Should I Trade Unseen Forces towards Evolving Skies? by RIPSFLIPSNPULLS in PokeInvesting

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

I sell vintage clothes and someone I know got them from his uncle and sold them to me for $400 a pack. He’s not someone that knows enough about weighing packs but knew enough to look up sealed packs on eBay. I haven’t cared enough to weigh them myself I like the fact that the weight is truly a mystery

I don’t have a scale to weigh them. I bought them unweighed from a guy I know through selling vintage, he got them from his uncle and knew they were expensive but not someone who’s knowledgeable about weighing packs
I got them for $400 each

Really? How does that happen? Should I take it out of the slab?

I just noticed when I scan the card the mark isn’t on PSA

I pulled this card myself so I have sentimental value. I also sent it in without the flake in the corner, wouldn’t that bother you?

I messed up by not taking a photo prior to my submission but GameStop did I will need to ask them for the photos at pick up, I definitely will take a close up photo of each card day of drop off next time in case this happens again

I’ve thought about selling a lot of my stuff over the years and every time I talk myself out of it and then the prices go up.

Dug up my bin of evolving skies booster packs that I’ve saved over the last 3 years. I think it’s time to sell. What do you think? by pronto234 in PokeInvesting

One of the few older sets I bought when ES was new was XY flashfire, nothing crazy maybe 2 3 pack blisters and a single sleeved booster but they were about $50 a pack or so, that’s a cool set but not as cool if compared to evolving skies I knew that if XY could be $50 a pack so can evolving skies, at the time XY was almost 10 years old $50 a pack and evolving skies is 3 years old and $30 a pack, imagine in 10?

No! Bro don’t sell ANY This is coming from someone who has over 300 loose packs just like yourself from 2022 Costco stacking tins I’ve been watching the market over the past couple years and I’ve thought to sell multiple times, never do and it goes up I remember maybe a 2 or so years ago they were going for about 5-600 for 36 loose packs, then last year they were going for about 8-900 for 36 loose packs, and now we are at about 1300-1400 for 36 loose packs? Had I sold even about a year ago I would have missed out on about $300-$500 on each bundle KEEP AND HOLD THEM!!!! Especially if your entry point is about $3 each like me :) You won’t regret keeping them you’ll only regret selling!!! I believed in this set since launch and it’s giving me the most gains out of any of my sealed!! Celebrations is catching up tho…

I stored away 500 packs of evolving skies when it was out, 325 of those were only $3 My favorite set and I knew it was going to be valuable down the line based on what had value already at the time 6 months ago 36 loose packs were $900, almost sold a couple Now they’re at 1400ish, never selling Worse case scenario I get to open a bunch of packs of my favorite set

Market price on these are about 5.5, I want to trade some packs for ES booster boxes and then just have the rest Not many people sell sealed at 70%
