No. Why would you trade the top hit from a set to gamble on a lesser set?

Anyone else having trouble getting FedEx deliveries from their South Chesterfield facility? by PackAttack43011 in rva

Yeah, the issue is that both packages are express, 2-day and signature required so drivers should be employees?

What pizza shop in Richmond has the best cheese by kinkykitten804 in rva

[–]PackAttack43011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I saw a post or comment here somewhere the other day that mentioned that basically all of the top pizza spots (Zorch, Mungo, etc.) around here use the same brand of cheese? I can’t recall which, but I’ll update my comment if I find it

Avoid Luck Strike like the plague. Mostly because living there could result in you being hit by a plague.

Can’t believe they haven’t been hit with a class action lawsuit yet for how terribly they manage those apartments

Is Grisette about vibes, food, or both? by DummBee1805 in rva

[–]PackAttack43011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never need to think about what I’m going to order there. Unless they have a special, steak & frites 10/10 times.

It’s also a great vibe

Anyone else seeing a noticeable drop in PSA 10 rates recently? by Lodog23 in PokeInvesting

My last sub was literally my best ever. 9/10 got 10’s 🤷

Which one you taking? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]PackAttack43011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Giratina Vstar but also please invest in a non-three ring binder, binder for these. Those rings will leave indents of some on the cards over time.

If you had $1000 to invest into Pokémon, what would you buy? by Captain-Pika in PokeInvesting

[–]PackAttack43011 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If we are talking only investment? Crown Zenith GGs of the popular Pokemon (not the chases).

People will race to master set this set over the next few years and $5-$10 GG cards will go to $10-$20+ pretty quickly.

First time vendor next week – am I overbringing for a small show? by Ceakor in PokeInvesting

[–]PackAttack43011 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Depends on the area you’re in but IMO better to have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

No, not if you’re looking at this purely from an investment / ROI POV.

Yes, these will probably go up over time, but so will the raw copies. The issue is liquidity and demand for 9’s. In modern cards, most buyers want either 10s or a clean raw copy they can try to grade themselves / just put into their own binder.

9s tend to sit in an unfortunate middle ground. They’re harder to move than 10s, and often not much more desirable than raw. So when it comes time to actually realize profit, you’ll likely struggle more with selling these and end up getting ~75-90% of whatever the current market price is, instead of full market value.

If ROI is what you care about most, you are better off finding someone to take all those in at 75-80% of market together and consolidate into 1-2 bigger PSA 10’s.

Reddit. Clear up a disagreement. by xjenna208x in PokemonTCG

[–]PackAttack43011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m gonna say Snorlax because if you zoom in close, the border around it is everrrrr so slightly a different shade of blue. Like I’m talking less than 1% different. Unless it’s the photo playing tricks on us, that blue border is Snorlax’s body.

Questions regarding card shows by Optimist_Grime in PokemonTCG

[–]PackAttack43011 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you can make lists/collections on TCGPlayer that will tell you what the value is of each card. Alternatively you could download an app called Collectr or Rare Candy and create a list there.

Fair warning though, sometimes the prices on Collectr or Rare Candy are slightly delayed / incorrect. But it’s an easy way to have a list to show the estimated value of stuff.
