I Buy 3 Pokemon Card Mystery Collections

[@TheOxyKun]

What a troll it would've been if all binders were stacked with energies. First collection was definitely the best. I just love seeing all the different artworks for 1 pokemon in 1 place.

[@zeskedoubell896]

Hello

[@joannanovak203]

[@jjacks50]

I can totally explain the Bad Binder Behavior on the last collection. I have a very similar looking set of binders myself. These were not "collections." Back when these cards came out, with the exception of a very few cards that were just the coolest looking (Holo Charizard) we didn't buy them to collect. We didn't really consider the down the line value. Honestly, most people that played Pokemon TCG when it first came to the US didn't think Pokemon would still be "a thing" in 20 years. We bought them to play the game. It was common practice to set up your binder with up to 4 copies of any card you thought you might want in your deck in each slot. You could just pull that slot and then put them in your deck. Multiple slots of each pokemon in the sleeves likely means it was a family that was using these cards. It was so much easier to flip through a couple binders to figure out the cards you wanted to use instead of rifling through a big box. Holos were not typically included because they are a pain to shuffle. OK, there was trading and collecting going on, but you had to consider if the card you were trading for was to put in a book and never use, or if it was to make your deck better. TL;DR anytime you see binders of cards sorted by type, then card name, with energy, that was a deck building binder, and not a collection binder. You need a different mindset when looking at those cards. I'm willing to bet that person has another binder they didn't include that has one copy of every card that ever crossed their hands, sorted in Pokedex order. That is the person's "collection."

[@Speakeazi]

As he was going through that binder I was just thinking, "man, that's exactly how I had my binder set up as a kid." I had no concept of card worth, I just traded cool looking cards for cool looking cards and stuffed my binders w/ everything I had. Albeit, my coolest shiny cards were in their own binders. I didn't even know about double sleeving until I started playing MTG

[@TopStoneMasonry]

[@bodaciouscans]

Same! This was exactly how my binder in the 90s/00s was set up too. Even down to the white office binder that I used and put a bunch of stickers of the gym badges and pikachu on to make it more Pokemon related

[@dizdawgjr34]

[@daleykun]

ngl most people I knew who traded them at school didn't even have binders, they would bring their entire collection to school held together by an elastic band

[@imwithyou38]

those old school energys once u add them all together have a pretty decent value. i know there are people out there that like to use those. they could easily sell for .50 a piece. those older first edition cards have some pretty decent value. i think it was worth it

Holy smokes! So many cards that I've never seen in my life! Wish I've gotten into this hobby sooner!

[@dojn684]

which ones u mean especially?

[@SegaDisneyUniverse]

@@dojn684 Well for one, a lot of those graded cards he displays in the background I've never seen before. And a lot of those Pikachu ones, like those older sets, movie promos, sports promos I've never heard of in my life. And I only have the modern sets in my collection so far. And anything vintage I've never seen.

[@Qin3]

Seeing the pikachu collection makes me want to improve mine. Definitely have to find a way to balance buying the pikachu singles vs the modern packs. Thanks for the content Pat, watching you taking the risk while I can’t afford that. Haha

As someone who has vended pokemon shows it's so weird seeing so many interested in Vintage. High end vintage sells well, but the $5, $10, and $25 dollar cards just don't move at all. Unless you have a following to offload these it just doesn't sell.

[@-Sangral-]

As someone who doesn't have any cards but is always so close to start collecting, I think the second mystery collection was pretty great. 150 bucks plus shipping for so, so, so many Holo and rare cards, so much different stuff, that would be a great starting point to already have a lot of cool stuff from so many different series, that also probably quadruples in price just a few years from now.

Pokemon cards saved my life. I used to collect them back in 1999. We was a poor family with my mum working 2 jobs and having to look after 3 kids on her own. She would buy me 2 packs a week if I behaved all week. I ended up with a lot of cards including 2 Charizards (not sure if they was 1st Ed or not) My so-called best friend at the time stole my entire collection. It broke me and after that I gave up on pokemon cards. My mum passed away in 2018 from lung cancer and I was severely depressed and planning how I would end my life. When sorting out all our old stuff from my mums house I found what was left of my collection that my mum kept sealed away since 2002. All the good cards cards was stolen but it was enough to set off a spark and got me back into collecting. I'm on disability benefits so I don't get much money but I'm slowly building my collection. As I can't afford to target specific sets. My goal is to complete a Pokedex. I'm getting there and its helping with my depression. I buy bulk cards as I'm missing a lot of common and uncommon cards. I love the community. People always willing to help you out and giving advice. I found this channel. Its interesting to watch your videos as I learn more about collecting and seeing cards that I wouldn't otherwise see. Thank you to all the kind-hearted trainers out there. Thanks.

That second collection. Having collected since gen 1 I can confirm that packs were filled with energies and numerous duplicates were very common early on.
