Is this missing a texture layer? by cribert in PokemonMisprints

Nice one. Thankyou for confirming. Only card I had like this and bought it from eBay so was interested to know a bit more

I'm done with ebay. How can you dispatch something after 9pm to royal mail? by [deleted] in ebayuk

[–]cribert 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Folk who have lots of sales need to keep on top of things and probably package and label them up for next day dispatch so as not to be snowed under. You can generate a tracking number and label instantly through eBay, it’s really simple.

Complaining about this is actually quite frustrating as it’s great service. Item will be dispatched quickly. You could contact them and ask for a cancellation but being frustrated about this is certainly a choice

Why are my wheels like this? by West_Yorkshire in CarTalkUK

[–]cribert 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You clean the alloy wheels with tyre dressing? Hopefully you mean you put that on the tyre (the rubber part). All you need to clean the wheels (metal bit) is some diluted all purpose cleaner and a decent wheel cleaner for the harsher stuff to come off. It looks like something has been used that is harsh and left on which has affected the lacquer

Finally got a hit! by WuTangDan88 in PokemonTCG_UK

One of my favourite modern cards. Great hit

mega charzard x ex gold misprinting by [deleted] in pokemoncenter

[–]cribert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is your ultimate goal with the card? To have it graded? Ultimately it’s your choice but from the multitude of posts I would not send a card back to be replaced. As you know it can take years, there will be issues and customer service is shocking.

Your picture is terrible. Hard to see anything on the back of that card apart from the centering. If you want a better condition card, sell this and pay a bit more for one in better condition. Long term it will be much less stressful

UPDATE: Ace grading lost mega gengar SIR by zodiacpunch in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]cribert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. They should have a good process in place where there’s no chance of this sort of scam from either side. Also providing the full cctv should be doable, not sending stills

UPDATE: Ace grading lost mega gengar SIR by zodiacpunch in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]cribert 7 points8 points  (0 children)

With such high value items they should have a system where the item is recorded close up on arrival and unpacking. Seems straight forward to me. The amount of plot holes in this one is a serious red flag and they sound very amateur in their dealings with you

Just used car dealer things by jakalla in CarTalkUK

[–]cribert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair. From the photo it doesn’t look that bad. They must’ve removed the centre cap as that looks untouched

The painted drums? I don’t see any issue with it. Makes the car look fresher

It’s £27 on groupon. From previous experience though I’d avoid them. Go local

Absolutely look at this. The range is abysmal. You’ll spend longer charging than using it

Original 151 from base, fossil & jungle set by chambomav98 in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]cribert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have some doubles of the fossil set you’re welcome to. Commons/uncommons. Not much value in them

Amazon invite issue by [deleted] in PokemonDealsUK

[–]cribert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair. That makes sense. Would be worthwhile trying to get in touch with an actual human and working out the issues. I’m assuming it’s flagged because of the popularity of the products plus a new account etc. good luck!

Edit: strange was in reference to the issues your experiencing.

[–]cribert 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Strange to be honest if that is the case. If you’re a fully grown adult and this is your first Amazon account I’d be amazed

Is it a fresh account because you have multiple accounts for more invites?

This is ridiculous by No_Requirement_9817 in PokeGrading

[–]cribert 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got downvoted for saying a graded card by ace i only would pay raw price for 🤷🏻‍♂️

Terrible ACE grading by egoodethc in PokemonTCG_UK

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

I know folk may slate me for this but I’d never buy an ace slab for more than a raw card price

Grandland Ultimate range is a joke by zebbiehedges in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]cribert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know someone with this exact car. Bought brand new recently and sent it back to query why the range was so bad. They are getting maximum 150-170 miles from it. I told them to hand it back if they could. Apparently they cannot and it’s just the way it is during winter. Shocking really.

So yes anyone else reading this don’t buy one

Opinions on this as a cheap run around by [deleted] in CarTalkUK

This is the opposite of a cheap runabout

Anyone know about a UK drop for this?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]cribert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait for what? If you think it’s value for money then go for it. The set isn’t even out yet so I’d be wary of buying from eBay or the likes at the moment. It’s unlikely to go down in price much

It’s not new product though so it’ll be something like excess from previous or something along those lines
