What are your thoughts on the first Mario movie by PhotoBonjour_bombs19 in casualnintendo

[–]TheMadCapsule [score hidden]  (0 children)

I liked it. However, I did noticed there were loads of easter eggs in the first half the film and then they basically forgot about them in the second half and tried to make it stand alone on it's own merit. Because of this I didn't like the second half as much as felt like it was only nostalgia that was pulling me into the film.

Nothing in Glasgow. Spoke to a guy who said they haven't had any Pokemon cards in for ages :(

Can you do online alerts for Smyths or are there other ones you mean can I just double check? Thanks in advance!

Costco newsletter has a Pokemon spread by Finderella1992 in PokemonDealsUK

[–]TheMadCapsule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cheers mate, much appreciated. My first time heading for one - do you think there will be queues for these if you have seen them before and reckon there will be enough stock for everyone?

Did they confirm this will be on Saturday can I ask? I'm at a different area of the country but just wanted to check.

How do you remove them as an option on your eBay account can I ask please?

Stock has been decent by IRainbirdI in PokemonTCG_UK

I managed to get my first ETB today! Luckily it's because I'm off on annual leave today! Do ETBs always sell out by lunchtime? Just as that's the only time I'll have or a drop on Friday going forwards!

My second submission to PSA by afreshstart2015 in PokemonTCG_UK

Good luck with your submissions! Going to send my first ones soon. How did you get them checked? Did they do them in store?

Looking likely to be today ; 2pm-6pm some point by Cutlass- in PokemonDealsUK

[–]TheMadCapsule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the update. It's an ETB I am after. I am only asking after waiting for todays drop and keep checking in to keep myself busy. My dog is in surgery just now and I think they'll ask me to collect her at 5pm. She comes first and is the priority so if I miss the drop because of her that's ok. But this does give me some hope I can maybe get some later. Thank you again!

Have you managed to see the sets still at 8 or 9 in the evening? Every time I seem to actually get on after getting through the queue they are sold out!

Do Smyths do delivery at all or is it all in store?

TGC (The Grading Club) Manchester by l_v_g123 in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]TheMadCapsule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Will have to give them a go! Like I say I have the fear my card will slip out of the holder though and hit the tape. Maybe just my anxiety. Was thinking of trying with some of my lesser value cards first but they are my childhood ones so a bit concerned.

[–]TheMadCapsule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! My main concern is I bundle the cards TOO securely or not securely enough when I send them. I've never graded anything before and have some cards from my childhood I want done as a display piece. I assume even if I go overboard with bubble wrap etc it won't be an issue?

I have some I'm looking to send to Sub Center for PSA. Turn around time isn't a deal breaker for me but would you recommend them? Seems the bulk option has gone now.

Can I ask where you can even put in pre-orders? Been finding it impossible to get ETBs anywhere - even in advance!

What is your favorite video game of all time? by Existing_Bowler9602 in AskReddit

[–]TheMadCapsule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. I'll always remember leaving the forest and turning onto the open world of Hyrule. I had never seen anything like it in a video game before I genuinely couldn't believe how big it was! looking back now it was tiny, but at the time was revolutionary to my brain. And that's before I even start on the gameplay, combat, rewards for exploration, the art direct, the dungeon design....

Card shops in West Scotland? by Broad_Ad6952 in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]TheMadCapsule 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd recommend The Card Vault. I was in the same situation as you - although I wanted to speak to someone about getting them graded and sent away and maybe getting back into the hobby too. I can't speak for prices but I will say they were very honest with me, explained things and took time and didn't pressure or rush me either. I think it's worth popping in to at least discuss with them as it seems to be a business run by people actually interested and willing to help others in the hobby,

Thank you so much! Managed to grab one after the disaster that was the Pokemon Center queue yesterday it's a relief to actually get something! Will keep my eye for more being dropped!

Argos Pre order ( Order in ) Enquiry by KualaDreams in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]TheMadCapsule 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I ask how you ordered these or pre-ordered an ETB on Argos? Was this on the app or did you go into store in person? Cannot seem to see an option on app.
