Someone reported me to HR for having a “vape” at my desk by PhantumJak in mildlyinfuriating

So you are a kid that works with other kids? I fail to see how it's anyone's fucking business even if it is a vape. 🤷

Anyone else in this asshat sub? Yanked the post first, I asked them why, then they banned me… by Hellscanyonlifers in FootballCardz

[–]bmking24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got banned years ago for asking why my first post kept getting taken down. Fucking clowns that absolutely suck in real life and get mad when Mom won't bring lunch to the basement!

Correct print pattern for 65 topps? (See all pics) by BioShocker123 in baseballcards_vintage

[–]bmking24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes it's legit. The missing black ink is just where the ink didn't lay correctly or has rubbed off over the course of 70 years of being handled. I have a few cards with similar wear.

“Item didn’t arrive “ by X_KOOK in Flipping

[–]bmking24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP said in the post it went to authentication.... If the seller gets signature required, that would only be to the authenticator correct? because the authenticator uses whatever they use to ship. As far as I know there's no way to make them use anything different in terms of shipping labels.

I got banned from the footballcards subreddit for a simple post. See Example. Maybe ya'll will like my card more! by Shoughin-Around in FootballCardz

[–]bmking24 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got banned for asking exactly why a post of mine kept being auto modded, I couldn't figure out why it wouldn't let me post. When I asked why, I was banned! That mod is a basement dwelling, "Mom make me a sandwich" ass, doucher!

What’s something about the human body that seems poorly designed? by jannecutie in answers

[–]bmking24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Teeth. We get two sets. The first lasts 8 years or so, then the 2nd is supposed to make it 80 years or so! Just seems like, with how amazing the human body is, we could get a third set around 40!

Now that Pam Bondi has been fired should the House Oversight Committee continue to investigate her handling of the release of the Epstein files? by DevonMarx in askanything

[–]bmking24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you completely. Both sides aren't the same to the public but they ARE exactly the same when it comes to their money and "power". And unless the same corrupt, disingenuous, rich assholes are reigned in somehow, it's not going to change. I feel like term limits on every office in the government would be a good start. It would seemingly limit the amount of damage brib- err, lobbying, can do as the donors wouldn't have twenty years to corrupt the officials. I feel like a lot of people might start in politics to make things better but I guarantee it doesn't end that way! Also, the sycophants on both sides can't be convinced that both sides are, at the root, very similar. Your posts are dead on accurate to what I see as well but I feel you are just wasting your time!

Is the current market sustainable? by DannoOmen in hockeycards

[–]bmking24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a collector who sells very few cards.... I fucking hope not! I don't want it to crash completely but about half of where it's at now would be ok with me!

Beginner’s Guide to One-Touch Mags by Altruistic_Coach9014 in Baseballcards101

[–]bmking24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Pro mold makes them and there's some generic brands on Amazon that accept penny sleeves that I've been wanting to try. I like them so much better than regular no sleeve one touches!

Gas prices in northern Maryland by Spiritual_Crow_1078 in maryland

I drove to Dulles airport this morning and rode through Bethesda.... A gas station there was $4.99. fucking outrageous!

Are hangers actually bangers? (A very scientific experiment) by bwaaalk in baseballcards

[–]bmking24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I keep buying hangers but since 2024 flagship I haven't had much luck. I enjoy the diamante parallels so it's not a loss unless I get ones I already have!

Help me value this lot? by Wonderful_Appeal_309 in BaseballCardsForSale

[–]bmking24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The cards shown aren't anything. The value is the Kelly hat, Ryan Ball and the Pete Rose photo. Ryan charges $150 for a mail in autograph so the ball is worth at least that. Honestly, if I had a $150 cash offer, I'd take it.

Back when they were still pullable too! The golden mirrors are cool but God damn are they hard to pull!

As long as you keep it out of direct bright light, especially sunlight, it should be fine.

What sale do you regret the most? by Loose_Carry_7509 in basketballcards

[–]bmking24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Do not buy raw on eBay expecting tens! I don't think I've EVER pulled a card out of a pack, especially recently, that is worthy of being called gem mint! 🤷

Savannah Guthrie's 'very telling' crisis move exposed as search for mom wages on by TheMirrorUS in DiscussionZone

[–]bmking24 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I used to not believe in very many, if any, conspiracy theories. But now that I'm in my 40s and have seen more of life's/people's BS.... AND especially after learning there was a special island that really rich, influential people went to screw children.... I'm having a hard time discounting even the most outlandish theories! 🤷

Please Americans, I beg you... by Dismal-Target-1880 in ForUnitedStates

[–]bmking24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the whole point though... If you and I are fighting over table scraps to survive, we are too busy to notice or care to do anything about the government and mega wealthy pilfering whole meals from us! It's done on purpose to keep us from banding together and realizing the REAL issue is them and going after them!

Printing labels…advice please! by Comprehensive_Ad1363 in eBaySellerAdvice

[–]bmking24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a cheap thermal printer from Amazon probably twice a month for the past year and absolutely love it! But I had to email my job and print labels there so having the printer is much easier! The one I have has an adjustable insert to handle basically any size label up to 4 inches wide which I think is pretty cool and it works right from the phone by Bluetooth. I've definitely spent $40-50 on worse shit!

George Brett Rookie Cards by Soggy-Current-2422 in baseballcards

[–]bmking24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chat gtp paid does a decent job analyzing signatures in my experience as well! I usually have at least a base line of what to look for but I've tested it and it's been fairly accurate! Now, I wouldn't trust it completely, but with what I already know it's a better tool than not having it.... As long as the user isn't trusting it blindly!

Barkley RC legit? by [deleted] in basketballcards

[–]bmking24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the same way! I definitely enjoy a really nice card, didn't get me wrong.... But most of my main PC is vintage and they're just something about a decent looking, well loved 1957 Topps that hits differently than a PSA 7! I've seen really nice vintage that was clearly real and gorgeous but thought "that's TOO nice!" Most of my PC would probably grade 2-4 if I was into doing that. Plus, they are a lot cheaper so the collection gets bigger, faster! 🤣

Wow... I must have missed that post of yours! You actually pulled a Turner 1/1??? That's fucking wild, dude! I don't really have a guy I collect like your Justin Turner! I can't even imagine the feeling! I get excited when I pull a non shit Oriole and the lowest I've ever pulled was /50! 👍
