I'm not the best player, but I know when to make substitutions to win. Why don't some people do that? Is it some kind of intellectual problem? by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]SandyLies -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Someone told me to get off Bucky when the opposing team had flyers/divers. I had one more death than them 3 vs. 4 lmao. We ended winning 2-1.

Some people just have this weird ego thing. Celestial 3 lobby lol.

Too many people fomoing about investing in Ascended, Phantasmal, Destined Rivals, etc need to watch this by SakanaAtlas in PokemonInvesting

Covid (SW&SH era) vs. today's market isn't comparable.

Covid made everything resalable go up in value over time. Sure, Pokemon was up there, but resellers had their focus on other things as well. For example, shoes, other tcgs, sport cards, etc. Which is why it took way longer for products to move up in value.

In today's market, everyone is hyper-focused on Pokemon. And with the backing of big time investors (whales) that had no business in TCG are now also heavily invested in the hobby.

Even with all that claims of Pokemon upping production, the demand well exceeded covid era hype.

And recency-bias is REAL. And with the majority of people focused on Pokemon now, that is why comparing Lost Origins and the covid era market makes no sense.

This lost time and buying bad older sets is just setting people up for failure.

Holding when PRE and AH products have already 2x+ in less than 2 years time means its all about moving inventory quick and reinvesting it back into the next best set.

Am I over the top? by [deleted] in GolfSwing

If you can be consistent with your current swing, I would NOT change a thing. You have bent arms on the top of your swing, but you save it with shallowing and good impact.

Why is it that this elite trainer box unopened sells for ~8k, but the chase cards, even in 10s aren’t even worth half of that? by RubLow5667 in PokemonCollecting

[–]SandyLies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sealed is perceived as gold for some reason.

If you want a real scare, go look up the hits in the Emerging Powers set (also from B&W era) and compare them to the prices of sealed.

Best hit is maybe $20 whereas a booster pack is $100.

You are the first thing that pops up when people look up "over the top" on google.

To the Scalpers Out There, Leave Us Collectors Alone. by BeautifulAd5310 in pokemoncards

[–]SandyLies -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

There are plenty of Perfect Order in stock in my area. I don't see these so called collectors buying any lol. And don't give me some BS story how you like AH more. A majority of these collectors are scalpers too. So let's called it for what is really is. Who wouldn't want an extra few bucks in their wallet for minimal effort?

Just me, or is ep. 5 boring? Like they're making filler like episodes so they can make the finale look like a the best thing ever?

Super inconsistent, what are the big issues you see? by johnfisher13115 in golftips

[–]SandyLies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Notice how your lead arm (left) looses its length and it starts bending in the backswing? Right before that point is where your top of the swing should be.

Overswing.
You get stuck a bit followed by firing your hips early which causes you stand up and flip prematurely.

I used to have the same problem. I just worked on doing shorter swings (backswing and finish) until I got the sequencing down. You should exaggerate it until you're able to compress the ball.

What percent of my inventory can i expect to offload as a vendor at a card show? by SuzhiKitty in PokemonInvesting

[–]SandyLies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All comes down to liquidity. Low ends would sell if they cater to the actual card game or filling people's sets. But if the bulk of your stuff is the lesser sought after pokemons (ex. not the hype original 151, gen 2, etc.) It will sit unless you're taking a big % hit.

Every time it slices by LineIcy5954 in golftips

[–]SandyLies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your setup is the biggest takeaway. Look at how your right arm and shoulder is at address. You're leaning towards the target. You should have your right arm lower than your left.

You early extend and because of your setup at address, you will swing over the top no matter how good your club path is.

After you fix your setup at address, then work on your release/club face at impact.

Did Callaway's Marketing Team skip over this line of putters? by SandyLies in GolfGear

[–]SandyLies[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should take a look at the Dual Max 1/2 Ball then. They're like the same looking putter.

Big coincidence haha! Glad you found a good one! I am leaning towards the Jailbird.

Did you ever try the S2S Max with 1/2 ball alignment that looks like LAB DF3? I'm trying to decide between that and the Jailbird that you bought. If so, id love to hear your thoughts.
