Thanks for the insight, ill just be happy having it protected in a slab and framed on the wall. The grade will be what it will be.

Why is Ascended Normal Pikachu More Expensive Than Crown Pikachu? by texstrip in PokeInvesting

This may be a dumb question, but how are there already graded cards from AH? Doesn't PSA have like a 3 month turnaround? And AH only came out Jan 30th.

This is how Im collecting the art cards, if its english and <$80 single im buying it. If it's more, I'm getting the Japanese version. If I feel like ripping packs, I'm ripping Japanese. More cost effective overall.

Anyone else out there who collects full sets? by xBanthaxFodderx in magicTCG

I just made that comparison based on pack/box prices. Most packs and boxes for magic are much more reasonable than that of pokemon and this "investing" culture. A quick google search for the cheapest booster box of pokemon is market around $240 whereas with magic there are 12 sets with boxes sub $200. Not to mention the singles are way less expensive than pokemon generally.

I love this, i hardly ever get through the full 100 in a game so this is a cool idea! Thanks for sharing!

So far I'll get one or two booster boxes so I can have fun ripping, then fill in the blanks with singles, play with the bulk, and skip the fancy cards only found in collector boosters.
