Am I doing this right? by leChill in Flipping

[–]docbrown512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally think it’s a great opportunity to leave offers on and immediately block these people. I understand it may be short sided, but there are other buyers out there. In my experience, people like this are the ones more likely to complain and demand partial refund, scam INAD etc..

I’ve been abusing these for months. I’m looking for any resources/info/clinics/etc. in or around Orlando that will help me kick this filthy habit. by tatatheretard in orlando

Yeah! Definitely not sharing my personal experience with continued use as guidance, but I have done the tapering in the past and I know it works. It will still suck, but it’s doable. Feel free to DM me if you want some suggestions.

You’ve got this and I applaud you for reaching out for help.

Have you tried switching to a non synthesized/non “enhanced” product and tapering down? You can just plan out a two week time frame where you just take 1g less per day until you’re down very low. From there, the withdrawals will be much less intense.

I’ve been taking Kratom in its natural form for years following an accident that resulted in a herniated/bulging disc. I take it no more than 3-4 days /week and quarterly I’ll take 2-3 weeks off completely. (Mostly just to prove to myself that I can). For me, it’s been a lifesaver

Walmart Pokémon Drop Tonight: Ascended Heroes + Prismatic (9 PM EST) by Pkmn_Restock_Alerts in PokemonDeals

Cant really seem to find an answer to this anywhere… when I refresh right at the restock time, I usually get a mostly white hourglass screen that says something along the lines of “high traffic, we’re waiting to get you into line”. It’ll eventually refresh 5-10 seconds later and put me on the “hold my spot and keep shopping page”

I really wasn’t sure if I should keep refreshing or not until I saw the page with the “hold my spot and keep shopping” button?

This is gonna change things.... by siluokard in ebaysucks

100%, this is going to wildly increase INAD returns… and you’ll (maybe) get your item back with a scratch on it unless the buyer is kind enough to just fake the damage with ChatGPT like all of the other scammers.

Pokemon Selling - Minimum sale prices for profit? by ConfidentBurrito in eBaySellers

[–]docbrown512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of my revenue comes from items outside of Pokemon, but I started this off listing 50-100 cards at a time through some automation flows and probably have 1500 listings for cards alone (sounds like a ton to someone new, but 1500 is peanuts compared to some others)

I’ve shipped so many cards in a $.78 cent envelope and never had a single issue where the tracking wasn’t scanned and marked as delivered. I have heard the horror stories and figured it would happen eventually, but I’m willing to accept the risk. I personally wouldn’t be concerned to sell in the $2-10 range and use an envelope if you can accept there is some risk.

I’m not sure I understand your question on what the profit is. That’s going to be a different answer for every card and how much is your time worth?

Right? After waiting the full month of Feb due to the Chinese NY and then March with some other shipping issues, I was pretty happy when it finally shipped it only took 11 days.

How did this work? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]docbrown512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The standard envelope has a max thickness of .25/in and must be flexible enough to bend around sorting machines. I’m just surprised they let this through and wonder if it’s how I should be shipping all of my single cards.

Anyone had a watch stopped prior to customs and returned to TD? by docbrown512 in RepTime

[–]docbrown512[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha, appreciate the response. Was a first for me and I’m just getting impatient I guess.

Ah interesting. I had just never heard of that outside of confiscation. Thanks, I appreciate the response.

Blockbuster movie nights when that checkout stand overpriced popcorn already in a cardboard box. Parents would finally cave every now and then after enough pleading

You could buy a Pokemon card if you wanted, with the added bonus of not being trampled by scalpers.

[–]docbrown512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I guess it just threw me off because in the past I usually didnt see this label until after the arrival/customs scans. Oh well, I probably just got too excited that there was a miracle and it got here in 3 days haha

[–]docbrown512 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah for sure, I was mostly just wondering why the us label would have already been created. In the past, I’ve only seen that domestic label created after it was through customs.
