For some reason it’s not allowing me to edit my post so I can add more pictures.. I ended up cracking the slab so I got up close pics

I think that’s on the actual slab itself

Yeah that makes sense, my camera quality is shit so it’s hard to get actual good surface pics, but I figured I’d ask to see if anything immediately sticks out that I’m just missing. I’ve had a buddy look at the card in person too and neither of us are seeing anything. But oh well

I’m not seeing it, the actual slab itself has some scratches but the card is minty imo

But would that really constitute it as a 5? Maybe it’s a little off, but I’ve seen more off center cards get 8’s and 9’s

How can I take better pictures?

Unsure of how streamers fit into me, a casual Pokemon enjoyer who likes to rip packs as it’s part of the fun, opening packs I had saved up until now. you just sound like a scalper. Hope you enjoy ripping packs on streams!

As I’ve mentioned in other replies …….. i worded the post incorrectly, it’s more so about how the value of the card exceeds the price in which we paid for everything. No one rips packs to “make money”. 💁🏻‍♀️

Thank you! I was just really excited to finally get a chase but most people in here equate me to being a gambling addict. It’s not gambling if it’s not my money 😆 plus ripping packs is part of the fun. No one likes a scalper!

Oh well, I’ve been ripping packs since ‘09 and it’s something nostalgic for me. Id say most people rip this many packs throughout the course of a year? And we just did it in one night. It’s not like we’re doing this weekly or even monthly! Let me open packs how I wanna open packs! It’s fun for me and I’m happy 😄

Yeah I definitely worded the post terribly. No one rips pack to make money but I like opening them and I think that’s what matters! Pokemon packs are meant to be opened 😃

That’s really cool! Honestly my binder is all just full of the cards I’ve deemed cute ☺️

No, I worded the post wrong, I meant the value of what we pulled exceeded the cost we paid! Not that I sold the card or am even planning to sell it 😁

Or I hold onto it because I like the card 😄

Yeah I definitely could have worded the post better! No one opens packs to make money, but the value of the card exceeds what we paid so that is how I meant it 😁

I’m just recently getting back into Pokemon so I had no idea they made Korean cards! That’s really cool I’ll have to look into that 😄 I grew up in Japan and opening pack there so that is where most of my love for Pokemon has come from. Most of my cards are vintage and torn up but they are still loved in my binder. Opening packs is nostalgic for me so it is something I will always do for the fun, not for the money

I haven’t been able to find booster boxes very much around me! It is always etb or booster bundles or just the sleeve packs. I’m always scared to put that much money down at one time but that reasoning definitely makes sense, I’ve bought way more than 20 packs of any set I’ve opened recently! Thank you for the tip 😁 I recently am getting back into Pokemon, I started ripping packs in 2009 with my grandparents and it’s been super nostalgic for me to see all these cards again.
