Whatever is happening it doesnt matter as much as its not slow and natural growth over time just a volatile jump upwards

I somewhat agree but who is going to dump all of these alt arts the demand is still strong they aren’t rare but they are scarce. Let sealed will be opened to supply the market lots of copies tucked away in collections you will always be able to find the for sale as there are so many printed but even when people “leave” the hobby they don’t instantly sell everything
@CatBack94
@CatBack94 23 дня назад
@Adam-Adamson I really like that you mention scarcity vs rarity! But I do have to counter that by saying there is no shortage of these available on the market (swsh alt in perticular) making it hard for me to agree with that. Although I should have specified in my comment that they were what I was mainly talking about and not sealed product

Every single graph looks so similar. The price drops, the slow increases, and the fast jumps . Whether the market is being manipulated or not it seems like everyone is agreeing with the prices they’re going up to. Theyre were for sure under valued at the time they dropped, and now that the sealed product is harder to find it’s understandable that the prices of the big cards would go up above their original high prices
@phillips.collectibles
@phillips.collectibles 22 дня назад
Yes exactly! Sealed is actually being quite steady

It’s just a bull market for the most desirable and popular era of all time in Pokemon. I think maybe the big 6 have been pumped, but the overall market has just grown extremely desirable and people don’t wanna miss the boom like most did with sun and moon’s boom. It’s just supply and demand and the nature of a cyclical market. I’m excited when we hit the next dip and SV’s “evolving skies” drops, I’m gonna absolutely load up on product when no one is buying
@King-he2de
@King-he2de 23 дня назад
Everyone’s thinking the same thing bud, that’s y it won’t drop. Maybe a few dollars overtime but definitely not a huge margin. Everyone wants to go in when the price drops and that will automatically increase the price as demand increases

Hey man. Me again. Is there anywhere that has more historical pricing on singles from BEFORE the boom? Is there anywhere we can see if there are any yearly trends? All i can ever find is 1yr max (more or less) and that doesnt give us a zoomed out perspective on year over year trends. I read an interesting comment in a thread somewhere where a collector since forever made the connection between a yearly price hike of singles with the American Yearly Tax Refund season. Thoughts?

I did an experiment where I bought and sold all of a common turtwig from tcg player (around $110), then relisted them at 3x market value. That change in price (and almost all major third party players use tcg players API) rippled across all of eBay, mobile collector apps, toll and toad and even other turtwigs and increased the value of those turtwigs around 200% everywhere. So yes, anyone with any desire can manipulate the big API providers and inflate/deflate card/item values...🤘if you do this slowly over time you can trigger people's bot buys and exponentially grow an item's value.

It's definitely fomo from supply going out of stock on PC so the secondary market is increasing. With that people are looking to the chase cards out of those sets. With the Umbreon going up everyone is hoping on to the other Eveelutions as well.

I am so curious to see what the market cap of sword and shield ends up as before some of that weary transfer goes into scarlet and violet: it’ll be a tell tale sign to see where scarlet and violet ends up I also like the change in approach to your discussion, with being a little more candid than totally scripted.

Just a thought. If you assume that the price is being manipulated due to a buyout. Then you need to assume the entity’s participating in said buy out had the foresight to soak up SWSH product prior, in anticipation of capitalising on the current record prices. To stage a buy out now when prices are at record highs is not a good long term plan. The moonbreon for example is seeing unprecedented growth. Along with other PSA 10 alts and sealed BBs. Something I’ve learned the hard way, and advice any good investor would give: buy at the dips and sell at the peaks. I do believe SWSH and SM have seen good natural growth and the cause for its recent spike may be that the community is waking up to that at once. Or Because SV has been underwhelming (besides 151). It will probably slow down in the coming months but like all Pokemon product, continue a steady incline long term. Also for a buyout to work you need to control a significant share of the market. Pokémon product is mass produced and prone to reprints which would make this difficult.
@phillips.collectibles
@phillips.collectibles 22 дня назад
Excellent points. I’m much more on the side that buyout is more of a sensationalist headline. I am more in the camp of that S&S sets are gone.

I can give you an example of the greatest market manipulation ever…. And a hopefully you do a video based specifically on this topic…. Pokémon gets ridiculous, free advertisement and crazy exposure and multiple hyped up products by everybody on the Internet right now, including RU-vid with all these unboxing and opening and collecting channels that everyone has…. Your Channel.. poke rev and so many others, boost sales and increase so much popularity and create almost hysteria for people to want to buy and collect these cards even people that know nothing about it are buying tons and tons of cars based on what they’re constantly being exposed to on RU-vid. It’s pure market manipulation….. it is the greatest form of silent advertisement that they’re getting free day by day minute by minute to basically have no wind in sight of when this boom will ever stop….. this is why Pokémon Center sins so much promotional new released items to Poki rev and everybody else because it is the best exposure and freest form of advertisement to sell their product and manipulate it the way that they need. It’s really genius if you think about it……
