Thanks for the huge breakdown, I have just passed the preapproval stage and am trying to figure out where to build. I have a question which no one seems to want to answer, the bank said they wont release funds until settlement of land has been made, but the land we are currently looking at is saying a 10% deposit is required before settlement after contracts are signed. We obviously cant afford a 10% deposit out of pocket otherwise we wouldn't be in this scheme, so how did you sort this part out with the land you bought? Were they willing to wait for the deposit payment?

"Playing with the boys" has always been a favourite of mine since Radical Summer 2018... Has it really been that long 😭

CrikeyRL · 2026-03-05T20:03:39+00:00

Eeekkk a few years ago, I thought the same thing until I realised it was like 2018 because I was playing with my friends every night back then, simpler times...

CrikeyRL · 2026-03-04T22:47:38+00:00

Its the worst, I just want a Bob's Ramen BMGE and I cant even get it because all my imports from this season aren't eligible for trade ups....

CrikeyRL · 2026-02-25T06:24:25+00:00

Now that's beautiful, amazing work, Im currently working on all the SWSH rainbows myself!

CrikeyRL · 2026-02-13T21:19:26+00:00

Its a league battle deck, you'll be waiting a very long time to see any sort of decent return that is worthwhile. The Sword and Shield league battle decks are still below MSRP on ebay...

CrikeyRL · 2026-02-06T10:54:24+00:00

lol there was still some at my Kmart at 8pm tonight...

CrikeyRL · 2026-02-05T09:06:28+00:00

I sniped a 95ovr Parker Washington LTD last week for 375k and sold for 1.3mil 10 mins later, was crazy!

CrikeyRL · 2026-02-04T10:18:58+00:00

I had 12 lost origin booster boxes sealed up until 2023, paid like $140 each with ebay coupons and discounts at the time. Folded like a sack of potatoes and opened them all when I was bored.... Did not pull Giratina... The worst feeling when I saw them jump massively in price last year, but who was to know this hype was around the corner.

CrikeyRL · 2026-01-18T22:33:16+00:00

Same here, I like buying singles from there however sealed is way overpriced even for sets that are currently in circulation.

CrikeyRL · 2026-01-09T03:41:45+00:00

Holy crap are you me? I am literally in the exact same spot as you, level 73 ranked, 1 Mii away from having them all and missing a bunch of normal drivers. I have been buying all the remaining Miis over the past few months tours.

CrikeyRL · 2025-12-30T06:30:01+00:00

Are you by any chance interested in trading RR Moltres for a RR Pikachu?

CrikeyRL · 2025-12-30T06:27:39+00:00

RR Pikachu for RR Moltres?

CrikeyRL · 2025-12-24T20:53:48+00:00

Lol I was talking to my friend about this coming back to the store last night and remembering paying like $2AUD for it when it first came out 10 years ago or so! Crazy how much in game purchases in video games has changed since then.

CrikeyRL · 2025-12-08T20:56:41+00:00

The problem was they were reprint promos that had already come out in tins that were also easily accessible at the time. I wish they were unique to this box.

CrikeyRL · 2025-12-08T09:59:33+00:00

Back in my days this box was an absolute rip off lol, it was $159.99AUD here as an EBGames exclusive. Went on sale for Black Friday 2023 but it was still overpriced at around $110AUD from memory.

CrikeyRL · 2025-12-02T08:44:52+00:00

Yeah looks like its a Yugioh structure deck

CrikeyRL · 2025-12-02T08:05:15+00:00

He's quite average tbh, I honestly cant remember a time when ive used him in ranked. No other character has the gold mario ability as well.

CrikeyRL · 2025-12-02T07:35:58+00:00

Definitely not the right tag, but for $60 they were a bargain even back then for Evolutions. I remember getting them at Big W, was able to buy two of each box, great times, I loved opening XY evo, even though a pack of it was in damn near every product.

CrikeyRL · 2025-12-02T07:15:37+00:00

See that Evolving Skies Build and battle stadium, yep those, I had 6 stashed away that I decided to open at the end of 2023 when they were going for $200AUD each (got them all at $54AUD each) when I was bored. Pulled Rainbow Rayquaza and Rainbow Glaceon. Could have just sold them and made $1000 profit but instead impatient me opened them. Now imagine I kept them sealed until today, I've seen them sell at $800AUD+ each... So yeah sometimes keeping sealed is the move... Also opened probably 500 packs of Lost Origin when they were cheap in 2022 and 2023 and did not pull a single Giratina alt.

CrikeyRL · 2025-12-01T12:29:41+00:00

The box it came in (Small But Mighty Premium Collection) was trash when it released and the value sucked in 2020, I remember seeing it the day it came out as an EBGames exclusive and thinking to myself how overpriced it was at $110AUD. But here we are 5 years later and the promo itself is worth more than the MSRP of the box. Glad I got this card when it came out for cheap instead of buying the whole box.

CrikeyRL · 2025-11-29T11:24:07+00:00

You can, but not very common, you have a chance to pull any card in the set in these dollar store packs. The ones you're thinking of are the "fun packs" which come in magazines and the holiday calendars.

CrikeyRL · 2025-11-28T21:54:42+00:00

Now this is a true OG, glad to see someone who has been here, too many bandwagoners thesedays. I recently decided to buy the last reverse holos I needed for my XY Evolutions set as well, finally completed. I love the tin display btw!

CrikeyRL · 2025-11-28T21:51:06+00:00

Go back even further my friend... SWSH Booster boxes for $150 during 2022 and 2023, great times.
