need me a PSA 10 Raikou soap dispenser xD
damn nice pick ups on the packs! no 151 though?? :(
Nice vid again! Gotta love Japan and I’m looking forward to going one day hopefully!
Hello! May I know what's the name of the second shop? After Card Kingdom and before Mandarake? Thanks!!
Hey - I believe the name is: TCG専門店 BIGトレカ 福岡店, Japan. Thanks for watching the video!
Can I use PSA slab bags instead of team bags?
That works too especially if the PSA bag is a snug fit then it should function very similarly as the team bags. You’ll just have a bit more excess plastic to fold down since PSA cases are taller than top loaders.
Love these Japan videos, always been a dream to go there just for Pokemon!
Thanks! Yeah, definitely a lot of fun. Would for sure recommend it and it was worth saving up for :)
Great video ty!
Thank you! Appreciate it :)
Some sweet finds in this vid. It's hard to find those mid era Jap cards in minty condition these days. I love how the Jap LvX cards have the star pattern holo on the whole card
Yeah, totally agree. I think it was because that city doesn’t get too many tourists or foreign buyers so that’s why some cards could be easier to find. It was interesting to see how many locals were immersed within the hobby!
I'm going to buy the last one. Thank you for this video.
Thank you for checking out the video! Glad it was helpful :)
I hope you had lots of fun in Japan! I'm headed to Tokyo next month, looking forward to watching the videos you filmed in Tokyo & a recap everything you picked up!
Thank you! I did, it was loads of fun and really wished I could have stayed longer. I’m sure you’ll have a blast as well :). Safe travels and thanks for checking out my video!
@@TCGCollector Thanks! accidental face reveal @5:06 🫣, now I know who to come up to say Hi if I catch you at a Bossa card show 😅😅
😂 haha, please do say hi! Also don’t mind meeting up there too. Nice to get to know more local collectors 😄
the first option is actually perfect for me because my slabs have bumpers on them, thank you
Great to hear! Thanks for checking out the video :)
i wile yuse yore link
Thank you!
How often are there shows like this? Do you know where I can find when such events happen?
If you’re in the Greater Vancouver area, these shows happen once a month usually at Bonsor community Center in Burnaby. I believe twice a year, it’s at the bigger location in Langley. There are also similar shows that happen occasionally or annually but the one by “Bossa” is the most consistent show I would say.
@@TCGCollector thank you very much!
No problem! Definitely recommend checking it out :)
@@TCGCollector oh will do thanks! I am just getting into card collecting so this is interesting to me. D:
How long does it typically take for cards to return to Canada Vancouver area? I submitted one card to try it out
It depends on the tier you chose. Last time, I did the cheapest tier and it came back in about 3.5 months?
@@TCGCollector the one I chose said 15 days plus the amount of days it takes to travel to their grading offices
Then I would say it should be more or less that time frame. That’s probably the more expensive tier. I was using the $15 tier before
The card moving in the one-touch holder will not damage the card. Look at PSA slabs they all move around a little bit. You are more likely to damage the card using a penny sleeve and jamming it into the recess of the one-touch.
That's why I use a perfect fit sleeve - there's no jamming required. Card's in PSA slabs do move around a bit but in the One Touch it moves around a lot more. The case design for One Touch and PSA slabs are also different (more free space in the One Touch). At the end of the day, if you shake the PSA slab enough, it will still damage the card... It just depends on how much people want to protect it.
If they ain't good, why does Pkmn Company include them? without sleeves btw.
Looks fun! Didn't see any Raikou's though. They are sleeping on my boy
Haha yeah, they did him dirty xD
Ever thought about cracking them open and tryna regrade em for a 10?
Good point. I'm sure a small fraction of those cards may come back a 10 but for the moment since they're for my PC, I've been too lazy to try. But if I ever come across a very low pop card (eg. mid era lv.x or ex), then I'll try!
I’ll be going to Japan in 2 weeks. Excellent video of the walkthrough and very helpful to know what to expect. We’re you able to walk in or do you have to have a reservation?
