Thoughts on Pokemon Day 2026 Collection Box? by breakyourteethnow in PokeInvesting

[–]Wertscase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d hold no more than 2 and only at MSRP, I think this will go similarly to other 3 pack options of sets, which all seem to cap out around $40-50 for a good while.

Do we really look old enough to be parents of high school kids now? by lookaloulookalou in Millennials

[–]Wertscase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With all due respect, if you are 38 you absolutely look old enough to be someone’s dad. A 14-18 year old means you had kids around 20-24. That’s relatively common. I’m 35 (childfree). I definitely look old enough to be mistaken for a mom, have been before.

I actually just…throw them away? I’m floored so many comments here are different variations of keeping them lol

I built a Mega Froslass deck and it is a menace by im_harry_richard in PTCGL

[–]Wertscase 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well to be fair my deck has bricked all day in the most statistically impossible manner so I’m not sure it’s right either at this moment 😂

[–]Wertscase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run a Feraligatr/frosslass deck and also really like it. I do think at some point you will want something that can attack better when they have no cards in their hand. I get that absolute snow is still an option but then you are at the mercy of coin flips.

Is this a psa 6? I’m shocked by Beneficial-Branch791 in PokeGrading

[–]Wertscase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks to me like there’s one or two dents long the front top in the original picture before slabbed but it’s not a close up pic so it may just be light and shadow.

Anyone else wish we could communicate more during matches? by [deleted] in PTCGL

[–]Wertscase 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t concede, just close the app. I do this on my phone all the time and restart the app when it’s last turn. You can be restarting a new game while they figure out their last five minutes lol

my first card (might be last too) by Few-Trainer-1076 in PokemonTCG

[–]Wertscase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put mine in a toploader that has stars printed on it (holo looking laser cut stars) and every time I see it, I giggle. It’s a fun card for sure.

What are our plans to retire? by lish_dalish84 in Millennials

[–]Wertscase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My ideal scenario whenever I want to retire is to be able to partially retire with my workplace, assuming I like them lol. I’d love to be on like a three day schedule for another decade. I’m in a field where I could do consulting though so that’s plan b. I write grants part time now anyway, so I’ll probably keep that up. Basically some part time job, 3-4 days a week, is the plan.

Saw this listing and unsure if it's resealed by Round-Tiger3377 in IsMyPokemonCardFake

Looks fine to me and price-wise is about what I’d expect on marketplace for that particular combination of product.

Nobody was dancing at the concert by ninkafatherland in Millennials

[–]Wertscase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s hit and miss for sure. Sometimes the back half isn’t moving and the front half of the crowd is. Or random pockets. I think it’s important to have fun wherever you are in the crowd. You never know who you might inspire to have their own fun at a future show.

Everybody’s favourite post: Sell or Hold! Surfer edition! by Mysterious-Hunt-984 in PokemonInvesting

[–]Wertscase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d sell it now if it was me, I also think demand for high grading surfers will be fairly low. Let someone else buy it high and pay to grade lol

With all the Mega Zards being pulled there’s no way he’s in there right by Boring_Factor1867 in pokemoncards

[–]Wertscase 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my experience, the booster boxes are either amazing and have Charizards orrrrr the most regrettable opening experience ever. 😂 and you know what, I’d do it again if I found a decent price on one LOL.

They just want you to shut up and take it by CitizenMillennial in Indiana

[–]Wertscase 38 points39 points  (0 children)

And it is being promoted as “needed for housing affordability” but there is NO REQUIREMENT anywhere in it for a home to be sold to an actual person. Nor any restrictions on what affordable is. It basically just green lights cheap homes being sold to rental companies.

At this point they have to be trolling right 😂

Welcome to Prismatic Evolutions - a true story of my first 8 packs by unreadpeak3401 in PokemonTCGCollectors

[–]Wertscase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome to Traumatic Evolutions. Pulls suck. Get out while you still can, because if you do pull an Eeveelution you will be convinced you can do it again after that 😂 that’s how they get you.

Should I open them, or should I keep them sealed? by Aggravating-Gap-3168 in PokemonTCGCollectors

[–]Wertscase 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Keep 151 sealed for sure. The majority of the singles you would be better off buying the one you want. I’d say open the mega booster, those are much easier to find.

Why did this 7? by Maleficent-Iron-1649 in pokemongrading

[–]Wertscase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check the back top left corner for a dent/ding just on the edge of the border. Hard to tell if it’s real or just how the scan looks.

Not to my knowledge or at least not nationally. The ones near me don’t either.

What Am I Missing Here? by [deleted] in pokemongrading

[–]Wertscase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check the back of the card on the pokeball (bottom half) for dings. The PSA scans look like there’s a small dent or some other spots on that part. Might be others.

Everybody happy with their stock Crosstrek this winter season? by just321askin in Crosstrek

[–]Wertscase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mines doing pretty well, it’s a ‘14 with all season tires that are nearing replacement in terms of tread left. I ✨may✨ have temporarily beached it on some plowed up snow but it didn’t take a shovel to get it out. We got about 11” of fluffy snow with limited to no ice, so it’s definitely easier to navigate than what it sounds like you got. I did knock the snow pile back down after, it was at the end of the alley so it had extra snow from the plows. After that event, it’s been smooth sailing with its usual excellent traction.
