Sealed collection in Jan 2024: 1 Charizard UPC. Sealed collection in Dec 2024: 27 items, including 17 booster boxes, 2 UPC's, 6 ETB's (4 PC). I've learned so much this past year. Can't wait to follow you into 2025 Oz!
Here's what I've been contemplating: -Wish I bought more Evolving Skies in 2023 because it easily went up in 2024. Even at the current prices are loose/sleeved/booster boxes worth getting into. I know they'll go up, but will it see the same gains(percentage wise) as other sets in the same time? -Looking at booster boxes like Stellar Crown as some cards are seeing increase in value, assuming cheap boxes now might be a decent flip/hold sooner than later -Waiting on surging sparks reprint to get more SS boxes at MSRP, hopefully -Are fusion strike and lost origin sleeved packs worth getting into at the current prices. Will we see a $15 price per pack at the end of 2025? Everything is going up so fast right now, especially for SWSH sets, would it be smarter to get more of that while it's cheapest vs more SV sets? I have a ton of prismatic evolutions, even acquired pokemon center ETBs at lower "scalper" prices and I know the next couple of sets after could be promising. But as far as diving into something completely I'm still thinking i need to focus on SWSH while they're still decently priced.
I've decided I'm not going to go around and chase inventory that isn't there or pay ridiculous prices. I'll grab some singles that I can grade and make some extra money on and consolidate some of my collection for higher dollar items
My plan for 2025 is set. I just hope team rocket is a booster boxes. I’m waiting to see if surging sparks will reach msrp after a reprint but I would buy some. I also made my first sale on eBay so I’m continuing to grow that.
All I'm doing is buying a case of pc etbs whenever they come out and msrp 151. Everything else is way overpriced, plus I won't be buying a BB case of a set I don't care about (all of S&V for example) but I will be down bad for the Rocket's/Black & White set.
As a collector of collection boxes, anything from XY era was printed much less than boxes are now and hoarded even less than that. You won't get the same type of returns with modern era boxes except maybe the original Eeveelution boxes from 2 years ago.
I want to display my products in my living room but I'm afraid the cards will get bent because I always hear you should store sealed products in dark and cool places. The tempature in my living room changes quite a bit sometimes. What do you think?
Great stuff Oz! Deciding what content I consume is a big one I just realized and you definitely are in the small group of investing RUclips I’ll keep in 2025. Wanna have a set gameplan and ignore the chaotic stressful noise otherwise haha! Cheers!
Thanks for the breakdown! 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). Could you explain how to move them to Binance?
Always love your videos. Question, if you can answer please…Can you tell me where you get your acrylic hard cases to put your booster boxes in to keep them safe.
In my opinion, anything that's bulky and difficult to store and protect ie. most collection boxes, apart from the UPC's, is a no go for me as an investment. ETB's, Booster Boxes, 3-pack Blisters (if it has a banger promo), Booster Bundle Displays and single packs in that extra cardboard if it's a sought after set.
Michael looks like the type of guy who looks at another Michael and just says "Nice mate"
That’s me…

I let my emotion say “don’t buy surging sparks it’s not appealing to me” classic bad investment tactic 😅
3:39 1991 here, and I'm an absolute wizard on the BBQ. Lol
Great video, always a good watch.
Not only did I go out with some good Pokemon Card advice, I also got some good laugh out of this video 😂
Great video to watch before I go to bed!! Love the channel PokeOz!!

Im a big fan of collection boxes and tins, look at anything from x y era collection box or tin, worth hundreds and more
As a collector of collection boxes, anything from XY era was printed much less than boxes are now and hoarded even less than that. You won't get the same type of returns with modern era boxes except maybe the original Eeveelution boxes from 2 years ago.
@JohnDoe-ld8nr I disagree just wait 10 years I guarantee you sword shield or even current era 10 years after out of print will make great returns
@ If that is your mind set that you think modern won’t hold value and increase in the next 5-10 years you will fail in this hobby
@@JohnDoe-ld8nrmodern will destroy xy era in the same time frame. Value wise.
My only concern is the liquidity of tins and collection boxs long term. I'd buy any xy booster at 80% but I wouldn't buy tins or collection boxs
Amazing gift with those acrylic cases
Good Content, thank you
Thanks for the update 🥃
Enjoyed the golf references. Big fan of the game. I horribly execute the game tho lol
Thanks Michael for the information. Very useful.
Great video man! Always love looking at the big picture when it comes to investing!
I reverse engineered a few holes in my 20s as well.
i think investing in Celebrations would be a good plan for 2025 before the 30th anniversary i can see it going crazy in 2026
What about that new team rocket set? It should be better than 151 right?
🙋♂️ started in S&S era 🥳🥳
Good Video

my goal is to have 4 booster boxes per set of scarlet and violet. Plus some pc ETB of the special sets
hey brehv do you think alt arts will do well in future from sword and shield
Sound advice my friend. Thx again ✌

Is there any way to see the price of a product throughout its life that goes further than 1 year?
So well spoken and informative Michael thank ya , keep doing what you’re doing ❤
I really want more 151 but can’t find any 😢

Golf vlog plz
Show me your brokerage account P&L.
“Investing is essentially making profit on your money”…. Is football essentially just the Lombardi trophy?
Football isnt just about a trophy, players are motivated by their salary (money). I would say sealed pokemon collectors are motivated by money too.
Ur Veins tell ur Disciplined NO lamelo haha
I started yesterday N i HATE POKO)

That's where I disagree with you mate ETB's are a better buy than booster boxes. ETB's have a better pull rate than booster boxes.
Doesn’t make it a better purchase

Is cutting your hair in your investing plan for 2025?
You want a lock to cherish, don’t you?
