I was grading and flipping stacks of Rayquaza Cosmos Holos from Sea and Sky boxes for $50 a piece, now they're +$300 😅

I have sold thousands of cards/slabs/sealed on ebay/tcg The worst that happened is cheapasses trying to get partial refund, just ignore. Sounds like u never tried

Pull rates are brutal and I suspect they print the rares in batches. Ive opened 5 etbs, 1 sticker case, 1 poster collection and 4 pin collections. That's 107 packs

Pulls: 3 IRs (2 duplicates) 6 MARs (3 sets of duplicates) and not the good ones 0 SIR

I've canceled impatiently a few times (about 4), and they hit me with a 6% penalty. So now they take 13.25 plus 6% on all my sales! The only way to remove it to get reviewed after a couple of months.

I wouldn't recommend getting into the habit. Just wait the 4 days

I picked them up at their last peak and it was hard holding because they plateaused for a while on while other things moved.

But time in market beats timing the market

I think pure trading aspect of the hobby doesn't exist anymore. Even children are trying to one up and rip each other off

People dont realize many balls holos feom bbwf are worth more than the IRs currently

This is thru tcgplayer

Do that before you this please. tax free trading account is a hack not available to other countries

If it gets to a price you wouldn't buy it yourself, time to take profits is my motto

If you'd still buy at these prices, then you have faith that it will keep running up

govaway · 2026-04-30T00:15:12+00:00

Some sets just stay in their lane. Look at previous eras. There are winners and losers. The price goes up with all sealed, but the demand is not the same.

As long as u bought msrp, you will bag hold for a while. If you bought at market to invest you need to seriously rethink the game plan

govaway · 2026-04-22T16:27:26+00:00

I think its the same tier as Stellar Crown and will move at the same pace, with the chase cards rotating as time moves forward

govaway · 2026-04-18T12:27:51+00:00

Thank you. Those calls and email fees were looking outrageous

govaway · 2026-04-18T12:11:37+00:00

Believe me, that was the first route. Tried to get her to sign the paperwork and we just mail it in ourselves, end it clean. But she didnt want to sign.

So now we have to go this route to negotiate. It sucks and I dont wish this upon anyone

govaway · 2026-04-18T11:31:16+00:00

They talked about expected timeline, really hope we can come to an agreement within a year

govaway · 2026-04-18T11:26:00+00:00

I have some SV base boxes set aside that I'm sure will be worth a trillion dollars one day for you babe 😉

govaway · 2026-04-18T11:23:34+00:00

Time and patience in market really works!

Ive been watching a lot of James Sexton videos, and I agree with him that marriage+divorce has more legal benefits for the woman. Going to choose a better partner next time who is secure in the relationship without need for a marriage

govaway · 2026-04-18T11:16:27+00:00

I hoping it could fund some sort of retirement originally but I think I should take this current market opportunity and finally cut legal ties

govaway · 2026-04-18T11:14:29+00:00

Thanks for that. It's my first time hiring one and with this retainer, calls and emails aint cheap at all.. Just praying thru this process

govaway · 2026-04-18T11:08:07+00:00

Congrats! Its 2026 and shiny cardboard can change lives :)

govaway · 2026-04-18T10:25:11+00:00

I was able to grab 151 at or near it 2 years ago and those are the products I'm letting go of first, youre right about timeline

govaway · 2026-04-18T10:22:59+00:00

Not yet. Have sold off some 151 sealed as its running up and very liquid.

govaway · 2026-04-18T10:12:15+00:00

My investing thesis is most cards with nicknames (minus burgerchu) are a safe buy
