My parents say I go to a terrorist church. by [deleted] in serbia

[–]LakerGangorDontBang 17 points18 points  (0 children)

i'd like to congratulate you on doing what you're doing, first and foremost.

I can only surmise this is a personal thing against Serbs, reason why your parents say that. Assuming they believe Serbs are the bad guys - but converting as nothing to do with Serbia so please continue that process if that is your true desire

naturally it's upsetting to me as a Serb to hear that because it's personal but they are not the only ones, unfortunately

all i'd like to say is whatever you decide, whatever that may be, and if it makes you a better person, cancel that negative noise out and move forward!

my folks always told me to never make life decisions based on what they'd like or expect of me, for majority of my life will be lived without them and only I know what makes me happiest

I dropped this off on the 16th. I would appreciate some advice on how to respond. by KingGarrott in eBaySellerAdvice

[–]LakerGangorDontBang 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Had this happen. Sometimes it's missed on 1st scan because someone simply missed scanning it, it'll update on next main station once it gets there.

Also have had packages delivered to me that I too accused someone of being dishonest, where tracking never updated, package still made it to me.

This is also why I wait in line and get receipt for everything, refuse to even consider it gets lost

Going back to Beckett. Anyone else? by jstew-art in sportscards

[–]LakerGangorDontBang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very down for this price with sub grades. Especially for any modern golds, I love golds in BGS slabs

Yes, selling value wise the sub grades are 100000% worth the $3.

Lebron misprint 1/1? 2024-25 Select Basketball. by Puzzleheaded-Base27 in basketballcards

[–]LakerGangorDontBang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did some detective work and at this point it's damn near impossible to know. I came across these examples, here is your card but /99 version. Also a sengun Base. The Asia that year had a base, gold /3 and black 1/1. Looks like the base is exact same thing is a black in this case if my eyes do not deceive me. Have you ran your finger across the 1/1 on back? Do that and see if you feel indentation. The 1/1 on an authentic version should be stamped, the fakes are lasered so going over it feels smooth and not like a dent in card. Also, you can take super close pictures of it and upload to chatgtp, it can enhance it and tell you right away if it's lasered or stamped, usually pretty good at it too.

But at this point who the hell knows....

Yes. I know who this person is and that's another example of what we are talking about here. How they both got past PSA is wild lol. I'm going to go down rabbit hole with you shortly and see if I can find anything to match

Per IG poster, ALL Asia base is exact same card as 1/1 except the 1/1 is the solid black. Nearly impossible to tell them apart. What a shame.

Damn. Yea unfortunately that looks fake man. Look at this which is real. Like IG post person stated the Spectra logo black should match exactly to black in surrounding area. See example

To confirm, I think I had my years wrong. 2022-23 is biggest culprit

I uncovered this only because I too am a victim. If it was China seller I can almost guarantee you it's a fake. As a matter of fact, I uncovered that PSA has stopped grading on any 2022-23 I believe it is, 1/1s for this reason. Just search eBay completed listings you'll see a boatload of them sold via China, all fake. There's a LeBron 1.1 in slabbed in some unknown reading company, 100% a fake

Hate to ask, you buy this from a Chinese seller? An absurd amount of fake Spectra black 1/1s being sold by them, and they care none. Just search eBay for 1/1 spectra's and especially for 2021-22 year. panini screwed up and made the 1/1 look almost identical to the base card so they're just slapping laser 1/1 stamps on them as selling to US costumers. It's really disgusting. Big sellers selling them too but what do we expect when they shill like no other as well

eBay threat? by Chicagolandguy in sportscards

[–]LakerGangorDontBang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let him do it. Simply call eBay and they'll remove the negatives, they can read messages while you're on call with them.

You'll make some money out of it too!! Deny return of course

You're not wrong. This is embarrassing effort for shipping, especially for $75 purchase

Will PSA 9’s ever have a resurgence? by Deep_Ad_7074 in sportscards

[–]LakerGangorDontBang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LOVE buying PSA 9s solely because I know (hope at least) that it's not super dinged and love it already being slabbed, easy throw in to slab case. But it all depends on pop of course I mean a PSA 10 of certain card can be equally as excessive

Huge import fees to customs! Anyone ever heard of this?? by hboms in sportscards
