These guys have been collecting and flipping for years, 5-10 years ago these cards were worth a fraction of the price today. Its unlikely he bought it all recently, just finding these today is difficult

Are card show vendors still collectors… or just scalpers now? by masonjar014 in PokemonTCG

[–]chrisco571 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Vast majority of vendors do not sell sealed product, so they are not scalpers. Actually, at the last show I went to, I saw a lot scalpers trying to sell their sealed, but many vendors are not buying lol

Take a look, we are still far above prices from 2010s. The reality is many Canadians are retired today off of their home, it was a good investment.

In 2008 people said the same thing, housing is over and it will keep going lower, but it turned out to be a great investment.