Thanks for checking out the video :). Yes, I was able to just walk in for the Pokémon center store. This was applicable to all the Pokémon centers I visited in Japan. However, the only part that requires reservation is the Pokémon center cafe which is located right beside the store at this location (Tokyo). Have fun!!
If you are still in Japan, I have a personal recommendation for you: I love the second hand chain called "DORAMA". You can get Pokemon cards at pretty cheap prices, especially at the storage box section - you can browse through there and find a lot of cards starting from 30 yen (20 US cents ish) and you can have some lucky finds if you feel like spending the time. I enjoy just looking through the cards and I've occasionally found cards worth around 10 bucks in the 30 yen section, so it's definitely worth it.
Dang, unfortunately I just got back. I would’ve 100% been down for that. Thanks for the recommendation though! Will definitely check it out next time.
Heading to Japan next and looking forward to checking this store out.
Be sure to also check out the Tokyo store in the train station. There's the really nice conductor pikachu plushies (my fav one).
That’s actually extremely cool, great video 🔥
Really appreciate it 🙏! Thanks for checking out the vid!
nice vids
Thanks 🙏! Appreciate you for watching!
whatcha end up picking up?
Picked up a bunch those Pokemon Center plushes haha. Also picked up that that corocoro magazine that comes with the promo card + pikachu toy for only around $10!
@@TCGCollector cant go wrong with plushes!! haha nice pick ups
Thanks! Hope you have some nice finds if you’re going to the card show this weekend!
lets go pokemon center! omg the sleeping snorlax and pikachu is very cute
Haha yeah! Definitely was tempting!! 2 plushies for the price of 1 haha
What would you pick up here?
Sitting cuties/pokemon fit plushies! ☺️
the whole store atm
@@Bananamilklver Agreed, definitely hard to make decisions lol
That was my primary haul haha. Also makes for a nice souvenir!
Are the Pikachu plushies still there? (Sakura and ninja)
I'm shipping from Canada, would you recommend sending it by fedex or canada post (understanding both are a gamble)
I think both are fine. I usually just do Canada Post since it's usually cheaper and I personally never had any problems with it. Worked fine with me when I used it for my PSA submissions from Canada. I guess as long as the package is properly insured, you should be fine!
i do this but with 7s because its still near mint and most the timer lower then raw value if anything crack and trade raw for more value
Ah I see, yeah it’s kind of weird that in those grade ranges the slab goes for less than the raw. 7s are also great binder copies!
How did you get these awesome cards!!!!! That magikarp is for sure one of the best cards
Thank you! Definitely took some hunting and patience haha
@@TCGCollector how much did you pay for it? Just curious if you don’t want to answer no worries. It’s an awesome card
@@Xsn1pes I paid (likely overpaid) quite a bit for it back then. It was I think 6-7k? I think it was because I wanted a graded copy and during that time I haven't seen a "cheaper" copy come on the market for a while. I think the card was definitely pretty clean with the exception of an almost unnoticeable crease unless you look really close. I think if I crossed it to BGS, the value should go up a bit since I think it can probably get ~4 there.
You have convinced me to get PSA 9s. Thank you sir. The main purpose is to get the card. The investment potential is just a bonus
Thanks man - appreciate the kind words. Just my opinion as I knew a lot of people may have different perspectives but I thought I would share my not so popular opinion as well. I think 9s are really good for collectors-investors if that makes sense. Appreciate you for checking out the video!
Nice video! Do you know where I can find the next event?
Thanks! If you are local (metro Van), there are these monthly card shows called "Bossa card show" where they run out of Bonsor and sometimes at the Langley Events Centre. This specific video was at a Toy and Comic show which I think only happens annually if I'm not mistaken
Lv.X GANG!
Yessir!! Absolutely gorgeous cards!
Have you looked at the chasers from Call of legends? SL1-SL11. Great looking cards and PSA 9 prices are decent compared to boosters/blisters
Sorry for the late reply but yes, that are definitely on my radar. I think they are gorgeous cards with a limited print run. Also love the silver borders. However, I'm currently just focused more on Lv.X and ex cards as those are cards I grew up with. Do you collect them?
What would the right size top loader be for sports cards? same as pokemon or the one you used?
