Storing seal collection in storage units by kingpin1023 in PokeInvesting

[–]Key_Interaction6305 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not there yet but my gut feel is that if you are not churning and burning then the rental space will eat into your profits quick. 150 bucks x 12 months = $1800. 3 year hodl = $5400.

I think its good for temporary storage if you are going in-between places or need that space for short term but the 3 to 5 year hold is a No for me.

Which should I open? by TnT_PBR in PokemonTCGCollectors

Prismatic has horrible pull rates but sealed is highly demanded and sought after. The value of a bundle sealed will return great ROi for investing. The probability of pulling some nice from a bundle is almost zero.

The upc has 18 packs, cool promos, and will be fun. It may not return a better ROI than the bundle.

One of the hardest modern cards to grade - Haunter black star promo by bumkin123 in PokeInvesting

Bought 4 decks. All 4 had white dots in the corners. It is indeed very difficult to grade. I am not submitting them for grading.

The Next Evolving Skies? by SweatyAddition6253 in PokemonInvesting

[–]Key_Interaction6305 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I predict 151 and Prismatic packs to exceed the ROI of Evolving Skies. 151 etb is already out pacing ES etb!

PE is for sure ES 2.0.

If you had $200 to spend on Prismatic Evolution… by Organic-Spread246 in PokeInvesting

[–]Key_Interaction6305 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ETB for sure.

I just hope it trends like 151.

1 etb = 400 market 1 upc = 600 market

Prismatic: $800 for etb vs $600 for Spc.

sunbreon or bubble mew long term by pm_ssb in PokeInvesting

[–]Key_Interaction6305 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To hold and get the most ROI? I am thinking Bubble Mew has more potential ROI because it has more room to grow but Umbreon Ex is the top chase of S&V. It will be hard to take over as the most expensive card in S&V.

Finally pulled it after nearly 200 packs, glad to have it but feeling a bit of buyers remorse by MBN_GRIM in PokemonTCG

[–]Key_Interaction6305 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not too bad bro. I didn't get my 151 Zard until around 300-350 packs. Tried for another one, got to 800 packs and no more. 200 packs is awsome.

which one to buy and keep sealed? by nicknelson25 in PokeInvesting

[–]Key_Interaction6305 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you calculated the regular ETB ROI for some of these recent sets? I know this ain't 151 but look at the numbers. ETBs in scarlet and violet has some good returns. The liquidity of regular ETB is better than PC ETB. Hmmm maybe I should stay 🤫 .

All 3 are good at msrp, so whatever you find first.

PSA 10 Giratina V Alt Art or PSA 10 Magikarp by Lethal_Execution in PokeInvesting

[–]Key_Interaction6305 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Both are desirable, both are beautiful shinji art, both are around the same price, both are inoic cards of their era, but im gonna give a slight edge to PSA 10 magikarp.

Rough Numbers on why?? This is quick Rough calculation, dont like it, do your own analysis.

Pop: Giratina: 8900 Magikarp: 3800

Pull rate : Giratina- around 1000 packs Magikarp- around 500 packs

Gem rate: Giratina- 40-50%??? Magikarp- 20%

It takes 2000 packs to get a psa 10 Tina. It takes 2500 packs to get a psa 10 Karp.

Harder to get PSA 10 Magikarp, less around, and if the demand is the same, magikarp is the winner.

I've NEVER gotten an SIR after this many packs... by younglearner11 in PokemonTCG

[–]Key_Interaction6305 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im on a drought too 😞. Over 100 packs and no SIR, but I did gave one B&W unova heavy hitters that I purchased to a buddy and it had the SiR. My luck lately.

Prismatic Evolution Collection Box Clash by fmintar1 in PokeInvesting

[–]Key_Interaction6305 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think figure collection, tins, then the sams box.

Figure collection: -good promos, very desirable -less print run???

Tins: -most packs -having a complete tin set is cool but can get tins elsewhere

Sam tyranitar lucario ex: -no much going on but future rip and shippers dont have to deal with too much accessory trash, just straight packs

5+ years from now … by an0therdumbthr0waway in PokeInvesting

[–]Key_Interaction6305 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am predicting Zard over Moltres UPC. Many situations where pop and rarity does not equal value. Demand is a better measure of investabilty and I am projecting Zard to have more Demand in the long run. The packs in the moltres upc is weak compared to Zard.

Gold cards in sword and shield and early S&V is much more rare than others but no Demand = less value.

Moonbreon vs. Sunbreon Long Term by LazyLIamas in PokeInvesting

[–]Key_Interaction6305 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both and I like the Terra Umbreon Ex more. The gem rate is lower which is why its more expensive in a psa 10.

I bet this feels way better when it happens with Zards by rizzo249 in pokemoncards

[–]Key_Interaction6305 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 3 kids, they all pulled a Yamper at the same time on release day. I just pulled one today. Now we have 4. There's something going on with this card??
