It's been a while since I have purchased Pokemon cards, over a decade, and I was thinking of possibly getting back into it. I'm sure that some of you are much more knowledgeable than I am in this topic. I was thinking of purchasing three boxes of roaring skies, and getting the rare ones graded. I have heard some people claiming that you can generally speaking not make money off of purchasing boxes and selling the cards as singles. Well what if you bought more than one box to help the chances of completing the set. I was doing the math
~$300 for three boxes of roaring skies
~$30 for bulk penny sleeves
~$700 to get a reduced rate from PSA to grade 100 bulk cards to get the price per card low
~$30 shipping and handing
~? sturdy card holders to ship in
~? ebay and pay pal fees to sell duplicates on ebay
I'm not really sure if you can get your money back. I was thinking of possibly attempting to get a few boxes to try and complete the set of roaring skies, and get the set graded as a complete set in PSA ten, yes this would be priceless and could possibly sell for thousands since you would be the only one with a complete psa 10 set, but the problem would be finding a binder.
Please provide me your knowledge and experience and trying to make a profit off of this hobby in the long run. As a kid I couldn't through around over $1000 into one hobby, but now that I'm much older it isn't a problem.
