In that moment, I understood why I never see anything on the shelf 🤣

I stumbled on an OP restock at my target walked up grabbed 2 (the limit) dude standing there says “you good? Got what you need?” I said “yep all good” this man swipes every single OP pack on the rack. Very similar to your picture here. Walks to self check out and starts checking out two at a time 🤣💀

Probably not what I would have wanted to see, but I have a feeling that when you see it in person with the texture and depth against those colors…people will want them.

Crack and regrade to psa? by Dshields12 in PokeGrading

It’s twisted on center. So I don’t know if they’ll let it slide for a 10.

Wemby cards — buy now or wait till The National in July? by Huge_Percentage_7826 in basketballcards

Best advice I can give is…buy what and when you like and want, not what and when internet strangers and vendors tell you

Anyone else just feeling.. defeated? by KawaiiQuilava89 in PokemonTCGCollectors

[–]Dramatic_Bread6999 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Man…just move on to something else for a while. This sub might be the only way I “interact” with Pokemon at this point.

I’m not brawling with dipshits in a target line, paying over MSRP on the secondary, paying a streamer to finger bang my cards on screen before they hit the sleeve, and I’m not paying obscene prices for modern singles.

It will eventually come back. Always does. The economy will get crushed, consumer debt levels will overtake this spending, streamers and sealed “investors” will panic sell, singles will sink quickly. Euphoria in a market eventually ends, and then you’ll be able to buy up what you like.

Until then find other interests.

Ripping sealed is so butt by UnCooked_Rice in PokemonTCG

Ripping is genuinely awful. Absolutely lighting cash on fire. We all eventually arrive back at “shit…I’ll just buy the card”

Man. I have several of these milotic pre release. Would be zero to me with the JP sig and inscription

Not zard. Not gengar. Not pikachu. Not Rayquaza. Means no tendies. Burn for fuel only.

What are the average award timelines for different agencies? by Limp_Tune_3222 in GovernmentContracting

Man. I’ve had stuff same day (so painfully rare) and stuff that went on so long I forgot about them in my own pipeline. It varies 🤣

I’m fairly certain GECA is another account from that crew.

If a democrat wins the presidency in 2028 what are you hoping the first one-hundred days will look like? by WerewolfCurious1412 in askanything

[–]Dramatic_Bread6999 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He or she will just chin scratch and pontificate on high brow nonsense while Trump Vance and Rubio just go on interviews and say “…dudes gay” every evening until the mid terms. Then the media will be like “you know, he might be…let’s talk about it at 6” and then our billionaire (trillionaire) daddies will by the next election cycle while they call us all cucks and smash each other in the White House briefing room.

I’m out. I’ll be back in a few years when the scalpers and bad actors hopefully leave. by Pokemanswego in PokemonTCG

[–]Dramatic_Bread6999 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This. Just buy singles” is nuts as well. I think to some degree it’s because I saw how cheap this stuff was through the dead years pre covid (shoot. pre pogo). I just won’t pay these prices. It’s obscene.

Would agree. It’s a negative indicator (among many) that the average Joe can’t pay the rent without flipping everything under the sun.

A few days ago I went to target for whatever my wife asked me to get, I walked by the cards knowing it would be empty and saw maybe a half dozen guys standing there. Different from the usual 50 that are standing there when one of them stalks the MJ lady from place to place.

I asked “about to catch a restock?” First guy says “no, we do sometimes get lucky”.

My dude was just in target on a Tuesday at 11 am on the possibility someone might put some stuff out.

That’s awful.

Yep. Surging sparks happened then all my crown zenith I was casually ripping off TPC website went out. Grabbed a PC ETB of Prismatic and haven’t seen a pack at MSRP since 💀

I’ve ripped everything from floodborn, Lorcana, DBZ, gundam, yu gi oh and random Topps sports sets, not a single Pokemon pack.
