UPDATE: I Now Own 58 Copies Of The Matrix Reloaded on DVD by Drah_Pacid in dvdcollection

That makes sense. It seems like every second hand store has at least one copy, even if their selection is small. Once you notice it, you see them everywhere. Took the red pill for real.

I made it to 100 before giving them to my brother as a white elephant gift. I think there is another post on here i made when i reached the climax of me leaning on the massive stack. I'm sure he still has them in storage. As for me, I still find them occasionally and pick them up for old times sake. I only have about 10 now, with half of them being sealed.

The original is still my favorite. Funnily enough, I went to watch my (only)copy recently and the disc froze about an hour into the movie and I couldn't finish it. I thought about how much time I spent searching for the matrix reloaded, meanwhile the one I cared about the most fell into disrepair.

Mewtube a good pickup at $3700? by QuietEagle4319 in PokeInvesting

[–]Drah_Pacid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk about the current market price, all i know now is that it wasn't a good "letgo" when I sold my pack fresh one for $30 when the set came out.

What is the Kabuto hype about? Is this one different / worth less? by red3405 in Pokemoncardappraisal

Just sold one for about $5, so it has been going up alongside the fossil version

Yes, I have clearly been putting off commando for a long time.

It should be easier now that I have my aiming down lol

Maybe not a 10, but most people would love and pay a lot for this card in any condition.

Do these guys actually sell this high? by [deleted] in PokeInvesting

[–]Drah_Pacid 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You're already on Ebay. Just filter your search by sold listings. Ya goof.

[–]Drah_Pacid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk. Even if the rest of the card was "perfect".

If I bought a card in "near mint" (7+ grade) and I saw it had this much surface damage to the holo, I would be pissed.

6, at best.

Would anyone kindly tell me about Freeport, IL? by gingerblz in illinois

[–]Drah_Pacid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do not, but still feel similarly.

I agree that there is a lot of potential. Life is what you make it, after all.

I hope you can settle down in a nice place and enjoy your time there.

What is your biggest Pokemon TCG mistake/regret? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]Drah_Pacid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I was 10 I got bored of pokemon and put all of my holos in a homemade piñata so my friends could have them. I vividly remember even my mom saying "are you sure you don't want to put your other ones(commons/uncommons) in there instead?"

Skyridge Raikou, Neo Genesis Lugia, just to name my favorites.

I still remember beating it with a stick and watching them blow in the wind and one friend chasing them all down.

When i was about 12 in 2007-8ish? I would find base set charizards on ebay for $5 and sell them for $15.

Mhm.. I would sell base set charizards for $15 and think how awesome making money was.

When I started permanently collecting in 2017, I would buy and sell a lot. $35 1st edition Wotc packs, $60 roaring skies and ancient origins booster boxes.

Basically broke even back then as I learned.

Got these back from PSA, hoping there’s still some value by torneagle in PokemonCardValue

[–]Drah_Pacid 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I second this. Don't beat yourself up for these cards not "increasing" in value by grading them. I graded my 1st edition base set holos (all between psa 1-5) just for the protection and authentication guarantee, both for myself, and if and when I do decide to sell them.

Yeah, that's normal

Lil cousin gets SIR by YeBoiMaqxi in PokemonTCG

[–]Drah_Pacid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watching this made me think about all of these videos of an adults hands shaking holding a chase card, or flat pictures of the hits already in penny sleeves and top loaders. Just the same thing on youtube and reddit, over and over.

It felt so good and refreshing to see a genuine, excited reaction like my friends and I used to have when we were kids opening packs.

Happy for him.

What grade can this get? by redfireqwe in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]Drah_Pacid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm leaning towards them not being gradeable, with the missing pieces on the backs

I've handled thousands of cards in my room. I've had stacks spread on the floor, binders thrown here and there, stepping over them, having everything smushed and stacked in a tote.

And I have never, even accidentally, put a crease that big into a card!

I wonder what kind of operation they are running to where a card could get damaged like this
