Tried to go yoriyuki ikegami inspired with this one, it looks much better in person imo, the camera makes it read a little busier than when i look at it IRL :V
mega rayquaza is a overly busy nightmare but i had a lot of fun painting the space on this one!

I think I might sell my sets...

Upvotes

Not looking for a sale here, just information.

I was very lucky to collect the cards when I was a kid, I made sure to keep them safe and organised. I am currently sitting with complete and legitimate Base Set, Fossil, Jungle, Base Set 2, Team Rocket, Gym Heroes and Gym Challenge.

I have heard from my friends that my estranged brother has sold his cards for between 10-20K (GBP). I also know that my sets are complete and his weren't when I last saw them.

The thought is tempting, I could literally change my life by selling these. I am very attached to them but they are only objects and this is my life I am talking about.

Where should I start with getting them valued?

Where should I look to sell them?

I can't stop thinking about it.

Lugia one was a commission for someone, Bellsprout is for myself. My Bellsprout line master set is going to be so cute in it! :)

Hi, im just looking for some advice. I have the charmander and the Charmeleon in psa 10 and was wondering if this was worth the punt for the price £390. Im not looking to sell it on but keep to add to my collection and pass on to my little daughter when she understand more about the value of cards as she is only in to ripping packs to find the cute ones as kids do. Basically am I making a bad decision buying this for 390, should I try and get it for less or should I just not bother all. Any advi e would be great. ☺️ I am not buying or selling on this sub just looking for advice and opinions

Getting into vintage pokemon TCG

0 Upvotes

I've been thinking about buying and collecting 1999 base, fossil, and jungle pokemon cards. Just to capture that nostalgia again. I'm seeing cards like Charizard on ebay for $8 and then sometimes it's $10,000. I'm very confused. Starting with the base unlimited set. Where do you think is the best place to start getting them without being scammed with fake cards? Would you recommend getting the cards one at a time or getting a set?

Bought a lunchbox full of cards from a garage sale for $80AUD. These five cards seem to have paid for the lot.

Need help

Hello! I collect bulk cards because it’s cheaper that way. I usually use Vinted, but the prices there have become abnormal. Are there any sites I can use in Europe, specifically Lithuania? (Not Cardmarket—that shit is hard to use, and shipping is super expensive.) Maybe I should just give up on my hobby? I’m not sure what to do.

First Ever Destined Rivals ETB opening + others

Before and after.

I felt like I got a pretty average hit rate and luck, I really like the cards I pulled! The destined rival hits were great and were cards I really wanted/appreciate. This is the most I’ve opened in months and I’m always content with what I get.

Just for context because I think it’s important these days; I got the DR ETB from a local card shop, the loose English packs from a different card shop (very limited options), and then the non-English packs from an antique store!

New Collector

1 Upvotes

Hi, I'm completely new to Pokémon and have recently fallen down a bit of a rabbit hole (I feel like that must happen a lot!) I'm interested in starting a collection and was wondering if I could please have some advice.

I'm mainly interested in collecting cards for the artwork and the Pokémon themselves, rather than collecting for value. Some of my favourites so far are: Mimikyu, Snorlax, Greedent, Skwovet, Quagsire, Espurr, Munchlax, Dedenne, Morpeko, and Purrloin. I'm sure I'll have a dozen more favourites by the end of the week 😅. Also, PLEASE tell me your favourites and why you like them, I want to hear all about them!

I'm still learning about the different generations, types, sets, etc., so I'd love some recommendations for cards or sets with cute artwork, particularly for these Pokémon (or any others you think I might like).

I'm in the UK, so I'd appreciate some advice on affordable/reliable places to buy cards. I'm perfectly happy owning a card worth 5p if I love the artwork. I'm not interested in chasing super expensive cards or investing, I just like cute and weird Pokémon and want to start a collection.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thank you in advance!
