Episode 1210: "Has Stern LE FOMO Reached an End?"
Podcast23 min listen
Summary
Stern LE FOMO is dead; Pokemon price crash signals end of collector speculation era.
Kaneda analyzes whether Stern's Limited Edition FOMO has ended, examining Pokemon LE's dramatic price collapse from $25,000+ initial deposits to $14,500-$16,000 current market prices. He argues Stern LEs consistently lose value due to oversaturation (15,000-20,000 units annually), inferior materials compared to competitors, and lack of meaningful differentiation from Premium editions, contrasting this with boutique manufacturers' stronger value retention.
Do collector's just not see $13,000+ in value anymore?
