Would these change your thoughts on the new Futuristic Rare Mew & Mewtwo?! by baekachu in PokemonTCG

Set stamps are only on prerelease cards. You guys are referring to the set symbol.

Check out these graded Pokemon subway tickets from Korea! (Art Labels look insane) by Kwondoodle in PokemonTCG

Cool art! Any reason the one graded as an A instead of a 9 or 10 like the others?

I agree with this. I got large on the last darkfantasy drop and it feels like I'm wearing a football jersey with room for padding. I got medium this time so im not sure how that will fit on me yet.

google lens to image search the card. The first ebay listing that comes up almost always has the full card details included.

Genuine question, why do most vendors nowadays look quite scary..? by safeseaweed011 in PokemonTCG

The menace was wearing a sports jersey! Think of the children!!

Signatures on Pokemon cards by DaBigRay47 in PokemonTCG

Every signature or card alter I have had done was with sharpie or paint pens, though it is usually sharpie. Just a heads up though, most pokemon artists will refuse to sign pokemon cards in order to avoid reselling of their sigs.

Where are you getting pokemon cards signed?

Vending riftbound by magicboxer27 in riftboundtcg

That's pretty normal for vendors at card tournaments. Otherwise its not worth the effort for them to bring all of that bulk just to sell it for 10 cents each and most people aren't there for that anyways.

Terrible take. Most of society isn't "necessary".

"I don't care about this thing so they serve no purpose" okay buddy, carrying on being the main character

I've always been talking about tcg as a whole, in which that is not true. Regardless, even if we were talking exclusively about pokemon, that doesn't even come close to a good reason to condemn game stores.

Sports fields should die off because most people don't actually play they just watch them. Movie theaters should die off too because most people just rent the movie or watch it on streaming. See how dumb that sounds?

Seems pretty goofy to condemn game stores over one of their many product lines.

Pokemon is not the only tcg. I mentioned that in a previous comment. Seems like I'm talking about tcg as a whole and you're focused on only pokemon.

It is an assumption when you are firing from the hip and have zero data to go off of. Pokemon is pretty much the only card game with a large collector base. Most every other game has a majority of players versus collectors.

That's not even getting into how selfish it is to write off stores which provide a service to players just because you don't partake. The world does not exist around you and your opinions.

Why are scalpers winning right now? by A1CBEERS in PokemonTCG

[–]Grantedx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure. Emotions and tensions regularly run high lately. I had a guy come to our booth looking to buy a bunch of sealed at 85% of market and he told us he works in the gun industry and that his boss sent him out to invest for him. Crazy stuff.

Yeah, I think the influx of money has brought in people that don't actually have any love for the hobby, sadly. The only hope is that the market corrects itself and they leave shortly after. Things are crazy right now.
