The Great Alt Art Crash Is Upon Us

- The Great Pokemon Alt Art Crash Is Upon Us. After one of the biggest booms in recent history, the market has become increasingly quiet, and an interesting time is here.
We will now be seeing what exactly will happen with these Alt Arts as the market seems to be taking a different shift with prices becoming lower by the day. The recent boom of some of the Sword & Shield prices had made a lot of collectors hold their breath, though now it seems the market has taken a turn in the opposite direction.
It really begs the question if collecting Pokemon Singles is too volatile, these market swings seem to be incredibly unpredictable and leave a very difficult time to make decisions.
Where do you think Pokemon Alt Arts will go?

All of these cards have been on a up trend all year!!
They have a slight correction for barely a month, and your saying this is a crash?! Crazy
Exactly, this is just a new floor. It will go up again to like 700 then drop to 550 a new floor
I’m saying it’s upon us, not that it’s happened.
Slight correction? There's like 50% corrections to some of the cards and at least 10% on almost every single other one.
IneptCardCollector 50% drops on what cards? All the cards he showed are on yearly uptrends, they're correcting, happens in every chart you'll ever see nothing goes straight up lol
@@perrymiles3073 I agree with you that they're on a yearly uptrend, of course. I'm talking about alt arts from their ATH's. I've watched about twenty vids on it so I'd need to go back through them all to see what ones are down 50%. I'm not saying that the several cards in this vid are the sample set. Apologies if I didn't communicate that well.
Im buying all the S&V chase cards. They're mostly cheap as dirt now so there's no reason not too.
Everything save the magikarp and the Greninja are honestly really cheap
@@galientl4723 What about the Charizard and Mew from Paldean Fates?
yeah me to
@@philycsteak mew is still below 100 and Charizard is right in the line. Magikarp and Greninja are way passed that at this point.
@@galientl4723 That's true, the Mew has been rising in price the past few days. I need to get myself one as it's my favorite from the SV so far
Singles work when you buy blaziken at 180-200… 🤷♂️. I’m still up.
Lol I'm with you I got mine for 190
I got mine in a PSA10 for 225
@@123mrtippmann dayumn son big win tho 👀👀👀
Its only a win if you sell it at the current price
@@Villa_Kanto I tried to cash out before the dip, 🤷♂️ didn’t make it, I COULD sell it and still profit but at this point I’m happy to just keep the card and wait for the rebound. Might take 6 months, might take 3 years but it’ll rise again, and I’ll still have it for cheap ;). I cashed out on giratina and magikarp though, made some nice gains so technically the blaziken was free off my profits ! 🤷♂️
crash or not, people are still going to be hunting for them either way 😅
Facts
Coping at its finest. Yes, they will be desirable still, but the obviously over priced cards will eventually come back to the appropriate pricepoint
I'm interested if that 'hunt' will remain in the long run 🤔. I mean, in 5-10 years time, when the hype and novelty of alt arts is long gone...how will the 6000+ pop alt arts compare to the comparative rarity of the prior generations.
How will the 11,000 pop umbreon alt art compare to a 100-300 pop umbreon EX, LV.X, Prime, e-series ect. Not saying I have any answers, I'm just intrested to see how these crazy high populations will effect value in the long run 😵💫
But..my suspicion is, it won't be good 😕
I wasn't here when evolving skies was released. Now it's at a price point where opening the packs doesn't make sense. I did open some but the rough pull rates really keep me from opening any more. The hunt for me is now in Scarlet and violet. And i think with sets getting more expensive the hunt is obtainble for less and less people.
