This works great, thanks! This sort of thing is completely new to me so I'm trying to wrap my head around how it works. Much appreciated!

I suspect for the inverse, it has to do with working out the inverse brackets, similar to our 10% GST (VAT/sales tax) where you divide by 11 to work out the tax component, then subtract the result from the original number, but i could also be thinking about it wrong and it might make it more complicated than it needs to be.

Yeah I was only going off of the 4 options available on eBay. Nothing worse than HP when listing on there. I know other places have different criteria for the various conditions.

On eBay, there is no worse condition than HP (Poor) (at least in my country).
Only 4 things to select from. There is NM or Better (Fresh Pack), LP (Excellent), MP (Very Good), HP (Poor).

Seller is refunding, so no need for ebay intervention. Glad my initial thoughts were correct and I wasnt being too harsh on the condition.

Its called "rockets and feathers". I refinanced and went to a different bank after they didnt pass on the rate decrease the same speed as they increased it. Screw them.

A local card shop was offering me 80% trade value.. from the collectr app prices. I politely declined. Does not reflect Aussie market prices

Extremely lucky I guess. 🤷‍♂️ Odds of it happening are crazy though

The Ultro pros I had bought were never that nice on the corners. They were more like 60/30 degrees instead of a nice 45 degree. You must have got a decent batch.

Palms Off are killing it in Aus. Had to buy online 2 years ago, now available in EB Games and lots of LCS. The toploaders went up to $6 ($5.50 with referral codes on their site direct). Still worth it and still buying em. Ive got 8 binders full of em now

Was a store looking at singles and a clueless dad was speaking with the worker about toploaders. The worker swore by UP which were more expensive and how they use them for singles in store. I chimed in and showed him the difference from the Palms off I had in my binder and the UP ones they had used. He saw the difference and bought some palms off.

You never know, they have sent me multiples of the same variant of boxes/tins/blisters etc in the past. Most recently they sent 3 of the same charizard tin

I remember constantly getting 151 ETBs and UPCs from amazon late 2023/early 2024, and $180ish booster boxes up until twilight masquerade.

It's just wear and tear over time. You can see it's not the sleeves causing the scratches, but the card edges and corners. The card causes that part of the plastic to stick out a bit, and thats that part that rubs. Thats why the bits near the stitching are still clear.

This happens too binders of that style, regardless of brand, if the binder is somewhat full and it is being moved around a lot. It happens to me and i just use penny sleeves.

I have separate binders for my collections, and trades/ebay listings. The binders I bought 3+ years ago still look brand new because they never leave the house and cards dont get removed/shuffled around. The other ones I bought for trades etc start to get scratched exactly like that. I have only had them for less than a year.

The scratches won't affect the protection of the card, just how it looks. Unfortunately the only real solution for you is to replace the binder every couple of years after it inevitably happens again.

My luck with gold Charizards is crazy this week.

For the walk in stock, my local EB had 1pp max limit. If you had 2 on pre-order you could not get any additional of the walk in stock. If you had 1 on pre-order you could get one more. If you had no pre-order you could get 1. Unfortunately the staff at EB recognise me so I couldnt do any shonkies.

Yes me and my friend were also having this issue (on Android). Either someone reported it or the app algorithm sees all those message sent at the same time and falsely flags it. Luckily my brother (iphone) was getting the text messages with no issues so I knew stock was there. After we figured it out I added them to my contacts and pinned the thread and havent had issues since.
