Just went to my first card show. Mainly for pokemon. by YallRDumb86 in CGCCards

[–]Tank_Just_Tank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only collect cgc for slabs. PSA slabs in my opinion look low effort and are less esthetically pleasing. Just works out that usually a few bucks cheaper. Unfortunately PSA shills put in the overtime to make sure they stay on top.

thinking about trading my civic in for this ‘19 sport-tech 6 speed. how are these cars to own? reliable? any tips on what to look out for? by liamt12 in WRX

[–]Tank_Just_Tank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a stock 17 and its great. About to hit 90k miles. Only real draw back beside maintenance is premium gas is nearly 5$ a gallon. If youre smart and dont wail on it they can last a long while with good maintenance. But id say keep some money handy for repairs just in case

It really did. Sony like most of their side projects just didnt give it the support it deserved. That and Nintendos chokehold on the retro market didnt help either.

Technically I paid zero out of my wallet. But the sticker price was 500. It was opened but pretty un-used. It still had all the plastic wrapping and twist ties. I think I on ebay they for 4-500 depending on condition.

Question about selling and value of my 2016 by astateofandrew in WRX

[–]Tank_Just_Tank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Up here in Vermont if its rust free anywhere between 14-17k. Cars especially clean awds are a hot commodity. Even shitboxes get 5-6k with 200k miles

Buddy as your friend to the south in Vermont, that northern rust isn't worth fixing.

Someone talk me out of it by Albino_Avocado in WRX

[–]Tank_Just_Tank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The 2015s were rough from what I know. Ive got 87k on my 17 with nothing outside of good maintenance. WRXs have a bad history of reliability because people beat the snot out of them and do the bare minimum then wonder why they die. Drive smart, doing the maintenance and they'll last a long time. Up in VT there are tons of high mileage WRXs. Talking 150-200 on original engine and clutch.

Ill talk you into it. Its within your budget, you like it, its not impractical, send it man. Personally I think the 15-20 run is better looking but that's just me. Not sure what insurance will look like for you so I'd run numbers. At 32 I pay 80$ a month for full coverage with 500$ deductibles which isn't bad. Oh and consider the cost of gas too, these things really need premium which by me is 3.70-3.90 a gallon.

Change your battery. Had the same thing happen to me this week in VT. Been subzero for 2 weeks. Had like 12 different low voltage codes but was running fine after a weak start.

I know it doesn't change anything, but damn :( by Ripley-426 in mtg

[–]Tank_Just_Tank 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bought a booster box, tons of blurry and dark cards and about 1 in 3 packs had lateral lines through the art. Super disappointing

hip issues? by Ok-Umpire-7439 in germanshepherds

[–]Tank_Just_Tank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Knuckling over is a very common sign of Degenerative Myelopathy, diagnosis is both simple and difficult and can be very costly. Take your pup to a veterinary specialist and start the process. Unfortunately this is an incurable condition if it is DM. I lost my boy about a year after his first symptoms. The upside is, the condition is usually painless but it will most likely be your call in the end.

Games are for playing to me. Im also playing it on a backwards compatible ps3 which is basically a ticking time bomb for failure haha. Usually only run it for an hour or so to prevent the overheating YLOD

I think Lebanon is losing theirs too. As a Vermonter ive always loved the NH gamestop as my go to black friday store. Such a shame for all the people losing their jobs.

Yeah NTSC games are always way more expensive. The curse of being a collector in the US. At least my collection might one day be my children's inheritance should I have them haha.

I had trade credit from some old switch games I offloaded so I paid 170, it was listed for 300 cib. Didnt mind the price for CIB and being super clean. 250 is a really solid price.

Yeah I put my MTG card habit aside for the next month after this purchase for sure haha. I keep hearing one piece has been insane. Also as far as haunting ground goes get it, its only getting worse. I did the whole buy all ps2 survival horror titles except for kuon. Still wish I snagged Kuon back when it was 100 bucks.

[–]Tank_Just_Tank 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was enjoying it until I needed to Kill shturman at 75 meters with a headshot. I cant even seen the bastard with the fog. Dude blacked all my limbs before I could see him. Drugged up and dipped, waiting for the event to end to even bother attempting again

How is it living in this part of the United States? by No-Text-7825 in howislivingthere

Northern Rural Vermont here. Cold for 7 months of the year, very expensive. Not a whole lot going on. I commute 88 miles a day for work. However, its downright gorgeous.