@@grydon6422what’s an appropriate price point? Who decides what the appropriate price is on something that doesn’t have an msrp and is deemed a rare collectible? Clearly we’ve seen many people are willing to pay $850-900 for a copy of the moonkitty or $450 for a tina? So doesn’t that make it an appropriate price point? Is $750-800 an appropriate price for the Latias Latios? Or $350 for the Gengar Mimikyu? It’s all about how many people want it and are willing to pay that price point. If a large enough group of people are buying at those prices then that’s what deems an appropriate price at that point in time. The spike was inevitable with the FOMO that came from sets going out of stock on PC and the subsequent crash was inevitable with everyone trying to realize their gains, but the whole narrative that it was ALL market manipulation and these prices were “absurd” or “inappropriate” is false. If the secondary pokemon market was so easy to manipulate you better believe it would be a non-stop manipulation frenzy until every single or product was manipulated to some degree. Market manipulation doesn’t work on that level without an external catalyst and that catalyst was PC’s inventory finishing. So in short I guess I’m just confused by the appropriate price statement.
Buy because you like the art work etc. Hold for 20+ years. Ignore the volatility
If you are in it for the money I wouldn't. Like you said, buy what you enjoy......if it is meaningless and is only investment value then it is painful when value is lost. If in 20 years it has gained significant value then you own a item you love and you can choose if and when is the best time to sell if you are needing funds for whatever reason. I buy what is meaningful to me so that if I never sell it, it is no bother to me to keep it 😅
@vamountainman2512 I would bet the value of whatever card you like now will likely be worth more in 20 years. I don't see why you wouldn't?
20 years is a long ass time!! No modern card will ever be a gold star!!
@@theoneandonlyconnection It is a long time. If you are buying cards as an investment and I would bet most people who buy Pokémon cards as investments are ages 20-40 then your investment time horizon is 20+ years. If you buy stocks or a home as an investment than you would have the same time horizon.
@@theoneandonlyconnection i totally agree
This is why grading is a scam, just buy raw and keep them safe
I don't get it. What are you referring to?
It’s a healthy pullback the faster it goes up the faster and harder it’s gonna come down that run was unsustainable and unhealthy.
Agree with this 100%
Loosing 10%-20%, after gaining 100-200% for most of the alt arts is still huge gains and very much can be considered "investment". Its rare for the cards to drop all the way back down to where they sat pre explosion. this has held for most chases over the decades
Most of your videos are on point. But at this video I think your wrong.
It's going down because al the gradeble copies are already bought out. So yes the prices dropped, but nowadays you buy most likely a card with less potential to grade. So that explains the price drop.
Besides that, prices in Europe didn't moved yet. I see that alt arts are still rising here, so I think some people are importing the alt arts from Europe since they are still a bit cheaper here :) .
For those 2 reasons I think it's just a little pullback before they gain even more ...
This, these cards will be the new "ponchos" of the future. This hype we have seen for these cards will leave a ever lasting hype for the cards. They have a large pop 10 report compared to other popular cards but that doesnt matter...These cards are the first in history that have seen such a crazy hype train and fomo to own them. When the dust settles, people who dont have one will wish they had, because these cards IMO are going to do stupid in the long term.
Appreciate that! It will be interesting to see in the next few months.
Thanks for tuning in.
@evgaman4391
Gosh, I’m sorry but there is so much wrong in your comment.. Let’s break it down.
1. These cards are *absolutely not* the first ones to have such hype, wtf are you talking about. That comment alone shows how biased and uninformed you are about this subject. And the funny thing is, most cards that have seen such hype and fomo before, have crashed/come back where they were. One example is the overall Japanese card boom a year ago. My Munch Scream Mimikuy went from 4k to 9k in a few weeks - guess where it’s now, back to 4k, and it was obvious that would happen, because I force myself to not give in to the bias. You called them ”hype” and ”fomo” yourself - those two things will *never* last, they’ll move to the next thing.
2. There is no such thing as ”ever lasting hype” lmao. That is the biggest mistake you can make in any sort of investing - ”everlasting”.. There has been one single hype period for these alt arts; there is much bigger chance the hype will eventually just move to the next big thing, than this being something special and long lasting for these specific cards
3. Cards from these new regular sets will *never* be the new Ponchos; Ponchos are what they are because they are very exclusive and unique promos. There is nothing exclusive or unique about these alt arts, even if they look beautiful. All alt arts look amazing, even the dirt cheap ones, and they will look even better in the future. That is not a big factor with card’s success.
