by HobbyX店長 on December 09, 2022

Want to enter the game collection card world but feel lost and worried about making the wrong decision ? Then you must read the end of this article. Immediately share with you a comprehensive analysis of the best mentality in various situations.

 

Start with the fundamental meaning of game cards

The original intention of launching game cards was of course to allow players to fight, and the purpose was to bring joy to players. When you start playing battle cards, you might as well find some good partners with similar card ages to study and play together. Always game cards are not a game that one person can play. And it is definitely easier to communicate with friends than to fight alone.

In addition, it is easier for novices to improve by playing with players with similar experience. You must know that TCG has been born for many years, and there are many masters in the market. If you rashly fight against the masters, you will usually lose. You will feel frustrated in disguise and lose enthusiasm for the game, so find an opponent Also do what you can.

player's attitude

As a player who is passionate about game cards, he must have an attitude.

First, pay more attention to the series you love. Many game card IPs such as the well-known Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokémon , etc. will be updated regularly, and new ability cards, character cards and even gameplay will be launched. It changes every once in a while. If you don't pay attention to the latest developments and continue to focus on the cards in your hand conservatively, you will be eliminated in no time.

Second, bravely participate in the competition.

If you like this interest, you need to really invest. Participating in more matches will allow you to use the ammo you have more realistically than just collect it. Moreover, participating in the competition can absorb the experience of other card players, which can be said to be a good exchange opportunity. HobbyX Store will regularly hold competitions to bring more card players together and provide you with a professional battle platform. Of course, don't worry too much about winning or losing. It is important to enjoy the process every time and gain experience.

Collector has a set of collectors

I believe that some of those who read our article have already had a certain amount of seniority in the TCG industry, and some of them are even the collectors we often mention. Collectors and gamers have different opinions on game cards. If you want to focus on collectible cards, you don’t need to spend too much time on the new card series mentioned above. Because new cards are usually produced in large quantities, there is no need to worry about missing them and finding them hard. Instead, what you need to pay attention to are some limited editions, commemorative editions, first editions or out-of-prints, etc. These cards are really collectible, and these cards are usually harder to find in the market and take longer to find. Therefore, as a game card collector, you must be patient, and don’t be afraid to talk to strangers, boldly communicate with card shops and card friends. Sometimes you are proactive enough, and you may get more. If you don’t take the initiative to chat with others, how do you know that the other party also has the card you want ?

Besides, to be a serious collector you have to love them. Don't think it's troublesome, you need to study the maintenance of the card more. No matter how valuable your card is, if it doesn't look good, it won't be taken seriously.

How Investment Collectors Navigate the Market

Investment collectors, in addition to collecting, also regard collection cards as their assets. This group of people is usually the more skilled, more experienced group. They need to deal with more difficult than the above mentioned types of players.

If you want to become a game card collector, you must first think correctly. You can't just start with the card you like from the angle you like. We must always grasp the needs of the market, and we must have vision and know how to judge which cards to buy from various external factors. In addition, you must know how to wait. Sometimes the card in your hand is not worth much at this moment, and it is hard to guarantee that it will appreciate in the future, so you must learn to guard your card.

Second, know very well how the collectible card world works, know where and how to best buy and sell, and be very careful. At the same time, we must know the importance of collecting card identification. Appraisal must pay time and money, but these are worth it, and there is a great chance that it will bring you returns. If you want to know more details, you can refer to the previous articles [Proficient in the world of BGS appraisal in one article | The prelude to winning BGS10] , [Reveal the best time to buy collectibles | No fear of the big environment affecting the market] for reference.

Finally, investors who buy and sell collectible cards must be ethical, know the bottom line prices of different cards, and not over-speculate. An artist who had game cards earlier said that he was very disappointed to see his autographed commemorative cards being bought and sold as currency, and felt that he was not valued. When you invest in collectible cards, you must remind yourself not to raise the price too much for the sake of money, which will destroy the culture of the game card world.
