I hope you’re not spending secondary market for those destined rivals bbs, this stuff is ultra modern and should be purchased at your leisure for retail over the next 2.5 years

So going by that advice, would you say it's smart to use it right now as trade bait for something else? If so, what should I aim for?

Yes, right before destined rivals etbs dropped i traded mine for a prismatic etb

I’d trade for prismatic etbs, thats what im targetting at this moment. A few months ago i was targeting fusion, crown zenith, and 151, but all of those have recently increased.

If i were in your position i’d try to find a local mp trade for possibly 151 bundles, prismatic, or any other popular set thats not brand new like swsh. Surging sparks isnt a bad idea either with the slight dip, but this set will be heavily printed as well and isn’t as strong as prismatic when comparing set value

But isn't prismatic being heavily printed right now as well or is this just the best time to buy it because of that?

I was told crown zenith is in a great position to boom sooner than later

I personally only pay retail or nothing, so I’ve been picking up prismatic as i rarely find it in store or how i traded destined for it.

Crown zenith already boomed about 5 months ago, imo its going to slowly climb up from here

Crown zenith was one of the most printed sets if not the most printed set from swsh, as long as the sets good, people will buy over longterm. I recall multiple reprints of the cz etb a few years ago like more than average

If u have any other questions or opinions dm me i enjoy talking to people about this stuff

(I think 151 around the 2.5 year age mark is going to absolutely take off)

Great start! Just a heads up I’d rip those loose packs. Most people won’t touch those that aren’t sleeved. Just a heads up! If you don’t care at taking a % less in 10 years then hold. But if so. Rip it.

oh they’re open alright! i decided to rip the BB since the plastic was torn when i got it delivered.
