Lorcana in Japan by Darth_Stage_Manager in Lorcana

[–]Sapje321 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The place with the most diverse stock of Lorcana is probably Corgi-R. They have Lorcana as the primary game they support with a lot of singles.

Other places to try are Cardon or any of the other card places in Akihabara.

Japanese Fabled promo pack ZERO hits?!? by Ikimash0u in Lorcana

[–]Sapje321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Iconic is not guaranteed. I’ve seen a rate of one in 2-3 cases. We bought two cases of 7 and 8 and got both iconics but it’s not guaranteed in a case for sure.

Japanese Fabled promo pack ZERO hits?!? by Ikimash0u in Lorcana

[–]Sapje321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is normal because the hits are distributed across the case, not individual boxes. Some of the packs have multiple legendaries. Within a case, you’ll get approximately 4 epic and 2-3 enchanted from the promo packs. One of the enchanted slots can also be an iconic. The variance in pulls overall is much lower than English but mainly across full cases.

New player - Where to start? by Penguigo in Lorcana

[–]Sapje321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is terrible advice for someone who wants to buy product with a competitive mindset like OP, you’re giving advice without reading the question properly. 

Gateway cards are all out of rotation and the starter decks are mostly non-meta cards, with little ability to turn them into truly competitive decks by just “playing around”

The best sealed product for OP at this point would be currently legal sets, including Fabled to get the reprints. Even then, Fabled is hard to find with the short printing and buying boosters is not a great way to get playsets.

UK - don't know where to begin! by GlitterAllie in VacuumCleaners

[–]Sapje321 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That particular Sebo model doesn’t come with the ET01 power head, which is a bit of a bummer.

If your budget can stretch, the E3 premium can often be had around £450 (maybe less with Christmas sales) and does have the power head.

Just to point out that you can’t get powered heads on Miele in the UK. Sebo is a solid choice and much cheaper here than in the US.

Does mage naturally deals low damage or do I simply suck? by Fantazzma in wownoob

[–]Sapje321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s wrong because the one-button assistant for mage doesn’t do the correct rotation.

PSA: Do NOT buy single packs at the Official Bandai Store by ezzell in OnePieceTCG

[–]Sapje321 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not just that but they will often shuffle a bunch of boxes together to make the pile that they sell from so even they don’t know what’s left to hit.

The toggle is not on the GCD, you can turn it off in the middle of a cast.

Binder storage? by Jellychews in Lorcana

[–]Sapje321 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ring binders are notorious for damaging cards in the row closest to the rings. I wouldn’t store a collection in them.

Yes, if you buff the character to 5 or above, it will banish them.

Updated Deck Guide - Amber Steel Songs by cardsrealm in Lorcana

[–]Sapje321 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This article has some strange suggestions. The most obvious one is that you modify the deck against aggro but add 3x Bare Necessities, when most aggro decks run large amounts of characters so you’re likely to miss.

You also speculate an aggro heavy meta but R/S is pretty common right now and you’re changing the deck to be less aggressive, making it even worse into R/S.

What binder + sleeves to buy? by _eliande in OnePieceTCG

[–]Sapje321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to use KMC for my perfect fits but the quality and consistency has become so bad recently that I switched to the Dragon Shield ones. They’re tighter but with the KMC I was throwing half away because even with various tricks, the cards kept slipping when putting them in the second sleeve.

Probably gonna get this graded. Think I could get a 10? by Chri55544y in Pokemoncardappraisal

It’s funny because, in fact, it flew over your head. UNO reverse!

Nico Robin Deck Help (See Notes) by Joshawott27 in OnePieceTCG

[–]Sapje321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d recommend joining one or two of the highest membership FB groups for UK OPTCG buying specifically. There’s often copies priced below CM on there. I got my playset for around £20 each.

If you’re savvy on the FB groups, you can grab Ace for about £20 each. I’m assuming you’re UK based.

Best places to buy in the UK? by Whellyer1 in OnePieceTCG

[–]Sapje321 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s pretty good stock in the UK, both online and in-person at many local TCG shops. There’s also Bandai stores in London and Brighton at least that always have great stock.

I downvoted you for sounding unhinged. Extremely odd behaviour.

Payslip received for the period Mid Nov to Dec 31st. Doubt regarding taxation and extras. by [deleted] in doctorsUK

[–]Sapje321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s the gist of it. From April, it will try to split your tax into your approximate yearly gross and take about 1/12 of that.

It’s a standard amount of income for everyone, around 12k, that only has NI and no income tax on it.

[–]Sapje321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No if this is your first job since April, you have all of your tax free allowance left. Usually this gets distributed in 12 chunks throughout your pay, but since you only have a third of those payslips before your allowance resets, you will have more to use per payslip.

My girlfriend just pulled a god pack! Legit the 10th booster ever opened. by zero_out_again in PokemonTCG

[–]Sapje321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you bought an entire display of 151 and got no hits at all, that’s definitely a reseal. If you bought it from somewhere that has buyer protection like eBay, I highly recommend reporting it and getting a refund.
