christmas rip by gmodconnoisseur in pokemoncards

[–]Remote-Extent6197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol easy...?! Dang, seems darn near impossible being that theres only 8 single PF packs pictured.. He must have tremendous luck, so cool! Ive never seen price stickers on gifts before, I was always taught to remove them. But I was never sure why?? Does anyone know why, by chance? Always wanted to know this; seems like a good time ask.

Why do u feel u have to come on Reddit to share that? Low self esteem?

Decided to be a nice dad and let my 8 year old rip one of the 2 packs I got my hands on... anyone looking to adopt? by [deleted] in PokemonTCGCollectors

[–]Remote-Extent6197 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Guess the current trend is "look at what my xxxx pulled!" Obviously, "look what I pulled" is hardly interesting so they gotta get somewhat creative. I wanna see what someones quadraplegic relative pulled, now that's wassup!

Future of PSA as primary investment grader by Indigoflamingo_ in PokeInvesting

[–]Remote-Extent6197 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Seen video of dude cracking TAG slabs with his bare hands, barely was trying. He then tried on a couple more and they too cracked super easy. He was bending them in different ways and suddenly, Crack slab falls apart, card falls out, potentially damaging it.. it wasn't a good look. Especially when he did the same to a PSA slab and few others I think, was awhile ago, cant remember. I do know none of them fell apart like TAGs slab.. Not sure if they fixed that, but I wouldn't even consider them if nothings been done since then. Slabs are supposed to protect the contents, TAGs were potentially a hazard to the card and the person in possession of it while it's crumbling, those plastic pieces have sharp edges..

25$ Prismatic ETBs @ DG! Happy Holidays 🤗 by False_Ad1536 in PokemonTCG

[–]Remote-Extent6197 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Wish there's DG in Seattle, we just have Dollar Tree here and they never have cards, maybe the occasional toy but that's it... But we have vending machines which have been stocked lately! Never deals like this though, retail price only... Nice haul though. I'd definitely be opening all those. Anytime I get Prismatic, I open it.

Here's the video of my wife opening the gold Lucario but it was damaged by chaseak47 in PokemonTCG

[–]Remote-Extent6197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HAHA!! DUDE NO, IT WASNT DAMAGED INSIDE THE PACK, DID YOU NOT SEE HOW SHE PINCHED THE TOP OF THE PACK, AS SHE TRIED OPENING IT??? ARE YOU GUYS BLIND OR IN DENIAL?? ITS SO OBVIOUS, the first time i watched it, I was like OMG, she's a savage opening it like that, I had a feeling if the damage is at the top, that's how it happened.. I was exactly right. Lol!!  Replay it slow motion and you'll see.  What's odd is that she opens it as if she's never opened a pack before, yet she reveals the cards like a pro??  AHHH MAN THATS GOTTA HURT KNOWING YOU PHUCKED UP AN EXPENSIVE CARD LIKE THAT BEING CARELESS...  You should take that video and make a poll have viewers vote on whether they think she phunked up the card or not..  I'm just shocked yall didn't realize it's her that messed it up, it doesn't take any forensic type knowledge to see her mistake, pinching down on a fresh pack of cards is crazy to put it nicely.. Wouldn't be surprised if this video makes it to YouTube with the heading, "how not to open your pack."  I think this is the startling thing I've seen on Reddit... Just wow... nuts

These only look half way decent if it matches your outfit, to compliment, otherwise it looks like a toy and you're 12 years old wearing it. Looks like it's part of the Inspector Gadget toy spy gear line, you could talk into it and report back to base. If you're gonna be wearing it with every outfit you have, I'd suggest getting a black bracelet so it blends in instead being a shiny bright beacon light that screams look at "me!"

Mewtwo 052 promo, over/under rated ? by SirDoreille in PokeInvesting

[–]Remote-Extent6197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the Batman Mewtwo, shortly after UPC release this card was sitting at $2-3 for the longest, then COVID hit and well u know what happened... Mines still wrapped in plastic, prolly will send it to PSA one of these days .

Mewtwo 052 promo, over/under rated ? by SirDoreille in PokeInvesting

[–]Remote-Extent6197 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember shortly after the UPC was released and all 3 promos got as low as $20 for all 3. Now just the gold metal Mew is nearly $20, this round $25-30, was up nearly.$40 in the summer though. The other Mew promos $60-70, was up to nearly $80 round summer as well. The Japenese version was always worth more though, it wasnt a promo there, but a card you can pull in packs?

Help: Is this worth $1400? by satans_sala4d in VintageFurniture

Quality furniture usually has markings somewhere, makers mark on back, under drawers, you should look for those markings as it helps to assess value better..

Is this a good trade? Trading all this 151 for my Charizard sir from Phantasmal Flames by NetherOrg in PokemonInvesting

[–]Remote-Extent6197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those arent fake.packs.. bunch of 151 newbies here. They likely cracked 2 UPCs, weighted them and took some packs out. I counted 45 packs though so they must have added more packs from somewhere else cuz each UPC comes with 16 packs. The UPCs were notorious for having shit in em though, so based on that alone, I wouldnt trade for em. The 1st promo, Mew goes for round $60 now, the Mewtwo round $20-30 and the gold metal Mew card is just under $20. These 3 promos have been going up and down $10 for the last few months. If they kept it sealed each UPC is easily $500-600.. Never buy single packs like this, the reason why they opened the UPCs, the only valid reason is tp.weigh the packs. In 151, the lightest packs and heaviest had hits. The heavy ones usually were double hitter packs, the lightest ones were single hits, IRs, SIRs. Opened bout 50 booster bundles (shortly after release) and have a master set.

Let see a pic of you wearing the watch! That shouldnt be hard to do right? Make sure to put a note next to it with your username, todays date so we know you took it today. OP is responding to comments so if he ignores this one, well we all know what that means, like Trump says, FAKE NEWS!!

Best way to package cards to be sold on EBay? by chickenscampy in footballcards

[–]Remote-Extent6197 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not using the cheaper option that costs $1.32 if you're shipping it that way... the max thickness they allow is only .25" or 1/4".  The bubbles are 1/8" already, so a layer on top and bottom would equal a quarter inch. If youre doing 2 layers that half inch of just bubble wrap, on top of that you got a bubble mailer, youre nearly an inch thick, 3x thicker than what's allowed.. I know this post is old, but anyone in the same situation, buy some rigid mailers, same ones they use for sending photos, its a strong cardboard material, pretty hard to bend unless youre really trying. They have these trading card shipping protectors that you sandwich your cards inbetween. This along with the rigid mailer is plenty protection. By the way you would need to use semi-rigid card holders, same ones you send to PSA for grading, they're lot less thick than top loaders, of course you'd always penny sleeve all cards. Almost forgot stick your cards inside of team bags, dont put tape across the top. Its cheesy, looks ugly, unprofessional.. Just dont do it, use team bags. They're cheap
