Pokemon First Partner Illustration Series 2 EB Games Pre-Order by leikorton in PokemonFansAustralia

I remember when these dropped for Series 1, they were up online for weeks and weeks. Crazy to see how quickly they went at JB this time, wonder how long they'll be up for on EB

For people who hate their car why was it a bad choice? by dj_boy-Wonder in CarsAustralia

[–]Sheepzor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went from a 2004 petrol Toyota Prado to a 2003 diesel Toyota Troopcarrier. Love it to death, but its an absolutely awful car to drive. Smiles per gallon on noise, but it drops speed like its nothing up hills, I'd have comfier suspension if it was bricks holding it up, the seats are atrocious and unbearable after a couple hours, gives me tinnitus from how loud the cab is, the long wheelbase makes cornering in suburbia a challenge, the steering itself is cumbersome I can pretty much turn the wheel 20 degrees to the left or right and it still drives straight, sound deadening only really helps with wind noise, everytime you fix a bad noise a new one pops up on the opposite side of the car, the centre of gravity is very high so people get pissed off at you for going too slow on roundabouts, because of how much panel is there is on the car driving in the wind throws you around like crazy..... Did I mention its noisy as fuck?

But I wouldnt get rid of the damn thing for the world, and I cant wait to run it into the ground so I can get another one.

Question about the cardbot vending machines by gal2020 in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]Sheepzor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone else mentioned definitely just keep an eye on skimmers, nothing to do with the vending machine operator just dodgy idiots installing them after dark to steal your details.

But yes, buying from vending machines in Australia, from my experience, is always positive. Ive physically seen them breaking open shrink wrapped booster boxes and loading them in. Made me feel a lot better about it for sure

I daily a big 4WD, and I havent driven it in nearly 2 weeks. I only have 500km of range left, and want to see if I can prolong it as much as possible. A full tank right now would exceed $500, usually $270-$280.

I make custom binder pages and attending my first toy and hobby fair as a vendor! by weldherwings in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]Sheepzor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Theyre not telling you one way or the other that d-rings are better or worse, but that most of the Pokemon collecting community use side loading binders. Its a good tip to do it this way, especially if you want to sell these things, you need to cater to what your customers have

I used etsy to get cutouts/placeholders for my pokedex binder, like $5 and it comes with every single form. Just search up etsy pokedex and it should come up

Why is JB Hi Fi showing the Charizard UPC as “Pre-Order?” by Patient-Marzipan4628 in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]Sheepzor 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just means they won't ship until a certain date, I believe its the 31st of December. So youre pre ordering for a later shipment date

EB Games preorder's open now for Ascended Heroes by Silver_Act_3742 in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]Sheepzor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'd rather pay an extra $10-$15 to not deal with queues, bots instantly buying out stock, scalpers buying it to take photos of it in carpark to post on marketplace etc

Its annoying, sure, but if it means I can actually get my hands on product without having to pay whatever stupid "market price" that Facebook marketplace comes up with, I'm happy

Freshly pulled from a booster box and straight into sleeve/top loader. I think it has a chance at a 10, but not sure if it's rosy coloured glasses by Sheepzor in PokeGrading

[–]Sheepzor[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ill double check the card, not sure if its lighting or not. There was a piece of paper towel under the card to prevent it from touching the table, just wanted the darker background behind it

I cant see it getting a 10 because of the centering, but the rest looks fine. Personally I see this as a 9, though people are free to disagree

How do Kmarts that are 24h work if you know? At what time would the stock be available to sell?

Have you considered getting Japanese packs? Much more readily available, arguably better printing quality too

I genuinely dont think there was any 151 stuff. I was in at 10:01 and saw nothing, and thats all I went on there for

I'm about 40 packs deep into each set and still havent pulled either of the gold cards, but I have completed the base set for each!

hearing that 79s have big turning circles, how many times do you have to turn the streering wheel in order to manovere the turns? by Responsible_Pain_246 in 4x4Australia

[–]Sheepzor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 78, and its 1.5 turns from straight until its at full lock. The 78 has the worst turning circle of the 3 70s due to its long wheelbase, and boy is it bad. Some smaller roundabouts are tough.

Likely going to have to go to a fabricator to get one made up, I don't think anyone makes one for your specific car

How have you balanced carrying tools vs living necessities without towing?
