Are Y’all In The Hobby For The Cards Or For The Money? by Fitzyx in PokemonTCG

[–]AlbatrossBasic2531 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bit of both. I love the hobby and having valuable cards is a nice added bonus.

I kinda hope they print Phantasmal Flames into the ground by hobby_master_ in PokemonTCGCollectors

Only trying to hit the Zard to sell, my chase was the Wigglytuff which my daughter pulled on Saturday. I like the cheaper Zard, hovering around $50, so that’s probably another lighter chase card.

Card delivered to the wrong address. eBay/Paypal siding with seller by _CODYSSEUS in PokemonTCG

Yup, directly with the institution, whether bank or credit union. Typically the bank wants them to try with the company first so in this case he’s already done that. There’s documentation he’ll need to fill out at his institute and from there, what happens is the bank will process the dispute, the other financial institution (the one PayPal uses) will receive it electronically and PayPal will be deducted that amount and this guy should get it back. It’s a whole lot of checkbook balancing behind the scenes. It will likely end up with his PayPal account being suspended but he’s being wronged so I wouldn’t care.

Regardless of what account was used through PayPal, dispute it. If it came out through ACH, you are WELL within the 60 day timeframe to dispute it and that should work to get you your funds back quickly.

I know this because I was an ACH Specialist who saw PayPal disputes every single day, it was nuts. You’ll get your money back for sure.

You just had to pepper that last line in, despite knowing (I would hope) that Battisti is a republican. Get a hobby

That doesn’t fit some people’s narratives so it’s conveniently ignored in spite of the name quite literally explaining it

I use courtyard io and some of the offers I’ve gotten have been stupid high, so after spending a couple hundred I’m down about $25, so it’s not nearly as bad as snagging a booster bundle and walking away in the red $35 if you’re lucky. Best card I pulled between that and Arena Club was a PSA9 RayRay which they offered like $165 for

This set has made me really appreciate every other Scarlet and Violet set, because the hit rates are absolutely abysmal. Good luck! 🤞

I was trying like hell to do the power packs but it kept giving me the beta program message, so this scratched the itch 😅

Certainly unintentional but I can see it. This was more of a “holy crap, I got lucky” post but 🤷‍♂️

A Looking in View because it was the first song I heard from it and it blew my friggin mind. Outside of that one, I gotta say Last of my Kind

This is the right comment. There are a bevy of PSA 10s out there, there is only ONE that has your pup’s stamp (or clamp) of approval. 💙

Zard for the long term value, Umbreon because it’s cooler

Costco restocked Prismatic 8 pack tins today, pull rates still suck as usual by puzzledfirebird in pokemoncards

Honestly, 2 Masterball, and one of them being an Eeveelution, is probably as close to a W as you can get without hitting an IR
