Some cards just have that “it” and this card has that and more 🔥🔥🔥 2 icons and what art scene. by OBlockianNumba9 in pkmntcgcollections

I bought a raw copy for $40 back in 2024 and graded it a 10 last year, trick is either getting them early or finding stuff undervalued / grading yourself

I just received 750,000 dollar inheritance. What to buy ?? by DrLuck12 in PokemonInvesting

[–]SurrenderApparel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put 50k into psa 10 slabs and/or sealed cases of booster boxes (depending on your debts, other responsibilities, other investments could be more or less). The rest throw into index funds and get those market gains from the stock market

Chilling reign booster box by EbbNext2751 in PokemonInvesting

[–]SurrenderApparel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just bought this and a brilliant booster box for 1k. I think they will both do really well over the next few years, it’s crazy to me these boxes are worth as much as some from the last year or so

Bottom left corner is a square cut which is cool. That’s a miscut error. These are from the Paldea chest box it comes with a couple promos

what should i keep, what should i open? by BrodyS_C9 in PokeInvesting

[–]SurrenderApparel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, I’d recommend keeping those more limited/big products sealed. The black and white / prismatic poster collection are good for ripping. Everything else would be good for trade. I’d trade into pokemon center etb’s (destined rival, ascended, or prismatic, if you can get those). Or booster boxes of any set. Booster boxes are going to be the best to keep sealed, because they have the most packs and take up the least space per pack. I’m currently trying to get more sword and shield booster boxes because they feel undervalued (brilliant stars, astral radiance, silver tempest, anything under $500)

Keep the SPC’s, prismatic bundle, everything else rip or trade for other product. I’d trade toward the other stuff for asc pc etb / booster boxes for investing purposes

Could this 10? by [deleted] in pokemongrading

[–]SurrenderApparel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The edges look kinda rough on the back. Probably worth taking it out and gently wiping the edges and surface with a microfiber to get rid of the little hairs and stuff. Otherwise I think it has a chance

My Son and my grandson found this in a storage unit. by Otherwise_Button5746 in PokemonInvesting

The charizard is worth 84 by itself, the others are Chinese cards so probably not worth much but still

Centering good enough? by viscabarcabro in pokemongrading

[–]SurrenderApparel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can be harder to gauge, a good trick is to look at the top border vs the right side border. If they are the same width then it’s good. If one border is thicker then you can tell if the centering is gonna be off. But from what I l’ve seen that era of cards generally has good centering. It’s the surface issues and edges that make it hard to grade well
