@tiz bit oh really? cuz he's already sold one. There's also an ebay listing for all his stuff so you can buy the collection whenever you've got the 12M ready.

[@TylerSilver]

@@TVVOSTEP I believe he sold one cars to Logan Paul or the other Paul guy.. anywho he said he’s only selling it because of his excitement for the cards and I’m pretty sure he said he would never sell his entire collection. He may have it up for sale but he priced it so no one would really buy it, it would bring more attention to him and other things. Same thing he did with pawn stars, went on the show with his cards and never had the intention of selling them

[@johnfry8286]

He is aware of the danger of trends and how collectables have swings in value. He is right say now is a big upswing because I don't think its sustainable. He also understand if more beckett 10s appear it drops the value of his charizards. That's why he wants em all. If that unknown one got sold for 200k or some low balled amount he would be going mental 😅

[@DarkOri3nt]

Cos that card has a huge effect on the value of his two cards. It drops their value and means he cannot dictate their value. The person with the 3rd card has a third of the market but is the only person that'll set the price and value of the card. Their price effects his investment greatly.

I was about 8 when I started my pokemon collection and straight away I it felt like something that would be huge, and from a young age I always liked saving things, keeping them tidy and neat and it was the same for pokemon. I had that gut feeling. I kept them safe in a folder for years. I was the oldest out of all my cousins. When I was 17 and my 10 year old and 8 year old cousins were getting into pokemon and kept begging me for my cards, the oldest even begged for my 1st edition charizard. I held off for a long time but family members kept saying they were just bits of card I didn't touch, and I ended up being worn down and gave them almost my entire collection (for free as its family ) 2 years later they never talked about pokemon and asked about the cards to find out my aunt chucked them all away. It taught me a huge lesson not to feel pressured even when it comes to family.
