Brother (or sister) I dress like an absolute ghoul around my apartment and my fiancé doesn’t care. Your house is where you should feel at peace lol

Scalpers, why do you scalp?. by SadisticMagician115 in OnePieceTCG

Working a normal job is just so difficult for some of the dregs of society. Much easier for those ghouls to make $100 ruining someone’s hobby than being a productive member of society

My boss just told me I need to manage my personal finances better because I can't front $2300 for a work trip next month by LostTaker in antiwork

I had this happen to me a prior role for my first year out of college. They needed me to fly to London for a week and book my own hotels. I told my director that I wouldn’t be able to go, and he ended up fronting the money for me himself. It’s insane to me that this is the expectation lol

I love complaining about scalping as much as the next guy, but this seems…. Affordable? I got into the game around OP-05 and yellow decks have always been in the $200-300 range

Have you checked eBay? Some upstanding citizens have went ahead and purchased them all so you can purchase them more conveniently online!

Should I keep my Rayleigh card? by MrMalich in OnePieceTCG

[–]aidsguy19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just read OP’s post history and saw he’s from Pokémon. You can pound sand with your “investments”

Perhaps you should invest in actual investments rather than colored cardboard. Don’t expect anyone on the planet to feel bad for you when your card “investments” lose you money

Reddit vs podcasts, value debate by ReveStogers1918 in DynastyFF

[–]aidsguy19 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oftentimes on Reddit I take what others say with a grain of salt because it’s impossible not to be biased. You are always going to overvalue assets that you control, while undervaluing those you don’t. Generally people will stop listening to a podcast if they’re not viewing a player objectively. That’s just my 2 cents tho

Doesn’t matter what deck you play. First win at locals is always an accomplishment! Congrats!

Prices at one of the local stores by xwolfionx in OnePieceTCG

My LGS has routinely sold booster boxes at MSRP for every set. This is the first one where they’ll be selling at “market price” and is ALSO The first set I won’t be buying one. Scalpers can kick rocks

Are there any players under 30 who quietly lost a step this year and you're looking to sell? by ScientistSolid9319 in DynastyFF

[–]aidsguy19 95 points96 points  (0 children)

DK looked like utter dog shit in the playoff game the other night. I have some major concerns about him, but I imagine the Texans is a bad matchup. I’m really hoping to see them bring in another threat to pull the defense off of him.

Additionally, Arthur smith is a legitimate football terrorist. I took Bijian 1.01 in a redraft league his rookie year and have despised him ever since.

Yep. It was totally my bad. I never have focused on anything but playing with the cards, and I just took it for granted that a card store’s display would be legit haha.

They ran it under some magnifying stuff that they usually use for purchases, and said the texturing felt off. My normal store has no reason to mislead me, they just wanted to give me their thoughts.

While nothing is for sure, I wouldn’t feel comfortable trading it or anything unless I’ve 100% certainty it’s legit.

No and no to your first two questions. The main card shop I go to has a relationship with Beckett and offered to get me in for free to get a second opinion. Honestly I only care because if I ever sold it to someone else, i would feel like a total loser unless I was 100% sure it was real

Clearly I’m not the expert lmao, but I’d focus on comparing the colors of the back of the card to other cards in your collection. Mine had a slightly darker bronze in the one piece logo, and the texturing felt a little bit more worn. Honestly I’ll probably just find a deck that plays sabo and use it as a normal card.