4. The high pop report *absolutely matters,* and a lot too. The hobby is simply not big enough for cards with 10k+ pop to sustain their prices as high as they are now. Not anytime soon anyway, maybe in the future. Even a pop of few thousands is high for Pokemon cards, let alone 10k.
When the dust really settles, it’s the exact opposite what you are saying; these cards will be in the perfect prices for buying for anyone who wants them. You think they are ”going to do stupid” in long term because you are biased due to owning them, and wish them to do stupid - it’s not based on anything rational or factual analysis. That doesn’t mean they can’t do stupid in the actual long term, for the right reasons, but that requires for the hobby to grow a lot bigger first, and another nostalgia boom for this era of cards in the future. And that ”long term” is not 5 years, maybe not even 10.
@@grydon6422 Yeah didnt read all that bologna. And I said in the end its my opinion...Sounds like you have a problem with others opinions, thats on you...And all this you wasted time to write is YOUR opinion. But hey we will see whos right in that long term ;)
Moonbreon is a 650-700 usd card. I think it will continue to correct.
The biggest lie is " i bought because i love the artwork" (not everyone). If it was really about the artwork, you'd just by the japanese or korean version. And yes that's what i've done.
Great point!
Plus the Japanese versions often have more vibrant art and/or better full-art textures
Nah man. Most cards look better in English. I like being able to read the cards. Certain cards look better in Japanese tho imo
@@devonscope6222 Yeah i agree with you. Biggest reason is that you can't read the card.
@@newjones1754 who cares! Majority of collectors don't actually play pokemon card game! Plus the pokemon is written at top of slab and pokemon is Japanese.
That is why I buy singles to collect strickly. It happened one time during the GX Alt Art boom, That I sold the Tyrinatar & Sableye GX for 250$ CAD because I felt like I wanted something else for that same price (and Knew it was a boom)
But every alt art that rise and fall, im still not moving, selling or buying. My Sword n Shield binder is done. No master sets, bu everything is organise and it won't move.
Don't by single to make money people.
Sure if you buy at the top, you’d be sweating
Or just buying for value as an investment. Buy what you love and you are happy if it never needs to be sold at all. People using card stock as a stock market is wild and ruins the hobby
“Singles are not for investing”
That’s so true man. The difference in investing and collecting is powerful when it comes to TCG and you nailed it there. Hope to see alt arts keep coming down for a bit, but we’ll see where the money goes next. Keep up the great work and have a great week!
Appreciate that my man!
I sold most of my alt arts at their highs. I took that money and deposited it into my ROTH IRA
These are the wins we want to hear!
Yes you did well! you can always buy them back later.
The lugia is off right now because of the *walmart god packs*. A bunch of lugia coming in to the market. I actually think that one will drop pretty quick but bounce pretty quick too. I think this is a solid 150-200 card along term.
Wasn't just walmart, best buy had them for a few weeks as well before the news got out.
@@niiiiiiccceeethey still do I’ve been ordering them everyday for two weeks because they limit you to 5 per day but so far I’ve opened 25 god packs from them
Your editing is getting good bro
Appreciate that my man!
Can you share any thoughts on CZ? Singles and sealed?
This is not a crash this is just a new floor, there will be a new high again, then drop to a new floor ‼️
Correct!
I have already been seeing in my local Facebook groups that people are really struggling to sell these expensive alt arts.
So that might mean that will undercut each other and it will get cheaper for the people that still want them.
Thanks for all the research!
Any time!
10% in 1 week is nothing. These are pieces of cardboard that's value is tied to absolutely nothing except the scarcity and the demand. It would be crazy if they weren't volatile.
