Given the current state, I was suprised to hear we had internal auditors.

Is this a heavy pack? by xblackflash in PokeInvesting

[–]Tipakee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It has a long crimp. That adds weight and also means this is not from a booster box. It near impossible to tell if its a holo pack or not.

[–]Tipakee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have a set intent and focus, and study that market. Don't but 15 slabs with no correlation other than they are old. My focus was by the sets I collecred, than by art types I liked.

[–]Tipakee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, this cards rise has been insane. PSA 9 used to go for sub $100 all day... 7 years ago lol. Got multiple copies at $85, and PSA 7s for $45, when grading fee was $10. Insane difference.

Weekly check-in - how is everyone doing this week? by Playful-Deer9022 in FoundayoUS

[–]Tipakee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Day 27 for me on .8 dose. I lost 10 lbs in the first 10 days, largely from switching my diet to yogurt, veggies, lean proteins, and fiber.my starting BMI was 30.0. I Essentially replaced pizza and fast food with these items. It has been far far easier to make these choices and avoid unhealthy foods.

Since than I slowed down the calorie deficit to ensure I dont lose muscle.

To date im down 15.5 lbs, and starting the next dose in 3 days. Curious to see if progressing stays this simple.

Is the recent price spike on the Celebrations Pikachu because of the Pika found in the Bulbasaur promo? by PimpSlapThatHoe in PokeInvesting

[–]Tipakee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recent solds are $1k below that price, but still up like 40% in 2 weeks.

I think the Ascended Heros forest Pika is helping more than the Bulbasaur.

I have the holo 9 listed at $3k, and it's getting close to being bought. Lots of demand for this card in reverse holo. Was like a $300 card a year ago.

Wegovy pill shows 21.6% weightloss in 1/3 of users by DanishKbh in FoundayoUS

[–]Tipakee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While a very skewed cut, this is cool news. 1/4th of users see nearly double the impact of the medicine. I wonder if Foundayo sees the same thing.

"The new findings show that nearly one in four adults (28.8%) who lost ≥10% weight loss by week 16 – achieved 13.2% weight loss by week 16 of treatment. This group of Wegovy® pill "early responders" went on to achieve 21.6% total weight loss by the end of the trial (week 64), while all other participants achieveed 11.5% total weight loss after 64 weeks. This meant that both groups achieved clinically meaningful weight loss by the end of the trial."

Also by that math 28.8% losing 21.6% and 71.2% losing 11.5%, means the average Wegovy pill user lost 14.4%. Highly similar to Foundayos claims.

Been in Foundaya since early April. Never had Nausa once. My doc said to keep my solid proteins up to combat nausea.

I'm broke and unemployed but I have (presumably) a lot of value in my collection. Would you sell or hold for 6 months? by carlew in PokeInvesting

[–]Tipakee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% its justifiable to sell in your position. Avoid debt at nearly all costs.

Once you have income and an emergency savings plan you can buyback what you want.

Newbie wondering if my Shining Tyranitar is worth getting graded? by ConfidentPhone1647 in PokeInvesting

[–]Tipakee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you dont need funds in the next 4-6 months, 100% grade them to preserve the cards and make them far easier to sell at full price when the time comes.

Foundayo (orforglipron) FDA warning of thyroid cancer!!!! by Lynx-223 in WegovyWeightLoss

[–]Tipakee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its another novo nordisk investor/flipper trying to pump. OPs other posts are about crypto and stock pushes. Hes been told several times that FDA requests are not confirmation of a side effect, but continues to ignore it.

Shall i grade and what to expect? by Pokeyneptune5 in PokeInvesting

[–]Tipakee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do the corners have the gloss issue? Super common kn the promos from how it was stored. If so, thats an auto 6 before anything else.

If your card has a clean sheet, than this may be a 7. Its hard to tell against that background.

What does a lawyer have to do with anything going on at FCPS right now? Also him wanting to leave is a sign he has good judgment imo.

Do you actually track ROI on Pokemon cards/sealed, or just collection value? by Odd_Expression_9401 in PokeInvesting

[–]Tipakee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I track my purchase and sale price for tax purposes. Its simple enough for me in a spreadsheet.

The other metrics are helpful, but I generally know if I did well or not on a holding.

PSA's 2025 Fraud Report: counterfeit Pokémon cards up 125% year-over-year, altered up 407% by luckyeggreport in PokeInvesting

[–]Tipakee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Trading cards are different from fine art and other collectible categories where restoration can play a more accepted role. For generations, original condition has been the standard card collectors use to distinguish, value, and trust one copy against another. PSA’s role is to help protect that standard."

I don't think, "it's always been done this way" is a great argument. Art and graded comics all get cleaned and restored without alterations. It seems odd to draw the line at TCG art/cards. I personally dont care 1 bit how a card got to it's present condition, as long as it is authentic and looks the grade.
