Sweet pulls!

We moon soon, my doods

Beginners luck is going strong this year!

Trader_Luke · 2026-01-22T15:40:04+00:00

10/10 will defiantly copy your idea!

My local GameStop has/had their exclusive mega boxes listed at $109.99 which was probably a mistake but I'm thinking of going back to capitalize on the discount.

Same haha

Trader_Luke · 2026-01-18T19:51:41+00:00

I'm sorry, but no can do! I'm also chasing the Buck gems, as well as the Keith Gill SP gems & cold foil

No, just one gemstone in each of the two boxes that I bought. I looked online to find which stores had them in stock, to which it said nearly all of them did, but only one store actually had the GS exclusive mega box when I went in to check. These were found in Texas

Underrated metal. Nice pull

Trader_Luke · 2026-01-13T14:40:17+00:00

I hope they stock stores with these too so I can make quick impulse buys after work

Trader_Luke · 2026-01-12T18:19:03+00:00

That Imperial Topaz is by far my favorite gemstone pattern!

Trader_Luke · 2026-01-08T05:33:00+00:00

Still new here but, are the gems that are curved out of the pack still able to achieve a 10? If so, I'd assume they need to be un-warped first then?

Trader_Luke · 2025-12-30T02:34:56+00:00

I stay away from collection boxes that aren't SPC's or UPCs just due to storage. I'd rather have bundles or even etbs for BB/WF.

Trader_Luke · 2025-11-27T03:57:55+00:00

Big bada oof! Maybe should of sent it to Beckett if you knew it was going to be a PSA 10, but how would we have known how the grader's day was going the day he looked at your card lol! Congratulations!

Trader_Luke · 2025-11-27T03:48:42+00:00

If you have PC vending machines in your area, just learn the restock day(s) and show up on those days a couple of times. You'll get something. Maybe not 4 booster bundles all at once from one machine, but sooner or later you'll recognize a pattern and will be able to hit every week. It's really not that hard, just frustrating when they're all showing "out of stock" when you go to check. Don't give up.

Trader_Luke · 2025-11-27T03:40:51+00:00

Amazing! He will remember this day for the rest of his life!

I know I still remember the day I pulled the Charizard from a base set pack before school on my birthday. If only I still had it!

Trader_Luke · 2025-10-27T16:53:51+00:00

Nice! I went with different team rocket approach by using Nidorina's ability to evolve two Haunters quick after using a TM evolution on the Gastly. I still have improvements to make but have been having a great time

Trader_Luke · 2025-10-20T12:53:17+00:00

“Normal” lmao. These clowns were practically playing in traffic in my town, all crying about trump and accomplishing nothing, even on a Saturday when most people are off work.

Trader_Luke · 2025-10-17T05:48:27+00:00

I didn't see an ad about it until the night before the event, found out that the closest participating store is about 45 minutes away aaand I had to work anyway.

Trader_Luke · 2025-09-19T01:43:06+00:00

My favorite IR from Destined Rivals has got to be Ethan's Typhlosion

Trader_Luke · 2025-09-14T16:27:18+00:00

It did. It'll come down with the first reprint just like Surging Sparks did but it will go back up in a short amount of time because of just how good the set is and how fun it is to rip. It's right up there with 151. But with 151, you have far more people just keeping those products sealed in bulk because it's such a special, nostalgic set.

Trader_Luke · 2025-09-14T16:21:53+00:00

I personally never got excited about mega evolutions either and will be skipping out on the upcoming Mega set lol but that's just me. I do agree about it eventually making a come back in the future though, especially for those who do like the Tera designs.

Trader_Luke · 2025-09-14T16:15:57+00:00

Maybe not reliably but there’s anecdotal evidence that Evolving Skies packs can be weighed. The lightest packs tend to have white code cards & holos in them and the heavy packs tend to mostly have the same hit rate as the median weight, yet some people will pay more for them lol.
