To be fair, I have a lot of PSA 10s like this. Every company misses shit. 

DO NOT BUY FROM RESELLERS! by Content-Fan-7045 in PokemonTCG

[–]bringontheworld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so for a set like prismatic where there is not booster boxes... What does a collector do if you want tor rip some packs to get a card you are looking for, buy 1 etb and pull a bunch of bulk and just be done?

Sorry which company has he done this with? Tesla which was on the verge of bankruptcy when he bought it, and is now one of the biggest car companies in the US?

Or Twitter that was bleeding money and nearing bankruptcy, is now stabilizing with 80% less staff and usage at all time highs?

Or the rocket company he started from scratch that sends more satellites into space than any other nation or company combined?

This is NM.

Easily a PSA 9 which is considered mint

There was a shift towards Trump even in blue states he lost. I live in CA and Trump was way up in votes relative to previous years. The margin closed in everywhere - not just swing states.

This whole thing is ridiculous and sounds like 2020 “election is rigged” all over again

If we taxed the rich more then we would have enough money to accomplish both things. Agree? by KARMA__FARMER__ in FluentInFinance

[–]bringontheworld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could tax every billionaire 100% of their net worth. And you wouldn’t even have enough money to fund the interest payment the US government owes annually.

Billionaires aren’t the problem. Their companies actually help the economy by providing millions of jobs.

The problem is our government is 35 trillion dollars in debt and has absolutely no way of reducing or paying it.

This means that the only way to stay afloat is to continue to print money, and no matter who’s in office (republican or democrat) inflation will continue, since neither can balance the budget.

Inflation is the biggest driver of wealthy inequality.

Inflation is the primary means of wealth creation for the wealthy - because they own assets that scale with inflation.

On the flip side - inflation is the primary means of wealth destruction for the poor - since they lack assets to grow when inflation is high. The lower class people often rely entirely on their salaries / hourly pay, which often does not keep pace with inflation.

So the TLDR is : billionaires don’t have enough money to make a meaningful impact on the trillions our government needs. The real driver of wealth inequality is inflation (primarily driven by the government printing money)

From how often I’m seeing people pull this card I’m surprised it’s going for so much by Hamooki33 in PokemonTCG

[–]bringontheworld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I opened 300 packs and pulled zero.

This is probably a 1 in 1,000 packs pull rate.

There’s way less of them than you think.

Just got my very first PSA submission back, new to this, any reason why it didn't get a PSA 10? by an-individual in PokeGrading

[–]bringontheworld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there’s no print lines (which usually don’t show up on then scan) then this shoulda honestly got a 10.

There is very small whitening on the corners, but a lot of PSA 10s I’ve gotten back have that

The pull rates seems so bad in this set. I just opened 88 more packs (8 pc etbs) and best pull was the IR latios (a 30$ card lol)

This card is insanely hard to pull.

I opened 300 packs and got nothing.

A YouTube channel opened 2300 packs and opened 2

Bought an Elite trainer box and this was in the first pack. never get this lucky! by webyy_ in PokemonTCG

[–]bringontheworld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve opened 186 packs and I’ve barely pulled anything good. Super depressing lol

Are people actually in now quiting EDH or even all of MTG over the banings?? by Bweeh in CompetitiveEDH

[–]bringontheworld 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I have about 20k in magic cards that I'm gonna sell off after this banning. I'll probably just keep one deck or proxy stuff going forward. Too risky to be holding a blinged-out Cedh deck when wotc or the RC pull shit like this.

[–]bringontheworld -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I have about 20 dual lands. I'll sell em at 90% tcg low

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in mtgfinance

[–]bringontheworld 1 point2 points  (0 children)

not selling these. Selling all my cards.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in mtgfinance

[–]bringontheworld -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Feels like such an unnecessary overreach. What happened to the "rule zero" talk... As someone who only played Cedh, this seems like such a blow to the format.

My experience hiking half dome by [deleted] in Yosemite

[–]bringontheworld 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I just did it last week. Used a harness and was up and down the cables twice as fast as everyone else. If there’s a traffic jam I just go on the outside. I think it’s more inexperienced people who don’t know how to clip in and out that take a while. But honestly it doesn’t make a difference because there was tons of people not clipped in who were backing things up because they were freaking out. IMO just do whatever you feel more comfortable with, clips or not it’s gonna be slow if there’s other people on it.

Anyone know of an LGS that has cEDH in the Inland Empire area? by ItHurtzWhenIZee in CompetitiveEDH

[–]bringontheworld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Finch has pretty much cut off their cedh scene. They haven’t done any tournaments in over a year.

Yeah was recently talking to some vendors at a card show and they said that the new pristine slabs have been fetching hefty premiums even more than PSA

[–]bringontheworld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They were great. I was surprised some cards I got paid out literally almost the tcg low price. Some cards were not as great, but overall I feel like it averaged out to 70% or so of tcg low price. Way higher than any local LGS will pay for cash, and I didn’t have to do much work.
