I’m curious to know your thoughts on the Dragon Ball Super card game. The holy grail of this game is currently valued around $1500-$2000 as a PSA (secret rare son Goku awakened power). This card came from a one print set and was very powerful. At this point, it’s not as used, but it’s become the status symbol of the game

Love it Scott. Go big or go home. You can't go wrong on any 1st ed base......there is a ton of security knowing that even very young kids these days play Pokemon. Not only will the baton be "passed" from our generation to theirs, but also people our age are still buying and it's increasing! Going to be a bright future for many many years to come.

I have several currently but don't want to leave them out in the open where the case can pick up dust, etc. Just curious on what you'd recommend. Thanks.

I sold many first edition base holos for like $30-$50...hurts my soul

Am i right, that all cards of the base set, except for Machamp, that are 1st edition are also shadowless? I only see 1st edition cards, that have no shadow and all with shadow are always unlimited. But on the other hand i am sure, that one time, i have seen an english Charizards 1st edition with a shadow. Was that a big missprint? And is a 1st edition Charizard with a shadow the most valuable card?

Scott do you think you publically sharing your strategy and position on 1st edition base will cause a spike on these cards due to others copying you? It happens a lot these days in MTG, someone will mention an old card or product on a podcast or video and people rush to buy it out and spike the price.

Yeah I'm still seeing 1st Edition Fossil and Rocket cards going fairly cheap and I can't think why! They're not that common still, are they? Every now and again you might also see someone putting base cards up on eBay that go pretty cheap, and they're 1st Edition, I think it's just being in the right place at the right time!

They sold really cheap some years ago and I regret doing it, so I know how it feels to have opportunity slip right through my hands. hell, the Growlithe and Clefairy Doll came back to me twice for 20 bucks just to make me feel more stupid(I sold them), but hey, I guess its something you gotta live it.