It's a healthy correction considering alot of these alt arts pumped over 2x this year
It's not a crash, it's a correction.
I definitely agree with you on these crazy chase cards but you forgot to mention Lugia dropping because of the God packs of Silver Tempest showing up for the second time. I personally found some and pulled the Lugia v alt and rainbow vstar from 8 packs. I personally think that card has a strong future just because it's survived 2 different sets of God packs and is still a pricey card. I thought for sure it would have dropped below $100 but it never did. Crazy! Great video as always!
They're just finding their new floors. They were very hype, the demand was up, everyone got their cards, the people who wanted the cards got them, demand teetered off, and now it's leveling back down. It'll stabilize, then gradually rise again.
Seems to be the case. It will be an interesting next few months!
First of all I want to say … I have seen all your videos.. everyone really helps me return to reality… I spend huge amounts of money on Pokemon.. you name it I got it… but your channel is by far my favorite. It’s a super realistic approach and has always amazing view points that drive home…I can’t believe you don’t have over 100k in subscribers… just know I appreciate all your videos and your awesome very knowledgeable breakdowns of this hobby… keep rocking on…. By the way one question… nobody is mentioning nor have they talked about the Celibe V card… your thoughts on it
I appreciate this comment man. I really do! And yes Celebi V, I'll need to do a deep dive, may make a video for it! Thanks for the inspiration and lovely words.
On which website do you look the price chart up?
TCGplayer
I don’t agree with you on this one chief. Love your channel and content overall but this video feels a bit like you’re capitalising on the fearmongering happening. It’s healthy not agreeing on everything tho, and who knows maybe you’re right in the end (I guess we’ll see in 20 years time, won’t we 😂)!
Also it’s nice to see your channel blowing up - good work 👍
In the era of “15 second attention spans” I’m sure it’s hard for the masses to see 3 months into the future, let alone 3-5 years. Patience is a virtue 🙏🌊
The alt arts will definitely take a hit in value real soon. Its only a matter of time. Great video man.👍
Hey Philip i dont comment on videos but i just wanted to say thank you for all your work and what you do, i enjoy watching your videos, your very knowledgeable and genuinely trying to help people in your community, so thank you
I appreciate that! Really do. Thanks for taking the time to watch the videos.
Your contents are nice and very informative on Pokemon collecting and investments. Keep it up!
Thanks, will do! Appreciate the feedback.
How is it a crash if there still up?
Do you see them setting new lows then?? I personally think these cards may correct a little further before going for new highs. All the chase cards will be $500-1000 in 5yrs time IMO
If they reached new lows it would be really shocking. I can’t see that happening, though who knows….singles are anyone’s guess
Love the video man! I think that Fusion Strike will totally appreciate in value in the long term so it's still a pretty good investment imo :)
Most definitely!
From an actually analyst and economist stand point I have to sadly say you are wrong.
Study M2-M3 money supply and you will see that retail isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. It’s the opposite actually.
Right now is a buy the dip opportunity.
Everyone should be buying alt arts that they have seen volatility.
I'm not buying alt arts because of the prices. makes more sense to pick up cheaper ones from scarlet and violet.
Excellent follow up video to the alt art FOMO.
Thank you!
You have really good videos 👍 I will start posting on my channel this weekend!
Good luck!
I watch a lot of channels on the investment side, hands down this channel in my opinion is the best in the world, close second is Oz , 3rd Colin ( Pokeoffice) , he’s from Canada like myself, keep up the great work Phil
I agree i watch most of them and this is something different from all the others.
The pokerev of Pokemoninvestment.
I appreciate that a lot man, I really do!
I have done this strategy with stock so it makes sense people will do this with pokemon.
Price spikes Of, That Kind Always end up Coming Back To earth. I’ve seen it happen a few times since 2020. It’s funny arguing with people that are in denial in the comments of all these videos, talking about price spikes.
