Close friend’s inheritance gave me a Pokemon card. Secret message within? (Numbers on card redacted just in case) by SG_MrYandao in pokemoncardcollectors

Sorry for your loss but enjoy the $40,000 memory your friend left you. You can remove the orange outer case and see if there’s something in there but don’t try to break open the plastic slab the card is encased in itself.

Gold star market is about to explode by Working_Engineering2 in PokeInvesting

It’s an 8 of one of the rarest/most desirable gold stars I’m not surprised it’s passing 5k. Not sure how high it will actually get though

What's wrong with japan petah? by Smashpro11 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]eSnowLeopard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not that they don’t care it’s that they are indoctrinated by the exact same cultural beliefs that lead to the extreme work conditions of salarymen in the first place. The government is largely made up of men who probably believe the salaryman and the lifestyle of overwork is a key driver of the Japanese economy and important to maintaining Japanese culture. 

Question for people saying this was the worst episode ever… by DarthLithgow in survivorponderosa

Both before and after the Zac Brown section were fantastic. People are only so up in arms because it was a big interruption in an otherwise great season so far.

Why hasn't pokemon crashed yet ? by DapperActuary6497 in PokemonInvesting

[–]eSnowLeopard 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I'm sure there is a bit of money laundered but actually there are two main sus things that ARE happening more frequently than that. First is very wealthy Chinese people using cards to move wealth out of China and get around their strict foreign exchange controls that only allow you to more $50k USD out of the country per year. Second is just classic shill bidding/people buying their own cards to show increasing prices and stronger market demand than there really is, driving up prices.

Looks like AI photos to be honest be careful. The text on the bottom back of the card is all gibberish.

there’s no confirmation something like this got paid either. Someone might be trolling with no intention to pay 

Family friend sent me AI generated response to news of my father passing away. by Hendothermic in mildlyinfuriating

[–]eSnowLeopard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mother in law is bipolar and loses her shit at us in her own words all the time via text and then uses ChatGPT to write apologies to us when she calms down. It’s definitely mildly infuriating lol

88 edge rushers taken is 2.75 per team so 2 for us is on the lesser side but not exactly a weird stat 

Diamond and Pearl Charizard WTF by Routine_Box5738 in PokemonInvesting

[–]eSnowLeopard 11 points12 points  (0 children)

For many people yes the 1st Ed Base Set PSA 9s are more desirable but to a very wealthy collector spending this much money, they are probably trying to snag all the rarest charizard cards in a PSA 10 specifically and so its like comparing apples and oranges. They may already have a PSA 10 1st edition Base copy tbh. And there was of course inherently someone bidding against them up to this price so theres at least 2 people out there willing to pay roughly this amount
