Hello Everyone!
Little Background first since it's my first post.
I started Pokemon TCG waaaay back in 1999. I hustled alot in trading, buying and selling in middle school. Once I finished , I had amassed a collection, threw it in a box and kept it with me since.
Fast Forward to last month when my kid got Mc.D and showed me his cool new Holo Bulb. I went into the old storage room to find my old(OLD) Box to show him what I had made when I was younger.
Here's some pictures some time after that when I went online and was shocked to see what prices became!
Instantly went into "Protect this stuff like it's your kids College Funds AND retirement" mode
So I got the collecting bug after putting everything away in a much more proper way then just having them well stacked in a moving box. What to get? I didn't(still kinda don't) know anything past Gen1. Don't even mention what I remember or not(not being bigger).
So I went with what I knew, old stuff. I found within a week what I knew I had to make a collection of. Banned Japanese Cards.
So here's the pictures from my thread on CGC as I was updating it. I can also share in another post all the random stuff I picked up along the way.
Last picture is from 499 Raws but didn't get enough in the mail to justify an updated picture.
Today, I am sitting on 506 Raws and 8 Graded Banned Cards. I am still waiting on the rest to come in.
While amassing this collection, I also started 2 more.
The 2nd is nothing special, 25th Ann. Pokemon Collection. Nowhere close to finished but it's alot so far
The 3rd and final one which my wife will put a bullet in my head for is
