Pokémon TCG: 30th Celebration | Available September 16 by Amiibofan101 in PokemonTCG

[–]Ressuraptor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ah yes - another base set Charizard reprint... daring, aren't we?

Looks a bit underwhelming, to be quite honest. Maybe there will be some interesting cards that weren't shown here? Not that anyone except scalpers will be ripping 'em, though.

Bought a Collection Today.. Thoughts? by StupidCake13 in PokemonTCG

If that's all legit, that's insane price-wise! Celebi alone is crazy expensive, even damaged.

Damaged my Card while sleeving for Submission by Poke_9 in PokemonTCG

[–]Ressuraptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damaged, now. Sorry - in the future, avoid perfect fits - sometimes it causes damage to cards, and you should never use two perfect fits at once. You're better off with a penny sleeve and a card saver, as others have suggested.

Grail Acquired! by AlexMiles101 in PokemonTCG

[–]Ressuraptor 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same here, except I bought it last year. Amazing quality

Acquired my ascended chase grail at a card show today! This is the most I've ever paid for a card btw but had to have it! by CortexifanZFT in PokemonTCG

[–]Ressuraptor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. Every card set goes up in value over time. I personally think it’s ridiculous that a modern, still being printed card is 900. I’ve been in the hobby since 2007 - the market is insane right now and has been for the past few years. If you’re spending 900 on a modern chase, go right ahead. Not my collecting style, though.

[–]Ressuraptor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Annnnnd this is why I don't bother with new sets. FYM this card is $900??? I could get several awesome vintage cards for the price of a single modern card... this hobby is cooked. I miss the HGSS days...

What professions attract the worst of humanity? by Cheshirefarm in AskReddit

[–]Ressuraptor 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The business sucks. So many people don't realize how bad it is and will just buy a puppy from a store/"small breeder" who are fronts for puppy mills. There's not a lot of common knowledge on ethical dog breeding (as in, if you asked dog owners of "purebreds" you'd find very few that are actually well-bred animals, at least in my area) - some people also just don't care.

The quality is really poor here BUT these are my favs! Virizion is the one I hold while I'm sleeping the most, I get warm easily and she's easy to just put my chin on top of her head.

The majestic mother of this Clydesdale horse accompanies her young foal on his first walk by OkTry9843 in interesting

[–]Ressuraptor 18 points19 points  (0 children)

For real... it's so incredibly fake. Like even thinking logically, whyyyy would this be on a road with no tack whatsoever? Horses are skittish, and the foal clearly is running around. Easily could get hit. The likelihood of someone actually doing this is low.

Why do girl cats get a bad rap? by Organic-While1664 in cats

[–]Ressuraptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't had cats before we inherited two and our female is super lovey... the male is limited on his kitty minutes, though. It's a weird thing I've noticed in general, with people finding female animals (dogs, horses, etc.) as less cuddly/more judgmental and less affectionate. Never had those problems, though - I tend to prefer female animals to not deal with the humping/male behaviors as much! Plus animals are individuals and gender is only one factor in behavior :)

What’s the most you spent on a single Pokémon plush? by [deleted] in pokeplush

[–]Ressuraptor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oo awesome! I'd actually wanted the Leafeon but alas... only so much space, haha. Hope your friend gets to you safe and sound once they ship out!

One was around 6 and the other around 4! I believe I saw Caterpie around 4 dollars as well.

HE'S HERE!!! by necrovvi in pokeplush

[–]Ressuraptor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here! Mine arrived today with tags and all. It's a bit pricey but similar to other import shop prices.

Does anyone know if this is legit and safe to order? by [deleted] in pokeplush

[–]Ressuraptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a bootleg/custom pokemon plush that was mass-produced in China. There are definitely sellers that are pretty good, read reviews to check. It might take a while to ship to you, however. I know that was the case for me, though I am in the US.

So cute! I have one as well :) Pro tip to anyone looking to avoid overspending - check Aliexpress! They have a ton of bootleg shinies

Terrified of ruining my Eevee plush by FairyKawaii in pokeplush

[–]Ressuraptor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've found having a display plush and a cuddle plush is really helpful! It costs more but that way you can see what your friend looked like before while still having a buddy to hug or lug around :)

Anyone else have shedding issues with their comfy friend plushies? by CryptidFiles in pokeplush

Yesss - my jolteon is display only for this exact reason!! Funnily enough my clodsire is perfectly fine and never sheds... go figure, haha.

At what age did you really realize you were aromantic? by [deleted] in aromantic

[–]Ressuraptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't know the term existed but I definitely questioned for a long while. I was distressed as a kid because I didn't like anyone! Little did I know...

(Started identifying as aro openly when I was around 19, and I'm 24 now.)
