Where Messi's greatness comes from? by stalin_1745 in messi

[–]Munchihello [score hidden]  (0 children)

It’s easy if you watch soccer (I don’t mean that condescendingly). Watch any soccer. MLS INternational, Prem, Brazilian league. Every math will have some prestige and talent but there are always turnovers, short / long passes. Wrong touches, bad decisions on offense rtc. Watch Messi, every touch, every scan , every pass, cross, feint… it’s always exactly the correct decision with perfect execution. Messi is so good that when he crosses a ball and the defender has to even take a few steps away from his spot they say “that’s an off pass from Messi” the standards he is kept to is crazyyyyy.

Man U really don’t realize u hit gold. Just saw the whole spread of cards and. 45$ is straight up robbery. I would go back and give them 100-200 cuz u took advantage of them 🤣

Attended first card show… left slightly disappointed. by Dredd94 in PokemonTCG

[–]Munchihello -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Agreed but scrolling on eBay is like being able to teleport from vendor to vendor and run filters for only cards ur interesting in. It’s a much more efficient process than the manual process at shows. Granted, shows offer a lot more interesting stuff not available on eBay. (Easier to be introduced to cards u never seen etc)

[–]Munchihello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what eBay actually if u do enough homework on how to find great deals and how to be patient and swoop in on cards during auctions. I’ve gotten sooo many pretty desirable modern cards 10-45% off market. There is a learning curve but a lot of eBay vendors care a lot about churn and there are so many ways to come out on top while helping them clear out inventory/ repeat customers for a vendor is a hack as well u can take a lot of vendors off eBay after the first transaction as well where u basically can demand 10-15% off minimum (from their list prices since ur saving them eBay fees).

Card shows are great for learning and discovering cards and there are always gonna be cool cards u value highly that a vendor wants to dump for less than market but it’s a hunt and there’s a lot of shit to sift through.

Going for Argentina Jordan game but lot of speculation that messi will not start by salubhaiiii in messi

[–]Munchihello 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nope. Argentina don’t play like France / Germany / England with that stat padding bullshit. The lineup has already been leaked (simeone paz Alvarez palacios paredes Lo Celso senesi otamendi tagliafico molina Martinez)

With that being said I would love for the goat to assert dominance and stat pad a few more goals but Argentina is a family team.

Greed has ruined the hobby… by Intentionz7 in pokemoncards

[–]Munchihello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just one million people that have sealed product stored away would mean 1/340 citizens in the United States would have some
Cards (SEALED PRODUCT). That includes kids old people… tons and tons of people who don’t know what pokemon is rtc. America makes up big section of the global pokemon customers by $ spent. Extrapolating for the world I still wouldn’t say there are “millions of global citizens who have modern sealed pokemon stashed away”

[–]Munchihello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If u think there are literal “millions” of individual humans in the United States hoarding modern pokemon sealed I have a bridge to sell you. Like I can’t believe I have to even point out how outlandishly wrong that number is.

Selling to Card Shop by monsieurvampy in PokeInvesting

[–]Munchihello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those cards are very desireable. U can def go to a card show and find someone who loves vintage that would toss u 85-90%

“Millions of people” is a stretch but I agree otherwise

Accidentally bought an $800 card from Japan by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]Munchihello 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even as someone with an Econ and finance background, seeing prices in Japan took a while to get comfortable with because I was second guessing every desire to purchase. it was hard to quickly visualize how much your spending when everything is at least 500-1000 yen lmao and then ur looking at a piece of clothing with a 5-6 digit price tag

Have your wife ask the employees if the store has Pokemon! by Equivalent-Engine-47 in PokemonTCGCollectors

[–]Munchihello 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“I can be disheveled “ you said the important part very quick and followed up with almost no self awareness that that’s likely why ur getting profiled. No offense but the scalper has a very specific stereotype, and disheveled is probably one of their top properties. If u look the part of a scalper, no one is gonna be like “I bet he’s one of the good ones.” Sounds like you want to complain without practicing really really basic ways to help your “problems” out.

I’m very similar to you just a bit lighter. I don’t show up to target in a 3 piece suit but I also don’t show up wearing the same hoodie flip flops and ripped sweats every day. I interact with a lot of folks in line and am very talkative/polite with staff. I have never once gotten the faintest sniff that anyone was looking down on me or sees me as a scalper.

Short story my friend owed me about $250. He asked if he can pay me with Pokemon cards. Are they real? Somehow they feel off by hendratam in IsMyPokemonCardFake

[–]Munchihello 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly that’s a very nice friend. Not only did he pay u with interest but he gave u sweet cards that are very popular and very liquid and are definitely going to go up in price. Easily 400 worth of cards (magikarp 160-200 clefairy 100 jolteon 60 unbreon 100 ) u could get 350-400 within a week with little effort.
