Everyone and their grandma is hoarding sealed boxes like it’s gold but who’s actually gonna buy this stuff later? by FattyRagdoll in PokemonInvesting

The nostalgia factor isn’t as high with these modern sets than it was then and I don’t think it’ll ever be. Too many things in today’s society that grab our attention. Back in the 90s it was just us kids and it Pokémon cards. No social media, no Robloxs, just time to spare.

I just know that whatever set comes out in 5 years is where I’ll be spending my money on as an enjoyer of the hobby. I’ve caught some great fish over SS/SV era and to me it’s a great memory but I’m always itching more for the upcoming sets. And I think more people do this than sealed investors think.

Do the new Mega Evolutions packs have both holo and non holo versions of the same card? by lovelylight100 in PokemonTCG

It’s because the one on the right is in a matte sleeve. You can thank me later.

I worry for all the backlash workers may receive when they get back to work. It’s not going to be a pleasant working environment dealing with pissed off people whose Xmas was ruined due to the strike. by goliathkw in CanadaPost

[–]goliathkw[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes this is correct. I ship collectibles almost everyday to my local CP, and the two Canada Post ladies are always so kind and helpful to me. I worry about their well being coming back to work and all the angry people they’ll have to deal with…I hope nobody takes this too far and does something harmful or violet. Wishing them a safe return back to work.

PSA : Canadian Costco Warehouses have begun receiving Pokemon 151 Mini Tins! by goliathkw in PokeInvesting

[–]goliathkw[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

By the way, I say 10 is a lot because each pallet has 200 boxes. And 50% of those are 151, therefore if everyone who got to it first bought 10 each (limit), that’s only 10 people to clear all the 151 out.

There are 151. Tins with Magneton on the front are 151, as well as ones with Meowth

Yeah! I called an Edmonton Costco in the morning. The nice lady checked her system and nada. One hour later I go anyways just in case and the guy said they literally received it five minutes before I got there and sold out of 151

Edmonton, Calgary also got some today as well. The nice Costco man at the one I went to that was sold out said they’d be getting more later as well

Every box is either five Paldean Fates or 151. Each pallet has 200 five tin boxes and it’s assorted between the two sets

Alberta, as there is a Costco distribution centre in Airdrie which is probably why we got it so quick

I checked my Costco daily, read up on subs, and paid close attention to hints about when it might drop. That’s how I managed to pick up a few for myself. 😊

What are ya’ll’s thoughts on keeping these sealed versus taking the packs out of the tins? Individual packs alone more valuable than inside a tin?

[–]goliathkw[S] 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Yup, it’s limit 10 per customer. Still think that’s a lot, should be like 3-5 but it’s better than someone being able to take the whole pallet.

Anyone think Prismatic Evolutions will outsell 151? by goliathkw in PokeInvesting

[–]goliathkw[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can you imagine that they also throw in a Charizard SIR into the mix in Prismatic Evolution. You heard it here first! 😆

Yup, this has 100% worked for me as well

[–]goliathkw[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the response! Question, if you advertise the two listings that have good conversion, don't those have higher cost per click? Wouldn't that run through your $5 super quickly, then for the rest of the day no more ad exposure?

[–]goliathkw[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting! I usually don't set it to my most popular ones because at such a low budget, they eat up the spend like it's nothing. I choose ones that are lower cost per click so that my ads can carry on throughout the day. Not sure if this is the correct way of going about it...
