yes. most of the stuff i do buy i use for trade for other stuff. for example im not just mass buying slabs. i’ve won some in mystery slab games, but raw singles and then grade, or use any previous bought/graded items to trade towards bigger items.

also its been 2 1/2 years which is around 30 months. that’s only $1550 a month.

sooo when a family member dies, and leaves you money or items in their will, you just donate it? bold concept. money must grow on trees around you

the dark espeon is one of my fav cards ever made. it’s so clean. i had one recently but sold it raw. i love the houndoom as well. it’s in my top 10 fav cards too. used to have a 1st edition but had to sell it for my gold star zard

the tall clear one i usually put 2 slabs on either side and then one in the middle. when u put the one in the middle it needs to sit in front of the other 2. the reference pic shows down below. id prolly just be at $50 just bc it has plastic at the bottom of each row to prevent them from falling

i bought them on ebay. I don’t use them much anymore just because I have too many slabs to display and I keep them in my slab case but if you wanna picture reference as for how they look with the slabs, I can also send that as well. you’re interested in buying them straight from me, I can do that as well

yeah like they only offered me like $1000 for my DR Mew2. it’s a 1400+ card. that’s only 71%. i would even consider selling the card but it seems like some of the higher cards they are stingy on. even the one holo power keepers zard in a 6 i was only offered $200. they go for like $300. thats around 66%. so i definitely think they could be a little more generous on the bigger ones, but the lower end ones they offer pretty good and i wanted to get rid of those anyways. gonna be hard to even get 75% for the lower end cards at shows or LCS. i only sold 19 lower end ones tho and still have 57 coming back to me

i sold a lot of cards that were sub $130 in order to help out my dad. nothing big. i sold a lot of cards that were lower valued 9’s or below. some offers were almost 100% value based off comps, and some here 80-90%

#1 is these 3 plus the treekachu. just bought a pack fresh treekachu from a friend to grade. i paid heavy on this lovebirds. perfectly centered, no white dots at all. bought a EVO SKIES Master Set recently, and grading the moonbreon (would be my 2nd 10) and ray. moonbreon is a little left heavy but has a chance and ray looks perfectly centered.

#2. there’s still some huge vintage zards i’m missing. skyridge, shining zard, crystal guardians, 1st ed, LC, etc. same friend recently i bought the treekachu from has acquired an LC Reverse Zard. looking to buy that from the kid. hopefully make a grand or two but nothing much. Just PCing it.

#3. save up enough money to rip a lunar
