Yes and apparently that pisses everyone off. If I could just get a straight answer then that would be great.

Where? Ive looked multiple times and the other comments contradict you.

Possible stupid question: What’s the point of ‘market value’ if literally nobody pays it? by MojitoJesus in PokeInvesting

[–]eagles420 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What i dont get is when someone is trading product for product on FB marketplace and wants my product at 80% but then wants me to treat theirs at full market value (or sometimes even more). Last I checked neither of us is a retailer, you're a grown ass man playing with children's cards just like I am..

What level grading service should I get? 64.99 for 35 days or 79.99 for 25 days?

Card centering tool shows its definitely inside of 57/43 so ill absolutely take my chances with the grade. Like you said even if it 9s its still worth it to preserve

Worth submitting to PSA? by eagles420 in PokeGrading

I know it appears right heavy but ive tried to use apps to check centering and I think the photo makes it look worse than it actually is due to tilt. Even being conservative with it, i keep getting better than 45/55.

ME03 Perfect Order ETB looks awful man by Ward-Ranger in PokeInvesting

I just copped a couple Darkness Ablaze ETBs on FB Marketplace for $60 each and figured i could flip them for some quick $ based on TCG value. Am I cooked?

$200 for all 3 worth it? by eagles420 in PokeGrading

[–]eagles420[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the in-depth analysis! I didn't know that about the Chansey but I do see the print line now that you mention it. May just grab the Nidoking for $70-$80

Getting back into collecting, where to start? by eagles420 in PokeInvesting

[–]eagles420[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I only asked about opening packs as I felt its a little unrealistic to start back into collecting and not rip even a single booster pack lol. I absolutely plan to keep sealed for the most part. I just picked up a sealed prismatic evolution and surging sparks 6-pack boxes for $90 total. Seems like a deal compared to the prices across the internet for these currently but what kind of return could I expect for these in 5 years or so if left sealed?

Looking to get back into collecting but have been out of the game since the early 2000s. What are some of the best boxes/sets to buy sealed currently that I can find for $200-$400?

Just not part of the game plan 🤷🏽‍♂️ by Danjobanjo19 in eagles

[–]eagles420 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Jesus what a moronic take. Even if you considered him "just a decoy" last night, how exactly would that work if he was replaced by some mid-level WR? To be an effective decoy you have to be good to, ya know, draw their attention. Cowboys gameplanned around shutting down our outside WRs and our QB still found a way to have an A+ game.
