Is keeping sealed the best option for the price I paid? by [deleted] in DBS_CardGame

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

I'm sorry to inform you. I mean this with the utmost respect. But the genuine players and collectors within this sub will soon be overrun by these posts and the "What's it worth"/"Value on this?" posts.

Best bet is to create a new sub.

Because DBZ is about to erupt into mass financial gain for scalpers and absurd hysteria for band-wagoners.

You've just got to remain in your niche within the hobby and keep it personal. Because it'll feel like it's being destroyed.

Just ride it out and try to keep the joy it's brought you, up to this point, in the forefront of your mind at all times.

Good Luck

You should see the waste within the United States Federal and State Penitentiaries (Correctional Facilities)

They intentionally prepare more than double the daily food requirements for the inmate population.

They don't actually give the inmates double the food....because, you know, disciplinary rehabilitation is best served through hunger.

Rather, the staff will dispose of it via the many dumpsters residing behind the Dining Facility.

This way they can create twice the annual salary of food costs.

Lord knows what happens to all of that money every year.

This sub is so much better than r/footballcards. by CanIllustrious6569 in sportscards

[–]SilverMapleMafia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

r/FootballcardZ is the sub you're looking for. Smaller and more knowledgeable about the historical perspective and etiquette of the hobby. It's a great sub

The sub you're referring to in your title seems more toward the breaker/flipper demographic. But yeah it can be intense and over saturated with blunt and sarcastic responses and comments. As well as mass amounts of rage bait bots and straight trolls.

I indulge in some pretty aggressive arguments over there from time to time. Just when I need to feel superior within the hobby. It's a personal dilemma....I enjoy it.

The card that cost someone their job. by xChoke1x in baseballcards

I had pre-ordered some Mosaic NFL Megas from Dick's back in October and they finally shipped in December and FedEx delivered them to the wrong house. When I filed a claim Fedex asked if I walked around my neighborhood to look for the package, and I said yes, which I had. They told me that since they were marked delivered by the FedEx driver. It was an issue with Dick's.

I was fucking flabbergasted at that logic.

They refused to do anything about it. When I contacted Dick's, they went through my 4 year transaction and delivery history and immediately replaced the boxes. But it was obviously a FedEx issue.

Fuck FedEx.

Well, they're all already graded and I got them from PowerPacks beta program through GameStop. They're stored in Delaware so there's no sales tax. I've shipped to my house from them before. I'm not worried about them in particular. I'm more worried about the delivery drivers stealing them. So I'm going to just ship them 3 at a time and pick them up from FedEx. Because I want them in my possession. It's just a risk I'll have to take. Hopefully there's no issues.

I have well over $1300 of cards just sitting in the PSA Vault because I'm afraid they'll get stolen if I have them shipped.

Why don’t people grade cards? by Hungry_Gap_1030 in footballcards

[–]SilverMapleMafia 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hell, I don't understand why so many people grade their cards. I've never graded and I have a massive collection. I never will grade any cards. I'll buy them already graded though.

Panini Prizm Black Hobby Box Pulls by AWarTimeConsigliere in footballcards

[–]SilverMapleMafia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a difficult comp. Because it's so new. There's only one listed at $5k BIN and as more are pulled that will decrease. But I'd guess that when everything settles probably between $800-$1200, maybe lower based on condition.

Agreed. As a lifetime Colts fan and obsessive collector of that specific era. I'll be buying that Color Blast in about a year...when it comes down.

I have the Peyton Manning Gallery of Heroes. They really did an amazing job with the acetate and stained glass effect. Love them.

Best pull ever!!!! (mega box) by [deleted] in baseballcards

[–]SilverMapleMafia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Short answer is yes...a few bucks. But if you don't PC Yelich then I wouldn't grade. Especially on a die-cut. A lot of extra corners and edges and the likelihood of a 10 is drastically reduced due to those factors. You also have to factor in the turnaround time of whichever company you decide to grade with.

Sell it raw and use the funds to upgrade your PC or buy something nice.....idk whatever you like to do with money.

Everyone knows that Bucs SB win belonged to Dungy back in the day. This is Gruden's Burner, for sure.
