    Im going to weather the storm. I really think ss is strong enough to chew up and spit out a reprint with little to no affect to its price. Paldea evolved was stagnant for a little bit but never really went down when a reprint came. In 3-5 years surging could look a lot like evolving skies imo.

    I did the same. Kept one case and sold the rest to my game store. Bought at 91 a box on early pre orders and sold them for 288 each (store credit). Figured I'll have plenty of capital for future pre orders since that's where I buy most of my product.

  • @Dilemma009
    @Dilemma009 16 дней назад +2

    I'm in SS for 104 a box so i have no reason to sell because I'd look at it as a long term hold quality box
    If I had a couple of cases then ya I'd cover my cost basis and hold the rest.

    PE will only be a bad move if it somehow out paces the demand

    • @ItsMrKO
      @ItsMrKO 16 дней назад

      Specialties are a great hold if the set is good is the key disclaimer. Shrouded and shining fates has shown us how a bad special set will perform. Although shrouded is still early, it still won't be in the stratosphere of 151 and crown. Nonetheless I agree with you. It's crazy sometime just last year gamestop had crown etb for like $39, and I've had amazing luck with the sea and sky boxes.

    With the craze right now most if not all “reprints” or “restocks” will likely be small compared to what we’ve seen in the past. If you got in early and cheap I’d hold….a small dip if anything is my guess. The lgs’s are likely not going to sell less than MSRP and it will go right back up

    I bought two Prismatic (non-Pokemon Centre) ETB's and will be getting them in a couple of weeks on release.... and I will sell them as soon as they arrive. Onthe other side of the coin, I did manage to get a Stellar Crown and Twilight Masquerade Pokemon Centre ETB (Australia Pokemon Centre site)... but these are for my collection. I would like to buy a Prismatic Pokemon Centre ETB, but will only buy through Pokemon Centre and no-where else.

  • @lou5164
    @lou5164 17 дней назад

    I think a reprint would only knock it to 180-200. My average is $105 and I dont wanna raise it. Tho I am tempted to sell some so I can go heavier into Rocket. I would not want to have to reinvest most of the funds back into surging plus rocket

    Why do people hate scalpers? Investors keep product out of the hands of the market for YEARS then sell at a really high price. Scalpers keep the product for short term and flip it for minimal gains. So really the investor is withholding more product for longer and selling it higher than the scalper. It's all silly. BTW I invest, scalp and collect. Haters gonna hate

    Are you a scalper or an investor? And what's the difference? I hate the term Scalper (not saying you've said it, but other youtubers say it). I buy and sell for profit.. like every other business person, whether short or long term. I support short term investing, and selling products for others to enjoy.

      @PokeProfit lol I don't use a Go Pro. They are garbage. My dive camera has an all aluminum housing, and is ocean safe.. like all my other equipment.. Now had you said I was buying up all the snorkels and fins as an investment, driving the price out of control so investors and scalpers are the only ones able to enjoy the hobby you might have had something.. but I don't do that either.
      Not trying to be a jerk. Just don't want this hobby to get ruined like my gaming hobby got thrashed during the graphics card and consol scalping over the last few years.

    • @PokeProfit
      @PokeProfit  17 дней назад +3

      I was being facetious. I guess that went over your head though, kinda just like all the parallels that could have been drawn.
      For example, one diver, wearing a snorkel, wet suit, and flippers, all seeping microplastics into the ocean, who is invading the natural environment of fish, isn’t going to do much harm. Just like how one guy, contributing towards a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a percentage point of Pokémon’s total revenue is doing nothing negative towards the hobby.
      More importantly, I don’t really care what people do in their spare time and with their hard-earned money.
