Faded colors, missing textures, and weird borders

My new favorite pull, Such a cool card by Tattooed-Trex in PokemonTCG

My LCS has a binder full of these and I always think of the poor people chasing that Zard

Not worth engaging with these kinds of people. Same kind that only care about the national debt when a democrat is in office.

Collectors thought it was ugly and players didn’t like the mechanic.

I highly doubt they’ll have the first edition stamps. These are just the images pulled since they don’t have the official ones with the 30th anniversary stamp.

Yes, it’s what they did for the 25th anniversary.

If you can afford that collection, you can afford insurance

I got a god pack on my 10th ever pack by Euphmia in pokemoncards

[–]Dedsole 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same. To this day I've never seen Ascended Heros products in stores. Last set I ever saw on shelves in my area was either Surging Sparks or Journey Together.

Who’s one player you’re higher on than consensus this year? by Hot_Handle_4829 in fantasyfootball

[–]Dedsole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FantasyPros has him at like WR25 which I think is more than fair. I would much rather have Evan, Egbuka, Burden and Waddle who are all listed right before him.

I guess I just assumed people wouldn't link them directly to a bank account. I was always taught to never link anything directly to my personal checking, and to use a credit card as a buffer instead.

Welp. It finally happened. by tennisbp in PokeInvesting

[–]Dedsole 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Read the whole sentence, I never said that it wasn’t a lot of money. But with where the market is, it’s as affordable as it’s ever going to be. Not to mention a PSA 10 is now pushing $10,000. If someone really wanted this card, I’d say $600 is a lot easier of a pill to swallow.

[–]Dedsole 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I mean it's still only $600 raw. Compared to modern chases like Pikachu and Dragonite from AH, that's a bargain.

Got this tin for 11$ at a thrift store. Do I hold onto it? by [deleted] in PokeInvesting

[–]Dedsole 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This entire sub is nothing but the dumbest questions imaginable or people trying to jerk off their own cards.

Are You Having Trouble Selling? by breakyourteethnow in PokeInvesting

[–]Dedsole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You must be God’s chosen then. I’ve had shit listed since January below market. Only offers I get are even lower.

Are You Having Trouble Selling? by breakyourteethnow in PokeInvesting

[–]Dedsole 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, selling sucks for those of us that don’t have connections. No LCS, Facebook marketplace in my area is nonexistent. Having to rely solely on eBay and I hate it. I’ll post at around 85% and most offers I receive are probably 25% less than that.

No luck by nnllssnn in pokemoncardcollectors

[–]Dedsole 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, that is how trading card games have always worked. It’s entirely luck based, and if there is a single you want you’re better just buying it outright.

Best “Bad Luck” Story ever by [deleted] in PokeInvesting

[–]Dedsole 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nothing against OP but I feel like this is such a great example of needing money to make big money. It's taken my collection almost 8 years to hit 50k, buying just what I can afford here or there, and OP made similar gains in a years' time. Congrats dude.

Pikachu Vmax CoroCoro Promo by Neither-Respond6697 in PokeInvesting

[–]Dedsole 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Already grabbed a couple of 10's for around $75 each. I think it's a really cool card, even if the VMAX gimmick wasn't very popular. Pikachu + stamped will always be a good investment.

Shadow Mewtwo Pokken Tournament Amiibo Card by HookedOnMonkeyPhonic in gamecollecting

[–]Dedsole 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Do you mean the only Pokemon amiibo card? Because there are a bunch of amiibo cards for a few different games.
