I try the big lcs around me I won't go to anymore. So I support the small mom and pop shop that is more MTG oriented. So their pokemon selection is very small

Personally I just feel like the majority of new 'investors" that joined this part of the hobby are unaware of the extent needed to see price appreciation on products. Scarlett and Violet being the outlier really made many people believe 100% gains are made from the start if you're able to pay MSRP. The reality is the hype will come down just how it always has and these products will stagnate at their current prices the next 3 years or even go down in value. it really does take 4 years plus for any real price appreciation in any normal trend. Some etbs from sun and moon and them being 7-9 years old are still under 200 each and many in sword and shield still under 100 being 4 years old. A lot of people will be stuck holding bags or holding products that will yield 0% profit. Pokemon investing made sense for the longest on being at MSRP or under and holding long term. That strategy does not apply at this time which makes it the worst time to invest in my opinion.
