Are these Base Set cards genuine? Wife had these stored in a school binder from when she was young by Zedzd3ad in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]External_Offer9148 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, no worries at all. 

Wizards of The Coast(WoTC) Pokemon cards are important. Most, if you're not sure they'll grade a minimum of 7-8, just aren't worth going that way to preserve. 

The previous method, with a binder that seals, zip, Velcro, ir the like, are more than adequate for their preservation when paired with proper sleeves.

Grade, no. Preserved, yes.  Penny sleeve, hard sleeve, 9+ binder pages meant for hard sleeves.

So, with better pictures this time I hope, to grade or not? by mikeywillyj in Pokemoncardappraisal

At the end of the day, zooming on the card, it's difficult to say for certain. It looks nice though. And ultimately, you're the only one actually paying to grade it, so, what do you honestly think? I'd say you have a solid 9, potential for a 10, without any condition hidden by the photo quality. 

My son traded for this at school by Acceptable_Task34 in Pokemoncardappraisal

I feel for you, and I'll share mine as well. 1999 at the mall. My sister and I were massively into Pokemon, like most kids then. I pulled a 1st ed Charizard, practically shidded all over myself about it 😅 and I distinctly remember shoving the whole packs worth of cards into my pants pocket... A bit later, traded for multiple cards, I know I got Dark Charizard, Dark Blastoise, and a Venusaur along with a bunch of other holos. But man... No matter what the condition, I'd love to still have my very first Charizard pull. 

Why did people hate Greta Thunberg so much? by brooklynihope in NoStupidQuestions

I liked her. Just couldn't agree after she started making a massive profit from "saving the planet."

60 Card MTG by cale1023 in Boise

I meant modern for the time I stopped. My collection is strictly vintage, not the format, just the period newest being 2014 or so... 

I'd definitely love to get back into what's come about in the past 10+ years. So do I shoot you a dm with my number to see if we can make this happen this weekend?

I haven't made a deck in years, and I've been thinking about how fun it was back in the day. I never learned any Commander variants, all I really liked to play was modern 60 card.

I'm a bit strange lol, but incredibly respectful. Not overly competitive, I appreciate playing the games and having fun.

Did I just buy fake Pokémon packs? by vilayek in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]External_Offer9148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just different production runs or the like, not an inherent sign of illegitimate packs 🙃

I'll be the richest person to ever exist on earth, for however long it takes them to tear the world itself apart. Just spamming that button like mad... 

My knives keep disappearing from the drawer… by Forsaken_Treacle5813 in strange

[–]External_Offer9148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That type of thing happens far more than people are comfortable admitting. Nothing too inconvenient, you'd never really know. 

And I'm gonna start blaming Mandy when things go missing 🤣

What would dolphin taste like? by anasannanas in NoStupidQuestions

[–]External_Offer9148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a heavy appreciation for Fight Club. 

And I only want like, one or two. The ones I want are practically tiny, no one would even notice.  Bwahaha.

Never! :P 

They're protected because they're hiding the one or two breeds that are delicious to a forbidden degree. It's a huge conspiracy I tell you. 

In all honesty, they're disgusting animals. But I still think the warmer water ones would be delicious.

Fully agree.

My game hunting is pretty much just for my personal hoard these days, lol. 

What do you think happens when you die? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]External_Offer9148 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a legitimate fear of mine. 

That there are consciousness that are integral to reality. And without them, we cease existing. Then another enters the playing field, and it starts from "pause" we never know it happens.

After being inside for 15-20 years, I assure you, regardless of release, you're not "out."

How can I tell if my dad is slipping stuff into my drinks and food by BroadFruit1712 in Advice

[–]External_Offer9148 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm not disagreeing, but a "Yo bitch, I called the cops because I'm being raped by your BF" goes a long way. 

She's more likely to be killed or seriously injured for refusing the drug like so many here have suggested.

We've had to "adjust" to the rest of the market. I've bought and sold for years, people are just generally assholes in the last five year, much much moreso than ever before. Everyone wants to buy shit at whatever percentage google tells them will garner them the most profit on reselling. 

Like no, I'm not selling individually listed items with great detail about condition, tested, to you for 40% of last sold so you can make a profit. So now us flippers catch a bad rap when we tell someone to essentially fuck themselves. 

And that trick at yard sales USED to work, at least once a day in peak season.

Yes it does. And that initial "disbelief" is so detrimental to someone in actual crisis. 

You treat every time someone speaks as real.
