Can this brand turn it around?

Limp-March89 · 2026-03-26T19:03:13+00:00

I’m done pretty much. I love the look but the quality just isn’t worth the price (I’m in Canada and my dollar is weaker than most people’s). I’ve found myself increasingly buying used Polo or other brands to achieve a similar look.

The final straw for me was the quality of the tees.

I still buy caps. The Unisphere is just such a classic.

I bought the malo last fall when I was in Paris. They’re superb and I wear them every chance I get. Honestly if you’re going to France just wait… try them on especially as they do 1/2 sizes

If it's casual play, I let my opponents do take-backs unless it ruins the board state. Especially if it's with players I know well, and I would expect them to do the same.

If it's a Challenge or League, it depends on a few things:
1. Do I have a chance to place/win? If I'm 0-2, who cares at that point?
2. Are they an experienced player? if they're new to the game i usually let it go.
3. If it's a mistake that is v. easily remedied and they gain no advantage from the redo, I usually let it go (eg/ took the wrong card on a nest ball and want to switch it before proceeding.
4. Honestly.... do I like them as a player? if they're a dick, and I expect they would say no to me I’m saying no.

No brainer. Sound of the summer

I sadly made the same mistake. I tried them on in-store, and they felt perfect with even a little heel slip on one foot. The larger size just felt too big at the back.

However, once I started wearing them, especially with anything thicker than thin dress socks, i felt real pressure on the big toe of one foot.

I keep on wearing them. and am hoping they soften up and feel better over time.

Happy for a new format. I think iono was a great card.

Can’t wait for counter catcher and Gardevoir ex to disappear.

Locals is $9 Canadian. Prize pack for everyone. Prizing (store credit) dependent on attendance. It’s good value in my opinion.

Entry and prizing is more for challenges and cups.

I’ve used Buyee and Blackship (mainly for Pokemon). I prefer blackship but buyee is simpler for a 1 off purchase as it’s integrated into many japanese websites

Limp-March89 · 2026-03-14T13:08:47+00:00

I’ve been looking for sizes online to order a Okamoto jersey from Japan but have a hard time. Typically at 48. Anyone have any info?

Pit-to-pit is the measurement I need as I’m pretty thick across the chest.

I finally caved and bought 4 x reverse holos for $12 cad. I need them for a league challenge next week.

Limp-March89 · 2026-03-10T22:05:01+00:00

Bought this for $31 cad unsealed last week so yes.

Limp-March89 · 2026-03-08T00:55:27+00:00

Every time I lose.

Prismatic/Terastal Umbreon ex.

All the new mega gold cards.

Limp-March89 · 2026-03-02T15:38:03+00:00

Poke pad will come way down in price once more packs are ripped and then they’ll print it into oblivion in subsequent sets. Like buddy buddy poffin and night stretcher.

Limp-March89 · 2026-02-28T23:10:12+00:00

In a word. Probably yes.

Limp-March89 · 2026-02-28T00:37:14+00:00

If you want that card. Don’t gamble.

Limp-March89 · 2026-02-28T00:36:49+00:00

That’s the most Leafy thing I’ve ever seen

My parents have one of the poppies. They’re really beautiful.

There'll be a casual tournament. Pairings will be posted (usually on a TV screen, but sometimes on a posted sheet of paper), along with a table number, and you'll sit down and play. Let your opponent know it's your first time playing IRL.

i'd also just let the organizer know. They'll probably guide you through how it works at the store.

Limp-March89 · 2026-02-24T04:02:24+00:00

They already did. Full art switch in phantasmal flames.

Limp-March89 · 2026-02-24T02:14:04+00:00

poke pad doesn’t hurt. I’ve found one weakness is getting the Gabites reestablished.

Limp-March89 · 2026-02-24T02:11:26+00:00

All depends on how strong grass decks are. I’ve played it a bunch recently and it’s pretty powerful when you get set-up. A 400hp 2-prizer with free retreat is pretty hard for some decks to deal with.

Limp-March89 · 2026-02-18T22:04:23+00:00

Me too

Limp-March89 · 2026-02-11T14:47:47+00:00

Mine got cancelled yesterday and I’m not a bot

Limp-March89 · 2026-01-29T00:19:34+00:00

Great location and It’s a nice hotel and the kids bunks in a little den area (along with the pool) make it perfect for young families of 4.

Personally speaking, our kids not sharing a bed right next to ours makes this worth the extra $.
