<h3 style="font-weight: bold;">📊 Valuation Summary</h3>

<p>To validate the purchase price, we conducted an in-depth analysis of recent transactions for the cards on eBay and reviewed currently available listings. For measuring the potential return on investment (ROI), we examined the historical price development of the English version of the card, focusing on PSA 9 and PSA 10 grades over the last five years.</p>

<p>In the realistic scenario, we identified a significant price increase starting in 2020 and peaking in 2021. We believe this pattern could repeat during the next anniversary, and thus, we used this period's price increase as a basis for calculating the weighted average ROI per annum.</p>

<p>For the optimistic scenario, we projected the prices to follow the same trend observed over the last five years but applied a 25% discount to account for the unique market conditions during the COVID-19 pandemic.</p>

<h3 style="font-weight: bold;">🎯 Exit Options at Maturity:</h3>

<p>We plan to sell the cards between 2028-2030, leveraging the 30th-anniversary celebrations of Pokémon in 2026 and the 30-year mark since the release of the first edition in 2029. Two potential exit strategies include:</p>

<ul>
	<li><strong>Private Sale:</strong> Targeting dedicated collectors through private sales to achieve the best possible returns.</li>
	<li><strong>Auction:</strong> Listing individual cards or the full collection on platforms like Heritage Auctions or eBay if market conditions and demand align favorably.</li>
</ul>

<h3 style="font-weight: bold;">💡 Why Invest in This Category?</h3>

<p>The Pokémon Trading Card Game (TCG) has proven to be a lucrative investment category, with its rare cards achieving record-breaking prices. As nostalgia grows among those who experienced Pokémon's initial rise in the 1990s, the demand for original and rare cards continues to increase, particularly around significant anniversaries. German cards, while historically trailing English versions in price, are expected to mirror their appreciation trends closely.</p>

<hr />
<h3 style="font-weight: bold;">💎 Why Invest in This Asset?</h3>

<p>This full vertical collection of German Charizard cards, graded from PSA 1 to PSA 10, represents a unique and comprehensive investment. The PSA 9 and PSA 10 cards, in particular, are extremely rare and highly sought after. Given that there are only 57 PSA 10 German Charizard cards in existence, compared to 124 in English, this collection's rarity cannot be overstated. With past sales of English PSA 10 cards reaching as high as USD499,000, the potential for value growth in the German market is significant.</p>

<hr />
<h3 style="font-weight: bold;">📜 Historical Context:</h3>

<p>First released in 1999, the 1st edition Charizard cards quickly became a cultural icon within the Pokémon community, thanks to Charizard's starring role in the franchise. As Pokémon celebrates its 30th anniversary in 2026 and the first edition's 30-year milestone in 2029, these cards are positioned to capitalize on the nostalgia and collector enthusiasm that will undoubtedly surge.</p>

<hr />
<h3 style="font-weight: bold;">🏆 Conclusion:</h3>

<p>Investing in this collection of German Charizard cards offers a rare opportunity to participate in the appreciating Pokémon TCG market. While the German cards may not achieve the same exponential growth as their English counterparts, the anticipated anniversaries in 2026 and 2029 present a timely entry point for substantial gains. With a strategic exit plan between 2028 and 2030, this collection stands to be a rewarding addition to any investment portfolio.</p>

<p>Limited and popular Pokémon single cards have significantly increased in value over the past few years. For example, the Charizard card with a PSA 10 grading (English) has appreciated in value by approximately 40% annually over the last 5 years.</p>

Return

<p>Pokémon cards are fundamentally not reprinted. Once an era goes "out of print," there are no new editions. In theory, a reprint is possible, but this is rather unlikely as deliberate abstention has been practiced thus far. Consequently, historically, the prices for cards remain relatively stable.</p>
