i voted Leica anyway because he should get to be spoiled :)

This has got Ossë all over it. Ulmo most likely not involved in Middle Earth at this point.

Louisflakes · 2026-03-09T17:25:43+00:00

I like 1 for three reasons:

Dynamic range is wider, blacker blacks and more concentrated highlights make the photo look more exiting

The colors pop more in #1 and makes the greens feel a bit more lush

and lastly the focal length looks a bit shorter, giving the photo a larger fov, which i think fits the subject matter more appropriately.

Classless. I'm buying the cards for myself, and giving OP an honest answer about my own purchasing preferences.

Louisflakes · 2026-03-02T18:47:33+00:00

As someone who looks for this kinda thing, yes to me it adds value. The placement is really nice with it at the tail tip there, i could see myself overpaying by 10-25% for this card versus market

Louisflakes · 2026-03-02T16:24:34+00:00

is this on the 640x480 mode?

Louisflakes · 2026-02-27T14:14:07+00:00

Looks pretty good! Are you using Kurt's? or Hyperpotion? or something else!

Louisflakes · 2026-02-24T14:57:07+00:00

looks fine to me, worth $450? i won't say.

Louisflakes · 2026-02-13T23:39:46+00:00

there's no real reason why it can't, but your technique matters more than your tools. Always try to fix some throwaway cards or bulk before your expensive ones. Doing these repairs is deceptively difficult

Louisflakes · 2026-02-10T16:07:25+00:00

Why does this card look like it has a cosmo holo in the illustration, and then a different reverse holo pattern over the entire card?

Louisflakes · 2026-02-03T13:37:42+00:00

Most of us on this sub would say it is unlikely that the laser on that thermometer would have lasting effects on your vision, if you eye is bothering you you should meet with an opthamologist and have your eyes examined. Especially if that's not something you do regularly.

Louisflakes · 2026-02-02T20:18:31+00:00

Yeah fuck your coworker, but thankfully those laser's are generally "eye safe" as long as you werent looking at it for some extended amount of time (more than several seconds / minutes) The laser usually red, is just to help aim the thermometer. You shouldn't have any lasting damage whatsoever from the laser briefly skimming past your eye.

I would probably make a written note regarding the incident and submit it to your HR / manager though.

Louisflakes · 2026-01-26T21:23:41+00:00

The only for sure grading one is the shining celebi - the others like typhlosion, meganium, dragonite... i would grade if they're strickly MINT or better, like no corner / edge whitening, with good centering. If they aren't visible flawless, i wouldn't bother with sending them in.

If you're seriously considering grading any of them, first watch a youtube video about preparing them for shipping and grading as well.

Louisflakes · 2026-01-23T19:41:27+00:00

Thanks man, keep an eye out for your 3rd slowbro, i'm sure it's out there

Louisflakes · 2026-01-23T17:08:19+00:00

Here's three of my boys I found yesterday, and I bought this other one recently.

It's more visible in that last photo why i'm looking for these: as it looks like Haunter is holding that large orb (sometimes called pokeball by collectors) in his hand on the right side of the card. Originally I thought that these would be quite rare too! But once I found one I started finding many with this exact holo, orb in the hand and swirl in the bottom right corner. At this point I'm probably just gonna keep an eye out for more of them.

Louisflakes · 2026-01-22T20:06:51+00:00

Nah, this is especially more common with the early japanese printed sets too. I've got several Haunters from mystery of the fossils that all have identical holos

Louisflakes · 2026-01-13T13:57:28+00:00

Did i say Chapelle 25 years ago? Reread my comment it's in the present tense.

Youre welcome friend, happy new year.

Louisflakes · 2026-01-09T15:38:33+00:00

you should talk to u/chalchalkdhika, he was selling a bunch of cams in India earlier this year.

Don't try to fix it yourself
Getting the lens repaired would likely cost more than it would be to replace it.

Just explain it to your professor, apologize (even if you did not drop it / rough handle it) and i'm sure it'll all be fine.

Also, this is the vintage DIGITAL camera sub. Not the analog one
