    In Europe we are unable to get the Pokemon center ETB, because we do not have a Pokemon center after the UK left the Eu.

    i just went to a card shop the other day and saw the noctowl stellar crown etb promo (i thought it was the regular one) Then i went home and looked closer at the card. Turns out i spent 3 dollars on the pokemon center noctowl! i was so hyped lol!

    The way you describe things that seasoned pros might find trivial compared to newbies who haven’t heard of anything yet is really refreshing. You’re so welcoming into the hobby and it’s something I love about your personality! Keep up the great work! Loving seeing the content rolling out

    I've been on this boat since the start, thank goodness. I buy a case of each, open 3, and keep 1 ETB for the sealed collection. I have an abundant amount of PC stamp cards and at first I was dreading having some many promos, and now, I'm more thankful than ever.

    I have noticed a lot of these Pokemon center products going up in value and that makes it great for a sealed collection because if you have a sealed Pokemon center collection it would be up in value. Not knowing that the Pokemon company has printed a lot of newer sets along with Pokemon center versions the value would potentially be doubled to what it is now.

    My understanding is that the Paldea Evolved ETB did not always have the Pokemon Center stamp on the Pikachu card. It was some sort of distribution error?

    I've been consistent in the hobby for 20 years and personally do not like the Pokemon Center stamp on cards. I think it's ugly and detracts from the art. Imagine if they had made a 1st Edition stamp instead, or a better looking Pokemon Center stamp (Like a silver Pokeball or something?). People would be going nuts over having them.

    • @michaelcarrz2010

      The cards will go up regardless if you like them or not. It’s supply and demand. Pokemon center exclusive box for a reason.

  • @samersalama6275

    These SV Pokémon center promos go crazy in price. I love how you said the promo gem rate is low because there generally is damage or whitening of the card. It seems like the charmander from obsidian flames and the obsidian flames PC box jumped over night.

    ETBs are the only thing in stores, no one buys them. They slap a stamp on the promo card and sell them as exclusives from their official store and everyone’s buying them … genius move by Pokemon 😂

      PC ETBs always sell out. This is nothing new. My best advice is to learn the trends from this hyped set, don’t overpay for product, and be educated for the next release.

    I was a stay at Home mom with no money in my IRA or any savings of my own, which was scary at 53 years of age. Three years ago I got a part time job and save everything I make. After 3 years, I am 56 yo and have put $9,000 in an IRA and $40,000 in my portfolio with CFA, Evelyn Infurna. Since the goal of getting a job was to invest for retirement and NOT up my lifestyle, I was able to scale this quickly to $150,000. If I can do this in a year, anyone can.

    I was curious if there is any information or if anyone knows how other language cards stand. For example I have mostly Korean and Japanese cards and then a few English and Chinese sealed Promos. I assume that they are less but are they worth keeping for the long term?

    • @fromthescreen123
      @fromthescreen123 Місяць тому

      The Chinese sealed promos are worth keeping.
      A few vendors I have spoken to at card shows are quietly buying up Chinese cards whilst they’re so low in price … they’ll explode in price soon just as Jap cards did …. Supposedly 🤷‍♂️ it’s what I’ve been told

    Might be an unpopular opinion but I think the pokemon center stamp and the 1st edition stamp from base set is overrated. Literally the same artwork from 1st edition Charizard and Shadowless. Same thing here with Charmander. I'd rather have the non stamp one and save money. 😅🤷🏻‍♂️
