[svirtual] ref Hello #/pokemonexchange! I've had so much fun collecting and trading rare event Pokemon over the years, but I think the time has come to part with the bulk of my older Gens collection. Trying to list everything at once would be pretty overwhelming, so I've decided to sell my events in smallish batches of roughly 2 boxes' worth, with a new selling thread once every 2 weeks or so. I'll be starting with Gens 6-7, then a few things from Gen 8, and then finishing with the really old stuff with Gens 3-5. As it happens, the events listed here are all still Gen 6 compatible, so if you need Gen 6 summary screens, that sort of thing, then don't hesitate to ask! EVENT LIST - BATCH 1 Some highlights include 2014 Tanabata Jirachi, CoroCoro Garchomp, Kotone's Tyranitar, PGL Landorus, a Johto Lab Set, two 2014 Scrap Sets, WCSK14 Aggron, and All-Star Shiny Diancie! A Word on Pricing! Prices are listed to the right in the sheet. My prices are completely based on my experience as a collector, and having a rough idea of what things are worth these days. I unfortunately don't have as much time as I would like, to scour older trade threads and see what's selling for what. In the event that there are 2 interested parties, I will simply take a Best Offer from both, instead of running an auction. The person who commented first will always have the advantage of giving the last Best Offer. I will only run an auction if there is interest from 3 or more people in a single event. A Word on Proofing! I'm aware that there's a greater emphasis on proof nowadays than when I started collecting, especially with certain communities accepting nothing less than A-Button proof. I completely understand this take, since every community has its own perspectives. However, my estimation of my events is based entirely on values I learned here on Reddit - essentially, that a trustworthy source is always superior to good proof! Proof can be easily faked; reputation is much harder to fake. Many of my events come from older, reputable traders, most of whom are no longer active, so the chances my events running into issues are quite small. Any Gens 6-8 events that do not have at least Wonder Card proof are #. Gen 3-5 events, however, existed before proof-taking became conventional sometime in Gen 6. This means that these events cannot be judged the same way, and often rely on other things such as attendance, Pokecheck, and reliable trade history. On some proofs, you'll notice "Pre-A-Button" in the Notes. This is the screen during the redemption process that appears right before the A-Button. Many collectors here on Reddit in Gens 6-7 prized this screen even more than the A-Button, which is why some of these redemption albums include this screen but not the A-Button itself. Some folks reached out to me about my events when I wasn't ready to sell yet, so I'll be happy to tag them in the comment section to see if they're still interested. Apologies in advance if I missed you! I've been getting tags every so often for the past couple of years, so it's a lot to keep track of. My timezone is US Eastern so GMT-5 Thanks for stopping-by, and happy collecting as always! # #/valere1213 . .
