Trying to get back into collecting

I used to collect as a young kid around 2015-16 and I recently sold some cards to a buddy since they’ve been sitting in my closet all these years. Turns out a lot of my cards were fake sadly lol. Still had a few good gems to sell but kept the bulk to possibly sell in the later years. Anyways this kinda sparked my want to get back into collecting and was just looking for advice. Never was super knowledgeable other than collecting and liking cards that looked cool lol. Any advice on people to watch or things to look into and research to get more knowledge and maybe fill me in on what collections people are buying and such. Any advice is appreciated!

How do I avoid getting low balled selling at a convention?

I bought these all new in the late 90s, looking to sell since I don’t look at them or use them. I have many more than this and worried I’ll get perceived as a newb and low balled.
Any tips besides researching prices online for ungraded medium high condition?

The Slowpoke/bro/king master set!

I’m not quite there yet but I have the vast majority of my expensive ones. Slowbro has always been my favorite. Yes there’s a fan made one in there too ;) enjoy ! I try to reach them “in the wild” without having to look them up - are there some you can think of that I’m missing ? Cheers.

$46 for a $100k+ Skyridge Charizard PSA 10??

For context, this card was the third and final set in Wizards of the Coast's e-Card era, and the last Pokémon set WOTC would ever print before Nintendo took over global distribution.

By then, the Pokémon craze that swept 1999–2001 had cooled, and Wizards knew the license was ending, so they printed conservatively. That decision, made over two decades ago, is the reason so few of these cards exist today: Skyridge has the smallest surviving population of any WOTC main set.

I saw Boxed GG has dropped it as a card to win in their packs so wanted to check if people have had a legit experience on the site first.

Is this an authentic plush?

Hello everyone! I am cleaning my grandma’s belongings after she passed. Can anyone tell me if this is an authentic pikachu plush? I tried researching but couldn’t find this specific plush. I believe she purchased it in Japan or Taiwan. I read that plush faces from the 90s may look a little wonky.

Information I gathered: 1997, banpresto

This is a jumbo chubby plush, looks like it’s supposed to be 1:1

Here's a "rare" promo card

I hate these so much. From a etb that "costs close to 100 dollars".

So too anyone that has these promos laying around, they're rare

u/jessehopp — 6 days ago

30th anniversary cards look like trash.

Idk if it’s a hot take or not, but the reveal aint it. These look horrible.

Espeon is only decent one out of the reveals and even then it’s so mediocre.

Just my take 🤷

Why is Pokemon 25th Anniversary singles so cheap. Am I missing something here……

Like I’m struggling to understand with the 30th around these are so cheap. I really don’t understand previous years it would have been up by now.

u/More-Feature-5908 — 9 days ago

Found this card at a show yesterday

Idk if its worth the 100$

Edit: I’m new to the hobby, please do not comment about “then why did u get it?” My friend pointed out to me about it AFTER i left and wanted to double check where I could. I didnt pay for it I traded my cards for it that I had.. should have just walked away… which I will do for now on and price my trade cards prior. Lesson was learned

Score!! At my local target

I had a surprise surgery recently. Today was my follow-up appointment with my doctor, and my husband, wanting to lift my spirits, surprised me with some Pokémon cards. I was so happy that he managed to find anything at all, so let’s see what we discover. Fingers crossed we get some good hits!

u/Significant_Fig_7355 — 7 days ago

Hello.

What's this worth unopened? I am a dad and just found this. I forgot that I bought my son it along time ago. It's been in my trunk for a long time. Does it appreciate in money every year or how's it working? It won't let me add a picture. It's the super premium collection of the scarlet and violet box set.
