Love this card

This is my favorite card of all time

Will be keeping these for years !

Quick backstory:

Back in May 2025, I was gambling on TikTok mystery packs. I bought 3 “Milky bags” bags at $300 each hoping to hit the big chase (a PSA 10 Umbreon worth around $2k at the time). I didn’t hit anything, so the seller let me pick one “insurance” card from a group of 10.

I of course chose the Red’s Pikachu promo.
When the card arrived, I instantly fell in love with it. I ended up buying 10 PSA 10 copies for $290–$315 each. It just felt like a no-brainer, a Japanese exclusive promo featuring the main protagonist with Pikachu, plus a Red & Pikachu Netflix show had just been announced.

I even picked up a Black Label and a Pristine CGC because I loved it so much.
Total invested: around $5,500. It’s now worth just under $30k.

TL;DR: Turned a lost $900 TikTok mystery pack gamble into a ~$30k collection of Red’s Pikachu10s because I fell in love with the card.