My take is that these chase cards are rare to begin with and in order to have a chance to get them all, you'll need to spend thousands of dollars on booster packs or buy them directly from someone etc. They will only print so many of them and when they stop, the supply will be limited and the demand will be higher. So logically the prices on these rare cards will only go up over time. I highly doubt pokemon will ever go away. It seems to me the market is demanding more art styled cards, and pokemon is capitalizing on that and will continue to do so going into the future. I think we are entering into a golden age of pokemon collecting. It's only getting more popular as time goes on. With all of that considered, the rare cards in good condition will likely be good investments in the long run 10-20 years+. If you look at 3 months of volatility that's literally a blink of an eye when it comes to investing.
I wouldnt even call this a crash because other alts are still going up or maintaining. Id say its leveling out. Also its summer time. Folks are selling things off and taking vacations. Pokemon cards notoriously dip during summer months. By fall there will be a rise again and a dip again around Christmas and January. Happens all the time. Its why you have to know when to take advantage of buying during certain seasons, as well as buying something different when everyone else is buying high from fomo. From my perspective I'm up big on the alts when I got them 5 months ago. I got a giratina v for 180 usd, so for me if I wanted to sell, I'm up. As a collector I doubt I will ever be able to get it for that price again, so I'm holding. And if I ever had to sell for some reason, chances are I'm still up. And thats just one of the alts. Stuff like Machamp for 65 bucks, Espeon for 170 (graded), Leafeon for 125, etc I'm way way up. I got a psa 10 Sylveon for 190. Not a brag but buy at the dip isnt just an expression. If anyone bought Magikarp 5 months ago theyre up 5x.
100%. It will be interesting to see what happens in the next 12 months!
@@phillips.collectibles Absolutely. There are a ton of flippers and scalpers right now trying to make a quick buck. Best way to avoid them is buy going left when everyone else is going right. The idea as a collector is to flush them out of the market and hope they move to something else. Before it was sneakers or retro video games, so hopefully something else comes along they think they can flip. The next few sets look really good. By then folks will be appreciating SV and realize they actually like it. Tale old as time. I already worked on completing the SV IR and SIR's. Cheaper and better than SWSD alts. By the time everyone else is on board the prices will be much much higher.
This is why I ONLY invest in E-series era and older.
I agree with what you are saying but I do not believe it applies to singles.
Most people are collecting these alts for there master sets or displayability not for investing. For that reason no one will panic sell. Now when it come to sealed I believe everything your saying applies 👍🏻.
Thanks anyway for the hard work 👍🏻😎. I do realy enjoy your vids.
Lmao most are down 10% from the peak it’s not that crazy. Pretty normal to have corrections. If they drop 40-60% buy more. Only people that are worried are the gamblers and will get crushed for having a short term mindset.
They’ll probably drop that 40-60%, they are way too overpriced now due to folo and hype combined. But yes, there is a chance they are a gppd bet long term
i mean if ur investing i wouldnt ever buy anything that isnt sealed. if ur buying singles ur buying them to collect that should be the bigger picture here imo. i have a small slab collection that i dont plan on getting rid of but my sealed collection i am selling like half of it in 5-10 years.
Good point here!
Big question do prices dip when a new content is about to drop? As attention is pulled to the next set? (Shrouded Fable)
Not usually a thing no
If you have bought into the fomo and grabbed a lot of these alt arts at it peak is is a good idea to hold a be patient on these singles? Do you think they will rise in future
Did you do that out of curiosity?
@@galientl4723 and I like the cards
Yeah it’s the long game for purchases before June this year
Sold 12 SWSH Chases Cards last week including 3(Rayquaza Vmax SIR, Giratina V SIR and Gengar V SIR) of the Top 5 Chases Cards for Maximum profits👍😂🙏🏼Great Video as always Mate.
Very nice! You won.
I'm really glad I watched this video. Could I get your opinion on something? I have been holding onto my alt arts for years now, and especially with the boom. Now with this dip in price, should I hold on to them and see what happens or sell as soon as I can? Would love to get your perspective here, I cannot decide. Love the videos as always!
