Hey Jake, I'm a fan of your channel and wanted to thank you for being one to take away the need for money to be such a prominent part of this hobby. At the end of the day, it is about being happy and as you mentioned, "Being a collector can be owning one common card" and I couldn't agree more. I've been collecting nearly 23 years and have spent millions of dollars on it over that time (amassing many valuable cards in the process - but that's not the point). At the end of the day, it is not a competition and a collector or someone who enjoys the hobby should do just that, collect. More importantly, share that excitement with others in a positive and non-competitive way. Grading is a grey area as many people grade cards for the purpose of either selling or prestige. At the end of the day, I do like grading cards as it keeps them in good condition, but that's just me. I prefer PSA as they let you keep an index of your collection unlike other grading services. (I started when I was 7 years old in 1997 in NYC and shadowless 1st edition charizard was my first pull. Cheers.

I think grading from the EU is so incredibly expensive (at least with the bigger companies) that it is almost never worth the cost, wait and trouble. Even with a middle man. I'd rather just buy slabs from Ebay.
@littlegloom2 жыл бұрын
you're right. not only do the cards themselves cost a lot more, but grading does too. i also just buy graded cards on ebay

I would say that the pikachu world collection (2010) is a great value play currently around $300 on ebay with some gorgeous pikachu art and comes with 9 pikachu cards with unique art work. Also if you want to recoup your spent $ eah card has easily sold for over $100 after grading pretty overlooked product tbh. Great work as always!

11:06 I also highly recommend picking these cards up. I bought the blue strategy, green exploration, and reds challenge from the tag team all stars set and graded them with cgc and they all received pretty high grades. Even if these cards were to be released in english, i think the quality of the cards would be less than the japan ones you can buy from ebay. But this made me want to pick up the misty card from tag team as well, the set is an overall great set!

"don't try to collect everything" is one of the most important pieces of advice for people starting out or even people that have been collectors for a while! it's definitely tempting since there's so many amazing cards/boxes etc but it's just not feasible & could lead to burnout pretty quick!

So I recently discovered I have a copy of Heart Gold for DS Big Box Walmart Exclusive with the HoOh figure and PokeWalker Jacket. Apparently it’s pretty rare and exclusive. I think it would be awesome to do a video that’s just about the most rare or exclusive copies of the various main line games through out the years. And the respective collectables or even in game items and Pokémon they’ve released!! I know you cover mostly TCG but it’s food for thought!! Haha thanks man for all of the great content, not trying to shill just thought it was a neat idea

Obviously they didn’t like the price it sold for. eBay was no help. Love the channel & hope you keep the videos coming for a long time. Thanks Jake!

Ive seen raw cards on secondary market looking mint to gem mint if you.can see high quality photos before purchase and the seller is happy to show you then yes you.can pick up some decent condition raw cards that could potentially get 9s even the 10 grade. It is rare to find nice raw cards and you'll be fighting everyone else in the bids for them hahaha 😆
