I just used neo genesis as an example but other sets follow a similar trend. Maybe the ones that purchased 1st edition were more likely to take better care of the cards than those that bought/played with unlimited.

Obviously with base set this was not true

Just found this interesting/wanted to share

Picked up two of my grails this weekend. Saw the English copy last week at a card show and walked away from it. Thought about it every day for the next week and figured it must be gone by now. Stumbled upon a screaming deal on the Japanese one so I picked it up thinking I missed out on the English… well, my wife and I took a trip back to the shop where the English version had been tucked away under some other cards as if to be waiting for me to return so naturally, we had to get it. If it’s meant to be, it’ll be.

This cards been in my childhood binder for forever, any advice on how to clean the black specks off? I’ve tried micro fiber cloth to no avail. Or is it not worth in risk of damaging the card?

Hope you all had some good weekend pickups as well! Gimme a follow on IG @ Sportsandcollectibles Any support is appreciated!!

I have these cards currently sent to PSA for grading, and since the holographic pattern is a bit different from the standard ones, I am posting this just in case anyone has seen a similar holographic pattern. 

Sorry for the silly question. I thought they were, but just wanna be sure!

Looking for Topsun, Carddass, Base set, series II, Blaine’s, all promo. Basically anything ‘05 and earlier. Will maybe look at some others. Please post pics and prices. Or gimme a message on IG @ Sportsandcollectibles (will respond faster there)

Does anyone know if these are worth anything special ive had them almost my entire life.

Came in by mail today. Bringing back the nostalgia, sweet memories

Adding to my Kanto binder, think they’re a neat pair that don’t break the bank (too much)
