>>57602495Buy 30 packs (10 each), or various boxes/bundles with packs at a decent price:pack ratio, buy some sleeves and a nice binder, organise them into cards you like, cards worth something and "bulk" which you neither like and aren't worth anything, you have have an organised collection, try find a local card shop or trade night events even if you have to travel, have a great time. Now decide if there's anything you want to collect in particular and work towards that, buying packs that contain those cards or singles, it could be a particular a set or a particular pokemon or a particular kind of card or a particular artist or just a list of random cards you like the look of. Don't buy packs from scalpers above MSRP, some people will tell you not to do that because it enables an encourages scalpers but I'm saying it because it's not worth it. 3 packs of Shrouded Fable will be far more valuable to you than a single pack of scalped Prismatic Evolutions
