The Dos and Don'ts of Card Collecting | Matt & Isaiah
Matt and Isaiah share the 4 golden rules of collecting sports cards and Pokémon!
✅ DO: Collect What YOU Like

Your favorite teams, players, Pokémon
Not what's trendy or "investment worthy"
If it was worth $1, would you still want it?

❌ DON'T: Buy at Peak Prices

Don't buy when everyone else is buying
Wait for hype to cool
Market always corrects
Patience saves money

✅ DO: Buy Into Breaks

Access expensive products for less
$75 break spot vs $1,500 box
Spread risk across multiple breaks
Target your favorite teams

❌ DON'T: Have FOMO

Don't buy just because everyone else is
Collect for YOU, not for social media
Ask: "Would I buy this if no one else was?"
Wait 24-48 hours before emotional purchases

THE BOTTOM LINE:
Collect smart. Collect what you love. Have fun!
