Hey everyone, As you might have noticed it's been quiet in the community for the past few weeks. I had to put my plans for new content and other cool stuff I had planned on hold cause of health issues. I won't bore you with all the details, but I had a worrying diagnosis just before Christmas... which has luckily turned out to be false! Either way, I'm still recovering a bit but rest assured this community is far from over! Plans for 2024: - Lots of high-value video content in the classroom about Pokemon investing, covering the basics and more advanced stuff. - Prices such as sealed products for the most active members based on the leaderboard. - Collaborations with online stores and PSA grading middleman services, so we can get more cards graded for better prices. - Hangout/chill streams for community members - Fun product discussions, new members, and new people to meet! I'm looking forward to 2024 with you guys, expect more content soon!

Shiny Treasure ex Booster Boxes released about 2 weeks ago and ever since then the price is plummeting. 👉 Cardmarket: Shiny Treasure ex Booster Box 🇯🇵 Japanese Booster boxes are going for as low as €79,50 I wouldn't be surprised to see if it falls to €60 per box like Vstar Climax did back in the day. Have you purchased Shiny Treasure ex yet? If not, what price should a box go for, for you to get tempted to invest in a couple of boxes? Or do you think this set isn't investible? Maybe there will be too much supply for the level of interest down the line and your money is better spent elsewhere?

A new Pikachu promo called 'Taipei's Pikachu' is being released soon in Taiwan to celebrate the new Pokémon Center in Taipei. The card isn't on Cardmarket yet, but should be soon enough and will be a cool pickup for sure! I will update this post as soon as I can find it on CM. Update: It's on Cardmarket now Taipei's Pikachu (SV-P 057) 'Taipei's Pikachu' promo card will be given out starting December 8 (Friday) at Pokémon Center Taipei and Shin Kong Mitsukoshi Taipei Xinyi New World. I think the art on this card is really cool, what do you guys think? Cool pickup? Pikachu promos can do really well long term, especially with a cool stamp and unique art like this one!

I have this leafeon alt art from evolving skies, and I'm not sure whether I should send it to PSA to get graded as I'm already sending in quite some cards and I want to try to get as many 10's as possible. What do you guys think of the centering on the back side? At first sight it looks good, but if you look closely you can see it's printed slightly tilted. The top right/bottom right corners are lower. I know PSA gives us a 90/10 backside centering margin for a PSA 10. But is this card within those margins? The fact that it's tilted confuses me 😆

Time for the 6th round of Team Red vs. Blue. Team Blue - 1x Japan Post Stamp Box (including promos and stamps) - won the previous round and kicked out the Eeveelotion premium collection boxes. Now, can the Japanese Post Stamp Box go for a winning streak and beat this Shining Pokemon as well? 1. Check out the attached image. 2. Vote below. 3.
