Dude, first off, love the calculated lack of "energy" that you put into when your talking about each thing, you're not doing the stupid hype thing that youtube promotes. You're not just saying the same thing as everyone but louder and that is unique. But hearing the word fortnight used as it is intended for the first time in years was a pleasure. You the man.
You guys been living under a rock? There are multiple apps that are more established and been doing the same thing as Shiny for ages. Shiny App is a knock off of Collectr App basically.
I need to download and spend a day going through it all 😅 I’ve kept all my receipts so I know what I paid for the product and it will be nice to see where everything is sitting
I think the fact that surging sparks got such attention is that now there are way more people in the game. theres also strong sirs to get and abismal pull rates. cool set overall
Best advice I can give is: There are times to be a collector, there are times to be an investor, and there are times to just sit on your money. Right now, I'm sitting between being a collector and sitting on my money. I've found some really good deals on older sets to keep me ripping packs and enjoying collecting. But if the deals aren't there, I'll wait until they are. Do Not Fomo, people. Great video, bud 👍🏻
I agree with almost every rating on this list. Minus one, stellar crown. I believe it’s a 7-7.5. It’s a fun set to open and the art is phenomenal. Just my take. Thanks Michael.
Hey Michael, love the vids! I also use the Shiny app but I cannot locate Sinnoh Stars Mini Tins cases. Anyway, I'm massive Paradox Rift fan, and prefer it over the many other sets in S&V, but hey, that's just me.
@ I agree with that 100% for the standard ETB’s, the only reason why I just picked two up is for selling to sealed collectors in the future, I think Astral is one of the worst of the PC ETB’s, but I think that the PC ones are still far less printed than the BB or ETB’s
As always I agree with you Oz but it feels like the trend with SV era is we got really great sets across the board with IRs but the lack of effort on SIRs brings it all down. I really love Paradox Rift and like you said with Paldea Evolved - it coulda been a banger with one bangin SIR!
i think paradox is a way better set than stellar crown. altaria groudon, roaring moon, goldengo and steelix. The cards are a way cooler. The only two cards that could compete are the bulbasaur and the squirtle. And In my opinion paradox rift it is not going to have another print maybe a little restock in the future. And stellar is going to have a repint 100%.
12:00 I agree with the 9.5 rating, simply because they didnt include masterball holos. The set would have been BROKEN if they did. Sitting on a few booster boxes of japanese 151, hoping to see that $200- 250 pricetag again!
Started My Pokemon journey 4 weeks ago with you Michael :) I bought case(-2) of of SS, had to crack some as a newbie..., and 4 twilight and 2 cases of prismatic As well as some MTG Collectors.Foundations .most pre-ordered and below retail Q. I pulled the Pika 238/191 and the melotic as well as a lot of others...I dont want to be a single collector...should I a) sell them and reinvest in Bitcoin b) keep them and watch them climb or c) burn them and decry the evil of Pokemon? So many questions incoming...and thanks for the format with pics as it teaches me the older sets :)
@@MRGandee already came to that conclusion...but had to rip first time and all. Good advice I fear. Next question is should I grade my cards..the good ones...to experience it..Thank you
@@MRGandee I am thankful for your time and assistence...Think I just want to experience it once..and then the crushing dissapointment of an 8 LUL. Sealed cases will be my jam at pre-order, and then the occasional booster box from the past..maybe? Thank you again Have a lovely week.
I started collecting Pokémon cards not long ago with Stellar Crown, and I think you are right. As much as I like it, there aren't maybe big cards in that set. You don't think Bulbasaur, Squirtle and possibly Lapras will be enough to make it worthwhile to invest in down the road?
It hurts me seeing how well Surging Sparks is doing. I knew it would but didn't have the disposable income to purchase any yet. Never had to fight the FOMO so hard!!
Thank you so much for this amazing video! Could you help me with something unrelated: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
Why would you open that? As popular as it is there really isn't many actual valuable cards in the set, like even the charizard is only worth $180, that's about $30 LESS than a sealed ETB! So there really is no point in opening it at all, it's like burning money!
Gotta feed the algorithm, but I am a very new investor (4 weeks) so the more I can get from a local Aussie source the better..Also, they are all different and current regarding pricing..It is crazy atm so good to see updated market stats.

