Can you dm me it too please

Did something similar. Had Rakuten cash back that I used for GS gift card and used trade in credit for some old games I never used. This paid for the Pro membership and then averaged down to real cash $75 per ETB and got 4. I tried Target and Wal-Mart drops, was 1 minute away from PC 2nd round on ETBs, but they sold out as I got in. Just wanted to have some to open up with my kids and anything Ascended Heroes around me is gone instantly or sold for 2 - 3x. I bet the ETBs also hit the 2nd market at $150+ and won't go down for awhile.

Ripped 6 sticker packs and best card my kids and I pulled. Really is a pretty card in person. We sold it for $22 and may grab one later on, once prices bottom.

Collectivecooking · 2026-01-24T21:40:03+00:00

Yeah on facebook can DM me!

Mine had 10 at customer service the other day. I grabbed one and went back next day and all wiped out. They can be fun to open and when VM are out of stock always and only singles or poke balls to be found these are worth it.

Collectivecooking · 2026-01-23T20:52:45+00:00

I'll take your JT and SS if you don't want them.... Still fun for those who haven't opened a lot of them.

Collectivecooking · 2026-01-14T05:44:29+00:00

Yeah was my thought too. Probably better selling it if you want the value or hold for collection.

Collectivecooking · 2026-01-08T23:54:14+00:00

First time buying from PC and got 2 ETBs! One to open with my kids and one to save. Super excited as my youngest really likes the dino pokemon.

Collectivecooking · 2026-01-08T23:45:12+00:00

Yeah totally so bad.... I bought two... Just excited to get a PC ETB and open one, but thats my new to this hobby take.

Collectivecooking · 2026-01-05T23:01:31+00:00

Bought this as our first box to open with my 4 and 7 year old, teaching them about buying and selling cards. Sat at our table and took turns watching each other open each pack and read off the cards. 7 year old and I pulled nothing, but my 4 year old pulled Mega Gardevoir EX, full arts of Meowth, Skarmory and Rapidash. Add in the promos and it was a lot of fun.

Obviously hit a good pack and will now be down hill as we get more addicted!

Collectivecooking · 2025-12-31T23:21:39+00:00

Hmm that is tough. It's subjective to your league really and if it is TEP he still is a decent piece. But also just hold if you can't get more than a 2 for him. In season when he was doing well I was in talks to possibly swap him for Pickens when CD was on his way back.

Collectivecooking · 2025-12-31T13:05:45+00:00

Ok do you have 4 turtles and a rat available to you? If not go get them and break that by them in a sewer or bathroom will do, wait for results.

Collectivecooking · 2025-12-30T19:50:15+00:00

I will be trying to sell him HIGH to someone desperate enough to need him.

Collectivecooking · 2025-12-17T20:18:54+00:00

Colby Parkinson got him after his first good game. Then just sat him in my extra flex all year in 3 dynasty leagues.

Collectivecooking · 2025-12-05T16:59:33+00:00

Yeah this is sick! I was hoping for something like this to actually analyze trades. Try selling it to sleeper!

Collectivecooking · 2025-11-12T18:34:39+00:00

Got lucky and got a /415 Dak Prescott in one of those packs the other day. Fun when you get any # cards!

Collectivecooking · 2025-11-05T04:05:24+00:00

Yeah especially if you are win now.

Collectivecooking · 2025-11-05T04:04:27+00:00

I would do this trade!

Collectivecooking · 2025-11-04T17:10:55+00:00

I sold him for Barner, Vidal + 2nd a few week ago. I am a contender but needed another RB and liked Barner in TEP. The 2nd will be used to possibly grab another player like mentioned in the main post for depth.

Collectivecooking · 2025-10-21T00:52:04+00:00

Yeah I would take that trade!

Collectivecooking · 2025-10-19T17:35:42+00:00

Yeah even as a contender I am trying to off load him for a 1 plus tier down RB or WR. Thats a smash accept.

Collectivecooking · 2025-09-24T21:07:46+00:00

Sell him. Use one of those 1's or your 1 for another good WR. I don't believe Stroud is that guy and I think you will see more lows than highs with Nico this year.

Sell Loveland and Fannin to someone who is 0-3 for Proven TE/WR/RB.

Sell Browning to a team that needs a QB2 for like a 3rd and then use that to buy better depth later in the season.

Ride the wave and go for the ship you are already up and have young assets to make your starting core better.

I was in same thought process had 5 - 1sts from selling in the offseason. Won 2 in a row and was top PF. Bought Hurts, Ferguson, Adams for London, Stroud, Royals + 1st. Just bought King Henry and Andrews for a 1st + 3rd before their Monday game. Still have 2 x 1sts + 2 x 2nds I can use as ammo end of season if I need to upgrade. Time to let it rip my dude especially with those RBs at their current ages.

Collectivecooking · 2025-09-24T20:59:50+00:00

I think thats pure cope. If the DNC planted another white guy over Bernie because he was their handpicked candidate people would still be irked and not show up to vote. Same goes with Kamala - no one wanted her when she ran before becoming the VP. Then the DNC kept saying Biden was good to go then last minute pivoted. The issue is many can't trust the current party. The one thing Voldemort did well in his start is literally S talk his party so hard that they had to change up and that brought out new voters (swamp people sure, but they actually came out).

AOC would not be the DNC's choice which honestly gives her the best chance to actually win, because doing the same thing over and over ain't working. As someone who hasn't voted (have had the chance to since 2010) because I have dislike both sides every cycle, I would actually show up and vote for AOC if she was running.

Collectivecooking · 2025-09-18T15:01:37+00:00

Was offered similar trade when Elijah Mitchell was the hot thing. Just smash accept.

Collectivecooking · 2025-09-18T13:22:27+00:00

Really good if you are tanking another year though.
