We finally did it! This is the COMPLETE Legendary Collection Reverse Holo Set! The initial goal was to complete this set in PSA 9s. After looking over the collection goals, I knew the impossible was not far off.
The monumental challenge in this objective was the lack of available mint cards. Either I had to buy a collection and hope for the best, or open packs. These cards are notorious for print lines through the reverse holofoil and will scratch at the slightest touch.
When I started aggressively going after PSA 10s, packs were around $40. It's hard to believe these are well over $100 in such a short period of time. I was also fortunate that demand was not as strong when I first started. I remember buying one of my first PSA 10s, Dark Dragonite, for $40 back in 2013. Today's market would never let that card go anywhere close to $40.
The end was tough. There were 5 cards left, and I was lucky that 3 familiar sellers had all 5. Over the course of a Friday, Saturday and Sunday, I closed all 3 deals to complete the set. It was one of the most gratifying moments in the years of collecting. I'm proud to share the final results with the Pokemon community.
There's a bonus at the end to help complete my journey towards a master set; full holo set and non-holo rare set in PSA 10s. Let's not forget about the box toppers and theme deck exclusives. They were tough in their own right. I have the commons and uncommons in semi-rigids ready for PSA. The ultimate goal is not far off.
Thank you for watching. This has certainly been a tough feat with many hurdles along the way. See you again soon!