It depends on the type of sport card. I would google the name of the brand that you are collecting. Usually it will be thicker than Pokémon cards but I’m not sure the exact dimensions.
What I am referring to is the thickness of the toploader itself btw
No hard feelings.. But I only collect PSA 9 for Vintage card because PSA 10 cost wayyy tooo expensive. But I have friends keep encourage me to get a 10 because it can determine the value if I met any urgent stuff that requires me to .. "sell it for easy cash".
No worries at all. We are all allowed to have our own opinions! Yeah for sure, the 9s I find good value especially in more vintage stuff. For the 10s, I think depending on the card it may be a lot more easier to sell. However, at the same time, the price you pay may be quite a bit lower for the arguments you just provided (more people want 10s than 9s). I think mainly the cards I buy are for my personal collection so I don’t think I would be selling it in the near future.
Average price for shipping one TCG Card is $1.50?
I’m in Canada so it’s about $0.92 for the stamp. Then after factoring in the envelope, top loader, paper, the costs is near maybe $1.25? Keep in mind eBay will also take a cut of that $1.5 so the amount you actually get will be ~85% of $1.5.
@@TCGCollector I just sold a $2 card and made buyer pay shipping. I made $1.27 of the $2. I have to sale each card at least $2 to make over $1... 😂
haha, yeah sometimes it's not worth it after factoring in time and the potential for scammers... Got burned a few times for sure. Good luck!!
Do you have any go to card stores that sell lots of single cards? I’m looking for gold star cards but I cant seem to find anywhere around the Vancouver-Burnaby area.
Hmm I really like Everything J&J, treasure chest games, Wiser’s collectibles. They seem to have pretty good raw cards and I’ve seen gold stars there before!
nice collection bro, i do/think exactly the same about collecting 10s, but honestly 9 isnt even worth it either, my whole collection is psa 8s. cuz the difference isnt even that much from 8/9/10. I collect from nostalgia and i like to look at them but 10s are just overkill, 8 are just fine. Also if price of pokemoncards drop in the future holding only 10s will kill your bank.
Thanks man. Appreciate you for checking out the video! Totally agree with you that the 8s are also great value.
I want these legend cards so bad we have the Lugia but that's it
They’re definitely super cool! Definitely don’t get the attention they deserve!
Whats the show called and how often does it happen
It’s called the bossa show. Smaller ones happen monthly at Bonsor in Burnaby but the larger shows (shown in the video) happens once every 3 or 6 months ?
@@TCGCollector thank you
It's possible to put the magnetic card holder through a chain?
I think it would be hard. Defiantly don’t see a hole unless you drill one in
Thanks a lot for the tips!!! I've tried and it work like a charm.
Glad it works! Thanks for checking out my video :)
Fuck I rawdogged my favourite card in the magnet one touch. Time to buy some sleeves
Lol, hopefully the cards are still fine!
Awesome tutorial
Thanks so much. Really appreciate it :)
Thanks for this, looking to sell some low end cards on eBay. For a single card in sleeve and top loader does it only need 1 stamp? Thanks!
Sorry for the late response. Yes, it only requires one stamp! It should also say the postal rate online and what the weight cut off is. So I believe Canada post will able to ship if its <30g per envelope.
going near the end of the day was probably better, in the morning it was so packed you could barely move.
That's a good point. I used to always try and go during off times
You see that pyroar flashfire box? Earlier today I visited the store and I traded for it
Sick - what you trade for it
@@TCGCollector 2 Costco exclusive boxes with some tins in them that are a few years old and $40
Where do you get the sleeves?
Basically any game store. Or eBay and Amazon would be your best bet too. Have affiliate links in the description if you do want to purchase them :). Thanks for checking out the video!
Oh no, where is it? I missed that
It was at Bonsor in Burnaby! But they have these monthly and I believe sometimes they’re at the bigger Langley convention centre which is cool
damn nice pick ups!! nice to visit on a rainy day
Thank you!! Gave you a shout out at the end xD for being my first channel member haha. Hope we can chat in person too soon!
@@TCGCollector haha appreciate the shoutout :D keep it up!
