    3 pack blisters and sleeved boosters are underrated and worth picking up at a decent price. That said, if I'm picking these up, I normally try to get case quantities (144 sleeved boosters, 24 3-pack blisters, 16 checklanes). I think long term, it'll be easier to sell case quantites, not to mention it makes it much easier to store/ship as well.

    • @PikaPikaPapa
      @PikaPikaPapa  7 місяців тому

      Great point!!! That would also make shipping a little easier too while likely lowering your acquisition cost on the front end. Excellent call out my friend!

    Really loving the videos on these overlooked sealed products! When we look at historical data for blisters from older sets we see that these types of products have tons of room for growth and often times see some face melting price action as the years go by. I would love to see some similar videos on tins and box sets as well, everyone is always hyper fixated on booster boxes (of course I am heavily invested in BBs as well) but Pokemon has so many great products that rarely get this type of content covering them.
    Hope to see more videos like this in the future!

    • @PikaPikaPapa
      @PikaPikaPapa  7 місяців тому +1

      Thanks my friend!! I’ve been loving the research behind these videos and I’m pumped to keep digging!! To your point I think that as BB prices get sky high these other products that contain highly sought after packs kick butt and take names right along side!! Lots more fun read watch to do but I’m promise more to come!! Appreciate the support!!

    I am SO SO glad you did this video. I don’t have $$ to always buy ETB or booster boxes. But I will usually always have some money to buy one of these. I recently bought a 3 pack bluster of evolving skies for $55(I just really wanted it 😅) it had the eeveelution promo I wanted too. I also bought one of chilling reign with the Eevee promo. I really plan on buying a blister a week of the sets that are really going up. Cosmic I really want, but i will have to wait for that to come down. Thank you so much for this video! I wonder if I was the one who made the comment asking about blisters?

    • @PikaPikaPapa
      @PikaPikaPapa  6 місяців тому

      Yeah you know I was wondering about that because I've never shipped one of these... I've just held them. I'll have to take the dimensions and weight and run it through Pirate Ship to see what the damage would be. Great call out man!!

    I like the invest-ability of the Fusion strike 3 pack blisters, especially the Espeon and the sleeved booster packs which are both still available on the Pokémon center. Another is the divergent powers tin at $24.99 with 2 evo skies packs, 2 astral and a brilliant stars. This is the only item on the Pokémon center that still has evolving skies packs and for retail its a win.

      PC has stacking tins for $12.99 w/ 1 ES, 1 VV, 1 BS.
      I think they were added recently, I don't remember seeing them when I was buying Divergent Tins a few weeks ago.

    • @PikaPikaPapa
      @PikaPikaPapa  7 місяців тому +2

      You know I’ve heard that from a couple people so that isn’t abnormal, which is disappointing for sure. The ones I find on retail shelves don’t seem to be so bad so maybe that’s a better source vs buying online? Great input and great call out my friend!!

    when a set releases my priorities are booster box, then 3 pack blisters, then single pack blisters, and lastly sleeved packs. Booster boxes take up the least amount of space for the value but single pack and 3 pack blisters have higher liquidity especially when booster boxes start going over $500

      @PikaPikaPapa  7 місяців тому

    A month or so ago I bought an evolving skies blister with Umbreon promo on TCG players website. At the time it was $50 with shipping. It arrived in near perfect condition. Last night I checked the price because I wanted to buy one more and now it’s $70! I also bought a chilling reign with an Eevee promo and now that’s sold out. I am not going to buy a blister for every set that comes out for $13 and keep sealed. It’s a win win.

    I love these, I have boxes and boxes full of them. They normally cost around $20 here, but you can usually get them for a deal if you buy a lot of them. I have around 100 of the umbreon ones from evolving skies, I think I paid about $18 each for them in 2022, you can't even get them here for less than $100 now, the cheapest I can find for sale is $138 for the umbreon one and the eiscue ones are still going for around $100 like damn I am so, so glad I stocked up on these.

    see i feel like the thing is tho is booster boxes have a higher demand even tho 3 pack blister might have a higher growth percentage not as many people wanna buy them mayby more full fledged collectors but i feel like many new collectors don’t really want them

    • @PikaPikaPapa
      @PikaPikaPapa  7 місяців тому +1

      Yeah I think in the lower prices BBs have a higher demand but I looked a lot on EBay and the 3 pack blisters sell at a pretty good clip too. I'd imagine as booster boxes get higher and higher in price 3 pack blisters might look more attractive to people who want a piece but don't have or wish to spend $700+ on a booster? Either way, awesome comment and great thought!!

  • @FrozenShadoW918
    @FrozenShadoW918 7 місяців тому

    3 pack blisters work but note that selling a booster box down the road at $200 or $300 will cost $8 to ship and selling these down the road at 25 or 35 will cost $5 to ship, you can do the %

      @PikaPikaPapa  7 місяців тому
