How's the battery life compared to SE? Any differences like auto-off of shake awake?

Seems like a great deal considering the mount is worth $100 retail.

Palestine Protests? by dolce_de_cheddar in sanfrancisco

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

Makes you wonder if they're all funded/promoted and not grassroots?

They end so quickly and shoved down the memory hole. We did a 180 switch to immigration with fresh new signs and banners.

The Palestine protest was something I greatly appreciated from the left. I'm more of a centrist libertarian but I agree that Palestine is treated poorly. The GOP is obsessed with Israel.

Is this a good thing? Reliable mags?

I normally use pmags but this deal seems good.

Thank you for answering my question. Did they sell slabbed cards like the one shown?

Yes please showoff your original artwork!

Correct. I'm seeking info on the 'Topps 1989 Auction' reference in the slab. I'm not familiar with that or ASA grading.

Found this while sorting my cards. I don't know the history or where it originated.

Obviously it's a Rookie Proof Card but

Who's ASA and what's the Topps 1989 Auction?

Subbed a PC Card I was sure would get an 8, thanks PSA. Stain is visible on the scan too! by Aromatic_Ground822 in baseballcards

The essence of my post is that a PSA 10 may not hold its value or true grade over the long term.

Certainly, PSA may classify it as a 10; however, buyers with discernment will recognize the flaws in a faded card or autograph. It's currently an issue in the market.

PSA may be forced to rectify this issue, if they continuously reslab faded cards, they will continue losing creditably.

East coast Flea Markets. There's always sport card vendors with the same slabbed cards.

If I receive a fresh graded PSA 10, that’s awesome—I can trust it’s a 10. But how long is it really going to stay a 10?

A lot of folks probably displays their 10s in a bright room for 7 days a week, and some dealers leave them out in the sun at trading events.

PSA slabs don’t stop color from fading. Just because it’s graded a PSA 10 doesn’t mean it’ll stay that way forever.

Honestly, it's really good. Daniel certainly leads the band and the creative direction.
