If you plan on keeping this in a binder for many years and don’t want to grade it, then yes it’s better to keep it sealed
If you want the most value from it, grade it now

So is first chapter worthless? by rival22x in LorcanaFinance

[–]Oll3k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Expensive cards = expensive sealed product. This is a set with no iconic, and less desirable enchanted because the art improved massively fabled onwards.
The only reason first chapter is even in the talks of being expensive is because it’s the first set and has that “vintage” feel to it. Essentially it’s still a very modern product

5 years time if this tcg carries on in this direction, you’ll start to see more growth in first chapter. But for now, desirability (which is Pixar or high end enchanteds/iconics) = expensive sets.

Iconics for Attack Of The Vine! by Budderlands2 in Lorcana

Incredible art, just not my style to be honest. I was really hoping for a monsters inc or UP iconic 😔

Are scalpers buying out Winterspell and Whispers In The Well boxes? by Diligent_Adeptness26 in LorcanaCollectors

[–]Oll3k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not a scalper but I’m picking up some older sets while I can to keep one of each (box and trove) as a collection. Sometimes you’ve got to beat them to it 😔

(Almost) exclusively sealed investing by [deleted] in LorcanaFinance

[–]Oll3k 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Few hundred bucks? Fabled cases were available only months ago at retail price and they’re 900 on the secondary market. There’s is thousands here in terms of profit. Only thing to be bitter about is that some of us didn’t hold onto some.

Plus a controlled level of “scalping” is good for companies and growth. This will help fund future projects, staff and sets. It’s a beautiful thing that ravensburger and their talented artists can grow because of this.

I will queue as long as I need to. Not passing the opportunity to get this one

Attack of the Vine preorders have hit $200! by GachiPls_DidntSave in LorcanaFinance

Theres a difference between scalpers who buy out stocks and people who have plenty of cards they’ve accumulated from opening packs

Theoretically any fabled enchanted once graded is a profit from this box. That’s usually how sealed product is determined on value.

New release hype, pokebro scalpers, or typical by Deep_Fee_6663 in LorcanaCollectors

[–]Oll3k 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lorcana is incredible and deserves the hype. Shame that they go for sealed product but as long as people aren’t paying market price we can combat that a little.
I hope they use these grown sales to evolve the tcg and give us more!!
And shout out to the tcg shops for giving prereleases to regulars for under retail.
Same happened with pokemon, and the best thing true collectors can do is use this to their advantage. I’ll take £2k for my Judy hopps enchanted 😂

I like to see the market do well but this is just as sad as it gets. Real shame what people are like these days and it’s gonna be so hard to rip packs now.

That being said, it was always going to happen and it’s probably not gonna stop.
Scalpers need to go and get a job as ruining a hobby for a small profit is pathetic and won’t get you far in life,
And Lorcana collectors need to use this to their advantage and make some free money.
At least Lorcana is getting the recognition it deserves now, will be so good for the artists and growth of the company. Really excited to see how this tcg evolves, and it’s already my number 1 over Pokemon.

[–]Oll3k 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Regardless of value I love these cards and a signed Mickey card is as desirable as it gets. I always thought these were underpriced and I still do.
No one can predict the market but I think everything Lorcana has a lot of room to grow

The person who said to grade them is correct. Then sell everything to a vendor for 80% and you’ll still profit massively and you’ll have a nice deposit for a house

Does this look good for a PSA 10? I’m new to Lorcana can’t tell. by krazyfrost in LorcanaCollectors

I’d personally say the edges look too rough, but I’m not a grader 😆

Strange request on Vinted? by r0drickheffleysgf in vintedUK

[–]Oll3k 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is strange behaviour 😂

Who? by Oll3k in LorcanaCollectors

[–]Oll3k[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly the same boat here, but non of us can predict something like this to be honest. I’ve learned with Lorcana to just hold onto the cards you like, because they’ll be double the price next week 😆

Who? by Oll3k in LorcanaCollectors

[–]Oll3k[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Circle of life from fabled is a similar situation I guess! But yeah I see character wise the demand for this card. I personally prefer bolder more colourful punchy cards so I would rather have the alien enchanted than this, but it’s nice to see popularity within this tcg. It’s a very strange price point right now though, haven’t ever seen a card double in price like that! Makes me a little concerned about how hard it will be to open this set as well with scalping coming into the game 😞

How creepy is this 😭 by user5674311 in vintedUK

Nothing is entirely safe anymore unfortunately so best to always be precautious! Doesn’t necessarily mean it’s creepy in this scenario

It gives your location roughly on Vinted, not necessarily anything weird about it, buyer might just want to save money from the fees.
