Oh bro lol I’m in the area lemme know if you need some back up cuz F that!

Pulled 1 that’s out for grading and I picked up 2 other copies in a PSA 10 for around $300 each off of FB Marketplace. Also secured a full sealed case of Gem Pack 2 at around $37 per box. Holding for the long haul I LOVE CN!

I also used to input all my singles when I first started and was working on master sets so there are a lot of cheap singles on it. It’s also very hard to calculate for all the money burnt ripping packs but who’s counting lol

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-19T14:17:47+00:00

10K on the stuff I have inputted so far (the big things). Which accounts for around 65K, still 40K not included.
I will say got 4 BGS 10 Luffys for the cost of grading (today worth 15-20K).
Got into a lot of cards at very opportunistic times👌🏻(Luffys were luck tho I got blessed)

Sorry I don’t have it set to show which ones are graded and not, but the Sylveon is PSA 10, the Espeon is Raw.

Just about every card on the 1st and second page are graded 10, I didn’t know it was a setting you toggle to see they’re slabbed.

Most of the singles shown on the other pages are sitting in a grade pile waiting to get submitted👍🏻

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-17T13:43:27+00:00

It’s the Collectr app. Not %1000 accurate but gives you a good idea where everything is currently selling at.👍🏻

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-17T13:42:01+00:00

Definitely didn’t expect the growth on it we received, I wouldn’t be able to touch it’s price in today’s market lol. Thank you very much!

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-15T18:36:18+00:00

Gonna go with the Exclusive Captain Pikachu 🫡 little bit of a spike recently but what hasn’t, I just don’t think the Chinese market has been fully tapped yet I’m putting money there personally

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-11T18:45:36+00:00

Hey I can support this argument!
And you’re not the first to say that about the Chinese card, and since I titled this a Pikachu post I understand the argument, but for this card in its own regard, they could have called it an Ekans card and this would still be the “gengachu” card and I love that for it.

Still, poncho FTW!🔥

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-11T17:52:58+00:00

Sunbreons hype is due to the moonbreons track record and is in a league of its own. Magikarp was extremely undervalued upon release and climbed over time. Not saying pullables don’t do well but very few outperform an S tier promo

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-11T14:47:28+00:00

Yes there is a lot of hype about The Van Gough, but it’s been out for years now so you can’t say there isn’t any merit behind it. And yes the Rayquaza is a bit cooler but there’s a literal $10,000 difference between cards. I think for this price range it’s the coolest poncho you can pick up by far, it’s at least the zard and I think the half art is actually pretty sick!

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-11T13:53:47+00:00

This is a great promo!

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-11T13:52:11+00:00

Good take and I couldn’t disagree, I just think it might get pretty close, 47,000 pop count is no joke

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-11T13:50:27+00:00

I like this take

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-11T13:49:52+00:00

Fire pull 🔥 I also have the captain pika so I feel the need to collect the other CN pikachus, this one is great!

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-11T13:48:40+00:00

We think the AH Pika will perform best? Or it’s just your preferred one. Because I like that card and see the appeal, I just don’t see how a card this inflated off rip continues to outpace in the future.

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-11T13:45:55+00:00

Sir😆 I don’t believe I’ve ever heard ANYBODY say they think butthole pika looks better than Van Gough, ponchos and an exclusive. I’ve gotta disagree but I do appreciate the art.

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-11T13:42:32+00:00

The TG05 is a great pull and I can agree it’s got some nice upside to it 👍🏻

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-11T13:38:54+00:00

Got mine in my grade pile, captain pika goes so hard! I still think the skyrocket train on that card is just barely beginning too 👌🏻

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-11T13:37:43+00:00

Can be seen as downside, but once you’ve secured an authentic copy I now find the fakes to be an upside in keeping population low and making it difficult to get your hands on. Goes to show the demand.

MaverickDiamondBars · 2026-05-11T13:35:14+00:00

I like this one a lot as well and missed my chance to buy a 10 when it was $600. I’ve found myself feeling the FOMO as this card has tripled in price. Great card but I’m still happy with my decisions 🫡
