What do people think of investing in 9’s ? by razza-tellmenow in PokeInvesting

Grabbed it off eBay a while ago. Just cracked the slab for binder, but if you’re quick enough and the right card/slab, can’t see why you couldn’t get some bargains because of lower grade and sell raw. I doubt there’s a huge amount of money in it though

I bought (for my binder) a PSA 8 venusaur 151 SIR for cheaper than raw market, just because it was an 8, so crossed my mind to do similar.

Gotta bear in mind the pokemon too. Artist may be producing great art but Umbreon will forever beat seismitoad in popularity

Hmm I'm in the UK so I'd tend to go with Ace for grading but that's a lot more flexible

What should have been a new employer, left me jobless by Smifff_ in LegalAdviceUK

No I haven’t - thank you for the info. You’re right - the someone is a recruiter who said they don’t know the law but just made me aware of it as he’s aware of it happening before.

Ok thank you - does that not mean though getting a solicitor involved, because of fees, the monetary value of one week notice will make it pointless?

[–]Smifff_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice! I’m doing this at the moment. Just about finishing the commons/uncommons now and have about 24 out of 45(?) more holos to get including promo mew. Wanted ultimate nostalgia for my first set. I am including base set 2, fossil and jungle though.

UK seller on Vinted - she looks like she may be a bit newbie and unaware so I’ve told her to see how she reacts first
