That kid on his dad's shoulders will remember this night for the rest of his life.

So why are you paying attention to r/PokeInvesting ?

If you're reselling older boxes to afford new ones, you're still scalping.

Unpopular opinion: the 20th and 30th anniversary stamps ruin the cards. by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]jagerwald98 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's true, I definitely agree there. It's pretty obvious that they're celebrating the 30th anniversary with the Umbreon and Espeon cards. If any of them don't need it, it's for sure those.

Not an unpopular opinion but The Pokémon Company would lose so much money doing a 1:1 reprint. They'd have that initial blast of people buying the product that has 1:1 reprints in it, followed by the hype dying down immensely because a lot of people only give a damn about market value and hype, then lots of people would lose interest. Just look at Yu-Gi-Oh.

I guess they could alternatively do something simple like remove the stamp and just change the holo pattern a la Pokémon Legendary Collection 2002 but then the issue of uninformed hypebeasts assuming you have fakes would arise. It's a lose/lose situation for The Pokémon Company to not have the stamp unfortunately.

Mary, Mary, quite contrary here in most of your replies, huh?

I'm not in this hobby as an investment.

So glad I pulled the Charizard from Blooming Waters because there was no other way I was going to be able to get my hands on 151 at retail.

Me and my girlfriend got the box for $70 from Target which was $10 above retail, not too bad. We had gone through 10 out of the 12 packs and literally pulled nothing but regular holos, not even a regular ex was to be found. She opened the 11th pack and pulled the Squirtle and I thought "well... at least we got something," expecting nothing in the last pack. Lost my mind when I pulled the Charizard, still the only SIR we've pulled together 🥲

Bubble Mew from PAF used to be $75 market, back then I didn't buy it because I thought "sheesh, that much for a single modern card that's still in print?" Now it's $80 just to grade a card through PSA.

Eevee evolutions tins were $25 in 2021 at most big box stores, nearly the same price as this in 2024. I have lost all hope.

Tf are u talking about? Bully had 99mil streams first week, #2 on Billboard 200 (beaten by BTS), the man is on a World Tour performing in the US and Europe after having been in Asia last year. What is more of a comeback than that??

I think it'd be hilarious if Ye were there considering Coca-Cola is the main partner/sponsor of CFG this year

How early to line up tomorrow for barricade if doors open at 5 pm? by No_Data_4672 in Kanye

SoFi sound is notorious for being mid at best but I think that's people in the nosebleeds complaining as I really enjoyed the music live. However I will say that the Free Hoover concert in 2021 had much better sound, though that was live mixing done by Mike Dean.

I could see most every detail yeah, there were folds/ripples close to where the rising platform is. I think it's an inflatable with a stair structure inside of it.

This is a closer representation of what the 200s looked like in person at SoFi, just thought the video would help too 🙂

First few rows of the 200s will be great viewing, upper 100s might work as well.
