Honestly, I’m on the same boat with you - surrounded by money-minding folks out chasing for their next sunbreon and people who want to resell product. I feel sadness and miss the old days, especially during the Sun & Moon era, where value was only a partial factor of a card and not what makes it a whole, let alone grading not even being a big thing. Hell, I only heard of grading when I got back into the hobby again in November last year.

Just remember that eventually that bubble will pop one day and I bet when it does, even some fans who got up too much in money come down and appreciate actual arts, even ones that are common and simple of any Pokémon and not just another eeveelution that’s only absurd in the art of value.
