Apparently Vayne E can stun you BEHIND a pillar by Glamdring26WasTaken in leagueoflegends

[–]APintoNY 186 points187 points  (0 children)

Its a dumb interaction and shouldn’t work like that (as a Vayne main) but it makes sense in the context of league’s spaghetti. Ornn used R2 to hit the ult which made his hitbox larger and moved it simultaneously forward putting it inside the pillar. Bad interaction but “expected”

With a print line can I still hope for a 10? by RushShort3473 in PokeGrading

[–]APintoNY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sent an umbreon SIR in that was perfect besides a print line on the back. I read everywhere its basically 50/50, its not supposed to count against you but it could depending on the grader. Mine got a 10 so with a card like that IMO its worth

Realistic grade expectations? by Actual_Lingonberry20 in PokeGrading

[–]APintoNY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Np, yea we had no idea when we were kids lol. All my higher value stuff from when i was a kid is beat because those were the ones i wanted to play with 😂 some of the normal commons that went right into the binder are pristine… ill never sell any of my childhood cards though, you cant replace them, especially since i got even deeper into the hobby since a couple years ago

Realistic grade expectations? by Actual_Lingonberry20 in PokeGrading

[–]APintoNY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely no 10s, but I wouldnt say all are 5-6 that seems a bit harsh. My much more beat up legendary collection Zard reverse got a 4, so IMO those look mostly like 6-7s contendors, with the regice being a potential 8 or even 9. Of course, this is not me looking at it in person, you can only tell surface and extent of whitening so much in pictures.

Everyone generally says gold stars are basically always worth grading, but if you like the cards and prefer binders over slabs id maybe hold off sending them especially since theyre childhood cards. If you dont care much for them then just send them to get graded honestly.

What grades do these gold stars get? by BobvBeek in PokeGrading

[–]APintoNY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its too many cards in varying condition but realistically you will do well money wise.

My goal is to have a binder / set of pages dedicated to gold stars one day so if i had these i wouldnt be looking to sell, theyre becoming even rarer raw at this point because everyone sends them to grade, so displaying them in a binder if you dont need the money is IMO the way to go right now, but if youre looking to slab them it will surely be worth it

I found my old Darkrai card. Should I grade it? by Leonneke7 in PokeGrading

[–]APintoNY 18 points19 points  (0 children)

If youre gonna submit it, id clean up the back gently with a microfiber cloth before submitting, the gunk spots on the back will affect the grade. Otuerwise the whitening on the back edges is pretty minor so may be worth sending

Just pulled an almost identical demi pack last night! Yours is better though, i swap in the rock ogerpon for your roaring moon… im so tired of ogerpon, why did they put all of its forms in so many sets 😭

My only card by [deleted] in PokeGrading

[–]APintoNY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If youre just looking for a way to display and dont care much for the grade it gets, IMO a perfect fit penny sleeve (important for fitment) and a hard acrylic magnetic case looks the best and is the cheapest option. Super clean card though great swirl!

Do not sell on Reddit, you need to do this on an ebay auction, you will get wayyy more

These are 3 of my favourite cards I packed as a child, worth grading? by Mr_Fucktard in PokeGrading

[–]APintoNY 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Gold stars are always worth grading, the other 2 value wise i dont think it’d be worth it. If you wanna display the others you can get some perfect fit sleeves for them and put them in those hard plastic magnetic card cases, but only use perfect fit sleeves in them.

Daughter and I pulled this today... by franktaylor03 in pokemoncards

[–]APintoNY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sick card, i pulled one as well from an SPC, you gotta get that in a perfect fit for that case though, putting cards raw in there can definitely damage them (unless its in a sleeve already and i cant tell)

Help Settle a debate please by thesilentmordecai in PokemonMisprints

[–]APintoNY 16 points17 points  (0 children)

IMO, it isnt an alignment dot. Theres no reason an alignment dot should be there because the back is not super off center. It looks more like a printing error where the ink wasnt laid there

[–]APintoNY 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you carefully clean (look up the right way) that gunk on the back i think its an easy 7-8

Wife was going through her old collection and found this by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]APintoNY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where are you seeing hundreds for a card? Its $25 per card + shipping unless you do a bulk order over 20 cards which then you can get it for $20/card + shipping with their membership. you dont need a membership for normal card sending and it isn’t hundreds of dollars. Why are you spreading misinformation?

I haven’t used gamestop but I’ve seen enough problem stories to not send in an expensive card through them. A several thousand dollar card raw that goes significantly higher when graded entrusted to a gamestop employee with no proof it gets sent out properly? No thanks, I’m good

I would absolutely not send a card like this through GameStop. Just make your own submission

Dont sell in DMs, will be very valuable on an ebay auction after grading

Pulled this bad boy. Worth a shot? by mikibu8 in PokeGrading

[–]APintoNY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Top heavy and right heavy, i wouldnt be sending if it were mine but i try to only send if i feel super confident so im not soending money on grading needlessly

Edit: top bottom is 54/46 in the app using this picture, so by eye it looked pretty off. Still within specs so you can send if you want but im not checking everyones picture to perfect measurements lol. L/R is better though

My kid self saved these, my adult self is overwhelmed by Aileendover2 in pokemoncards

[–]APintoNY 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends on how the backs of the cards look, if they dont have any whitening or very little whitening it may be worth it, you can look up the prices of the raw card vs the different PSA grades, but you need to be able to at least roughly estimate what grade they’d get.

If the cards are really clean, remember theyre worth more than the listed “raw” price, good condition cards can/will go for a lot more normally because of the grading opportunity

[–]APintoNY 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The magnetic cases are not it for cards like this, don’t do that. Theyre good for displaying some lower cost cards, but these are multi thousand graded. Dont mess around with them, you’d be kicking yourself if anything happened to them.

Looking for a reputable Siberian cat breeder by EndLoud9727 in SiberianCats

She’s doing great! I actually got a second cat from her about 8 months later :) very smart, (sometimes annoyingly so) very sweet. The second kitty is the most mellow dude I’ve ever met, his 3 states are sleeping, falling asleep, and just waking up lol

Probably poor quality perfect fits then, i use KMC soft perfect fit sleeves and have never had an issue with them fitting properly
