Thr entire landscape is out of control. It's not sustainable actually. Casual fans will fall away being unable to find product. I expect it to die down at some point but who knows when that will be. It's sort of a perfect storm where PC started printing less and then the demand suddenly skyrocketed again. Sets should be available more than a few months after release.
Another great snapshot in time, Danny. Thank you for all the hard research and easy to understand graphics. In the USA, historically in March, April, & May we get a bump in sales from adults receiving tax returns. It quiets down in the summer. Then around the gift giving holiday season we get another bump. Then the cycle will repeat. As these cards age, and hype goes down, fan favorites will rise to the top. If you plan your buying in the “off season” there are wonderful deals to be found online and in person.
I was starting to collect the alt arts and trainer galleries while they were low this summer. I hope they don't go too high before they are out of reach
its Christmas season guys, thats the reason. Just look at Scarlet & Violet base set cards. The set I thought would be easy to complete now became more expensive.
I remembered when Gengar Vmax was $80 and moonbreon was slightly below $200. Back then Pokemon in general was in a decline and sadly I didn't pick up them up and some other alt art. Now it's too expensive and may never complete my swsh alt art. I'm only missing 8 alt art and it will cost me $2400+ to get all of em. 😅
Just wait till 2027/28, guarantee there will be a massive dip then, after the 30th anniversary has came and gone. Then probably pick back up towards 2030 and 31 with the 35th anniversary.
That’s sick, currently completing 151 in Japanese and English with my mom. Not start Tera till after I complete both and holy shit is that more work than I thought lol
As a parent whos kid’s favorite Pokémon is eevee and that collects Pokémon cards the state of Pokémon cards is disappointing. My local stores are cleaned out of everything except shrouded fable etbs. I use to be able to tell my daughter to get a booster or blister pack of whatever we went to the store but this is ridiculous. We just want to enjoy the hobbie for what it is and maybe pull a cool card.
Galarian slowking is an amazing artwork. Beautiful cardnin person. When I started collecting again I bought a bunch of sleeved chilling reign from pokemon center and didn't realize how lucky I was to pull an alt arts out of such a low number of packs. Chilling reign has the best artworks in SWSH imo
If you're not subscribed to Danny... WHAT'RE YOU DOING?!?! The man needs a haircut!!! I miss chasing S&S alts... still so many I'm missing. I tried, too. I gave all sets with alts a fair shake and a good chunk of my money. You're welcome, TPCI! Haha
Just wait till Sandaconda, Honchkrow, and Skuntank alt art skyrocket
lol I choose Honchrow V out of the three, but you totally left out Conkeldurr V.
Literally the only ones I’ve pulled
Might be waiting a long time for that…although the Honchkrow is admittedly cool.
I think aerodactyl alternate was undervalued at 80-90 I think its easily 100-110

I’m glad I bought a bgs 9.5 moonbreon when it was a 600 dollar.

Yes, it is. Versus the March to May “we got our tax return” season. ;)
Happy hunting!
Loving your uploads. I actually load into RUclips when I get your notifications 😅

Still cheaper than buying product to open .

Or $~140 in packs with a little luck!
Almost there!! 150k lets gooo
Yes they are alt prices off the roof what is going on!!???
tcg pcoket whales
Supply drying, soon Pokémon will stop printing Sword and Shield products that’s when the price will really skyrocket.
I can’t believe the mew v was at $11 at one point! Such a beautiful cards. It seems like everything is climbing in SWSH as well as SV.
Don't hide those luscious locks from me
A little surprised you’re not at >1M, since you aren’t overhyping or ripping people off. Appreciate what you do!
I don’t envy you trying to get the master set for Prismatic Evolutions for that giveaway.
No kidding.
I look forward to your videos. Thanks (as always) for all the good info!

Happy Holidays, Danny.
I like the pull rates now!😊
you gotta dig this man's hair... channel is pretty good too :D
Let's gooo new video drop!
I really like this set.
Should call it Cup 'N Handlebreon now!
You have one of the best most informative channels ever. Always great content! 😁 And fun to watch too!
0:13 Holey Buckets... sounds like they leak a lot 🫠
Congrats on the success bro

I love getting these in sgc 10 slabs helps my wallet and the centering is always on point
Title should have been “blasting off again” instead!
Damn im happy i bought Moonbaby at that low price lmfao gotta buy up the galarian slowking before that goes post 100$

Please be good to this man algorithm
Math with Danny ❤
Moonbunny is insane.
God bless! Merry Christmas!!!
Dude, could you please speak about Prismatic Evolution PC ETB on TCGplayer! Are they really going for $400 a box? is this manipulation? is this real?
Bring back the intro
bro is the biggest umbreon vmax hater of all time been doing it since it was $400 somehow manages to say it is cooling down from $1404 to $1393, crazy
What a useless comment .
Gotta love alt arts tho 🤟

So…will he get a haircut when he makes 150K? Perhaps a haircut like that other famous Danny, Kaye?
That why you our goated you ain’t afraid to put in the work
Let's send the Moonbreon to Mars! xD
It's already on Jupiter. The price it's at for a modern set is unheard of.
Go Bucks!
Long hair is cool!
But getting 200k subscribers might be slightly cooler... more cool? Either way, hit that sub button!
Thanks
