Basically I've been out of this game for some time, as the $ r*pes the rand in conversion. One a year I'll go out and look for deals but it's 
for poor 
in terms of buying cool new yugioh shit.
I used to hunt 2nd hand yugioh collections in 2019-2020, but now im a deadbeat, even cards that are old and garbage I love to add to my collection like stamps
Anyways CONTEXT!!!
There are two main formats and basically markets in the world which KONAMI the company which makes the children's card game for manchildren.
The OCG and TCG. OCG means “Official Card Game” while TCG means “Trading Card Game”. OCG cards are cards that have been printed originally in Japan and other Asian countries and are widely played in those regions. Meanwhile, TCG cards are cards printed in different languages such as English, Portuguese, French, Spanish - basically westoids.
Since inception Japs had better deals and better quality 20 plus years ago, and westoid cucks always moan about it. 
Also any dramatards with old yugioh cards, even trash unviable old stuff, I collect them like stamps

With card games the only real relevant metric is average cost to complete a play set. I don't doubt it's worse now but this info graphic doesn't really address that. Value wise youre paying an absurd amount for cardboard and the secondary market is going to correct for "value" differences.
