I get so excited for you to release these vids haha. Great to finally have some quality, engaging conversation within the hobby after so many years. It’s all about that genuine interest. Like you say it’s the genuine interest and love of it that drives this hobby. For me it’s about building a collection for my 10 year old self, who used to dream of owning all these WOTC, and Nintendo EX era cards but naturally couldn’t afford shit back in school haha. Feels great to finally be making that little kids dream a reality! Keep up the great work Scott, and thanks for all you’ve done for the hobby 😊

The other day I dug up my old "collection" consisting of worthless "OG" cards in bad shape and a few packs I bought out of nostalgia 10 and 5 years ago. The most valuable card is a Holon's castform reverse holo which is an uncommon from Ex Holon Phantoms that's sold recently for about 20 bucks on Ebay NM, two are for sale for 50 bucks rn. No one cares about Pokémon in Europe so not like I could sell it even if I wanted, just wondering... What is the market for such cards? I don't think it's played anymore - although it was competitive at its time it seems - since unlike Magic, the old cards are terrible and the 2005 era cards are still pretty bad. No Modern or Legacy formats. And it's not especially rare either. As an expert after watching a few of yours videos and a ton of Rudy's Magic videos it looks like a low volume item no one cares about that would sell for ten bucks if a bunch of them suddenly hit Ebay.

An interesting thought to consider/expand on... Pokemon investments in terms of exchange rate. E.g. a 10,000usd collection when the Canadian Dollar is at 1.34 to the USD, vs when the USD drops to 1.15 for example.

Pokémon is an collectors game. Only the high end like trophy cards can be seen as investments. But the newer cards and even a lot of the WOTC stuff is not even an investment. I'm gonna make an video about it.

@golDroger88

The end goal of investing is to make money, otherwise you would call it a hobby, not investing. So that means you're acting specifically with that intent in mind, enjoying and being passionate about the process is a parallel, unrelated thing. The reason why I bought 4 Lilianas, 4 Caverns and 4 Hierarchs when UMA came out was because I speculated they were at an alltime low and I wanted the cards as a HOBBY, the reason why I also bought a sealed box of UMA was purely speculative and an INVESTMENT to hopefully pay for the cost of the hobby part over time, in the next 5 years or whatever, depending on the market and my economic needs.

Neither one of those auctions were legitimate. The reserve charizard is not a 10. The seller explicitly states it is damaged in the description, while simultaneously not sharing photos of the damage. The other auction was an outright scam. It included images from a previous legitimate auction, which was detailed on E4.

Your opinion of crypto sounds mad ignorant. Amazon’s stock fell nearly 95% when the dot com bubble burst. Crypto is not about “a universal currency”, it’s about blockchain and the future of technology. You should do some research on the companies and technology backing many crypto assets.
