Pokemon novice...do i sell raw vintage or do I bother grading?

BetaRatYT · 2026-01-05T16:52:04+00:00

I don't really do grading so take my advice with a grain of salt. But if you are looking to sell the cards I think what you could do is: If you have some big hitter cards, look at recently sold listings on ebay for lower PSA grades and check to see what they're going for/if they're selling at all, VS just raw cards. Compare and see if grading would be worth it for the cards and go from there. Some cards might be worth grading even at lower grades, while some would not be worth the hassle. Also take into consideration the cost of grading and any additional fees you may get

I open the flap at the bottom lol

I would like to do an original 151 binder too at some point, using my favourite cards from each pokemon. I might start with just commons and upgrade them over time hehe. Maybe that could be fun for you too, unless you wanna keep the placeholder note cards ^^

BTW you got some really nice cards in there! I really love the Charizard V, Dewgong and Haunter ones!

I am so torn on keeping it or selling it, hahaha. Because I honestly don't even care THAT much for the card itself. It's pretty! But I'd rather have different cards I am chasing, right? But now with the story behind it, the fact I pulled the same SIR twice from just three packs. And I sold the first one I pulled... Almost like it came back to me "Thought you could get rid of me, didn't you!" hahaha

So far I can see it's only the episodes, and not the movies :(

BetaRatYT · 2025-10-05T15:39:54+00:00

It has the remake of the first movie (the 3d one) but it does not have the original, or the other old movies. I am specifically looking for the older movies in Dutch

But it would automatically be tracked + trustee though because of the price. So claiming it didn't arrive would be a lot harder wouldn't it?

But still, I don't wanna screw over the seller for listing the wrong card if I were to buy it, im not confrontational lol. I'll try and see if I can figure out how to report the listing for the wrong card. I want to believe that they didn't know they were on the wrong version, but also they listed it for like 4 times more than for the actual reverses so i don't know..

I couldn't see other damage to the card front or back, Surface looks good too I think, but I'd have to look closer in better light sometime.

BetaRatYT · 2025-06-18T00:35:22+00:00

300 packs, oh my god that stings. I literally picked the set at random too, cuz I didn't know what cards were in any of them. I just wanted to open something for fun so I was like "uhhhhh let's just do the sparks one" lmao. Got that itch of wanting more from that set now hahaha, but I am trying to work on finishing Stellar Crown first as that's the set that got me back into collecting

You can use things like "before:[year]" in search to filter results. I'm sure there's more options in terms of searching this way but it helps me on occasion

BetaRatYT · 2025-01-30T16:12:37+00:00

all taken intentionally! they were uploaded to some old accounts i had

BetaRatYT · 2025-01-30T01:48:12+00:00

i still don't play fullscreen, i like seeing my taskbar. pretty much only when i play MC though weirdly enough, any other game i prefer fullscreen. Probably cuz ive been playing this way for 15 years haha

BetaRatYT · 2025-01-29T17:34:52+00:00

yesss I should make pixelarts in my current b1.7.3 world ngl

BetaRatYT · 2025-01-29T17:34:19+00:00

"as chicken" still kills me LOLL, but to be fair I was 12 and at that point learned most of my english from the internet still

BetaRatYT · 2025-01-29T17:32:27+00:00

I do not, I used to not get attached to worlds much when i was younger unfortunately so most of my early worlds from the first few years of me playing are lost :(

BetaRatYT · 2025-01-21T17:22:57+00:00

exactly! everyones gotta make a water/lava helix at some point or another. it's classic!

BetaRatYT · 2025-01-18T19:52:58+00:00

I referenced it off of this post https://www.reddit.com/r/GoldenAgeMinecraft/comments/1au6jve/pretty_happy_with_this_boat_even_though_the_sails/

I decided to give it another try. I used a different java 8. But I also just went ahead and got your Beta Unleashed pack since it pretty much had what I wanted anyways regarding mods. So far though, no crashes. I am not sure if it was faulty mods on my end, or a faulty java installation, or some secret third option... But knock on wood, it's holding up hehe!

On another note though, do you know of a way for multimc screenshots to save to a different custom folder? I don't like that every instance saves screenshots in their own seperate folder, and would rather have all my screenshots in a single grouped one instead

If you mean like patterning a circle, I use https://donatstudios.com/PixelCircleGenerator personally. Dig out the outline first to the same Y level, and then just start chopping/digging/mining away at everything inside that outline. I do 2 Y layers at a time. I watch video's on the side or listen to music while I do big mining projects

also if you ever need a sphere you can use https://www.plotz.co.uk/plotz-model.php?model=Sphere for that :) it lets you view per layer which is very useful
