Great video Jake, I used to find it very difficult to hold back on purchasing cards I want, but after finding sniping deals I’ve found it very rewarding to land a great card way under market.

I would love to see a recap of what you have total and the total value compared to spending in the next video. I think it would also be cool to grade a card with a cgc or cheaper grading company.
@AlbertoJMarcano2 жыл бұрын
Entering the hobby, I spent so much money buying packs, ETBs, collection boxes etc and had very little to show for it. I've now grown into buying and bidding graded cards I want. I save loads of money and get what I want without messing about.

These videos are such an inspiration while starting up my collection again. When I was a kid I had a binder full of holos and while being forced to move around my step grandparents gave it away while I was in the middle of moving, it was at least $1000 of cards especially since they were almost all within the first 5 years of pokemon. I'm going to start a budget collection just like this now that I have a little more money.

@JohnC9392-02 жыл бұрын
Thanks Jake for another budget investment video. 👍 You can still complete your base set collection, including Charizard, and still be within your 100.00 budget per month. On your next month, keep your 100.00 allotment aside and wait for the following month to purchase your Charizard card. You will have 200.00 available funds and may have extra to get another base set card. This is what I do when buying stocks and mutual funds.

I do enjoy the series. I don’t always agree with some of your decisions (like blowing half your budget on one card). I like seeing what kinds of deals you can find. I just think for a new or budget collector starting from scratch, I probably wouldn’t recommend spending so much on one card. Especially considering the price of that Sylveon will most likely continue to go down as more ES are reprinted. I’d be curious to see what other cards you could have gotten for that $46.

Man those were some nice pick ups. I finally found some stuff at walmart they had the tins with slowbro and mew in them. Picked up two from the vivid voltage set I got a gold Hero's Medal which is pretty cool I think to snag one out of a tin. I also noticed they had xy booster packs of crimson invasion in them. Are those worth trying to keep the boosters sealed and as a an artwork set if I can pick up the other two packs?
@tgafire872 жыл бұрын
With $100 I can buy the raw/graded cards I actually want. Ripping packs is fun. BUT it’s a total gamble and unless you can buy a mountain of them it’s not going to get you the cards you want.
