Slept on cards
Post Body

So I've been debating whether or not to post this but finally decided I was going to because this sub needs a little action! Recently I have been working on putting together a display for first some first generation pokemon. Besides base set, which can get spendy, it was tough to find cards with similar enough art styles that I personally found appealing to go together in my pieces. When searching through cards, I found many cards from various sets that were not particularly expensive, but had very limited availability. Some had none in near mint condition on TCGPlayer. When I cross searched ebay, many of these cards were listed more expensively on ebay and still there was not many listings as well. I think these cards could possibly be worth looking into. All of these cards were well under $100 so easily obtainable for a casual collector. The fact that there is such limited availability leads me to believe that while not particularly sought after now, they may be in the future simply for what they are and the availability of cards in good condition. I'm not going to list any specific cards because honestly I sort of went down a rabbit hole and found an absolute ton of cards that were relatively cheap and not widely available, most from older sets. Everyone out there is chasing base set and charizards which leaves many cards in the dust. The thing with investing, it's always a gamble. Even more so in Pokemon. You never know what is going to be worth money in the future. That's why I'm not gonna tell you to go buy this card or that card. Just do a little research and you might come across some slept on hidden gems. For me, collecting what I like comes first. Passion before cash in.
