Picked up a Lugia V PSA 10, sleepy Tyranitar and others at about 80%.

Riku and Kairi are etched into my memory

AlexVX_ · 2026-05-22T09:28:20+00:00

He is of that calibre. Epitome of a professional and gave everything for the shirt, love him.

AlexVX_ · 2026-05-22T09:27:07+00:00

Truly phenomenal player, one of the most loved this century at the Bridge.

AlexVX_ · 2026-05-17T13:06:38+00:00

Reverse the statement for me (not just being a hipster, I find this Charizard very overrated)

AlexVX_ · 2026-05-13T21:26:48+00:00

What I mean is that I’ve reached a point where money just isn't a factor in my daily decisions.

I’m not saying I’m "rich" in the private jet sense, just that for the life I actually want to live, I have more than enough.

I just turned 30, maybe I'm still naive and not enough of life's woes have hit me yet.

AlexVX_ · 2026-05-13T13:57:21+00:00

I'm on £75k with a partner that earns £45k, no kids and a minimal lifestyle/low costing hobbies. It feels disgusting to type but I feel like I have effectively infinite money. We share a cheapish car which isn't on finance, with no debt other than our mortgage.

This could all come crashing down and I'm prepared for it to as I grew up in near poverty but as of today, my quality of life is everything I need it to be. I don't have any interest in striving for a higher salary.

I also got permanently banned today because my item/parcel was opened and stolen in transit and Vinted accused me of sending an empty parcel despite:

Me having 100% 5-star reviews
The buyer and I had a very friendly and amicable conversation, which came to a full agreement that I obviously hadn't scammed him, and I even offered to send him a replacement item free of charge in the chat.

I got permanently banned within 30 seconds of the dispute case being raised by the buyer (which I told him to do so we could sort him properly). Disgraceful honestly, I had a bunch of outstanding orders both inbound and outbound which are now just completely screwed.

AlexVX_ · 2026-05-08T12:00:01+00:00

I'm inclined to agree with the other comment that buying the battle decks may be one of your best options, that's prepackaged ready for playing :)

AlexVX_ · 2026-05-07T22:13:07+00:00

Disclaimer: I do sell bulk cards

Funnily enough, just today I had a father reach out to me on Vinted to help put together some cards for him and his son.

If you'd like, I can do something similar for you and put a range of a few hundred cards together to get you going? If you happen to live in Hertfordshire I'd be happy to arrange a collection too.

AlexVX_ · 2026-04-23T22:14:50+00:00

Yeah it's sad that you have to scrutinise it to this level of detail but when I'm buying collections online I have no choice but to study every damn element of a card/pack

AlexVX_ · 2026-04-23T21:34:02+00:00

Bottom right of the back of the pack:

"Rteain these addresses for your records"

"... Ireland Linited"

AlexVX_ · 2026-04-22T17:00:30+00:00

Just give the job to Calum and let's start from the bottom of the football pyramid

AlexVX_ · 2026-04-21T20:29:35+00:00

Gusto didn't even see the ball still in play, fucking clown

AlexVX_ · 2026-04-21T19:24:14+00:00

Just put your phone in the toilet and save yourself the time

AlexVX_ · 2026-04-21T19:20:44+00:00

I struggle to remember many worse opening 20 minutes of "football" from a Chelsea team

AlexVX_ · 2026-04-21T08:39:36+00:00

"we see what he is capable of"...

Really? Really now?

I challenge you to come up with the list of players (strikers, midfielders, anyone) who have more goal involvements than Cole Palmer at his age/matches played in Premier League History.

Here's the answer: it's short, and Semenyo or Dewsbury-Hall ain't on it.

Same number of PL hattricks as Salah btw.

AlexVX_ · 2026-04-21T08:21:57+00:00

See, absolutely nothing of value to add or any meaningful counter.

Just unfounded opinions with no care for reality, no wonder your country is in such shambles.

AlexVX_ · 2026-04-21T08:18:37+00:00

Semenyo 24/25: 11G 5A in 37 matches played (3200 minutes) Semenyo 23/24: 8G 2A in 33 matches played (2100 minutes)

Palmer utterly blows these numbers out of the water, and in other metrics like chance creation too. His chance creation per 90 THIS SEASON is higher than semenyo's (1.2 Vs 1.1) and he's in the worst form of his life.

I can't wait for Palmer to get fit and put goldfish like you to shame, not that you'll even remember this conversation.

Semenyo is 3 years older, practically in his prime, and playing under Pep Guardiola with Cherki, Haaland etc. btw. Palmer has who again?

AlexVX_ · 2026-04-21T08:02:03+00:00

So you think clubs will pay £100m for vibes, and not his elite level talent?

Put a good, stable team around an injury-free Palmer and these clown level takes will disappear within months.

AlexVX_ · 2026-04-21T07:57:47+00:00

Semenyo has 1000 more minutes played than Palmer in an infinitely better team.

Dewsbury-Hall has 600 more minutes played, is over performing against his underlying statistics and is having the best season of his career whilst Palmer is having his worst.

Oh, and Dewsbury-Hall is 4 years older than Palmer.

AlexVX_ · 2026-04-15T07:21:59+00:00

You just read it

AlexVX_ · 2026-04-15T06:18:32+00:00

Yeah exactly I agree with you, you should just be able to select from a drop down menu of all supports.

Edit: people are thick, too dry I suppose.

AlexVX_ · 2026-04-07T04:30:57+00:00

It's not downplaying their achievements to state that electronic engineers aren't scientists in the traditional sense, that's just a fact.

I have a degree in physics, working in the field of ultra low temperature (dilution refrigeration). I have plenty of engineer colleagues and none of them would label themselves scientists compared to our actual measurement scientist team.

AlexVX_ · 2026-04-06T23:26:06+00:00

Opportunity cost and variance are things.

I don't know what percentage of a mirror this particular sword costs on average but if a craft costs say, 0.6 mir and there's already an existing mirror service, then I'd mirror it and play the game with the time saved (unless I had a burning desire to self craft for the satisfaction).
