good podcast as always. Good insights on some pitfalls to avoid during a wild time.. And I gotta agree with you on the Pikachu SIR.. Latias is my favorite card in the set, but there's a strong argument for Milotic as well
Everyone is a reseller these days. That's the problem. I'm sure you saw the Costco videos. It's insane. Sneakers aren't making money anymore so they move to Pokemon cards 😅
19:24 this right here. I was able to get PC ETB cases on eBay up to about two months ago for like 240, and I already had a case from PC a while back. Also, I was new to the hobby last year and didn't really get the 151 hype or understand the PC ETB info. Are prices way too high this point to pick up a case for about
Thanks for watching! I personally would not invest in 151 Pc ETBs for $900 or more. I would save that money for future PC etbs as an example. It would be about $240 per case with more %growth potential. But if you want it for your personal collection then I would consider pulling the trigger.
I think anything close to MSRP is fair right now. $140 is the current market price for paldea evolved and I don’t think there’s going to be another reprint coming. If surging sparks get a reprint then I think the price will definitely drop closer to MSRP ($161) or even down in the $140-150s. But that requires patience. If you want one to rip for fun over the holiday then I would say $175 is actually not bad -Considering current Surging Booster boxes are going for $210 usd.
I just got an email today that my case of the Prismatic ETB got cancelled and refunded due to a “lower allocation”but it’s stupid cuz I know the reason why; I secured it for a low price. That’s why they cancelled mine 🤦♂️
Yeah. I believe we will see mass cancellations on these Pre-orders from many other small local/online shops going forward. Very unfortunate. But that is why we don’t recommend placing pre orders with online shops without a good reputation. Try big box retailers in the future to avoid this type of situation. Sorry about your terrible experience with that shop.
That’s a possibility because of the entire eeveelution line up SIRs and masterball reverses. The only glaring difference is that prismatic evolution is a specialty set. No booster boxes. So we shall see!
If the English (which I don’t think they will) won’t follow the Japanese set in terms of pull rates then it will definitely be exceeding better than ES. Only thing that’s holding currently for ES is due to a huge Nostalgic opinions.
I dont think so. Each have their own uniqueness for the card set. BUT ES still have much more choice then pramatic. booster box advantage , ALT ART. more card choice for collector . but Pramatic is just eevee which is their main.
@@Uncrowned_King_Benzwhy wouldn’t English be similar pull rates ? There are also no Pokémon full arts and no illustration rares so the sir cards are really the only hits. That would seem like they would lower the difficulty of pulls.
Thanks for watching! There is a lot of speculation when it comes to Pokemon investments. No one really knows what’s going to happen until it happens. But we do our best to talk about these topics backed by our combined experiences in the hobby, and past data points/patterns from previous set releases for the viewers. ❤
Good info

As an option l trader , I am a big believer in not fighting the trend . There is clear demand, but the hype is scary .

People are saying the same thing about investors though

Catching up now 👋🏻
Hope you got something valuable out of it. Thanks for checking us out!
@54:50 Fusion Sike!
Is $175/bb for surging sparks overpaying? And is $141/bb for paladea evolved overpaying? Thank u!

My prediction is that Prismatic as a whole will exceed ES
That’s a possibility because of the entire eeveelution line up SIRs and masterball reverses. The only glaring difference is that prismatic evolution is a specialty set. No booster boxes. So we shall see!
All depends on pull rates in the end. And if English is anything like Japanese, or anything like crown zenith, SIRs will be 1/9 packs.
If the English (which I don’t think they will) won’t follow the Japanese set in terms of pull rates then it will definitely be exceeding better than ES. Only thing that’s holding currently for ES is due to a huge Nostalgic opinions.

Man if they print prismatic like they did crown zenith those people paying 110 an etb right now are gonna be crying . So crazy.
Love all those predictions but none of the evidence to back it up.
