Scarlet & Violet is Performing Extremely Well

[@rocklee7634]

Paradox Rift will go way up when it goes out of print and KZbinrs hype it - for valid reasons, IR Groudon, SIR Roaring Moon, and a ton of other awesome artwork

[@spencerharper6182]

Had the Groudon been a SIR and not just an IR this set would have already went up a lot more in price

[@spencerharper6182]

That altaria is gorgeous also

[@rocklee7634]

@@spencerharper6182 my mistake listing G as an SIR. But yeah, agreed. There are a lot of Pokemon that this young generation really like. it will take some time to appreciate. I think if I didn’t play the game I’d appreciate it less.

People said I was stupid for buying 5 cases of every set of scarlet and violet (minus 01 and 03) but now who’s laughing hehehe 😈

[@rocklee7634]

@@jacobbhendersonn3529 no set will be worth less in the future. 100% chance of a positive ROI. If I could afford to I’d do the same thing. Right now I’m sitting on a min of 3 boxes per set, max a case of each.

I got all of my Paldea Evolved booster boxes for a dollar cost average of $85 and sold them all at $129.99 plus shipping for a realized gain of around $33 a box after all fees. I am sure some people made $5 margins and still sold but I made sure my gains were worth selling all of my boxes. I also got Obsidian flames booster boxes for a dollar cost average of about $80 and sold them for $115 plus shipping so realized only around $20 a box.

[@spamtonto]

Are you moving large amounts?

[@rell660]

PSA 10 151 Charizard sells for more than Greninja by $100 average. The king has reclaimed his thrown!!! And I have some of them for $315-330!!!

[@Gsclark4]

PSA 10 Geninja is $580, PSA 10 Charizard is $450.

[@spamtonto]

Not even the second best Charizard in SV either lol

In the US you are very lucky that there is much more transparency regarding reprints/restocks. The investing route towards pokemon products are a lot more clearer and because of the demand and a vast variety of options to move out of positions via consignment services etc seem like a no brainer. In the UK restocks/reprint information is basically non existant whilst also having SWSH boxes all over the place barely above SV box prices, it is a lot harder of a market to navigate and determine which are better purchases. For example we can still buy astral radiance, silver tempest and brilliant stars for £125-£130 a box. Whilst SV boxes like twlight and paldea are still in the £100-£110 mark. Either we have too much supply that isnt meeting demand, or there just simply are not enough people that enjoy pokemon here. This observation is also based on the sheer amount of SWSH still available on the PC website. You really do have it good in the US for pokemon investing and its very clear too see, that it is worthshile doing with whatever sets you "invest" in. I say with envy to a certain extent but i laugh when i see negativity from US viewers. You honestly do not realise how easy you have it when it comes to pokemon "investing" 😅

Exacly! Europe is completely different and absolutely lagging behind USA in cardgames overall. Also it looks like in Europe there is not as many impulsive buyers, from my experience many times you are going to sell your cards/sealed products to another person who speculates on it. Europe is big, but somehow small and with its own rules. It is definitely harder to predict anything in card games here, because the sentiment is completely different. Good luck buddy.

👍🏼

When the "restock" of paldea evolved happened I got 5 boxes for $120 very nice

[@playafly316]

Nice, where did you find those boxes?

[@jims7773]

@playafly316 they were on a website called the hydropump pokemon shop. They sold out now. But they still have pre order surging sparks bb for 105 up

[@spamtonto]

​@@playafly316He didn't.

[@monkey39128]

How come you don't have any Paldea Evolved?

[@dragonballfan420]

I only have 3 more to get and I'll have a sealed box of all sv Era cards. I have over 6k worth of singles, some vintage first editions, e-reader cards, all that. Holo zard, not shadowless or 1st edition on that one, but a 1st edition dark blastoise holo tho.

[@SnoMan1818]

Scarlet and violet have a few issues: -the games were atrocious -terrestrialization/gem crowns looks suuuuper bad The positives -151 -paldea magikarp -temporal forces

[@kylewarren5268]

Ebay has 151 cheaper then $90. I was just looking last night. Some are still goin in the 70s even and a few lower

[@SCP-001DatabaseAdministrator]

Japanese not English for that low pricy

[@SnoMan1818]

I have my etb listed for $120 lol

[@kylewarren5268]

Twilight can also tank if people decide another set has better and more chase cards. So its the top... For now.
