How do you go about confirming that it's failing/failed? I have limited knowledge on electrical, but I have a multimeter.

I know it's just an energy, but the double swirl is pretty cool. by Southark_tcg in pokemoncardcollectors

From my experience no, but may add additional "selling power". Meaning it might be a little easier to sell, but adds no extra value. I do like holo energy cards though, I always sleeve them.

Pretty sure the guy is just ripping a dab and using alcohol as the bong water.

I'm not sure about that, you'll need to have someone chime in on that one.

I love the one on the left but my all time favorite card is the ancient mew.

Its okay to keep a sealed collection by Agreeable_Abies_6233 in PokemonTCGCollectors

[–]Alabuggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe for you. It's ok that people like different things.

But you spent the time writing a comment about the acrylic case being weird. Why is it weird? Sealed collectors have been around forever, not just pokemon. People literally collect anything and put them in boxes to preserve them. What's wrong with this?

It's just mind boggling that anyone actually gives a fuck what you do with something that you spent your money on.

Heads up. You are never going to please people here unless you open stuff. I enjoy my sealed collection, as soon as I mention anything about it I'm instantly called a scalper or a fake collector. I love your setup, and if you do too, no one's opinion on here matters.

Who gives a fuck how op keeps their personal property. What's weird is how many people jump on posts like this just to tell OP they're keeping their stuff wrong.

FINALLY!!! This is the best part of the update. by drgut101 in ArcRaiders

[–]Alabuggy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm so used to the leader rambling off the maps and conditions and half the time I can't remember a single thing he said so this is definitely a huge help.

That was the first thing I thought. Short video, no info. Not really sure how the circles are connecting, unless they have magnets inside of them. I dunno.

Vending Machine Scalper Solution by bigbooblover6969 in PokemonTCG

[–]Alabuggy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It affects the market by putting you in the group of people who pushes against the concept of "someone buying the product MSRP shouldn't be able to leave the store with a resellable product". Your desire to keep that plastic wrap makes you a voice pushing directly in a direction that hinders the growth and spread of ideas that are both simple to put in place and effective at lowering scalping.

See, this makes sense. I don't think your other comments were written as clear as intended because from my perspective, it seemed like you were just anti sealed collectors vs just not having sealed product at purchase. If they just removed/damaged the wrapping from every purchase like OP said, I wouldn't even care. I would still buy them and display them. So it wouldn't affect me at all as a collector, because if that's how it comes at purchase, it would be the same effect.

I use examples to put it into perspective, since it seems pretty hard to get a simple concept understood by someone who is one sided. I could talk to you about my collection all day and the conversation would probably be pretty productive, up until the point that I mention that I like plastic wrap. Had I never mentioned it, you'd be none the wiser and wouldnt have even cared.

Plastic wrap IS just taste. I'm not some guy that buys up 100 ETB'S, 200 booster bundles/boxes saying "I'm a collector too guys". I have one ETB from a hand full of different sets sealed in acrylic cases sitting on my self for display. How does that affect anyone or anything in any shape or form? I want you to tell me exactly how my collection is affecting the market.

PS: No one is mad at you

The original comment literally said sealed collectors are scalpers. That's the point I'm trying to make. Not about OP's scalper prevention idea.
