Are they ever going to be worth anything? If any of you have seen my posts in the RCC thread, I've got a crap load of the older ones. I've got a TON of the original cards ('98-99), most of the Team Rocket cards ('00), a lot of the Gym Heroes and Gym Challenge cards ('00), a decent amount of Neo Genesis cards (late '00) and then some Neo Discovery and Revelation cards ('01), and just a few Neo Destiny ('02), Legendary ('02), and Expedition ('02) cards.
There has to be AT LEAST 2,000. There's probably more as that's a very conservative estimate. I have all the duplicates sitting on my desk and I'll take a picture in a bit so you can see.
I have quite a few promo and 1st edition cards. I also have cards in different languages. German, Italian, French, Spanish, Dutch, and Japanese. Most of the Euro ones are the older version cards. The Japanese cards (Pocket Monsters, I believe) are a mix of everything. Don't ask why I have them. I don't even remember getting them. Must've been at an old card shop.
So. Once again. Do you think they'll ever be worth what they were supposed to be? In the meantime, my friends and I are going to play with them. Haha. Bring back the old days over a few drinks or something. If they aren't worth anything, I'll find some worth people to give them to. I've got a nephew into it, but I don't know if the cards I have are even "around" (let alone legal for tourneys) anymore.
Edit: Counting my empty card sleeves gets me to 3600 cards. However, I had a lot of cards doubled/tripled/quad stacked in a sleeve. So who knows. I had only a few empty card sleeves so....I'm not sure. Until I physically count I won't know I guess.
