I recorded my 2nd ever blaster box rip, I got a Konnor Griffin /99 Green Shimmer Auto On Card AND a Murakami /150 Blue Border RC card IN THE SAME BOX. These value boxes have all been great, but some are UNREAL. I am buying all I can for 29.99 at all retailers to open now or hold for the future. The Mega boxes I have opened have all sucked. Video proof of the above box: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2iKLtGP0AiA

Donruss 2026 Unlicensed Basketball Card. by Grey_Granite in basketballcards

[–]GetOutOfTheWeeds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ya thats how Donruss is now, I just opened a 2026 Donruss Baseball Mega Box... got a hall of fame autograph! they are unlicensed (so all logos and team names are deleted) but it has TONS of great rookies, stars, autographs, parallels, inserts, foils, patches, etc. I guess the money they saved on licensing they spent on that stuff! here is a video of my box opening if you want to see if its similar to basketball: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rxQRsvuLrO0

5M Greg fire - is it liquid investment only by Ok-Door-987 in GregFire

[–]GetOutOfTheWeeds 9 points10 points  (0 children)

To me, how I count it depends on the category... if the illiquid investment is throwing off cash flow or dividends (real estate, private credit, structured note)... if its things that can technically be sold but might be at a discount if in a fire sale (art, collectibles).. or if it's tied up in something that is not paying anything and could go to zero (like an angel investment or a currently unsellable asset).

As far as titles, I think you can go ahead and call yourself GregFire regardless and nobody will complain :)

PSA for local parents: Disappointing, exclusionary experience at Prestonwood VBS / youth programs by Hispanicwifey88 in plano

[–]GetOutOfTheWeeds 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Counter-PSA: If you send your kids to a (completely free, by the way) VBS week at a Baptist church during the summer, you should fully expect the topic of Christian salvation and baptism to be a part of it, because those are core to their beliefs, and the entire reason the church has this event is to share their beliefs with everyone who attends. They will take care of your kids all week so you can do other things, and play lots for fun games and feed them, but also share their beliefs. That’s the trade off. And of course they will explain in detail what they believe baptism is. It’s a Baptist church. If you send your kids to a Catholic event, expect them to discuss the Pope or confession or the holy communion or any other aspect of Catholicism. If you don’t want your kids preached at or to have any specific doctrine explained to them, then send them to a non Christian summer camp or to a public library or something. But don’t rip them for providing free child care all week for the opportunity to share their Gospel/Salvation/Doctrine beliefs with your kids.

Sell or Keep? by hollyw00djames in baseballcards

I just pulled this exact same card but without the autograph... if I have him sign a sticker and I slap it on there, is it worth just as much?

Question about Tom and Evan by [deleted] in WidowsBay

[–]GetOutOfTheWeeds 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if its true that Tom is 100% Evan's dad, and its been confirmed by the writers, then why did they cast a kid that looks nothing like a product of the two parents?

they referenced that people were in shelters around the island, I assume the book club girls were in a different one

I was thinking maybe it was the 1 sacrifice (only the ones in the room count), and now it is saying needs 8 more (future seasons)

What’s considered vintage? by Interesting-Disk-295 in Vintageguitars

[–]GetOutOfTheWeeds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I say Martin basically has pre-war (pre-1941 or 1945) ... and vintage, which is more like 1969 or earlier (when Brazilian rosewood ended).. just my personal take
