my biggest piece of advice is if you're desperate to find a certain pc just be patient and wait it out rather than overspending for it, a bit embarrassing to admit but I spent like $20 (each) on yoongi's answer F and Her O pcs bc I was desperate to complete his collection and BTS collectors know how cute those cards are lol. $20 for a regular album pc is absolutely insane and please don't give those sellers your money.

recently decided to collect all photocards for leeseo and its definitely been a commitment but im getting there slowly - picked up a job at my uncles business to be able to afford it and honestly its the best decision ive ever made. collecting my ult of ults pcs just makes me so happy

i completely agree with ur opinion on collecting only the pcs that bring you joy! i used to collect everything from one of my bias but now i mostly just collect cards from my favs that i find cute and that i like the aesthetic 🩷

i'm in pain, i usually tend to bias popular members 😭

I started my collection like a week ago and I really didn’t know what I was doing but got like 165 cards already but some reason I felt I was doing it wrong so I tried to research if I was doing it right and this video actually helped me understand things I was doing wrong and right at the same time so thx a lot this like helped way more than I thought it would 😊

Honestly one big thing I wish I had thought abt when I started collecting was the presentation of my binders. I am definitely one for aesthetics and when I had started buying binders for my pcs I didn’t rlly think abt whether I wanted to decorate them or not and now I rlly regret the binders I have

I recommend collecting dupes or hand-made ones. It's a lot cheaper and there's more variaty (since most of the time these are from selcas/posts) that's how i been collecting and i love it ! ♡

Sometimes official pc where overprice once a seller "resell it on the market", so yeah others may buy lomo cards or a replica as a alternative for the pc they want. But thanks for this video great explaination. ❤

I only try to complete my bias' photocards meanwhile for the other members I only collect what I pull from albums. My bias is underated so his pcs tend to be priced lower (it's sad but at least I get to save money 🥲)

Sorry for anyone reading this, English is not my first language.

I would like to say that you should definitely be using sleeves that fit snuggly on your cards (typically labeled "small" or "Japanese" sized. Yugioh-sized sleeves are good). Using a sleeve too large means the card can slip around inside it and get microscratches that can lead to larger damage, which diminishes the purpose of a protective sleeve. You could always just double sleeve a card by sleeving it with a small sleeve and then again with a standard sleeve for it to fit better in larger-pocketed sheets.

I'd be so open to trading, but my problem is that I just don't trust people and am scared of getting scammed, so I only trade with people I know or if I can meet them face to face to trade... And I don't have that many kpop stan friends who are also collectors, so I'm basically stuck mostly selling and buying... I also can't limit my collection to a bias or biases... I just collect cards that bring me joy. 🙂‍↕️

Thank you so much, I barely started collecting a few months ago and I had no idea where to start😭

I love your cow mini binder so much, it's so cute! I recently got into K-pop cause of my friends always talking about it and I don't think im gonna collect? But I might get your binder so I can have something to put photo cards in because I want to keep them safe 💓💓 Thanks for your advice though!

Super helpful video! Nice to have all the info in one place!

Member pricing is why I decided to make my own jungkook photocards because I saw pcs at 100€ like ???? come on guys it's still a piece of paper

Thanks for this vid! I just got into kpop a month ago, and I rlly want to get into photocard collecting skz members.

Thank you I’ve decided to only collect TWICE BLACKPINK LE SSERAFIM NEW JEANS KATSEYE and BABYMONSTER

biasing wonhee is hard

Tysm I’m almost starting

I'm just collecting my biases!! Like..I'm getting so much photocards and I bought many packs and stuff and I don't recommend the small books. They are more proun to letting water get in and bending the photocards!!
