The Trading Floor

Busy couple of days walking the floor at the NTX TCG show. Today we have 23 slabs to share that we picked up over the last 3 days. Shoot me a DM if you want to make a deal. Slabs that don’t sell here will be loaded into the online store.

Most people in the Pokémon card hobby focus on what to buy 🛒

But that’s only half the equation.

The real difference between making money and just collecting comes down to how you sell 📈

If you’re trying to be more intentional (and profitable) with your cards, I think this will help.

A low pop count alone does not make a card desirable—many cards are simply under-graded, not truly rare.

Instead, the post highlights the importance of looking deeper, particularly at Gem Rate and sample size. Cards with both a solid population and a low percentage of PSA 10s often indicate true condition scarcity and stronger long-term potential. Through real examples like Skyridge Arcanine and Lorcana Buzz Lightyear, the article introduces the concept of “The Genius of the And”—favoring cards that combine multiple strong fundamentals rather than relying on a single metric.

Population 1: The Genius of the "And" Over the past few years, we’ve seen a massive shift in the trading card landscape—especially in Pokémon. Grading has gone from a niche service used by serious collectors to a mainstream pillar of the hobby. PSA submissions are no longer reserved for vintage...
