In this video on pokemon cards, I talk about how to start collecting in 2024. This video is predominantly aimed at those that have just joined the hobby, but I'm sure there's things everyone can take away from it.
Thanks so much to everyone that engages with the channel. It means a lot!

I love the 1 take, feels way more organic than cuts every 10 seconds really feels like a lot more of a conversational format instead of UA-camr talking at you, love it mate ❤
Awesome, thank you!
Respect the 1 take. I wonder how many tries you go on a video 😂 knowing me I’d slip a word and embarrass myself right before I finished a whole take haha
I do have a couple of slips in each video but, ah well 😅
For “investing” is really a simple as buying sealed products with high pack density. Booster boxes/bundles and just put it away for several years. I’m currently buying 151 bundles and S&S booster boxes right now. Even ETB will quickly take up too much room for how many packs they contain.
That's a solid plan bro!
First video I’ve watched, but subscribed after you gave Danny a shoutout. Very authentic and we need more of that.
Thanks heaps mate!
It’s truly an experience receiving Pokemon investing advice from an Australian. Desperate times call for desperate measures
Us poor Aussies hey 😅
Another day another great video. Thanks for the inspiration!
My pleasure!
I dont care what opposumbud says about you, your vids are good info
He hates on everyone
PokeOz spreads knowledge, Opposum spreads hate.
Yeah I felt like he had a hard time finding anything bad to say about oz, but was surprised to see him on there
Waiting for the day he does a video on CTR, oh wait he won't cos hes got no balls
Thanks, legend! I don't get involved in any of that. UA-cam is a content creation platform, so I just focus on doing that 👌
Love your advice! I am not a starter, but love this video as well!😊 Keep being awesome!
Thank you so much!!
Awesome video, helped loads! I'm focusing on completing Scarlett & violet 151 just got back into collecting
@@Tallpaaaul nice work!
Same doing 151. My very first Pokemon tcg and I'm 48yrs old, I wish I started when I was younger.😂
@@jauxed it's bigger than I anticipated lol I've just finished trick or trade 2023/2024 sets now focusing on SV 151
Thoroughly enjoyed this! Thinking of collecting myself hehe.
Go for it!
I like your Australian news reporter approach to talking about Pokémon cards , much appreciated
You're welcome mate 👌
Thanks Michael I just got back into this (since being a kid in the 90s) I chose a 151 UPC as my first purchase and am hooked now.😅
Nice work 👌
any one watching this even tho you have been collecting for 2 years plus
Another banging video bro!
Legend!
I sometimes don't realise that you produce these videos in one take, good job
Thanks legend!
Started investing beginning of January, also felt like i wanted to rip something... Last time 🤣 No enjoyment at all, im keeping myself to sealed and occasional one pack rip.
Watched youre vids, love them all, great ideas, great points!
Mayor part of my collection will be lost origin, affordable for me so it works great, also a few ETBs of different collections when boxes was alittle to expensive + a few blister/booster art set
Super happy and again thanks for the content and insights!!
Btw eu is such a different beast, way more expensive... 100dollar box? Alright 150 in eu 🤣
Not access to Pokemon center stuff but on secondary only..
Thanks heaps for tuning in bro! Appreciate it 👌
Should have known this 2 years ago when I came back in the game, had me saved a couple of grand 😢time to build up again and learn from mistakes
Happens to the best mate!
Great video.
However, how do you know 'what is investable'? How long do you hold these boxes?
True about the spending.....
Can we try and drop a "plethora" in ever vid from hereon? 😆....I just keep picking up Paldea Evolved 3 pack blisters, think they'll disappear from shelves in the next 9/12 months.
Hahaha, my old manager at work used to say it all the time, and we'd give him that much flack for it 😅
Recently started to buy Paldean Fates-packs .. atleast getting reverse holo's, rare's or S.I.R's 💪
Ordered yesterday, 3 Paldean Fates-booster bundles .. i want to pull Mew EX or Charizard EX hopefully !
Nice mate!
LOVE YOUR CONTENT!!!
Thanks heaps!
Awesome help as always 😊
Glad you think so!
I haven't collected any cards in years. I want to get started
Good work!
I’ve just started collecting, after opening a few packs I’ve decided to collect sealed pack art sets. You think that is worth collecting?
Yeah why not!
nice vid man. im starting to take the hobby more seriously and im not exactly sure how to store my cards. how do you sleeve and store your cards? do you double sleeve cards? how do you store toploaders and order your binders?
My good cards are in sleeves and then toploaders and on display. In terms of my binder, I've got this old school DBZ binder from 2000. So it's probably not the best example but it's sentimental and my lesser hits go inside there 👌
@@pokeoz91 thanks for the info man!
Great tips Michael👍
I like my sealed products too, occasionally I might rip open a newly released booster box or etb if I have multiples of the same set, and I buy singles I like when they dip in price after the initial hype has died off.
Who do you follow in AFL?
Nice mate. I'm a Hawks supporter, been a rough few years haha how about you?
@@pokeoz91 …I’m from Adelaide but I’ve been a Cat supporter ever since I can remember and one of the first finals I ever watched was the 1989 Grand Final, the Hawks beat us that day but hell that was an epic contest, and probably one of the best Grand Finals ever played, it had everything from Dipper’s punctured lung, Brereton’s busted ribs, God bagging nine goals and the Hawks winning by a single goal.
