I know I’ve ahead said this privately but need to say it again congrats brother! Your kids are going to grow to share your passion in this hobby and I’m excited to see that over the years 🫶
You are a true friend Jake, beyond all the stuff in the hobby. I am grateful for the people in my life. 🤌🏻 As for Asher and Aspen, whatever they love or have passions for I’m excited about regardless!! ❤️
Congrats on the new baby! My wife and I are expecting our next child too! Same situation as you, have a girl now and baby boy coming soon. Glad to see you back, but by all means prioritize the family and your mental health.
Thank you!! Congrats to you and yours as well fam! It’s a beautiful thing to start a family but even more lucky to have one of each for balance. Doesn’t get better than that!! Now we just have to juggle it all 😂❤️
@ yes sir, I work a 40 hr a week job with overtime and run a business on the side. I know the struggle of work, family and free time/hobbies. We’ve got this!
Thank you so much, I appreciate the kind words. Even today I felt guilty making a video but life must go on. I have to learn to find a balance again and this time will be much harder with 2 kids! 😂❤️
Lol, you’re right about Gold stars….they are getting very pricey….I’m proud of you…you’re almost done completing your GS collection in Psa9…that was an amazing accomplishment. Keep it up Orion and cheers to your Newborn 🍻
Wholeheartedly agree. Or take some PT off to just enjoy the holiday with people you love most. Truly is a nostalgic time of the year. Maybe that is also why Pokemon is peaking right now. 🔥
When I read the title for this video I knew you were having another baby :)) and yes the latias card is freaking beautiful!! Also I need the Milotic card as well o_O
I don't get it either lol.... Honestly the moonbreon will eventually tank down hard in price. The population a way too high for it to retain it's current value. After the hype collectors are going to be paying attention to the pop report. Also, congratulations on expanding your family!
Thank you!! 🙏🏼 Well I’m starting to maybe believe this is just the new norm for modern alts ? I’m in the process of uploading my next vid ranting about singles specifically. Some of the cards might be popular enough to withstand market downturn. Or maybe they are all being bought up by uneducated collectors who believe this is the last chance to buy at this price. It’s any good alt art right now they are all booming and I’m starting to feel the regret of not buying more of them when I could. 😂
@orionsires it's just the current hype, I saw another video apparently a Goku from the dragon ball TCG at its hype it sold for an upwards of $15k, absolutely absurd. But now the most recent sale was around $900. Eventually another card will attract the hype and everyone is going to lose interest. Hype dies, so will the market value. Because the PSA pop won't carry it. BGS and CGC Pristines would probably hold the value because of the lower pop report. I'd say invest in CGC/BGS Pristines long term for modern lol. Lower pop report longer longevity. Although I'm just predicting 😂
Japanese is incredible but at this time staying clear of it. I think there’s gonna be a big Japanese boom again at some point though. Only a matter of time 🤌🏻😎
If they didn’t care about Pokemon why would they jump in? To make money? If they can make money then it means that it is a viable investment and that they’re helping "True collectors/fans" collection value, why would a true collector/fan be mad about their life long massive collection increasing in value?
@marcburch2633 because a true collector cares about the product no matter the price. If the market crashed/dropped all theses new flippers and investors would shit bricks getting stuck with all the products they bought up trying to make money on. The frustrating part to fans is the availability and super inflated prices that have to be paid to do something they grew up enjoying.
@marcburch2633 How are they helping "True Fans and collectors" by forcing them to pay triple the prices and cut down on them being able to rip packs and fill binders?
Trust me a lot of people felt like I was one of those people just coming and going for the hype. It will pass and who remains is going to continue being the fan base and prices for alot of things will correct but for now it is somewhat upsetting seeing prices move so drastically. It’s great for investing sure but if you’re just trying to have fun everyone is making that harder by going all in on it. This is the new normal in the hobby. Everyone is piling on to whatever the next hottest thing is. Greninja ex was SO hype, well nobody cares now because there’s a pika ex Tera.. and soon eeveelutions Tera, it’s a constant pull of capital from collectors and I don’t even know how people can afford this hobby at this point. I run a full time business and make decent money and even for me it’s a turn off the prices of new modern chase cards. I can’t justify it so I stick with vintage. But eventually I will buy modern stuff and focus on it and I’m terrified of what the prices will be of some of these over printed high population alts/sirs… it’s crazy but anyways that’s for another video 😂❤️😎
Congrats on your baby!🎉
Appreciate it 🙏🏼🙌🏻❤️
Congrats dude, glad its all going great for you! Life is good!
Life is good, and thank you man we are so grateful ❤️

This is the perfect time in the hobby to take profits and wait for good entry points.
Wholeheartedly agree. Or take some PT off to just enjoy the holiday with people you love most. Truly is a nostalgic time of the year. Maybe that is also why Pokemon is peaking right now. 🔥
That is awesome! Congrats 🎉🎉
Having both a boy and a girl is definitely a blessing ❤
Best of both worlds thanks homie ❤️🙏🏼

When I read the title for this video I knew you were having another baby :)) and yes the latias card is freaking beautiful!! Also I need the Milotic card as well o_O
Haha yeah you’re not wrong! Love that you called it 🤣
I don't get it either lol....

You should look at old Japanese exclusive promos, a lot of them are cheaper than modern chase cards.
Japanese is incredible but at this time staying clear of it. I think there’s gonna be a big Japanese boom again at some point though. Only a matter of time 🤌🏻😎
@orionsires Japanese and Japanese exclusive art are two completely different things.
Congratulations on the baby but….uh where’s the bling bling at?🤔🤨
LMAO! Ok I tucked the chains. Guilty 😂
There are so many people jumping into the hobby that can care less about Pokemon. It's killing the collectors and true fans.
If they didn’t care about Pokemon why would they jump in? To make money? If they can make money then it means that it is a viable investment and that they’re helping "True collectors/fans" collection value, why would a true collector/fan be mad about their life long massive collection increasing in value?

It’s great for investing sure but if you’re just trying to have fun everyone is making that harder by going all in on it. This is the new normal in the hobby.

Greninja ex was SO hype, well nobody cares now because there’s a pika ex Tera.. and soon eeveelutions Tera, it’s a constant pull of capital from collectors and I don’t even know how people can afford this hobby at this point. I run a full time business and make decent money and even for me it’s a turn off the prices of new modern chase cards. I can’t justify it so I stick with vintage. But eventually I will buy modern stuff and focus on it and I’m terrified of what the prices will be of some of these over printed high population alts/sirs… it’s crazy but anyways that’s for another video 😂❤️😎
