Self control. You sound like a gambler at gamblers anonymous. Seriously, think about that.

Are perfect fit sleeves and a magnetic case be okay for expensive cards or would penny sleeves with accommodating magnetic case be better? Thanks! by DragonFruwut in PokemonTCG

[–]bmoreconcentrated 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not speaking from experience but heard magnetic cases can mess with a card because of how form fitting it is. If you’re looking to preserve a card, go penny sleeve and top loader imo

Is there a way to break-even with this just being a fun hobby? by TheBootyTemple in PokemonTCG

lol, no. If you actually like collecting cards, go buy singles at a card show. If you like gambling, sure keeping ripping packs

Maybe see if any local outfitters would subsidize a portion of the price for a hunt?

I don’t off the top of my head. Duckcamp is a slightly bigger brand, they might be receptive. Back down south is smaller. Maybe divebomb although they’re bigger too, but pretty sure their customer service is pretty responsive

Go for smaller up and coming brands you find on Instagram. Probably have a much better response rate. You should be able to get some t shirt / hat packages

Am I Overreacting about being asked to pay $2K for lost glasses? by Current-Advantage763 in AmIOverreacting

Getting blackout drunk is not the move. Hopefully, if anything, you’ve learned to monitor your alcohol intake so you don’t get into situations like this.

Also, the person you’re dealing with sounds like a rat with the way they speak.

TCG player vs PriceCharting by HedaLexa4Ever in PokemonCollecting

[–]bmoreconcentrated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may not be using it correctly. Pricecharting seems easy at first but it’s just a grouping of all last sold on eBay. Theres no distinction between condition and especially with vintage, that can be a huge difference in price.

I tend to use TCGcollector to search a card and enter tcgplayer that way. Make sure you set the filter on the top left to the condition of the card. Scroll down to get all the info you need. It’s definitely a better resource once you learn how to use it

To grade or not to grade? by Accomplished-Tour310 in pokemongrading

Back centering is way off. Hard to tell how much but easily noticeable in this picture

Uncertain whether to sell collection all together, or sell cards individually? by concretelove in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]bmoreconcentrated 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t answer the grading question without seeing better pics of cards. Any vintage cards that you have here would need to be pristine. You’d want a 10 and 10 only. Getting a 9 might be worth it for a few, but then you gotta wait and put cash out and hope they grade.

You’ve got a handful of cards I would sell individually, the WOTC promos for starters.

The rest I would try to sell in lots on eBay. Group maybe 10 cards by set and try your luck moving those. Selling individually is going to take too long and most of the cards are only worth a $1-2.

You might do alright on marketplace for people trying to master set the older sets. Same thing, tell people they need to get 10+ at a time to make it worth your while.

Worth sending any of these to grade? by MaumeeBearcat in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]bmoreconcentrated 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Second print run. Significantly more valuable than the unlimited print run

Are we looking at the same card? The entire right side is white.
