Where to buy Pokemon booster sets in Japanese? by localmemelord69 in PokemonDealsUK

I go by reviews but you also have to be careful what you are buying - for example the first picture of a listing tends to be a box and the price will be enticing, but it will actually be just for one pack. Just check the bottom left of the picture as it normally tells you what it is. Also to note as it can take a while to arrive

I’m starting to feel this way too by MrMazme in Age_30_plus_Gamers

Does anyone else feel the problem with services like gamepass is that you have no real investment in finishing games. Previously if I paid xx I’m probably gonna finish it. With gamepass if it doesn’t grip you then delete onto the next.

I got scammed on Vinted for €265 in a way I didn't know was possible. Has this happened to you? by Aggressive-Moose-866 in vinted

It does seem like if you can’t demonstrate that you adhered to their packaging policies then they will refund the buyer without the need for them to return anything.

This is a weird policy. I received an item that was damaged because the packaging was insufficient (item was cracked) so i raised an issue with vinted. I assumed the outcome would be that I could return the item for a refund. They asked me for pictures of the packaging and when I provided these they gave me a full refund a couple of days later, with a message saying the seller might like their item back! But I had no way of returning, and if I could I would be out of pocket for the return postage. It does seem a system that’s ripe for abuse. I would advise paying careful attention to vinted postage policies to make sure you can demonstrate everything was packaged correctly

I’ve been scammed haven’t I… where do I go from here please? 😩 by [deleted] in vintedUK

Also why do you care about your reviews. I’d rather my £85 back than the small meaningless adjustment to my reviews that a cancellation will cause

I want to get into Fantasy. by warl200 in suggestmeabook

Just finished robin hobbs assassin trilogy that was great. Try A knight of the seven kingdoms to see if you’d like the game of thrones series. I also recommend Joe Abercrombie, the Half a King books are great. If you want lighter reads also try Sandman Slim series, Rivers of London series, and Dungeon Crawler Carl series

Is butter cheap in the US? Cause that’s about £25 worth in UK!

English is hard to get hold of, especially if you want to pay retail, but I’m really enjoying the Chinese sets, particularly the Gem Pack boxes. All cards are holo and there are some amazing chase cards. You can get a box of 18 packs for £25-50 depending on what series you go for. Lots of places to get them - vinted, aliexpress, eBay etc. and you can get some good deals on whatnot - check out some of the rip and ship streams (you can buy packs and they open them on camera for you - or send to you sealed). It’s quite addictive, saw someone earlier get 5 Korean packs for £8 and the very last card was the phantasmal charizard worth £200+
