Today's Pop, Tomorrow's Grail!

I was thinking about this the other day. Who decides really? Obviously exclusives seem to be higher up than regulars but it's not always the case. I've seen some regulars that are higher than exclusives and even chases. It's bizarre and I don't get it but it happens. Many of the vaulted pops have jumped in price in an insane way too. I was thinking of selling some just to thin my small collection but now, I'm not sure. I want to wait until they are valuted. It's odd but good at the same time. If you need to make some extra money, this could be a good way to do some business. That's why I was looking to sell some and my most valued is probably my Luna exclusive from this year. I'm not a collector collector.

I think anything on clearance will be the valuable ones. Everyone is so concerned with CHASE and LIMITED pops that they forget about the commons. Like say the show DUCK DYNASTY, I've seen those as low as $1/per.

Who's to say in 10 years, there will be a big DUCK DYNASTY resurgence/renaissance and everyone will want everything DUCK DYNASTY. It would be like, who would have thought to collect some DD Pops?! But there will be that one person who bought up all those $1 DD Pops and sell em for $10 this week, $20 next week, and so-on.

Like every collector in the world will have the Game of Thrones and Avengers Pops. But in my opinion, those smaller lines will be the ones that hardcore collectors will have missed, and new fans will want, since they are harder to find.

Or the weird little one-offs like Bob Ross. I can see that one going up in price, just due to the fact that many places won't have it in stock because it's such an oddball. An awesome oddball, but one nonetheless.

Chase Jack Torrance seems to be hugely popular already. I could see that one rising over the years.
