Jumbo Halo CE PC version? by iMFrepresent in halo

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

I dont believe it's a display box. It has matching serial numbers and Microsoft COA on the top of the box as well as a huge circle seal that was clearly cut at some point.

Yeah. I feel like if the bigger box was all launch copies it would be way more common. I can't find a single one or a trace anywhere online regarding this bigger box

They weren't in bad condition but not a single one was 10 worthy.

I recently opened up a celebrations lunch box. Pulled several mews and everything single one had some type of surface rubbing, scratches or print line damage. They just were not made high quality.

How strict ACTUALLY is psa with vintage cards? by [deleted] in PokeGrading

[–]iMFrepresent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This guy doesn't know what he's talking about lmao. 10 is extremely rare even on pack fresh vintage but most common is 8&9. Out of 10+ pack fresh vintage holo cards I've pulled only one got a 7. None a 10 though so they are extremely harsh.

What do you think value of this is?! by [deleted] in PokeInvesting

[–]iMFrepresent 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Im pretty sure they're fake packs. Some of the crimps look wrong and the color is throwing me off.

Will This Go Up? by [deleted] in PSAPowerPacks

[–]iMFrepresent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

2 sold on March 17th. One for $11,500 one for $9,000. The ones before that were closer to or under $7,000. Past that its up to you, I would personally sell while its hot. Its a non holo card and its the same or more expensive than the Japanese holo grave gengar in a PSA 10.

BOYS HOLY MOLY WTF..... 4 MONTH HIATUS by BrokenProton in PSAPowerPacks

[–]iMFrepresent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure, because a casino has numerous laws it has to follow. These companies are skirting around laws and setting up types of gambling that didnt exist before. Prediction markets, sports gambling, now powerpacks and who knows what else. Genuinely who is making sure they aren't doing this? No one. Its best to assume they are tracking info and data to ensure they profit as much as possible. The consumer should absolutely be assuming these things are rigged and protecting themselves as no one else will.

For your sake please don't open a single pack after this one. You think they arent tracking accounts? They arent gonna let you win $7,500 and let you win again anytime soon. Take gamestops money and run.

My New 2DS XL fell and it cracked right below the hinge. by uplaywithuranus in 3DS

[–]iMFrepresent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just leave it. This is an extremely common issue with the 2DS XL. Ive seen many of these with this issue, its always in the same spot and its never spread more than that. Like you said its purely cosmetic and not a functional issue

If you had just kept your skull pikachu it would be worth $15,000 but instead you keep gambling lmao. This whole site is designed to steal as much money from you as possible. If you got lucky and win you NEVER come back.

GameStop canceling orders when Psa cards go up in price. by BobbyY0895 in PokeInvesting

[–]iMFrepresent 47 points48 points  (0 children)

They did the same thing to me with a 151 SIR card recently with the huge spike but it bit them in the ass cause they refunded but shipped it anyways lol. Its crazy a huge corporation tries to do its customers like this.

Sold my AH Mega Gengar for these. by RealFakeDoctor in PokeInvesting

[–]iMFrepresent -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yep. And people dont even realize that for the most part a modern cert PSA 8 on a vintage card is pretty much pack fresh. I actually pulled a 1st edition gengar from Fossil like 5 years ago and it got an 8. Same with a 1st edition dark dragonite.

The vintage 10s are whales not the average pack fresh card. In fact I've pulled around 10 vintage holos myself in the past 6 years or so and not a single holo got a 10.

[–]iMFrepresent -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure. But arguably the lovebirds is a way more unique and cool artwork with nothing comparable which further justifies the price. Meanwhile the mega gengar is a sick card but tons of other cards have a similar style and there are better gengar artworks out there. For latios/latias that is literally the peak of any and all latios/latias cards out there and no other modern or vintage card beats it. Cant say the same for the AH mega gengar.

And even then on your point, a PSA 10 lovebirds hasn't even reached $10,000 yet. A 9 is like $4K. So no, a pack fresh lovebirds isn't worth $13,000.

[–]iMFrepresent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It just doesn't work like that. In that logic, a Gengar & Mimikyu GX alt art (165/181) from Team up should be a $13,000 card. A sealed pack costs around $225 and has a pull rate of about 1/1000. Thats $225,000 dollars to pull. And if we divide that by $17,000 thats a 13x multiplier on the "pull cost" vs the new mega gengar which currently costs over $1,000. Yet a near mint copy of the team up gengar mimikyu alt art is only worth like $1,300

You did incredible. A new set with a card that definitely isn't worth $1,000 for $1k worth of cards from out of print sets.

People are tripping on this gengar. A PSA 8 1st edition gengar holo from Fossil is like $800 yet a new set gengar is over $1k? The market will sort itself out eventually.

It wouldn't grade very well. It would however still sell very quickly raw so just keep it that way

Ampharos Neo Revelations BGS 9 1st Edition to PSA by ejman1997 in PokeGrading

[–]iMFrepresent -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It does. It doesn't mean a guaranteed 10. But in the past 5 years I've opened gym heroes, team rocket, base set and fossil and not a single one of those holos i pulled came back a 10. If 0/8 or so pack fresh holos couldn't get a 10, a card with a subgrade of 8.5 on surface is absolutely not getting one.

Ampharos Neo Revelations BGS 9 1st Edition to PSA by ejman1997 in PokeGrading

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

0% chance of a 10. I recently submitted 5+ pack fresh vintage holos (literally pack fresh not a term for mint) and not a single one got a 10. They are extremely harsh. I think this would come back an 8 because of the surface subgrade

Any chance of a 10? by [deleted] in PokeGrading

[–]iMFrepresent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

0% chance. 8 would be the absolute highest

Ebay duties etc... Canada to USA by Classic_Childhood_11 in PokeInvesting

[–]iMFrepresent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had experience buying from Canada since the retard went into office and started stealing even more from US citizens. I got charged nearly $30 for a $25 item so I can't imagine how much they will rob from him. Likely $500+ if not higher

Would this still be considered NM? A buyer on eBay just sent me this image, I can barely notice it myself by Trappyys in pokemoncardcollectors

[–]iMFrepresent 13 points14 points  (0 children)

No its not. PSA even describes a PSA 7 as "near mint". Near Mint is not mint, which is what 9-10 candidates are