Thanks heaps man!
Thank god you recommended the shiny app, before that I had been keeping track of my sealed products in a spreadsheet like an animal!
It's a fantastic app. It really streamlines the process
Haha I feel that! It’s a lifesaver for organization

Amazing video man! Love to see the graphics with the top cards and the price changes with your analysis. Keep it up! Watch every video

I actually filmed a video yesterday on this topic, it's coming out Saturday night 👌
Oh nice one. It'll be interesting to hear your take on it, bud 👍🏻

Totally agree, it's a fun set to open!
great video mate, agree with every rating to be fair!
I agree, the Bulk of my S&V sealed collection is surging sparks, paldean fates and 151!
Wuddup Oz! Enjoying the new content! Representing the Washington, DC area!
Appreciate the support mate!
This is a ripper video! Best yet 👏 Love your work
Cheers mate, appreciate the kind words!
Best card in Shrouded fable is that Kingdra EX Promo card, that card is Big time underrated!
Hey Michael, love the vids! I also use the Shiny app but I cannot locate Sinnoh Stars Mini Tins cases. Anyway, I'm massive Paradox Rift fan, and prefer it over the many other sets in S&V, but hey, that's just me.
Shiny App is brutal it's literally a knock off. Use Collectr.
Paradox is a nice set!
And thanks mate!
great video!! id love to see one on sealed products but on each set
How much do you guys wanna bet that the Pokémon center Astral Radiance ETB’s will shoot up once they finally go OOS?👀
I like astral radiance as a booster box. Not as an etb. They will do ok but not really great. So middle of the road. Just my thoughts.
@ I agree with that 100% for the standard ETB’s, the only reason why I just picked two up is for selling to sealed collectors in the future, I think Astral is one of the worst of the PC ETB’s, but I think that the PC ones are still far less printed than the BB or ETB’s
@@Zoroarkcollector I wish you the best. Happy holidays.
@@LudwigPig You too man!🎄
Ummmmmm this is what happens like 99.9% of the time so... I'll bet u whatever your worth you are right

Great take! …S&V shaping up really nice, should be an exciting 2025👍
Totally agree! Going to be a massive 2025!

Yep! If it had the mew and mewtwo and masterballs it would be an 11/10 😅

Sell your singles and stop opening product
@@MRGandee already came to that conclusion...but had to rip first time and all. Good advice I fear. Next question is should I grade my cards..the good ones...to experience it..Thank you
@ it’s up to you. Some people buy a ton of the same card that has a high margin between raw value and PSA 10 value and then sell them

How tf you have a mini pic of Moonbreon haha
Prismatic going to be above 9 as well (referencing JP)

If it had a Laura's SIR, it would have crushed it!
If you had a chance to get a cosmic eclipse at the same price as an evolving skies, which would you chose?
It hurts me seeing how well Surging Sparks is doing. I knew it would but didn't have the disposable income to purchase any yet. Never had to fight the FOMO so hard!!
you only need 1 kidney😅
Haha well I hope it gets reprinted for your sake so you can grab some! 👌
@@magnificcenTCG ha so true!!
Would you recommend buying 151 even at twice the retail price ?
Which would you think is a better investment for small collector like me. Silver tempest booster box or fusion strike pokemon center etb?
I'd go the booster box!
Hey Michael I know prismatic is not out yet but what score would you give it? Im thinking 10/10 😂
Just waiting on pull rates and masterball holo averages and then we can rate it! 😎
Thanks for another great video
Shower buddy 😂😂
Appreciate you tuning in!
151 and SV08 are 10/10 sets.
Remember, your cards are only worth their price tag once you sell them. Until someone pays you cash, you’re just collecting cardboard.
And cash is just paper until someone gives you a product for it.
@Flamingo85725 The difference being I can’t buy gas, groceries or earn interest in a bank account with a pikachu vmax.
Thanks for the info 🥃
4 SV base booster boxes at $87 USD each is all the exposure i need to SV base
buy sv01 - sv03 last chance
Agree SV Base to the moon!
I can't see them being printed again!
Thank you so much for this amazing video! Could you help me with something unrelated: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
surging sparks will out do every single other set
Surging > 151 for investing.
Why? Booster boxes.
Let’s gooo
Let's Gooo indeed
5.5 is wayyy too charitable for Shrouded Fable imo, it's by far the worst set in SV
Even if obsidian is doing fine its the most trash set ever for me. And paldea is for me 7,5/10 or 8/10
Sweet
Poketokens 🎉
I'm not holding strong I keep opening 151 that I try to keep it last like 2 weeks then I'm like F it time to rip
Why would you open that? As popular as it is there really isn't many actual valuable cards in the set, like even the charizard is only worth $180, that's about $30 LESS than a sealed ETB! So there really is no point in opening it at all, it's like burning money!
I bought 2 ripped them and got it out of my system..now I will buy a case and sit :) BUT I get it....mmm gamba
@@ViolentRainbow no 100% I just have a problem 😅
@@ViolentRainbowwhat ETB prices are you talking about? 151 ETBs are like $100. That’s $80 less than your charizard pricing
Some people like to open packs ..
Marnie!
That's her!
Are you just telling me what i want to hear?
Haha of course 😅
Marnie! lol
Too many Videos, content is getting repetetive imo
