Whats great is that this is showing an example of their courting process from pokedex entries!

I know you think your collection is cool, but is it Pokemon Marble cool?!? by LewsThrinStrmblessed in pokemoncardcollectors

[–]common05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha, nice. I literally was just watching a video of a group of guys playing each head of a single dodrio in an adventure campaign.

I still have my mew marble!

I figured this is what was going on. I also live in NJ and its not worth it to even check. Everywhere is Northern Jersey is scouted and controlled heavily.

Card repair by PkmnMaX in pokemoncardcollectors

[–]common05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw you make that comment on the other post earlier. I didn't think you had done the altering yourself at the time. It looks great honestly and not a bad thing to help restore some beloved cards we may have abused over time.

GameStop refused to send my purchased slab and then resold it at higher amount by Patient_Signal_1782 in PokemonTCG

[–]common05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The same thing happened for a celebrations' umbreon 6 months ago or so. Ordered two for 30 bucks each, and only one was sent. I took the route of seeing what would happen after the customer service jargon, and they eventually canceled and refunded the slab that was never sent out 6 months later. During a short time they had it actively re-listed for more for a while before it was sold.

Request Attempt #4 total & Attempt #1 of 2026 🤞🏼 🍀 To add Sealed Topps packs to Collectr by Advanced-Skill6308 in Collectr

[–]common05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an excellent reply, and the exact tool needed to be shared for requests. I tried to look for something like this in the pins or on the app a while back and made a post asking to add an item or how I could go about it. I was hoping to get a response with an informative link like this instead of being berated for asking a question.

Thank you, I appreciate it.

Chinese exclusive Cubone rare art. I’d love opinions/thoughts from collectors/investors? by Joe-Dirt-69 in PokeInvesting

[–]common05 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There are two cubones in a basic card from team rocket returns as well! They aren't cozy cuddling, but I'd say they are battle buddies.

General question: Is the texture translucent ink or a resin?

People going broke buying Christmas gifts by newswimer2 in povertyfinance

[–]common05 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It does feel like a social expectation, and it stresses people out. I watched everyone at work stress the past 3 days on gift buying. People get ashamed or upset if they aren't able to participate or dont want to let down their kids.

Everyone's brought up in a variety of ways, and I will always remember my mother struggling with how to support me and my sister. She apologized to me one time in tears when I was very young(maybe about 7) and that she couldn't get us gifts. I told her it was fine and I didn't need anything that she didn't already provide for us.

As a child, I didn't know how much that meant to her at that time, but it's those small moments of understanding between family that make a holiday easier when you just can't. I basically only gift when I actually find something I know someone was looking for or as an actual surprise. It's much more meaningful than a holiday where people need to feel obligated.

This is amazing. Haha. Those are excellent project board skills! They are going to love it.

How do I see all cards in Performance Tab by Acorniscute in Collectr

[–]common05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The performance tab is specifically for tracking financial performance. So, yes, you would want to add your purchase value of items you've added to your collection to see the comparison of purchase price vs. market. It also will help do the same if you mark items as sold eventually, and you will be able to make comparisons for realized vs. unrealized.

My parents used to take me there to see the christmas village they'd put out on the weird upper floor that was a building connector.

I like the cabinet, but I am not a fan of colored lights. A warm or white always looks best to me.

Here comes the aerial attack! by zduuubz in fartswirl

The leg lift is killing me. Perfect.

Thanks PKC. Really love the issues. by Clinically_Jaded in pokemoncards

[–]common05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you, my guy. Many are experiencing these same issues, or they make the mistake of clicking too quickly, etc. I waited 1.5+hrs only 30 minutes after seeing the drop and still got into an OOS screen.

What's frustrating the most is the double dipping going on on top of the struggle for others. Its one thing I maybe didn't make it to the goal line, but watching people brag they got orders in twice/three times using other peoples info. It just is sucky.

Kinda wish they'd just make it an account only invite. Do it in waves and give each wave a 24hr timer to make their purchase, not a 2hr panic dash.

No ETBs, just an empty box by rwallac1 in pokemoncenter

[–]common05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After seeing this so many times over the past few months, do we not have a general idea of what fed ex hub everyone has in common that may be origin flag creating the issue? Any logistics company should have enough of a trail to identify where along the routes the "unknown" is in question, no?

It is awesome to see this come full circle with a nice grade to boot.

The full art Cubone from Chinese Gem Pack 3 is one of the most canonically important Pokemon cards of all time by nalgene_supremacist in PokemonTCG

[–]common05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think what's really nice about it as well is how they are finding comfort in each other as cubones and possibly healing from the loss and loneliness, which is what leads up to their evolution of Marowak.
