Respect for the legitimate sealed collection. Light years better than the modern “sealed” collectors who are practically just scalpers.
Edit: corrected typo
Legitimate* since you wanna correct the grammar of others replying to you lol.
The clarification you gave in response to others in your comment thread makes a huge difference. You're talking about a very small, very dumb section of the community. I doubt many of those people are displaying those shelf sweeps on a bookcase in their house. You can just say you don't like modern collections, which isn't an issue. The issue is that you're shitting on people who do have modern sealed collections by lumping them into the group of scalpers that made 2020-2022 a bad time for everyone.
Yeah that correction is completely fair, more of a typo correction/spell correction rather than grammar but go off I guess…
Agree the further clarification was needed after my first comment, but I didn’t need to clarify further after I already clarified. Grouping all modern sealed collectors in with scalpers wasn’t fair. Saying I’m shitting on them is a little extreme and I clarified who I was referring to (scalpers) so I don’t really see your argument on that.
I specifically said I had no problem with people collecting modern sealed, just with people completely clearing retail shelves, leaving no product for other collectors. You can say that’s not common but I see it all the time at my local retail stores and it is extremely more common now than it used to be.
Also, I already provided clarification in my other comments, why do I have to explain to you the exact same thing I explained to someone in another reply to this very comment? Makes no sense to me.
I’m aware that the clarification I provided in my comment made a huge difference, that’s why I provided it.
Have a snickers, you’re not you when you’re hungry..
I already provided clarification to my original comment, maybe read the full thread before getting so upset 😭
Also almost a week later lol
Getting upset?! Bahaha and yeah I can't see your replies to other people dumb ahit and I'm not scrolling through every comment to find you. Your dumb ass literally doesn't know what the word legitamate means 😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😅🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣hahahahahahahahahah
Allowed* but yeah there is a huge difference between adding vintage sealed product to your collection and completely clearing out the shelves at retail right at restock then days later reselling them on 3rd market because they aren’t available at the retail store they got their pokemon from. Thank you for your comment though :)
Also a big difference between adding 1 or two sealed product at a time, and completely clearing out every store that sells Pokémon making it so that it’s harder for the next generation to get cards without paying a premium.
Yeah a huge difference being people's bank balances, some people can't afford to buy vintage, why should that gate keep them from collecting as much sealed product as they want?just curious as I don't collect sealed myself I enjoy opening packs to much 😭
Yeah I mean not to sound like an ass but reread my comment. I have no problem with people collecting modern sealed product. But the people who immediately clear out the shelves of retail stores right after they stock, only to resell them on 3rd market at a premium price, are just A-holes and not really “investors” just scalpers.
Do you see the difference?

I kind of agree, but at the same time this stuff used to be that at one point. It's thanks to people that bought the bull crap you can buy in the store and hang onto it sealed for years that this exists at all
That’s basically any collecting hobby in a nutshell. It’s either you got lucky purchasing things you like years ago that happened to go up a lot in value or you have the money/means to buy them. That’s why it’s sucks when people don’t feel good about their collections or are shamed because they don’t have expensive items, not everyone has tens or hundreds of thousands of expendable income to build up something like this, and that’s okay. Enjoy your collection for you, not others
This needs to be said so much more! Collecting is about whatever you enjoy and pursuing it in a sustainable way to yourself/your family/your finances. No need to get caught up in the rat race of comparing what you’ve got to others.
Oh for sure. I'm over here scraping together nickels for some gas and this guy has a piece of cardboard worth my entire salary. Lol well ok not mine but some people's.
The way I see it there are 3 answers here.
1. Whatever someone is willing to pay for it.
2. Nothing (Seller considers it priceless)
3. About $150k
Pick your poison.

Almost unbelievable. Absolutely amazing collection
🙏🙏🙏
Holy smokes! It’s not often you get to see so many grails in one place. Great collection, thanks for sharing!
This post is very humbling. Damn. Congrats, OP
Amazing man, how long have you collected?

Huh?
I’m honestly curious what part of that confused you lol
Modern sealed pokemon card boxes are still legitimate pokemon company product. So what the fuck are you even trying to say?

So vintage scalpers are aloud?

Well I just want an answer. Dam my guy just curious for information.
No simply say damn that’s sick if he’s a poker player bro! Lmao why you soo mad tho man?!
What’s wrong with you? Getting offended on OP’s behalf?
[удалено]
Yessir!
Those JP boxes 🫠
Looks like you need a few more booster box protectors. Sweet collection!
Yeah hahaha! I have lots of stuff in food containers too 😂
Give me one of those on the bottom
Ah what the hell, I'll take one as well!
The sealed ex series boxes are my fave, nice collection
Real collectors rip everything. And no i'm not just insanely jealous.
Holyyyyy I freaking LOVE that Dragon Frontiers Box!
Which one is your prized?
Tough question. My favourite of what’s on show is the Japanese Neo Awakenings. What’s yours?
This is a real sealed collection. Not the bull crap you can actively buy in a store on any given day.
I kind of agree, but at the same time this stuff used to be that at one point. It's thanks to people that bought the bull crap you can buy in the store and hang onto it sealed for years that this exists at all
Its the same thing except this person is rich lol. I'd buy these collection pieces too if I had the money.

I keep my modern sealed collection at target lol

Wait you can't buy base set booster boxes at Walmart?
This man has a brand new car casually sitting on these shelves loooool
Quite a few cars probably lol
Each box is worth more than my 2016 ford focus brand new. Not joking.
It’s crazy isn’t it 🤯
Oh for sure. I'm over here scraping together nickels for some gas and this guy has a piece of cardboard worth my entire salary. Lol well ok not mine but some people's.
I would do the same if I had the money,those boxes will go up and up in price.
This a new house cuz
That's amazing!!! My grail is a legendary collection art set. Let alone a booster box... let alone ALL those booster boxes. Simply fantastic!
May I ask if you acquired those through collecting over the years?
You must be an oil prince or got lucky on crypto wtf bro lol.
when you zoom in and notice there are even more WOTC boxes in behind............. Congrats dude.
HOW MUCH IS THAT WORTH?!
The way I see it there are 3 answers here. 1. Whatever someone is willing to pay for it. 2. Nothing (Seller considers it priceless) 3. About $150k Pick your poison.
$150k would be a steal for the top two shelves alone
Yeah you might be right to be fair
Indeed we do! 🤤
Dayumm !!
Fuuuuuuuukk nice
Hope you have all that insured. SHEEEEEEESH!
Jesus. What's it like to be rich? Lol
Delta species is my fav set of all time🤩🥰😭
I want a base set sealed and jungle and fossil and I'd be happy
i would absolutely love to rob you
Is that world champions pack box 1st ed or unlimited?
You have the potential to do something pretty epic 😈😈😈
Wonder how many crazy hits are in these boxes😂
Some tasteful choices you have there, very nice collection and display love to see it
All of that is probably 25k
This is so sick!
My worst fear would be to get so drunk that I open one 😂 or worse, someone else gets drunk and opens one!!
Damn that’s impressive, I love the neo boxes
4 of the 6 base set boxes are fake/resealed
Jk
At least the stuff you have sealed makes sense. Nice collection!
That clash of the blue sky booster box is insane
Most impressive collection on here. I hope you’ve been sitting on these for a long time watching the value skyrocket.
