I gotta say, just getting a box or two at preorder for every set has been the chillest, easiest, and most affordable strategy for me lately. Very little stress, very little time spent “timing the market” etc and more time to actually enjoy opening the occasional etb or sleeved packs etc.

I love the IR's in shrouded. The problem with the set is poor top chase cards. If they had put the Kingdra and Greninja promos in the set instead of making them promos the set would be exploded in popularity. Pokemon is smart but sometimes I scratch my head at some of their decisions. People would have chased that greninja so hard. Not sure why they would make it a promo instead.

I totally agree that the main story is about the market strength right now. I love that you called out the point that people can demand "easy to pull sets" because of that fact alone and that's why a set like Obsidian Flames is growing slowly but surely. There is a market for both those high rarity chasers and people who just want to have a fun time opening packs and getting cool cards.
@nicknguyen89792 ай бұрын
I don't know if this comment will be seen, but I think it is safe to say that the price of the market is the way it is because of the set size. Twilight masquerade has a total of 11 SIRs and 21 Illustration rares, compared to Stellar Crown's 6 SIRs and 13 Illustration rares. Even if the hit rates are the same, it is easier to hit the cards you want because of the pool of cards that are available with stellar crown compared to the enormous size that twilight masquerade has.

I agree the market can be a huge factor in a set but I think it's driven a lot by the pokemon part of it. Because the set is small once people pull the cards they want and the set has fatigue faster then bigger sets people will stop opening it. Right now it's brand new but to your point though if pull rates are hard enough then people will continue to buy and either way I definitely don't see it dropping below 105. It's a decent set, and depending on the print run could do really well I just see it more like 110 for a while.
@Infamous1592 ай бұрын
This happens to every set every time. Nobody wants it as soon as it's released until nobody is buying it anymore, then you get wave 2 where all the people who bought at release are now selling at higher prices on ebay because of the fees and shipping. The wave 2 guys start hyping it up to justify their purchases. Then that wave dies at around 150-200 bucks and either breaks out like Crown Zenith or stays at or around $150 for years. Pokemon is the EASIEST investing vehicle ever, with bad returns but guaranteed. It does this EVERY time.

I like these videos.. but honestly my son doesn't get packs to keep closed for 30 yrs.. he opens everything and trades.. he doesn't want money, doesn't want to become rich off pokemon, he trades his 50-70 dollar cards for packs . He loves opening and pulling..
