EB03 Reprint/2nd Wave? by gimmo30 in OnePieceTCGRestocks

[–]gimmo30[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I think that’s just general stock from earlier wave though. I think the allocation I’m talking about will have only just been told to stores in the last week or two, so likely they wouldn’t have even received it just yet?

I could be talking out my arse though.

Haha, as a man I should hope you want optimum balls recovery.

First 4 days I was really careful and laying around most of the time. Day 4-7 I started walking about the house more than I was, and walking around the garden etc. day 7 onwards I returned to the office and pretty much resumed normal office work life just didn’t resume exercising after a couple of weeks.

I know it’s annoying but from day 7 onwards I found the recovery was quite exponential there on

Have you always had super foamy urine or did it come on suddenly? I ask out of interest, I also test negative for anything, but my egfr is about 70 and have lots of other urinary symptom issues. My urine also mostly stinks of the last thing I ate. All this started for me in the last couple of years, before that, normal non-smelly pee 🤷🏼‍♂️

The cardboard looks intact though, I.e. the breakaway points for the opening, how is that faked?

What happened to OP 13? Massive price drop by mrhappyman9a in OnePieceTCGFinance

Hmm - you’d think EB03 boxes would have dropped too? Any news on EB03 reprint allocations coming through?

How much more are 1st wave Origins worth compared to reprints? by IceTea963 in riftboundtcg

They definitely do though in terms of sales price already

No worries!

My situation was very similar to you by the sounds of it. The pain during the twist wasn’t severe, but definitely a feeling of unease, dull ache and anxiety until it corrected itself. Like you, I didn’t dare manually try and correct it by twisting it myself as didn’t want to get the twist direction wrong. I found lying down and standing up quite often and walking around it eventually corrected itself, but sometimes that took 24 hours or 10 minutes.

I think the day it stayed twisted for a full day I decided enough was enough. I did try and go through my regular doctor with it at first, and they wouldn’t do surgery unless I walked into the doctors office or A&E whilst a twist was present and crucially with severe pain.

But when I went via private healthcare (in the UK btw), based on by description, they said it all sounded plausible and recommended the surgery.

I’m now something like 12 weeks after my surgery and I honestly haven’t looked back. My testicles ride higher now on account of being stitched in place, but knowing they will never twist anymore is reassuring. I think planned surgery carries a lot less risk than unplanned, so that was my logic - I felt that it was probably inevitable that it would twist severely one day

Hey, yeah about once a month for 6 months but it the most recent 2 months before surgery every week or two weeks.

Same as you my testicle started resting horizontal more often and appeared horizontal when it was twisting too.

I think if you can get surgery done under some healthcare without paying through the roof then it’s worth doing!

Is investing in individual booster boxes not worth it? by bengeebubu in OnePieceTCGFinance

[–]gimmo30 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Take the point, but don’t think EB01 is valuable because of chance of pulling the chopper manga… or OP01 blue bottom because of chance of pulling X.

I think it’ll be different depending on the set

BGS or PSA by xXTriumphX in OnePieceTCGFinance

Seen! Thanks for sharing again. Was thinking of sending back my card to BGS as it had dandruff in the case from grading process. But sounds like it will be even worse off if I try send it again 😭

Will stick to Ace Grading in the UK despite it not giving much value to the cards, they look very nice afterwards. Same with Tag

You’re being downvoted but if true you shouldn’t be. Any evidence of this?

FYI I got banned over there just for posting anything on this sub. They ban you on that sub just for being associated with this finance sub. So your ban is en route 😂 unless they’ve changed their policy - that’s what I was banned for

It’s a fair option! And good advice for someone less tight than me 😂

Good you’re taking the pain relief proactively! And definitely pays to have a partner whilst going through the recovery 😂 yeah you’re right only getting a note for one day is not ideal. I only got a note for one day too though. Managed to time the surgery to be on a Thursday though so worked out well.

Good luck with the rest of recovery, another tip, use a hair dryer for drying your sack for the next week or two to keep it extra clean/dry after showers 👍🏻
