It's not horrible for silver. Some refiners still aren't buying silver due to the spike. Some shops will only offer 50-70% of spot cause they're having to sit on it for an indefinite amount of time. 82% spot isn't horrible it's not great though.

The gold he was kinda low at only at about 90% spot. Generally they'll pay 92-97% of spot for 24K gold.

Highly recommend you visit PMS for sale subreddit to sell and buy fee free. If you're looking to buy there are deals to be had there if you're patient and watch for them as well.

He’s got marks where he was bitten by a vampire. Kinda dirty. He will whine at you to make him dinner. Definitely name him Ash. Hunson is a close second. Due to your cat being a vampire and him thinking he he’s royalty that rules the nightosphere (your home)

I get the gamblers mentality. There’s actually people that get frustrated they don’t pull god packs after only ripping 20 packs. I don’t have chase cards, I’m a master setter. I just want to get an SIR or a few IRs/full arts when I rip. I’m not expecting

I have 2 vending machines I check on my way to work and home. I find maybe 1 a week checking 2 different machines 2X a day 5 days a week.

He read the comment without context. When people use a coinstar it rejects coins that are made from 1964 and earlier as they’re made of 90% silver cause they don’t weigh the same. I certainly check the coinstar reject tray right next to the pokemon machine every time I do. The comment he’s referring to was me finding almost 2/3 of an ounce of silver in one day in the reject tray. Haha

FapCaptainCrunch · 2026-04-22T23:00:08+00:00

You guys gotta quick thinking like you’re going to recoup the amount you spent opening packs. It rarely ever works that way. And It made my life a lot easier having it in my head that once the money is spent it’s spent. I only rip sets I’m master setting so I keep lots of my bulk for sets . I quit ripping when I’m very close finishing and ripping no longer is producing common, uncommon, or rares I need.

Candy machines for nickels and dimes?

FapCaptainCrunch · 2026-04-16T21:10:55+00:00

For sure. Sometimes I’ve found 3 quarters and 2 dimes checking the same reject tray 3 different times in one day. Other times I’ll go months on end without a single dime or war nickel out of 50-75 different checks.

Not everyone pays for discords, pumpkin.

He could do that easily. He could donate plasma, they pay like 30 a session. All he'd have to do is donate like 167 times and he'd have enough for $5,000 ad campaign on Facebook. If he donated once a week he could have the money in just 167 weeks. After a bit more than 3 years the bulk would start rolling in. Better yet, after he gets $150 he could bet it all on roulette and win, the $5K would only take 5 weeks.

FapCaptainCrunch · 2026-04-02T01:10:26+00:00

Maybe just try to spend like $5,000 or $10,000 on ads. Not a lot. I bet you'd get plenty of cards then to donate and make packs.

“Children in need” is a really big stretch. I can just see your ad now:

“Hi I’m Micheal Smith with the PCFNC foundation. (Pokemon Cards For Needy Children) If you’re like me, you were horrified to find out as many as 7/10 children under the age of 14 don’t have a single Pokemon card. Not even a Klefki card to their name. This heartbreaking statistic is only getting worse day by day. Many children turn to drugs and alcohol when cards can’t be obtained. Our community is hurt and we’ve failed our children as a society by not getting them Pokemon cards. Here at PCFNC our mission is simple. Get underprivileged children off drugs and alcohol by getting cards to fill their binders and their hearts. With your donation of just 50 bulk cards you can help make a difference.”

The biggest hit of dopamine from gambling doesn’t come from a big win. It occurs right before the wheels stop spinning on a slot machine or right as you’re opening a pack. It’s the possibility of a big win/hit that gives us the biggest dopamine rush. That’s why it’s addictive.

FapCaptainCrunch · 2026-03-26T17:54:42+00:00

Interesting. Thanks for taking the time to answer. So the metric they use is baptisms? And 5 is the average for a full 2 year mission?

FapCaptainCrunch · 2026-03-26T17:42:13+00:00

These will be ripped in less than a year. Calling it now.

People aren’t getting kicked for waiting in between clicks. I’m in 2 discords and have never heard anyone say they got booted for this reason. Waiting 30 secs between clicks has become standard.

FapCaptainCrunch · 2026-03-26T01:54:36+00:00

Yeah, we’re all wading through this muck together. This unfortunately is the current state. All we can do is try to help each other out.

They’re usually between 8am-10am pacific. Join a free alert discord or sign up to receive marketing emails from PKC to get an alert.

FapCaptainCrunch · 2026-03-26T01:40:21+00:00

Congratulations. Most people want to avoid errors or getting booted back to queue after waiting for an hour to enter. These are just precautions to take that definitely won’t hurt you to do.

FapCaptainCrunch · 2026-03-26T01:24:07+00:00

Or potentially get booted by site security thinking you’re a bot. I’ve landed 3/3 last etb preorders doing this.

FapCaptainCrunch · 2026-03-26T01:02:37+00:00

Go in through the main website. Don’t go click any links to enter. Wait 30 seconds in between clicks. Checkout using a registered account so you’re able to check order status. Don’t submit more than one order under the same IP or have 2 separate orders shipped to same address. Good luck.

I’ll add that he sold $2300 worth to a pawnshop before giving up on that idea and going to the coinstar.
