A or B Challenge Day 3: Meowth VS Meowth
Nihil Zero Meowth is currently $88 because it’s brand new, while the Chinese Exclusive Meowth is around $50 and has been out longer. If both cards were the EXACT SAME PRICE, purely based on the artwork alone, which one would you choose? Comment your choice and WHY in the comments below, and don't forget to vote!

Im a sucker for ANY card with a moon. Definitely the Chinese card!
Have you ANALYZED your collection?
In my experience collecting and seeing others collections I’ve started analyzing my collection in comparison to see how it compares. 1. My collection isn’t as diversed as others. Mainly Prismatic with dashes of Surging, Destined, 151, and Mega Evo sets. 2. Singles/slabs from multiple sets but nothing of substantial value. Highest slab is Captain Pikachu PSA 10 from Gem Pack 1 around $450. 3. Ease of Liquidity- I have a startup drug dealer type of collection. I have tons of mini tins, posters, lower values SIRs & IRs. It would take me a lot longer to sell my collection piece by piece, but my price per item is more open to collectors and hobbyists. I’d say I’m a specialty collector. a lot of one thing a little of other things. Budget friendly, you can spend from $50-$500 with me per item. You’re not here to buy in bulk. More of a Macy’s rather than Nordstrom or Bloomingdale’s. Just food for thought, when you’re collecting be intentional about what you’re buying. Eventually you will be in position to sell. Think ahead so you can set yourself up for success when that time comes.

..."It would take me a lot longer to sell my collection piece by piece, but my price per item is more open to collectors and hobbyists"... If you sell at a buylist price, you are not taking a loss, but, in fact, buying time. Selling at 80-95% of spot will yield you faster futures. You are gaining time, which coupled with velocity, are the two most import things. The more time you have, the more options you give yourself. Think of it this way, a dollar that moves five times will produce a bigger payoff than a trapped five dollar bill. Don't think in terms of...how much money can I make off of this...think more like...how fast will this product produce something else. The money is a byproduct. Focus on the product providing more or more expensive products. Your product should always give you multiple gains. One being money, second being different product (s). This is why money is made with purchases, not sales. With collections, 60-70% should be a fast buylist sale at 77-95% of spot as another small collection. 20-30% of the original collection that contains high end items should be up to 23% OVER spot (do not be afraid to charge a high price). The bottom 0-20% needs to held no longer than thirty days and sold as bulk lots. Hope this helps.

All of my holds are Japanese borderline niche boosters. I could not liquidate locally if I had to. Just a reminder that if you want security, invest in what people want. 🤷
