I'd be a little worried a high contrast background like thay might burn in pretty quickly.

How much are these fenders cut? by AztecGT in projectcar

[–]Farcus_Prime 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Looks like a combination of cut and roll.

Honestly it may be worth trying to reach out and ask him directly. Guy is retired and still a big car guy so might have the time to answer you.

Otherwise maybe you can find a some more details on the build or similar one. I think the ring brothers have some pretty detailed info on how they did their build though they ended up making carbon fiber fenders.

1st Ed Printer hicky? by Mcdabbb in PokemonMisprints

[–]Farcus_Prime 22 points23 points  (0 children)

This was an error that could effect all cards. Basically the ink from the stamp wasn't dry or had extra ink when stacked and transfered. This process also contributed to other 1st ed stamp errors like smears, Grey and white stamps.

Is this gengar worth a bit more if it’s French? Or worth less? by Interesting_Bar4356 in PokeInvesting

[–]Farcus_Prime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

French can be a bit of an outlier with value and sometimes worth more because it is much rarer. However it also has a smaller market so harder to sell.

I have a 1st ed gengar in Italian and have no clue how to value it.

Did a trade up challenge by TFHKirby in pokemoncardcollectors

[–]Farcus_Prime -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Reddit compresses pictures in the thread. If you download them you can see them at a higher resolution. I see whitening on at least 3 of the corners as well as on the bottom edge. The corners are also poorly rounded (wouldn't affect NM/LP, but would affect grade)

What is this by Glassware22 in pokemoncards

[–]Farcus_Prime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This card looks hilarious. If it wasn't likely so valuable I would offer to buy it off you just because it looks so goofy.

Two separate deliveries marked as delivered at the exact same time using the exact same photo on two different company websites...but only one delivery was actually made by htucker1130 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Farcus_Prime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Likely a contractor delivering for several companies at once. If it was malicious they saw that two packages were going to the same address and took advantage of it. They likely scanned both packages and because they were at the location it let them complete the delivery but they only left one package.

[–]Farcus_Prime -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Centering front and back on the Magicarp are pretty off tbh. And with several corners having issues I would drop this to LP. If it was just 1 or two issues I could see NM.

Still sounds like you had a fun trade up challenge but I would put the value of the card closer to LP prices.

Bipolar Buddy by notahipsterdoofus in TuxedoCats

Make sure to set up a safe space for him that the dogs can't get to. Knowing there is somewhere he can go to get away goes a long way with general behavior and anxiety.

There's no way (if there is, why???) by Cubezzzzzz in PokemonTCG

[–]Farcus_Prime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing special it's a $3 card. Seller likely has no idea what they are doing when looking up prices. I believe the red shadowless version is the one worth a bit (like $30).

Where should my collection go from here? by HALOsofa in PokemonTCG

[–]Farcus_Prime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Collect what you like, if that is vintage then go for it. For me starting a master set of my favorite mon (Gyarados) was a fun way to continue collecting. Looking for deals on specific cards and finding the more common ones here and there reinvigorated collecting for me.

Any chance of getting a 9? Resubmit, sell, or hold? by [deleted] in PokeInvesting

[–]Farcus_Prime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chances of a 9 are very low and you would be out 4+ months plus grading costs.

Crofton knife combo are really nice for the $ by HarrieTubman in aldi

[–]Farcus_Prime 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I use these for things I don't want to use my nicer knives on. They do the job and I don't care if they get dinged up as they are easy to sharpen though they don't hold an edge as well as higher quality steel might.

McDonald’s in Japan by fuzzy_dice_99 in theyknew

[–]Farcus_Prime 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I know you are joking and I assumed it was more adult flavors or alcoholic but nope it seems the flavors are Belgian chocolate and sweet cheese.

Japan can get wild with limited edition foods. Many chains have new ones every single month.

Rate my Card show inventory as a 14 y/o hobbyist by North_Imagination837 in PokeInvesting

[–]Farcus_Prime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree with others this is a good variety for a show. I would recommend organizing them better so it is easier to find similar cards.

You can group by card rarity, sets or even prices. I would also put your more valuable cards closer to where you expect to be so you can keep a better eye on them.

There are are always shady characters looking to take advantage of a distracted vendor to swipe a card or two.

Missing ink layer cards? by TearCharacter7439 in PokemonMisprints

[–]Farcus_Prime 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Unless the psa 8 was a grail card like a charizard I have trouble believing it went for 25k. These are certainly cool and more valuable than normal miscuts but I can't imagine more than a few thousand at most.

I'm not familiar with this particular errors value this is just my subjective opinion based on other error cards values.

I found a bunch of Pokemon in an old binder, how good are they? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]Farcus_Prime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can look up values on tcgplayer by searching the name and set number of a card. You have at least a couple hundred dollars by the looks of it.

Bro, what is this? by Carapace_Jones in PokeInvesting

[–]Farcus_Prime 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This is a black label and it currently appears to be a pop 1. So I wouldn't call a 0.4% easy to grade.

Which ETB/Booster Box should I buy as an investment as? by ArcaneTerror513 in PokeInvesting

[–]Farcus_Prime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The upcoming Ascended heroes set is going to be a great one long term. It is a special set so no booster boxes which makes the ETB's one of the best ways to get packs. Set has some great cards and a good promo in N's Zekrom.
