My first respose when I read that was - people still play Pokemon?! :p
The answer is a big fat yes, and they are dropping big dollars on it!
According to TMZ, Logic spent $226,000 on a rare first edition card (Charizard)!
This is a record for Nintendo collectibles (the amount spent)
As someone who is not a collector of anything (dust bunnies under my couch maybe) this blows my mind! That's the price of a house!
I am a little confused though. Logic did post about spending a lot of money on a rare box of cards on his socials:
If you notice on the post he says he spent $23,000 (not $226K)- which is still a crap ton of money - and he does show the Charizard.
Either way, Logic spent a LOT of money on Pokemon cards!
Would you spend that much on a collector's item?
