Hey everyone, it’s your boy back again with another deep dive into my latest project. Today, I’m talking about something that’s been taking up a lot of my time lately: the “Battles of Legend: Monstrous Revenge” card list. Yeah, I’ve been digging into the prices of these Yu-Gi-Oh! cards, and let me tell you, it’s been quite the journey.
Getting Started
So, first off, I had to get my hands on the actual list. I started by looking around online, just browsing through forums and fan sites. I found bits and pieces, but nothing solid. Then, I remembered a buddy of mine who’s super into Yu-Gi-Oh!, so I hit him up. He pointed me to a couple of online databases where collectors hang out. That was a good start.
I signed up on those sites, and that’s where the real work began. I spent hours scrolling through pages, taking notes on each card, and jotting down any price info I could find. It was a bit tedious, but hey, I was determined.
Compiling the Data
After I felt like I had a good chunk of the list, I started organizing everything. I made a big spreadsheet, you know, the works. Columns for card names, their types, rarity, and of course, the prices. I kept going back to those community sites, cross-referencing everything, making sure I wasn’t missing anything big.
There were some cards that were way more expensive than others. I made sure to highlight those in my spreadsheet. And for the prices, I noticed they varied a lot depending on the card’s condition—graded versus ungraded. I made separate notes for those too. It was a whole lot of data entry, but seeing it all come together was pretty satisfying.
Validating Prices
I didn’t want to just take these prices at face value. I mean, anyone can post anything online, right? So, I started looking at actual sales data. I checked out some auction sites and online marketplaces where people were actively buying and selling these cards. I compared those prices with what I had gathered. It was a good way to see what people were actually willing to pay.
I also reached out to some of the sellers and buyers in those online communities. I just chatted them up, asked about their experiences, and got a feel for the market. Most folks were cool and shared their insights, which was super helpful.
Finalizing the List
After all that, I went back to my spreadsheet and made some adjustments. I added more details, like the release date of the set (June 22, 2023, by the way) and some notes about why certain cards were more valuable than others. I wanted to make this list as comprehensive as possible, even though it was just for my own use, at least that is what I thought at the time.
Finally, I had a pretty solid price list for the “Battles of Legend: Monstrous Revenge” set. It wasn’t perfect, and prices can change, but it was a good snapshot of the market at the time. I felt pretty accomplished, to be honest. It was a lot of work, but I learned a ton about these cards and the whole Yu-Gi-Oh! collecting scene. Then a friend told me that I could share this with others and help them. Then I decided to share my experience with you guys!
So, that’s my story of how I put together this card list. Hope you found it interesting! Catch you all in the next post!