I have you been holding them for years you are for sure in the profit. So i would say sell if you want the money but, if you want the cards keep them.
🔮 very good analysis.
Im so happy i bought my blaziken for 200 aud a while back
Nice pick up
This is why i invest in sealed and collect cards i like.
The best option!
Your channel is going banana's Great job with the channel.
10k subs withing 1-2months im sure. You really deserve it. Your channel and content stands out from the others.
If you ever need a mod or help with the channel. Let me know i be happy to help out. Keep it going real information here!
Thank you very much! I may need one close to 10k and funny enough you’ve been on my mind!
@@phillips.collectiblesHaha that's nice to hear. I really enjoy this channel and also in the comments there are some real nice conversations. it would be my honour to help out😁Let me know by that time.
I love your explanations
Happy to hear that!
When the price dips, it's time to buy!
Are these not corrections?
I wouldn’t call the alt arts a crash when they’re more in demand and higher priced then vintage
A first edition charizard is really expensive though.
I think everyone want that card but, not alot of people can pay it. I think that's why modern is more in demand because it's at a reasonable price to open. Sealed vintage damn that's crazy priced.
Idk man to me, a crash is having them drop for more than 300 bucks. They’re still expensive at those price lmao
Sword and shield packs are a good investment if you can get them at retails stores for standard prices, but at 12 bucks a pack for evolving skies and I’ve seen as high as 40 on whatnot for a sleeved booster pack, I’m gonna hard pass.
Great video my man, so how long has fusion strike been out of stock in the us as it’s still on sale here in the uk on the Pokémon centre ?, I have ripped 3 boxes in the past 3 months 😂
Did you pull anything good?
Unreal - any pulls?!
@@phillips.collectibles no chase cards pulled unfortunately, I find it crazy that on price charting fusions strike booster boxes say $231 at 2 sales per day when they are still available on the Pokémon centre uk for £143 ($180) maybe people are buying them here and reselling them to guys living in the US but I find it hard to understand as there would be a hefty shipping cost for that surely ?
@@Leeroycfc It's really expensive to ship something to the states. Yeah it's probally profit but, also a risk i would say.
Yeah this will be heavily contested topic for sure. I do trust in your assessment though. I think some singles will become great investment pieces but you’ll never know which ones.
I hope like hell your right I been trying to get the gengar vmax for a year now
Soon you will!
$50 drop on blaziken is relatively minor in comparison to its rise
Same goes for most of these big alts tbh
What are you talking about? The economy is great!
Best it’s ever been!
I pull today the illustration rare groudon!! In a pack inside the Paldea adventures chests i opened it for the Pikachu promo🎉
That’s not an alt art buddy lmao
Great pull!
Must admit I will continue my strategy of selling these big cards off when I pull them if they don't look good enough to grade 10. Has worked well for me so far
Keep in mind cards always go down in the summer every year....
Very true! And something important to keep in mind.
I collect singles, I invest in sealed
The best mindset
*Correction
Thanks for the video! Even though these cards are cool and of course I would like to collect all of them, I think I will stick to sealed for now.
Good choice!
Let that umbreon get to $700
I love alt art. But I would not pay that much for it. If I can find it in my booster I will be happy, if not I would not pay more than 10-15 usd for a card
So is there with liberty quits pokemon a random quote from some far far away franchise
That blaziken card is by far the best card that blaziken has SOOOOOO I think 500 dollars is a fair price…. for a pristine 10!
One of my favourites!
what if us buyers all just collectively not pay the extremely high prices people sell them for? that would then make then fall to much lower $$$ and im here for that
It's not crashing it's consolidating... give it some time it will only grow as sets won't get reprints
Time will tell
Bought a PSA 8 Leafeon vmax, cracked it out of its slab and sold it for 320 💪
A win is a win
Ofcoarse they will crash! Gone up way to much way to quick! The people who panicked and jumped on the hype train over paid! People with sense said yeh ill pass i missed out so moved on and got other cards not pay extreme prices!!
