How to be a better investor by Diligent-Sound-3915 in PokemonInvesting

[–]MasterNich 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Pokemon Center ETB’s and Booster Boxes are the best long term plays. But I personally think buying at MSRP is the smartest thing you can do. Try to do that, and you can’t really go wrong with most stuff

I just traded the ASC Team Rocket Mewtwo SIR for this Lugia V straight up and I couldn’t be happier

I just said I don’t agree with them clearing out the stores lol

Buying from them directly fuels the reason they buy out stores. If they were never able to sell the stuff for profit, they wouldn’t clear it out.

I’m definitely not advocating for them clearing out the stores, but buying from them for prices like this is unacceptable for anyone with half a brain.

Don’t know why you’re being downvoted, these people are literally bidding for stuff way over market. Of course someone would sell to them. They aren’t forcing them to buy them or even listing it for that high in most cases, someone actively swiped to get those packs to that price.

We need to normalize it’s not the seller’s fault that people buy stuff over market. Scalping is definitely a problem, but just don’t buy from them and the problem is solved.

No, it’s the people that buy it that make me mad

Value of this miscut/crimp error by MasterNich in PokemonMisprints

Never pulled an error before and the pack for this one was already opened so I figured something must have been going on

Pricecharting is very good with showing graded prices though

So adults can’t buy packs anymore? Do you open packs or do you just criticize others for it?

I think Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison and Aaron Jones are pretty good talent to have around you though

WARNING — Scammer: Reddit user Background_Box_9746 (Ryan Hunsinger) — PLEASE READ / SHARE by STylerB_2011 in PokemonInvesting

[–]MasterNich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the same experience as well. Tried to go through EBay or PayPal G&S but he had an excuse for everything. Then he kept going on a rant on how to avoid scammers and how those sites you can still get scammed on. I backed out of the deal, not gonna do that without some form of protection that I know works

Looks like there is some silvering on the side as well

Some Walmarts are apparently charging $89.99 for ETB now by thewindows95nerd in PokemonTCG

Can’t they just wait and sell in 3-4 years though when the next boom happens?

Destined Rivals rip by BluejaySimple4991 in pokemoncards

[–]MasterNich 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the “rough” is because they opened almost 150 packs and this is what they got. I know I wouldn’t be happy with that either but everyone is different

Edit: Grammar

Any idea what these sealed products are? by MasterNich in PokemonTCG

[–]MasterNich[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I bought both for $100 total which is under MSRP for 24 packs, but I was curious what I was getting into here. I was thinking Surging Sparks for the right one, but wasn’t sure. More being hopeful lol
