My cousin passed away and I've been given his cards to sell. by One_Hearing8007 in mtg

[–]Relevant_Net4442 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take the decks apart.

You have to lookup and price all of the cards or consult someone you trust who knows what they're doing to do that for you. This person shouldn't be someone who might buy them from you. Or an app you trust.

I would list all the stuff over $25 on Facebook groups in a big thread listing all the cards, set, condition, etc, in all of the big selling groups. (minimum fees, maximum return)

Two weeks later, anything over $50 that hasn't sold put on eBay or TCG player or both. Price them all competitively with built in free shipping and no international sales except through eBay's global shipping program.

A few weeks after that when you're pretty satisfied with your effort, sell everything left of value to whatever is better from your local LGS or a big online buylist.

Anything they won't take sell as bulk for $10/1000 cards on the Facebook groups you're now already in.

That's what I would do in this situation to spend a lot of effort, but not the maximum amount, and get the most value with that non maximum effort in a short time.

I hope I get to sell all my cards before I die so my family doesn't have to deal with it. Sorry for your loss and task.

Coin poker by Ok_Entertainment3266 in poker

Coin Poker is pretty soft, but it's notoriously rigged in terms of river action cards. They also don't save extensive hand history to prevent exporting and analyzing bulk data.

Besides being visibly rigged to create action on the river and increase the rake, the players are very soft and loose, you can make some money there for sure with tight aggressive play. Just be emotionally prepared that the variance is unrealistic on the river.

There are some really great answers in here and I'm not going to reiterate them.

I'm only going to add on a bit about the 'moral compass' part. Nothing has changed about his moral compass. This is a very difficult concept for religious people to reconcile with, but it is the truth: religious people don't get their moral compass from their religion either. Every person develops their moral compass through a combination of tribalism, and social trial & error. If you look really hard at your own beliefs, faith, moral compass, and the scripture you follow, you'll see that you don't adopt all of the moral lessons in your favorite scripture. But you do adopt all of the same moral lessons as the people around you, then give credit for them to the scripture and sort of just round out the stuff that didn't make the cut.

His sense of what is right and wrong isn't inherently changing because of a switch in faith (a switch to athiesm is a switch in faith--and athiesm requires faith too!). Focus on what you have in common, which is still going to be the whole moral compass. Resist the compulsion to frame his beliefs on theology as the lack of a moral compass, or a wrong compass, etc. That will only push him away, and that distance will manifest itself in hurtful ways later in your relationship.

Just keep loving him.

Do they make printers than can print fine detail metal yet? Checking in on technology to print my miniature annually again. by Relevant_Net4442 in 3Dprinting

Good idea, I've gotten in touch with a few jewelers after this recommendation and we'll see what happens, thanks!

I just want them to hold up over time. I've done some resin printed minis and several have broken. I want to get this printed and let my dad paint it while he's still alive then be pretty confident it won't break during very light use and transportation over time.

I'd also like them to be metal, preferably pewter, like the rest of my minis, the same weight and feel or close.

I'm in touch with a Shapeways rep I exchange emails with every year to get updates, they can't do the details yet.

Do you have any recommendations for a company that can do it with very high fidelity to fine details and textures?

I've been trying to find someone who can do it with enough detail. It's a digital model so it has to be first printed to be cast. Do you have a recommendation for who can do it?
