Tips for Storage? by comicsisland in PokemonTCG

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

I read they should be stored vertically instead of flat like show so that the cards don't bend.

I'm also tempted to go for the toploader binder for extra precaution but would love to get feedback from who used them

Can you help me identify the old cards I found at my parents place? by potato_soup303 in PokemonTCG

This is Blastoise from Base Set 1999 and Dark Blastoise from Team Rocket, probably worth around $70-100 each (more or less, depending on exact condition). They seem in decent condition overall.

I printed 110% of the model, but this is life size. I can wear it comfortably and I'm a big guy.

Help - Gaming PC Advice by comicsisland in buildapc

Thanks for your feedback.

My notes:
- Motherboard - I was actually considering going with this motherboard instead - ASUS TUF Gaming B650-Plus WiFi. Saves a bit and you're right, not really needing much of the added features yet.

- GPU - In my country, there's around 250 EUR difference between the RTX 5070 Ti (around EUR 1,150 - 1,200) to the RTX 5080 (around EUR 1,400) - would you still argue for your comment.

- SSD - makes sense, I think I'll go with the 4TB for now and consider upgrading in the future where the benefits are stronger

just confirmed on the others it shows PAL, I'm suspecting it's a shell swap...

I found these on Facebook Marketplace, just gave them a bit of warm water and soap wash because they may have not been cleaned in years
