OT—Pokemon cards—

[tkd]

1999 1st edition base set holos are worth a ton in high grade. 1999 1st edition Jungle and Fossil holos in high grade also hold some strong value.
It will be interesting to see the future of pokemon cards and the future pokemon collecting habits of todays youth. Will they care about graded cards? Will condition matter? It will be interesting to see.

My kid is serious about Pokemon. I introduced him to Pokemon cards at age 5 hoping it would be a gateway to other cards. All I can say is that Pokemon and Magic the Gathering have a bright future. The 30 somethings and younger are now sparking the graded market for the desired cards in these issues.

I do believe they will keep pace with moderns cards of today. Which is hotter than vintage depending on who you ask.

"SMPratte" is a Pokemon card celebrity of sorts. He does video blogs on YouTube and also provides Pokemon card investment advice as a service.
It's the real deal folks.

I started picking up Gem Mint 10 Pokemon cards for my son and storing them away for him.
PSA also treats them seriously as they realize it's an international market of collectors.
Everything from Vintage baseball to modern basketball is a niche market and we should all celebrate the collecting culture!