100!
Every market is the same right now tho
Sorry bro but this Title of the vid is just misleading... its having a bit of a correction, not a crash... also its summer time... people are selling their cards to enjoy their lives... come winter time it'll prob create a new high lol
Appreciate the feedback my man! Noted...and yes, you're right, a small correction.
These drops you keep talking about are 10% drops. Not huge drops for single cards. Let’s take a breath
If you know anything about investing, 10% is kind of a lot. Besides, Lugia has seen something closer to a 15% drop. With Giratina, it's near 20%. That's not insignificant.
@@xavierpena1996
Not in collectibles my friend. In my 401k or IRAs. Ya.
Is called buy as low as possible and save for long term.. who cares of the drops. Rn is perfect to buy alt they cheap af
Well it's a good thing I don't care about moonbreon alt art or Blaziken alt art or giratina alt ect. I don't get they hype. Plenty of other cards I like better and would rather have. Charizards for days. So many Charizard cards are under valued I don't even understand it. Guess people got tired of Charizards guess what it was all a plan so people could buy up Charizards cheap and prepare for Charizards return and spike to market dominance 😈
I agree Charizard cards are awesome. The full art from 151 is dope.
Which is your favourite?
It is a corection not a crash. Tell me what you do not understand
Yeah, I only buy singles from WOTC go S&M and no farther.
That’s cool - what are some of your classics in your collection?
@@phillips.collectibles I said from WOTC to S&M but in fact I have only WOTC and S&M haha :) Ofc besides some modern but I'm not invested in them. They're nice but I find vintage more beautiful even if their artworks are as simple as they could be. Sun and Moon on the other hand was the best time to collect full arts. My WOTC is basically tons of Sabrina related cards from Gym Heroes and Gym Challenge and this is the core of my collection, these are cards I loved back then, played them always etc. That includes every possible english and japanese card you can find but many of them have 10 or more pcs. Having also some rare promo with Sabrina (called Gym Badge) from 2016 I believe, tons of english but also hard to find in Europe where I live two japanese version as well. Then going further to full arts having some big hitters, mainly Lillies and Sabrina from S&M. The other cards from later eras are just usually psychic/ghost pokemon I like + trainers, trainer galleries etc. Very profiled collection (I highly recommend that because one's never chasing everything which is impossible to accomplish right now and more importantly - very expensive. Allows to stay calm when a new sets gets released :D), easy to track hence I don't need to analyze too many prices all the time.
@@RogueOne123these are awesome!
@@phillips.collectibles Thank you :)
I like ur content man but ur being so bearish 😅 it hurts more than it helps when u fear monger like this
Appreciate the feedback! Noted.
These things only affect fomo buyers. If people believed in the card and bought in early it’s no issue. There is not only panic selling, people are also selling their long term postions to take profits. You can’t distinguish the two on a graph so by default people take it as panic selling and it sets off a cascade of price dips. People will re enter at a point where they can at least realise a realistic chance of achieving some growth again but as a collector it’s a great time over the next few months
Your conclusions are flawed, singles are not the issue, everything will drop because of economy,. all prices will start to settle
This guy is dramatic! The alt arts have dropped a touch. But now flat lining a bit. Carry on. Chill out mate
mans salty he didnt pull any 10s
Before buying anything I apply the following:
Low pop ⬇️ + Low Hype ⬇️ + High pokemon popularity ⬆️ =
Potential Long term investment ✅️
Low pop ⬇️ + Low Hype ⬇️ + Low pokemon popularity ⬇️ =
Personal collection item ✅️ but not a viable investment ❌️
High pop ⬆️ + High Hype ⬆️ + High pokemon popularity ⬆️ =
Throwing your money in the bin ❌️
I learnt this lesson the hard way 😢, so you don't have to 😄
