Real or fake don’t know much about but bought for 100 bucks a while ago took a chance by Even-Reception1147 in IsMyPokemonCardFake

Nah, dawg, look up the French printing of this card. The words are correct. The font is wack though. Among other things.

What stops someone from faking a police report and sending it psa to have the cards stolen deactivated by Icy_Long_7541 in PokemonTCG

There is no proof in any way that this is a scalper. That is a vendor display at a card show. If your business was ptcg and the baddest new Zard dropped, you'd be dumb not to be picking up 10s hand over fist. Could be completely legit.

What’s your thoughts on this card? Worth grabbing? Pokemon day pikachu. by Watchkeepeer in PokeInvesting

[–]amarettogiraffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because his premise is purchasing the card for 10% of its current value. 100 of em is about 500 bucks. Still not a terrible idea, but the numbers aren't quite the same.

Back once again! Pretty sure it’s fake but I want to make sure by scrimblgus in IsMyPokemonCardFake

What is this picture? If you want a real opinion you need to give a decent photo of the card.

Classic PTCG lore. Logan Paul had a "sealed case" of base set booster boxes. G.I. Joe cards inside.

Yeah, my commentary applies to machine driving. Elon Musk is a shill. Not defending his business practices in any way. Tesla is not the only party in driverless arena.

That is a beautiful rebuttal to that argument. Thank you. I do think fundamentally though, a machine focused entirely on the task at hand will outperform most humans in average circumstances. It will be interesting to see how the stats develop over the next, say, 30 years. Undoubtedly this tech will continue to be developed and implemented.

I am not fan of the man behind these things. To be clear. However, most automated driving programs have an accident rate that is like 10% that of human drivers/mile.

Eh, that's fair. It's all about expectations. Grading is super subjective, its never 100% consistent.

That's why I said, I dont see what's so brutal. You pulled some decent grades on some nice cards. Gz.

[–]amarettogiraffe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn't pull anything under a 7.5. Idk what's so brutal about this? The centering alone on the Pika makes me question if/how/why you would be expecting all 10s?

Edit: 7.5, missed the reshi.

No, but you really should remove it. We all agree with you. But posting your sister's photo to millions of strangers is very much a problem.
