I’ve played through the game quite a few times since my childhood and after playing it on the Switch 2 and doing a 100% file last year, I realized that I beat the game with 50 deaths. It was so fun to play a childhood game in such high quality and in handheld mode.

So I wanted to challenge myself to get a deathless file and honestly it was not easy but it’s done!

I will admit that I failed the perfect run final star about 5 times but I just closed the software so it didn’t count. Technically it’s still a deathless file, not deathless run but still a personal accomplishment!

I understand that neither of them are super popular cards, but they were super affordable and they both sell pretty often (Entei PSA 9 sells once per day at pop 8300, hitmontop sells 1/per week with upwards trend, pop 290)

I have a few bigger slabs that are a few hundred and a few thousand dollars but curious to what other people think about these. The trend has generally been up but like I said, not super popular nines

Got them both for about $160 USD total and figured that was a bargain based on what I’ve seen

Entei will go in my PC because I love the card and would rather a 9 than raw for my collection. But hitmontop was more impulsive. I’m trying to see if my deal was reasonable

It seems like pretty good condition compared to those that sold on eBay. I’m not super familiar with coins but I got this a long time ago in a surprise box worth about $20.

I’m not sure if it’s counterfeit, don’t know how to tell, don’t know much about coins and would love more information

I ended up letting go some of my sealed that I bought at retail prices for some vending inventory. How’d I do?

> Sealed cost me about ~$100 USD, valued at $350. And the cards were valued at about $445 (about $355 at 80%)

It was the only white flare that I had but I decided to keep both of my prismatic figure collections for the long-term

*The white flare was part of a Sam’s Club collection for $40 where I opened the poster collection and wanted to sell this half of it

It also seems suspicious that it’s telling me to open comments for the full message.

I usually rip for my personal collection but over the last year I have been purchasing some sealed on the side. Currently, I am considering getting rid of my sealed for singles/slabs so that I have inventory to start vending with my friends later this year. Any thoughts?

At the very least I plan on keeping one ascended hero PC etb and the zard UPC since I like how they look and they are in acrylics for the personal collection rather than for investment purposes

Everything you see was purchased at retail price, including a pitch black pre-order that I didn’t include because a price correction. I got the entire Pokemon Center drop of two bundles, two stamped ETB’s, and a booster box but not sure I’d I want to keep them now based on where my priorities lie.

Any thoughts? Should I keep the chaos rising and one of my PBlack ETBs? Should I keep the booster box instead? Or liquidate it all to go in in vending costs and inventory?

I have been collecting on and off since my childhood but got back into it more heavily recently. Other than that, curious as to hobby assumptions (about 50% of collection showing here)
