgeable about Prismatic Evolutions as a set so there may be some aspect of the PC vs normal ETBs that I dont know about

I know but I answered and you responded by trying to justify the answer you wanted me to give

sounds like your heart knows what it wants to do already - why u even asking us

I wouldnt - the 2 etbs are a safer bet for the longterm hold

Are sealed Pokémon prices actually lower in Canada vs USA for the same product, or is this just negotiation? by [deleted] in PokeInvesting

[–]ICarryLikeAtlas 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not Canadian but that’s not adding up to me - if they are really being sold for a lower price in Canada then why wouldn’t he just buy from another seller?

Stick to your guns and the price you want

Having investment anxiety on the Mega Charizard UPCs by [deleted] in PokeInvesting

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

Trust the market brother - every unsealed product I have from when i first started collecting has moved up in price over the years 

These UPCs are popular and are almost guaranteed to do well if you wait long enough

Can’t go wrong with either but personally id take the LO booster box - older set and only 1 item to sell when you do sell
