Fusion Strike, in my opinion, is the 2nd best set behind Evolving Skies. I understand the majority thinking Lost Origin... but my money is on Fusion Strike.
I wish I had of been around in the days of SWSH booster boxes at retail. I joined the hobby because of 151 so most of these boxes from that era were already sold out on the US/Can Pokemon Centre and expensive on the secondary market. I mostly have SV booster boxes in my collection/inventory but I sure do wish I had a lot more of these lying around. Imagine buying this at $90 USD only 2 years ago.
I’m still focusing on sleeved FS packs at retail until they’re sold out. I think the US sold out around 10 days after their boxes sold out. I believe 36 FS sleeved packs will always be worth more than a BS booster box, much better set IMO. There isn’t much of a price difference between 36 sleeved loose packs and a sealed box, for example a sealed evolving skies box works out at around £19.50 a pack, a sleeved booster is around £18. Similar ratio on other sets. Probably a better investment buying FS sleeved packs right now then moving onto BS boxes. Either way both a great investment. If you haven’t got any BS boxes then well worth adding a couple in the meantime. I already got 15 back in May hence not fussed if BS boxes did sell out while investing in sleeved FS packs. I just think from an investment POV FS sleeved packs will give better returns being sold as bundles of 36 than a BS box. Fusion boxes in the US are close to 300$ whereas Brilliant boxes are 190$ so much less demand in comparison. You’d probably be looking at around 250$ in the US on 36 FS sleeved packs VS 1 brilliant star box at 190 right now. It’s just a case of waiting until sleeved packs sell out over here then FS will start to proper take off. The fact sleeved packs are available at retail is holding the box price back. They should be around £240 looking at the US market, just our supply is causing a lag.
@@Fruitforums good stuff thanks will grab couple hundred sleeved then I assume 3 packs and those are a similar scenario I’m not sure if there are any left tho , I remember contemplating buying es sleeve packs at £7 and I skipped them 😭
I was considering the exact same thing today, honestly I’d say right now. Chaos cards have them at £42.50 (order limit 4) which seems to be the cheapest. Most retailers seem to be out of stock and on eBay they’re starting to sell for £44+, one at almost £50 including postage. Within a month I doubt they’ll be any under £50. Chaos cards also have/had hidden potential tins in the Black Friday sale at £12.95 which contain 2 LO and 2 FS. Limited to 3 of each tin so 9 in total if they’re still in stock.
Fusion Strike is much more eye appealing than Lost Origin IMO. From the box its self to the cards. Fusion Strike just POPS. Just like Evo Skies POPS. Both the Moonbreon and Gengar have fantastic eye appeal. IMO only of course. I also have my eye out for Chilling Reign deals for the same reasons.
Anyone who says they always knew fusion strike was going to be the 2nd best set was not…I REPEAT YOU WERE NOT IN THE HOBBY WHEN IT CAME OUT!!!!!! Nobody liked fusion strike for the first 2 years
@@ValmanwayX 10 years for 1.5k? Look at evolutions. Cards hardly worth anything, but around 1200$ can. You have to draw from all avaliable information. Just not arbitrarily predict a number. Comparatively it should be worth way more based on prices. I would be very comfortable on assuming this. Doesn't hurt to take a guess, not trying to he mean, but evolutions isn't even 10 years old. I can see 10 years it being 2500 to 3000.

Fusion strike also has the espeon which makes it the evolving skies for espeon fans. That’s not even considering Mew and Gengar which are popular
Always was going to happen the moment it went OOS in the UK. Will be number 2 for SWSH

Currently lost origin etbs are below msrp whereas bb is 240+ in uk at what point should I look to get etbs

Just grabbed 4 LO ETBS after sitting on the fence, apparently 3 left in stock now. Discount code BOX3DM33PL3S gives 5% off making them even cheaper
Looks like I took to long they’re oos now so I’m just gonna focus on fs sleeved

I bought 11 bbs at 90$ea and at the time no one wanted it like CR I just bought them because they were cheap i am Happy now though.
Recently found your videos, I watch a lot of poke-investing style content so enjoying your views as well. Dropped a sub!
this was the price I was looking for the other day but couldn't find it for whatever reason. Ended up buying the last couple. Thanks!
I’m happy you got some!
Wow man thanks for promoting my eBay account I really appreciate it 😉🤥
I’m buying fusion strike now before it explodes
Make a vid on Chilling Reign
How much chilling reign do you got.?
@jasone42683 I have a case of BB, wish I had more.
@@WhatiSay1 nice! Do you sell when it doubles? Or are you long term?
@@jasone42683 long long term, 5-10 years.
🥶
glad I bought 2 cases a year ago for 650 per case. Wish I had bought more, though ^^
Are you gonna sell when they double?
Good video but it’s not surprising at all
Will be $450 to $525 in a year
What is it in 2035? Id like your prediction. That should be harder to predict, than a year by year basis.
I would say between 1k and 1.5k
@@ValmanwayX 10 years for 1.5k? Look at evolutions. Cards hardly worth anything, but around 1200$ can.
