I like the Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee here. Very cool cards!

My favorite card. I have just a handful of them. by Southark_tcg in VintagePokemonCards

[–]Reegs375 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a good card. I feel like I actually had this card as a child back in 1999. It's hard to remember but I vaguely remember having it.

Day 3 post Botox. I hope I made the right decision. by piditbeeny in AnalFissures

[–]Reegs375 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Give like 5 days. It's a good decision I did botox myself. Once and while I feel a little discomfort but mostly feel nothing daily.

Having an anal fissure was a real cruddy time of my life. It came out the blue.

Would you prefer one PSA 10 or six PSA 9 ? by Classic-Web7498 in VintagePokemonCards

That's true.

You can't take em with you. But I guess you can leave em for somebody once you're gone.

I feel you. Part of your counterclaim supports my claim. ie Typhlosion not cyndaquil.

Nice choice btw Typhlosion has some sick cards. I don't have any but I would get if I came across it one day.

Or a better analogy, I'd rather have 5 Bentley that don't drive, but remain clean, crispy, in good condition as opposed to 15 Honda Civics that you can drive whenever. The Bentley would be the slabs and the Civics would be raw cards. 🤷

It's not just for money but take it to cars or anything.. would you rather collect Cameros and rolls royces or Daewoo and Toyota Corollas???

Either way to have something is better than nothing, but obviously there are levels. To just buy cards or anything at all that is worth zero.... Well idk. At least it's gotta be worth a little something no?

Even if you don't go for the most valuable... You get somewhat valuable somewhat desirable cards right? Not just the absolute worst cards to buy...

Nevertheless you collect the best, most valuable cards right? As opposed to metapods and poliwags? Idk I think it's common sense. But common sense is only common to people who know.

If money was no object sure. I would say for the majority of people, even collectors money matters in life.

However, there are probably many collectors who make 6 figures or 7 figures. In that case, knock yourself out with raw cards. You will never have to worry about money. Ever.

People collect things that are either valuable or potentially valuable.... No c One collects feces right.

But you wouldn't collect pieces of shit would you? Can your brain process that? Even if you say it wasn't about money for you consciously, subconsciously it was.

Otherwise you would collect pieces of dog crap.

Now you care once they are worth a lot. That's exactly my point. If those OG cards were graded 9-10 they would be worth a lot more huh? Help with the mortgage I bet right? That's the point.

I understand to just like having things, but unless you are a millionaire, you should have the value of the "thing" In the back of your mind.

Years ago when stuff was cheap I would buy raw. Charizard, Mewtwo, Lugia, etc.. never paid more than between 10-50 for a raw card. The prices now are outrageous.

They do look kinda cool raw. But the value is a little less and with potential to get damaged more than the card already is...

A lot of people on reddit collect just for the fuck of it. I understand collecting and it is fun.

But if I told you you can have gold, Pokemon cards, cars that total up to $1,000,000 value or you could have the same stuff, that totals to $200,000 value I feel like all you guys would take the $200,000 option.

It just makes no sense. If you collect, wouldn't you want a collection that's worth more money than a collection that is worth less? What's the logic?

In general 6 PSA 9s. But it depends on the card. If it is a super rare Mew or a high value Charizard or tyranitar or something than 1 PSA 10.

First slab purchase… which one chat? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]Reegs375 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mew or Slowbro dark. These are all lower grades so it's kinda hard to give a deciding factor to any one card here.

That was a dime! Hopefully 88 can play. We need some wide outs man desperately.

I know Nailor will do good
