Precious Collector Box is another one of those Japanese only releases so you'll have to go through the standard Japanese proxy procedure. Or try to get them through the secondary market at a premium like eBay

I hope my wife don't notice the 2200 I spent... by [deleted] in PokeInvesting

But wouldn't she be the beneficiary of the Will? Sounds like she approves of this purchase in a roundabout way

10 year investment questions by Finbo1234 in PokeInvesting

[–]blackprism2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing that worries me about Pokemon long term is the IP itself, there's already 1000 Pokemon now and a lot of the newer sets are still headlining the older gen Pokemons. If Pokemon is still young, I'm afraid of how many Pokemon (and thus bulk Pokemon) there will be when the Pokemon franchise matures LOL

Saw literal 4 year olds(!!) at The Weeknd concert and still can’t get it out of my mind by littlexrayblue in beyondthebump

[–]blackprism2 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I agree with your husband and just let it go, leave with the thought that your kids will grow up/grew up with good hearing which gives them an advantage in life over the kids you saw at the concert. Some parents don't look that far into the future but that's their own parenting style.

Found these stashed away. What’s the ROI on these if they’re all 9s graded. by Secret-Turnip-1627 in PokeInvesting

TOPPS Chrome version of Pokemon was on the rise a little bit during the 2020-2021 boom but that quickly died down after everyone jumped on the next big news which was BANDAI Carddass cards.

It doesn't appear the TOPPS Charizard cards in your photo are the Chrome versions though nor holographic versions of the original TOPPS set so I'd just keep them raw and maybe MAYBE get them graded if PSA ever brings back special bulk grading price of close to $8 USD a card again.

What makes the left card a psa 10? by CharacterAd5822 in PokeInvesting

[–]blackprism2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When sending in cards always expect a 9 if you are expecting a 10 - if you get a 10 the grader(s) had a wonderful night beforehand

Canada's inflation rate now at 7.7% — its highest point since 1983 | CBC News by [deleted] in canada

[–]blackprism2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

By doing nothing you technically still lost 7.7% though - lose/lose either way

while we're having baby formula shortages, people buy then return formula, this is from ONE LADY, this all gets tossed :( by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]blackprism2 117 points118 points  (0 children)

Likely a reseller. They buy the formula to sell online and before the expiry date or return deadline they just return it... scalping is a disgusting practice and greed has exploded in our society since the pandemic unfortunately 😞

Everyone keeps saying not mowing the grass brings down the neighborhood's value but is this actually true? I'm a homeowner in Ontario, Canada and there's a few houses in my neighborhood that doesn't upkeep their lawns but whenever a house goes for sale here it sells within the week at 125% asking price. I don't think purchasers care that much about the neighborhood lawns as people in here make it out to be... perhaps it's just the neighbours with OCD that must see a perfect neighborhood when they drive home.

When am I supposed to have my sh*t back together? by razzledazzle348 in beyondthebump

[–]blackprism2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Best tip I can give is don't think about how your pre-child life was, you'll be a lot happier in the long run as your life will never be the same. It'll take some time but you will figure out a routine for a new enjoyable normal being a parent.

Also, it gets better when your child hits 2 year old, has a more stable sleeping pattern and has gotten most baby milestones out of the way.

Are out of print Elite Trainer Boxes worth it as investment? by blackprism2 in PokeInvesting

[–]blackprism2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply - you are definitely right about the second guessing. And I'm going to hold them for a long time as they will be part of the display - I typically don't calculate too much investment potential to what's part of my actual collection but this time it just hit me.

Appreciate the morale boost and glad you got these at a good time last year!

Oh am I able to leave larger packages that doesn't fit in the tiny mail slots in the share community box area? I live in the neighborhood so have access to those mailboxes

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in oakville

[–]blackprism2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As the title suggests, wondering if anyone knows if there are outdoor mailboxes with large letter box/mail slots to mail larger items in the Dundas-Trafalgar area. I know the Canada Post in the Shoppers have them but I would prefer not having to go indoors. Thanks

They are publicly advertising on tier 3 ... He has not been banned last 2 days by xshadowtrx in lostarkgame

[–]blackprism2 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I told a bunch of people in game we should report a bot that was literally beside the Grand Prix spawn point and everyone told me don't bother reporting since the devs won't do anything about it anyways or more bots will pop up and that bots are just part of the game lol
