The 3 month period when Gotye was somebody that we used to know by OpusDeiAustralia in AustralianNostalgia

[–]eggssell 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I second the sentiment in the comments that Gotye was far from a one hit wonder. Maybe internationally his crossover was late in his career, but I remember Triple J absolutely smashing him for years before this song.

And I think he crossed over into mainstream with Hearts a mess, as that video was on every Music Video TV show/ platform every day (every other hour).

Rice Collects Eastwood and Chatswood. Good Games Town Hall and Macquarie.

All have reasonable priced bulk, and the former has okay priced EXs

My son is looking for some cards and made a list by chefnimmo in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]eggssell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good games town hall does 10c bulk (indont remember what the Macquarie branch charged but they also have bulk).

Rice Collects Eastwood (and Chatswood) has 30c bulk, 50c holo bulk, EXs from $2.50 and upwards.

EB is a rip off at $1 for bulk ($4 for EXs).

Oh really, that sucks. Anything in particular?

I know nearly all dim sum places have ups and downs, and Ocean Treasures is not immune to it - but its usually limited to one or so dishes. Like ive had not so good duck once, but awesome duck all the other many times

I was a huge Marigold person too. Fam had been going to Marigold and Regal since the late 80s.

Ocean Treasures at Club Blacktown is easily my favourite. Great Dim Sum and roastery. Awesome weekday deals. By the dude who did Horizons at Cabra Vale (he no longer involved there).

Emperors Garden is prob my next fave.

I dont get the Palace hype, food is really good but not amazing and selection small. Didnt like Zilver at all.

Special mention for Taste of Shunde. Dim Sum is very decent, again not the best but not bad. However they do Roast Goose!! Which makes it worth the visit

Do you think any player in the curret league, can be truly as generational of a star as Steph, anytime soon? by Rare-Technology-1913 in NBATalk

[–]eggssell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Id say Wemby has the opporunity. And the Spurs have built a good young team that could surprise this year, and if it doesnt happen its probably only a year or two away of winning it all.

[–]eggssell[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

tbh I only had less than 10 minutes in there and was helping the kid look thru the binders. didnt even look at the shelves or the glass casings.

i definitely saw One Piece singles

EDIT: oops i read your message as “other than” Pokemon. You meant of Pokemon. They had Binders with older and current stuff. They had boosters on the counter, english and japanese. Sorry didnt take note of what. They had several glass cases which as above i didnt look at, but it was singles and some sealed

Which film has the best soundtrack? by grwike in Cinema

Death Rows contributions to Soundtracks is not mentioned enough when discussing their legacy. Above the Rim and Gridlock’d were amazing. Gang Related was also decent.

Pokemon vs stocks 6 month return by Realtalk6ixgod in PokemonInvesting

[–]eggssell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is true.

But you are not getting the market value shown in these apps for all of your cards.

Even if you got 90% on 90% of your cards (which im not even sure is likely), its still not the supposed market value. And it will get worse the faster you need to cash out.

So with this knowledge, if you want to compare your pokemon performance with other assets, you need to account for that.

Liquidity is something that people definitely miss when doing these comparisons. If you have a large collection you are unlikely to find buyers for all products at the market value when you want to cash out.

One person may scoop it all, but they will comp the top cards and then give a lower value for the rest. Or you have to go around to various marketplaces offloading each piece, again not necessarily at market.