@@tredici72 I do remember seeing some highlights of that one, epci grand final!
You didn’t mention the cricket today
Aus are winning too easy, can't be saying the same thing all the time 😉
@@pokeoz91 I definitely agree talking about Aus wins is boring- I’m talking about the England come back I’m sure you’re thrilled about
@@richardhalahan1183 you definitely should get up in the 4th test, that's for sure. Good knock from Root!
Hey Oz have you seen the Team Up checklane blisters with the Pikachu & Mimikyu promo card?
I’ve been buying those because that promo is so good!
Pikachu is looking at Mimikyu like:
“Are you a zombie Pikachu?”
Yeah that's a sick promo. They're not cheap!
I love the channel! I’m getting into sealed product investing and your knowledge is invaluable.
What are your thought on sealed Japanese booster boxes vs English?
Great to hear mate! I think the same principles apply to Japanese 👌
The only time I open packs is when I find a crazy good deal. I got Crown Zenith for a $1 a pack and I opened all those bad boys lol.
Man, that's so cheap!
I'm not even sure if I've got an investment in opening Pokémon cards for the collection. But love the idea of working towards a better portfolio. Watching your vids have given me plenty of inspiration over the last couple of months 🦘🎉 great work 😁.
Glad to hear mate!
mate well done on the one take
Thanks heaps legend!
Before it’s too late into investing which set would you recommend collecting? That will for sure have value in the long run. I just bought the scarlet & violet temporal forces both elite trainer box’s. Or the 151?
I'd grab sword and shield while you still can bro!
Potential new collector here - I was hoping the 151 series would be one you'd recommend to start, any reason why you didn't? Gen 1 was my favourite so I assumed it would be the best one for me to start
It's also a great set to start, the pull rates are a bit tougher on English. Japanese boxes have seeded hits which could be more fun 👌
@pokeoz91 thanks for the tips! I take it there isn't another set that focuses on the earlier pokemon?
Would love to see a series of recurrent videos every 6 months or so that tell you what you believe is the best way to invest $100, $500, $1000 and $2000 given the market conditions at that specific time. That would be a great way to help for new people getting into the hobby, and you could even make a version for keeping it sealed and another all about cracking open the packs. Nice vid
Great video idea legend!
I want to start collecting again it’s been long time but this video has helped me to know what to do and start 👍 one question is there numbers on cards to put them in folder put them in right place
Of course! Glad it helped 👌
Hey brother, what would you say are the top 3 sealed products to buy right now in your opinion? I’m also investing in pokemon products as an alternative to stocks
Japanese 151 booster box, Lost Origin Booster Box, Fusion Strike booster box (in Aus they're still cheap!)
Do you think grading cards is overrated? I’ve been on a tear and grading everything but it’s definitely not cheap either
It doesn't do anything for me. I don't get anymore enjoyment out of graded pieces. Some people love it though 👌
Hey man, I have a question. Where do you check cards prices? Do you use multiples sites?
Normally just TCG player. But that's U.S pricing and of course prices change country to country. Ebay sold listing's is always a good place to check too!
Im new to investing in pokemon and Is it good to buy only Elite box ?
I prefer a booster box over an elite trainer box 👌
@@pokeoz91 ill start slowly haha . Btw love your video ill watch more for helping me investing
Hey mate. I have a question for you about buying singles. Is there somewhere you'd suggest buying single chase cards that are pack fresh/ good quality? There's not many options in Melbourne from what I've been able to find.
You talking modern bro?
@@pokeoz91 Yeah. I’m looking for 151 to finish my master set. And then me and my girlfriend collect chase cards from sword and shield era to present era.
@haydensault4345 Do you have an LGS nearby?
@@pokeoz91 Unfortunately not. Im in the Melbourne CBD but the few card stores here dont have much of anything in the way of singles. I was just wondering if you knew of reliable places that would be a good option even if its buying online.
@haydensault4345 ebay graded is always a good option. A lot of modern chase cards in an 8 or a 9 can be similar prices to mint raw copies and you know their condition 👌
I need some help what packs to purchase as my friend is coming from USA.
Green some 151!
I'm a big fan of Danny and think fun cost is something overlooked to easily in the hobby. There's many hobbies/ past times that people spend money on and have nothing physical to show for it after, but they do it for the fun and enjoyment they get from it. I just think sometimes people forget this too easily and focus solely on the value of cards they obtain from pack opening.
100% mate!
Love it
Did you get ur hands on a pikachu van gogh yet?
I haven't man. I really only collect singles that I love the art work of and I'm not a fan of the van gogh pikachu.
Can the Japanese bb be weighable????
Definitely not bro 👌
temporal forces looks like another underwhelming SV set :(
I like how we're getting to see all the new paldean pokemon but we need more gen 1, gen 2 and gen 3 chases spread amongst them!
Can you tell me how to collect One Piece in 2024?
Sure thing! I might have to start a One Piece channel though 😅
@@pokeoz91 I’d tune in 👍
Elite sweater
Thanks legend!
lol great start
Nice mate!
Nice hi I want to get a 49.99 box
Go for it!
