On the patients thing, even if u find that best deal or price, don't just jump on it. Listen to your gut. I've walked away from good deals and a couple times it turned out it to my benefit. So even good deals u need to walk away from sometimes.
I've been buying japanese only since 2019. Very rarely has english beaten japanese overtime. Team up/evolutions english boxes are the only thing I can think of that were worth it to buy over japanese.
@@vaporselfI'm sure you'll probably touch on this in the video but I think space is a huge limiting factor on those collection boxes. I love them too and wish I could pick them up to hold, but I just don't have the room so I stick to more compact items like booster boxes.
Spending $80 more on a case might not having a thing to do with looking for it cheaper. Maybe they really really trust the person they are buying from and know they won't be ripped off. That's worth it to people with all the scammers in pokemon
I guess so, but even trustworthy places have them for cheaper. And I guess eBay has good protection for buyers. Some people also probably don’t know of online card shops.
@@vaporself How long do you plan on holding? I think my thought process used to be 3 years, but now I'm thinking more like 5-7 to realize the gains I'm looking for.
People sell themselves short for opportunity cost. The idea that if they sell it now they can purchase the next big thing that will go to the moon.I have fallen for said witch craft.😂 Do you have a profit margin in mind where you would feel comfortable selling everything? 20%, double your money, etc? Great video bro🎉
It had all its gains at the start, RRP of around $50 straight to $150. Everyone waited for it to come down and it did a bit. But sellers were happy to hold.
Instructions not clear I ended getting a second mortgage and spend it all on Pokemon go etbs x10, 000
30 years from now, you'll be glad you did.
Fr Ive been spending weekly paychecks on Pokemon goods..didn't have enough to buy gas to get to work 😂
be careful!!
I took out a 100k loan and brought battle styles and crimson invasion loose booster packs 🔥 love a good laugh....
Keep up the good work sir
"dont spend ur money" most important part
I definitely spent my money too quickly at the beginning. Probably got too hyped getting into it and a bit of an addiction lol.
I did the same! You learn as you go.
Same here
4 months in, gonna slow down

Yep, you still need to use your judgement.
Example of a good deal you're glad you walked away from?
??
care to elaborate because I don't know how walking away from a good deal could somehow be beneficial?

I just picked up a Lost Origin Booster box case for $720 today.
How many in a case
6 booster boxes in a case.
@@MarcoHernandez-gi8bl sweet pick up
Nice!
What is the shop you buy from? The booster boxes
The Lost Origin booster box case was bought from shagsportscards
@vaporself Do you remember about how much you spent on the LO case?
Those collection boxes are the kiss of death. Booster boxes & PC etbs only.
They are definitely more work to sell off. However, I love collection boxes! Going to make a video about this topic soon!

@@vaporself It's not even that. They won't appreciate for much, and they take up a ton of room. Get rid of that junk.
What do you think about fusion strike booster boxes?
I think fusion strike is a good set! I think it's overshadowed by a lot of other sets in sword & shield.

are you planning on selling that flareon box ???
Sadly no, it's mainly just a collection piece for myself.
@@vaporself all good, great collection you have going!
Good stuff, very important
Thanks!
The biggest mistake is opening that sealed case 😁
Haha, if you’re talking about the Lost Origin booster boxes, they were actually bought loose.

@@rosssmith579 depends on what product it is and how fast they appreciate. There’s not a certain time frame tbh.
any discord group you recommend?
Great explanation. Thanks for sharing your experience.

Depends on what product it is. I'm not really sure on an exact number but probably at least double (before fees and shipping etc). Thanks!
All excellent points, great video 👌
Thanks!
How hidden fates etbs have been stagnate since the reprint in dec 2020 blows my mind
Edit: back then most people didn't care about Cosmic or team up
I guess it’s not as popular as some other sun and moon era sets.

Nice collection
Thanks!
What is your overflow plan, when you fill the closet up? Hahaha
I don’t think it will get to that point tbh 🤣
Best tip don’t buy any collection boxes lmao.
Haha, definitely more work to offload.
@@vaporself just the shipping I don’t like ha ha
@@mikewillripit very true!
@@vaporself regardless it’s a good investment. 😄
another great video!!!
Thanks!
