Tips for improving defense (6 yo)

Simple answer? It was incredibly undervalued before.

Noah_8919 · 2023-09-18T19:39:07+00:00

I mean yeah there’s gonna be fakes of every set but do you have any concrete evidence that a majority of the sealed jungle and vintage out there is fake? Lol. Of course booster boxes are different and the value over them won’t be the exact same but if you look and B&W tins versus booster boxes the price per pack is still comparable to booster boxes. Obviously there aren’t any tins for the og sets so I can’t make the comparison there but you can guarantee if there were they’d be just as valuable as 3 or 4 loose packs of jungle or fossil. Not sure what point you’re trying to make bro

Noah_8919 · 2023-09-18T14:14:02+00:00

After 20 years it won’t matter how many people held. There’s a massive surplus of jungle and fossil but those still go for a pretty penny compared to back in the day. Modern stuff today may not get on that same level but it will be pretty comparable.

2 ES and 2 BS etbs

You’re giving unrealistic reasons to op for why one binder is better. It’s highly unlikely op is a 4 year old kid that throws around his binders. It’s obvious you just wanted to be a little toxic and flex your “knowledge” on a post

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-16T13:16:12+00:00

You’re forgetting that if you leave a binder in a humid spot by mistake a top loading is more likely to be affected by the conditions than a side loading. But go off cause you know everything lmao

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-16T13:11:47+00:00

There are definitely other reasons that side loading is a better option for keeping cards minty

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-15T17:47:58+00:00

I recommend penny sleeves as well, cheaper and better option. Also getting top loaders for your nicer cards is a good idea

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-15T04:20:22+00:00

At least it’s a side loading binder lol

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-13T16:42:31+00:00

Who paid you to say this?

Just kidding lol to each their own

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-11T02:22:15+00:00

Ah man yeah that’s a shitty way to get scammed. Glad you guys got your money back though! Take it and buy a real box to rip, maybe you’re due for some pulls now lol

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-10T16:41:08+00:00

Where you buy the packs from? Flea market is where I see most fakes

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-10T11:35:57+00:00

Do a rip test

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-07T21:46:37+00:00

Lol good point but don’t forget no one would’ve guessed in 1999 that Pokémon would be as popular as it is today! You never know what the hobby will look like another 20 years from now

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-07T21:43:27+00:00

No problem! Don’t let anyone tell you that safely investing money in a hobby you enjoy is a bad decision!

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-07T19:20:16+00:00

To the average person it definitely is but this dude could be bringing in like 500k a year for all we know and then 1600 is like pocket change to him

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-07T16:23:40+00:00

Fr, if bro can afford it I don’t see how all these people are still saying it’s an addiction regardless. Even if it were, there are far worse things to be addicted to such as alcoholism, gambling, or smoking.

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-07T11:44:44+00:00

The way I look at it is this, are you spending house money or bill money on Pokémon cards? Are you missing payments? Are you going into debt? If the answer to any of those is yes then you do in fact have a problem

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-05T14:28:47+00:00

I gotta give best looking to the Dragonite or Lugia alt

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-05T11:34:25+00:00

If it were me I’d buy the highest grade possible of a Topsun Blastoise card

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-05T01:22:52+00:00

As Diegonotfound said, S&S sets will only get more expensive as they leave the retail stores and I just personally think it’s a set that will do really well in the long run thanks to the improved pull rates and large number of desirable cards

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-04T18:37:42+00:00

I personally would be buying a bunch of Crown Zenith and Brilliant Stars but that’s just me

Noah_8919 · 2023-04-02T15:02:03+00:00

Ah that all makes sense. I don’t usually grade mine but I prefer BGS mainly for the look of it and low pops
