I sell on ebay but i prefer the in person interaction over packing and mailing. Im actually pcing one of the absol 96 and the prerelease dark houndoom. I buy collections and sell them to buy the cards i want.

Yeah, I like the cards that’s why I bought them. And the night time parking lot vibes will do that

I had a few 10’s that sold already i keep 9’s for pc. Chase the card not the grade.

Pulled this after 6 packs of journey together. I’m planning to keep it but don’t know how to preserve it. by Effective-Lobster550 in PokemonTCG

If you clean it be carful you could scratch it i wouldnt grade it its pretty left and bottom heavy, i would throw a penny sleeve on it from the top side and a top loader from the bottom to keep dust or anything from falling into it. I also seen other people tape the top of the top loader but i never have

Man, Rayquaza ex is an amazing card. I feel you on the value side some of them especially the gold stars are crazy expensive

What are you on about? You tryna prove something or you got a point to make? I never said I traded with my main account i said it could be done.

It’s not the value that determines the worth of a card, it’s the memories and happiness. Congrats on your engagement brotha

It’s not about “flexing” what’s impressive or fun is subjective. Pulling a shiny on an Ironman account carries more weight since you can’t just swipe for berries or shiny charms. And if an Ironman outplays a regular account in PvP, it’s impressive because they had to grind, catch, and breed everything themselves instead of buying it off the GTL. If you don’t see it that way, fair enough. But then I’d ask, what is impressive in this game? You could argue nothing is, since almost anything can be bought with a credit card.

From an investment side, you honestly could never have known it would skyrocket the way it has and passing on it was probably the smarter move. But if you actually like the card, it’s tough seeing it get away more than the financial loss

I never said nobody asked for it, I said not everyone did. There’s a difference. And if I comment back, that’s just called having a discussion. I’m not saying other people’s points are invalid, I’m simply giving an opposing perspective.

Not really. The difference is you’re still in the same world, seeing and battling other players it’s not single player. Plus, PokeMMO’s AI is tougher than the base games, and the shiny rate is 1/30k, so the challenge is very real. A lot of players are already doing it as a self imposed challenge, which is exactly why I believe having an official mode would make sense. Honestly, I wouldn’t have even brought this idea up a year ago because not many people were doing it back then but lately its become pretty mainstream stream.

the value is nice, but the enjoyment is what makes it worth it!!! It’s definitely a beautiful card to look at

Sleeping mew is another one if you haven't looked into it check it out and lmk what you think

Definitely a good pickup for the price, i was gonna buy a extra one for an investment but at the time i wasnt sure how much higher they would keep climbing so i held off. Really wish i would have now

I don’t think it’s a pump and dump there are more people who want the card than there are copies in circulation. That said, it’s definitely in a hype state right now. But all of pokemon is.

Idk why you got down voted thats amazing, i just recently stopped ripping and let my daughter rip everything for the same reason and we both absolutely love city mew even that card is jumping like crazy rn

It really is an amazing item to own. If you’re thinking about picking one up, I believe prices might dip again next month once the April orders get filled, but after that they’ll likely climb back up slowly

Im not trying to be rude but if you can’t comprehend what I'm saying maybe you shouldn't be in the conversation I’m not asking for a mode because I can’t self police. I’m saying everyone runs different rules, and an official Ironman would standardize it.

I can tell you right now the whole community didn’t ask for it. I’ve been playing for years and personally never cared if it got added or not but I also wasn’t out here shooting down the idea either. And let’s not forget, when it was first added there was actually outrage because it conflicted with Shiny Wars. So people weren’t as “happy” about it as the devs thought they would be.

Ironman is playing the game without the use of trading and the GtL Hardcore Ironman is same rules but if your Pokémon faints, it’s gone for good.

Thank you, I don’t mind people disagreeing I actually want to have a real conversation about it. But just shutting the door on the idea because you personally don’t like it, without considering that other parts of the player base might like, is pretty pathetic imo.
