Full sequential set of the November 1998 Pokemon KFC cards in PSA 10s sold for $5000 today. These are the indisputable first ever English Pokemon collectible cards that were publicly available.




One Piece is the top selling manga of all time and the second top selling comic ever. It will surpass Superman for top comic sales in the coming years. Oda, the creator of One Piece, has indicated that he wants to finish the manga around 2030, so you may want to get ahead and start buying graded mangas now. Top priority is getting the “first printing” of One Piece manga Volume 1 (“Romance Dawn”), which was printed in December 1997 (see images). There are very few listings on eBay from trusted sellers with a grade of 9.0 or higher in BGS (or any other manga/comic grading company) and recent sales have been between $1500-2000 USD for 9.0 or higher. I expect this price to increase significantly as the manga nears its end, which is still at least a few years away. The hype for One Piece TCG will only likely drive up the price for the OG mangas, which should only be bought in Japanese first printing and not English (unlike the TCG cards where English drives higher prices than Japanese). Get ahead now.
