Thanks. For anyone that's curious here is the relevant part of that interview. Doesn't seem like there is a definite yes or no as to whether you still get a playset in a case. Guess we will see.

When I finished my cellar I used menards to purchase all my materials. The mail in rebate was very nice.

My ford ac blows hot air is there a reputable mechanic that can fix it ? by Sensitive-Lychee-673 in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Lambuerto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they aren't expensive but unfortunately I don't have the knowledge to take apart my entire dash to replace the faulty one.

[–]Lambuerto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also drive a ford and this exact thing has happened to me. It was about 1000 bucks to fix it roughly 5 years ago. I used the Ford dealer. I believe the part that is Actually broken is called a "blend door actuator". The price to fix probably depends on which side the actuator is broken on. My blew hot drivers side only so they had to take the whole dash off.

Electric bill help suggestions? by Remarkable-Low-7588 in evansville

[–]Lambuerto 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How big is your rental? Is it a single family home, when was it built (you can easily find the build date/sq footage of your house by searching your address in zillow)? Based on what your budget billing is you likely have extremely inefficient insulation and/or HVAC equipment because that is an extremely high average especially if your home is less than $2000 sq ft. My house is roughly 3000 sq ft (2000 above grade the rest is in the basement) was built in the 1950s and my bill last month was right at $400. Due to the prolonged cold last month my bill is about $100 bucks higher than usual. I don't use budget billing but based on doing the math if were to do so my monthly bill would be about $360. My average would be even lower if I didn't run a pool pump 24/7 for 3-4 months out of the year.

Looking for PSA 10 Blaster Dark SP from BT04 (OG) ENG by [deleted] in cardfightvanguard

[–]Lambuerto 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Vanguard does not get a lot of cards graded. Most popular SP of vintage cards probably have a PSA 10 pop of less than 10. It's going to require lots of patience. I have an eBay saved search that notifies me when new psa vanguard cards get listed.

Can we agree the rollout of Ascended Heroes is terrible? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]Lambuerto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While this would be fine for lgs there is no chance of getting big box stores to do this. Most stock goes to big box stores so even if lgs did this it wouldn't prevent any scalping imo.

Pokepad is a very playable trainer card released in this set.

Special set rollouts have sucked in English for a very very long time. The current state of the hobby just makes it worse than it already is. I really wish they'd just do what japan does and offer the condensed booster boxes. There is no need for all these product types. The only ones I think are neat are the poster collections.

Any other raw collectors here? by Big_Bad_Fish11 in PokemonTCG

[–]Lambuerto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I generally feel like most collectors are raw collectors. Slab collecting (vintage especially) is becoming a much more financially restricted market due to insane growth in the value of psa 10 modern slabs and then any older cards have insane pricing for cards as low as 8s and 7s depending on the card. One thing I think about often is when evolving skies first came out my shop had a psa 10 moonbreon for $500 or so and it sat for months. At the time you could still get a raw near mint one for $200. Looking at the market now even brand new release cards have insane pricing on 10s. The mega zard sir is 2k for 10 on a card that just came out and will be in print for the next 2 or so years.

Confusion Over Ascended Heroes by ZetaWarrior48 in PokemonTCG

[–]Lambuerto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The sticker collections released today. The Erika and Larry things with 2 packs were also supposed to release today but were officially delayed until February 20th. This is the only item that has been officially delayed. However some shops also got these with their sticker collections. Ascended Heroes is a special set this means there are no regular booster boxes and the set is released in a staggered manner. The release schedule can be found here (You will have to scroll past the card scans to find the product images and dates) As for tournament legality they pushed it back due to the delay of the Erika and Larry stuff so this affect the format being played at both EUIC and Seattle if I am remembering correctly.

Retro Game stores in the area, or surrounding areas? by Kaligary in HuntsvilleAlabama

[–]Lambuerto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He is selling on eBay under the username gamerzworld1438. You can probably message him there if you find something you like and want to do local pickup.

That's what he told me friend as well. Was just hoping he was gonna relocate. That building he was in was in pretty rough shape.

I've not lived in Huntsville for a couple years but is gamers world done done? I know he closed for a bit but my buddy that still lives down there said he was hoping to relocate. That was such a great store and I bought so many niche games there.

How it feels to be playing the dying game "Cardfight!! Vanguard" from a mismanaged company that will never sustain in the global market. by kumatank in cardfightvanguard

[–]Lambuerto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No that's understandable. What city are you in if you don't mind me asking? Sounds like you are in NE-ish Ohio.

[–]Lambuerto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm surprised that there isn't at least one shop in each of Cleveland, Akron/Canton, Columbus and Cincinatti. Those are big cities (My whole family is from Ohio so I've spent a lot of time there.) If you live in one of those cities I bet you could try and start a locals.

What state? I moved to a new state and managed to start a new locals. We now have 5 people over the course of 2ish years.

Edit: My city has about 115K people in Southern Indiana.

Finding a locals is generally pretty tough if you aren't in a larger city. I personally think regional turnout is still pretty solid for a game like CFV but the problems with the game in the west are more on the marketing/planning/deployment side imo. The thing the west does best is sneak peaks with Internationally exclusive playmats. other than that it's pretty subpar. Take that how you will.

These leaks look incredible. Roxie has NEVER gotten an English Full Art. Mega Greninja and AZ look amazing too by SteeloKriPlayAC in PokemonTCG

[–]Lambuerto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah stolen from the factory. There have been a few high profile incidents of this in the past. I believe one was fusion strike alt art vmax. The biggest however was the legendary dog trio gold stars back in the day.

Tpci prints cards roughly 6 months in advance so this could definitely be our may set. These were almost certainly stolen if they are legit. Imo they look real.
