      tbh i learned that u dont have to pay $15+ for an album card thats already still in print... idk why some people price it so high. also you dont have to buy everything ur faves come out with because it'll add up in the end and you just won't be happy later on.

      Shop around on more than one platform. Sometimes you can only find a card on one platform, but make sure that's the case before you overspend on a card.

  • @elegantmelon2336

    I've been collecting photocards for almost 3 years now and my biggest bit of advice that I've learned the hard way is that if a collection is going to get harder to work on as time goes by, example: albums already out of print and have been for awhile, prioritize that collection.
    If I had prioritized my second generation collections when I started collecting, I'd probably have them finished by now and for my Jonghyun collection, probably for a fraction of what the total price is going to end up being.

    Collecting is definitely not a race and I feel like during covid a lot of people decided to focus more on their fav groups and collect in a less stressful way. However I need to say I avoid collectors who collect the same groups or members as me because usually they´re super fast and it does still stress me a bit. Like... if this person is able to make this good progress, how is it that I´m behind so much?? (Do I make sense here?) But I dont collect MX or Skz or SVT so your channel is really fun, also because you´re videos are sooo long ^^ Greetings~

    Great advice,My first mistake was trying to collect as much of my bts biasline(jin,hobi and Jimin)i went in too fast,brought from the first place i saw them and didn't know about the atrocious member pricing-so lockdown i asked my collecting friends for places i could buy from and discovered buyee and mercari and grew my collection slowly,so when it came to adding new groups i could add sensibly, I found any advice i was given helped me immensely.
    I now collect Jake Enhypen and am starting my WEi Yohan collection at a slow pace-i am doing the first album,then will start looking for the 2nd album PCs at a rate where i am comfortable.
    My best advice is IT"s not a race or competition do it at your own pace and definitely shop around

    This was a really helpful video! I've been interested in dipping my toe in pc collecting especially since I've moved to Korea but I've had a hard time figuring out what I'm doing. Even tho things are pretty cheap overall, a lot of the lingo is different in Korean, and of course the brands, binders etc. are different. It's funny tho cause SKZ isn't very popular here so I never have a problem getting my hands on any of their stuff.

    Buyee and Mercari Jp have an agreementin which isn't allowed to add any new listings straight away, this is to give Japanese customers priority. Neokyo doesn't have this so you can buy new listings which means that you can often find more popular items and cheaper items on there.

  • @savokisan
    @savokisan Před 3 měsíci

    I am a obsessive pc collector. but my recommendation to fans who want to start collecting that there is not much method to actually collect. The best way is to just buy bulk albums as you can get different pcs per album you buy. Similarly POB are given per album you buy. But we all know that we don't want the album itself, we only want the pcs which is why after you extract the cards, the albums are more or less useless. At most you keep one or two copies as your own then the rest is technically useless since you have removed the cards inside and typically no one would buy that album anymore from you.

    A little late but as a collector who started to collect all the groups I do after they debuted and recently deciding to collect a pre-debut (now almost debut) group, do you have to prepare to keep collecting them in the future? Like is it better to start from debut and try to get everything from that era, in that era or space everything out and collect things from like the debut era in like the next comeback? Basically, is it better to collect a debut group with the knowledge everything will get harder to find as time goes on or just hope that everything stays equally available?

For older albums which I won’t worry about now lol, only dk. And I only going to collect 9 pocket inclusions, some times will collect dk special cards. Rarely and no target inclusive cards lol.
    Focused mostly in shinee, itzy and bts
    Ot4 for shinee from story of light and onward .

      I use BoardM sleeves which are similar to Popcorn sleeves, and I think they're pretty good. Especially for someone that has a budget and is only starting out. I believe Popcorn sleeves are a bit thicker than BoardM sleeves too. I often stress out about sleeves since Dragon Shield that everyone uses are so expensive when I convert it to my currency. So BoardM sleeves are perfect for me since they're way cheaper and way more accessible for me.
      PS: Popcorn sleeves are known for inaccurate sizings so be careful when you get them since the sleeves are bigger than what it says on the packaging.

    fuck i wish i learned all of this earlier ): the yes24 treasure jihoon card is so freaking cute... i can't even find it anywhere everyone is trying to buy it... i saw it on buyee mercari jp for $110 T_T
    it would've been great if I purchased the album early and got it as a POB
    Instagram is impossible to navigate. idk how people find photocards they are looking for on there
