Which store?

@@notabot5733 it is called Imaginaire in the province of Quebec.

Thanks fam. I appreciate you!

Ditto Vmax!

Samee. I like it as soon as it pops up

Depending on their distro they may have gotten them already. All 4 of my distros auto allocated. One of them gave out numbers as early as end of July. I will say I still have 1 that hasn’t even given me Evolving Skies Allocations yet. 🤣

It’s garunteed money unlike gambling with time all of these thing will increase in price celebrations etbs are already worth double what I bought them for you just have to know what will increase in price the most over time

@@goten3965 exactly! Try explaining that to my girlfriend 😂 she thinks it’s a total waste of money, I told her to look at the 1st edition charizards and she changed her mind 💰 💴 💵 plus it’s something that gives me a piece of my childhood back, it’s a win win in my book 📕!

@@bmw328i8 yes it’s nostalgic fun and retains its value. the holy triangle for a hobby/collection people who don’t know don’t know until you show them lol. it’s the biggest media franchise in the history of the world and it will prolly never die and there is something about it that just straight up makes me happy and I Know it’s the same for a lot of other people 😁

@@goten3965 you took the words right out of my mouth! 💯 ✅

Well I'm no expert but here is my 2 cents. I would buy the cheapest sealed product possible and just sit on it. Unless you got brick and mortar distribution won't work with you. If you buy a box for say $95 ( battle styles) You must sell it online for atleast $115 to even break even after shipping and fees. So if your not sitting on ALOT of capital , just buy the cheapest box and wait 5 years and you should be at a profit based on previous boxes. As far as short term gains , your would need to the the lucky golden child Alot of KZfaqrs actually make all their money from KZfaq and not actually selling the cards , or use the KZfaq money to offset the cost or buying cards. You CAN make money selling cards but it's a volume thing that requires ALOT of capital , think .10 profit thousands of times , but I assure you without a Huge inventory you will NOT make thousands of sales. Selling singles is not a good strategy as there is ALOT of potential downside risk , atleast if you buy a 95$ box how much lower CAN it go? Whereas 10-$9 cards could easily go to .25 each and you lose all your money.

Hmm I don't hear it

Lmao! It definitely has happened in several videos

Good for you. Hope you live in the same area as I do.

you do realize if people go insane and you have low prices..you just wont have any product after 5 mins..but if your talking about the guys who still sell em high as hell when you got other people selling em at decent prices..thants thats good. Be sure to make your money though

This is a very loaded question and the honest answer is that you need to work with what is best for you and the most efficient use of Your time. Currently, we turn our bulk immediately to a larger hobby store that has the manpower to handle listing them in lots and tcgplayer. When things were slower, we would list the staples on tcgplayer, but since their are only 2 of us, we couldn’t handle the load that was coming in. We have had a lot of luck in the past with bulk lots, but again, that depends on how much bulk you are taking in to how much free time you have to pack up all the orders. You can flip it to a marketing company or an overseas company as well, but we have never done this and it requires a huge amount of bulk (not sure the exact amount) If you’re just starting to absorb bulk I would recommend selling some on tcgplayer and doing some lots on eBay to get your feet wet and see what you can handle.

@@DannyPhantump Cool thanks for answering! love the content - you are my favorite poketuber, twicebakedjake is a close second though!

Question: is it possible for me to go to my LGs, and try through them making a order of over $6000 in chilling reign booster boxes from their distributor? I would pay for the order and the taxes of the sold (as if they were sold) And keep all the product and profit of not buying at MSRP. IS THIS POSSIBLE?

Idk I’m not the right person to ask

The product isn’t released until the end of October so many distributors won’t have them advertised on a website yet. Pokemon Center has not taken preorders yet so they won’t have it listed. Also, most distributors will force allocate this item so it will never be order-able. Thus never hitting their website.

@@DannyPhantump So for the Stores & online retailers that have them for sale on Ebay, TCGPlayer, etc. For $250+ are they just listing it in anticipation that they will receive Charizard UPC by force allocation? Also when do you think Charizard UPC will be available for Pre-Order or just to be able to order it at all on Pokemon Center?

@Diablo of Crypto they are definitely one of the stores that gouge when they can... but I don’t think they ever were quite that high for Shining Fates. It was Black Knight Games. I understand needing to charge a bit more because they don’t have the volume of some of the larger shops, but $199 was a bit excessive. 😂

@Diablo of Crypto I’ve been to Altas. I found them through buying singles on eBay, and some of the best prices kept coming up Atlas. My local favourite is Dark Fox in Hamilton.

I live 30 minutes from waterloo and can confirm that Atlas is one of the best around. No etb's there over $100 when first released. They are also a good place to trade in your bulk and have a wide variety of non sports products as well as some sports products as well.

@@buffalobill9793 yeah I like Atlas. I’m not local to them so don’t make it out often, but they are a great place to order singles from.

Those 3 are heros anyway we would be overpopulated if you did.

@@notabot5733 your saying the planet isn't over populated? I assure you we are way past the ideal population for the planet already. The planet is in severe trouble sooner than you think as the global population continues to explode putting ever more strain on already stressed resources.

Well the title is ”The prices u should expect”, idk if the title changed over time or nah, but sayin he ”wasted ur time” is kinda crazy ngl

I'm starting my own business now working on it. Gonna sell off my collection and what sealed product I do have. Once all that's sold I'll apply for distributor. Think it'll work? Should be next year sometime.

Right lol. So hard to adjust to those times ! So easy to stay up

We all start somewhere

Lol! I guess Danny has a different distributor than you do then.

@@buffalobill9793 ya I am in Canada, so almost certainly. But if we talk about prices, they cut you off

lol im a actual store and cant even buy so the online guys are gonna be a long long time

Best advice would be to branch out into less popular games. Pokémon is flooded with sellers at all levels. Makes all of this very competitive which is why margins are so slim
