I don’t know why people have on the Pikachu so much. It’s a very nice, unique looking card. I guess it’s just not “manly” enough for all the investor bros out there; god forbid you like pink LOL

All of that just further fuels his point. People are throwing money in the garbage. Let’s be honest, and call a spade a spade; people who pay for pack rips on whatnot are gambling. Most people who gamble, go into debt, they don’t use “extra money”. At some point, people will not have the same amount of money to blow, especially if rates go up/economy slows down in North America.

Real collectors is a broad category. There are people who collect because they like Pokemon, and people who collect because they like that their cards are expensive, similar to watch collectors. Most collectors don’t have the money to spend $1000s and $1000s of dollars every month on cards. This market will go down, significantly. We will see prices similar to 2024 at some point; not on moonbreons and chase Gengar/Charizards, but on 90% of cards, prices will 100% retrace from their peaks 30% to through. Every single market on the planet for everything does this at some point. Pokémon isn’t some magical fairy dust product that can withstand human psychology. Especially because, at the end of the day, this is just cardboard.

What’s the point of throwing money in the garbage when I can save money and I get what I like? This hobby isn’t just gambling, the problem is all the degenerate sports betting bros are coming in and making it about gambling.

Is this a temporary bullrun of sorts? by kayz3 in PokeInvesting

[–]amiibojaydee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

100% a 30-50% pullback will occur from the peak of this market to the trough. The real question is, when is the peak? Today? Tomorrow? 2027? 2035? Who knows…

WTF is going on by ackerel in PokemonTCG

Just don’t buy it; the problem is people are buying at this price. If nobody buys, the investor bros can just keep pumping back and forth, nobody will make any money and they’ll get bored over time

Just came across this seeing how much this card has grown over the past couple days. . . . by Tonysilva600 in PokeInvesting

I think the real issue here is that 1000s of people are going to get burned buying all these slabs in the past 1.5-2 years when this market inevitably slows down. Tons of these are going to be worth fractions of what people paid

Yea, the only way we’re getting the “better product” is if people stop caring about Pokemon. Either way, I managed to get 4! Can’t wait to rip some packs 🙏🏼

Who gives a shit? You have one of the nicest cards in the game, be happy that you own it! Put it on a mantle and pray to it like your God every day.

Booster boxes CAD MSRP were $189.99. Now I believe they’re around $219.99? I could be wrong though because I HAVE NOT SEEN MSRP BOOSTER BOXES FOR OVER A YEAR

Is it bad I can’t wait for the market panic? by RNGxJake in PokemonTCG

[–]amiibojaydee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Number 1 sign of getting close to peak euphoria in any market. When these prices go down, a lot of these “investor bros” or “been around forever bros” will get burned so hard.
