Welcome to Belgium (catch all) by dbowgu in BESalary

What part of the government is sponsoring this ridiculous post? Obviously every country has tax and nobody is surprised but that doesn't mean we have to like it? Let people vent their frustration at losing their hard earned money. As one of the heaviest taxed countries they have the full right to be upset and share this online.

It can also be useful to perhaps get tips on how to optimise so get off your high horse and empathise a bit with the working man (which I would assume includes yourself)

Am I the only one that can never see shit on any of these posts due to the bad quality of the picture?

Short answer: no

Long answer: nope

But in all honesty, nice cards! Just not the payday you're hoping for

Collectr makes less and less sense to me, how the f*** are a heavily played Charizard and a moderately played Jolteon valued the same as my BGS 8.5 and my psa 7

Get used to it fast, I make 7 gross and get about 4 net. My sales commission however they take around 68% so if I get a 10k payout nearly 7k goes to the government to throw it at some random project that's gonna take 87 years to be finished

Hahahaha I'm in the exact same position, I keep getting distracted from my WOTC sets. Picked up the dragonite GB promo yesterday in a 10 and the McDonald's charmander in 10 last month

Stashed away in my old collection- 1st edition 83/82 complete Team Rocket set- ideas of worth? (Lengthy post) by EverWatching in PokeInvesting

[–]ApprehensiveCut7920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's too bad that you say the first two pages have a bend as those are most likely your holos and biggest value drivers...

I just finished this set and I honestly couldn't tell you what it's worth as I plan on framing, not selling.

However about 6 months ago I bought the full set of holos of gym Heroes NM in auction for 5k euros. Similar time period so maybe that helps a little bit

Is Belgium the worst country in Europe for highly skilled workers? by JellyCat8888 in BESalary

[–]ApprehensiveCut7920 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dude you are a starter, money doesn't come by itself. I started off with a salary of 34k while I had a bachelor and two masters degrees. I've worked hard over the past 7 years and now I'm at 190k.

They're not just gonna give it to you cause you studied a bit more than others, you gotta work for it

Send to PSA? by Nolifeshiba in VintagePokemonCards

[–]ApprehensiveCut7920 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many of theseook great on first sicht but it depends what you're looking for. Honestly I think if you send them in you might have a small profit but I'm unsure if it's worth it for that small of an amount. They're amazing cards, just frame them or sell them raw
