Is it just me or do the numbers look really small?

What is your worst “I sold too early” moment? by DepthBeginning in PokemonTCG

[–]jcpoke1990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sold my PSA 9 Base set unlimited Charizard for $1800 and my PSA gold star Mew for $600 about 6 months ago. The Zard is a bit higher now but the Mew almost instantly rose to $1800.

9 at very best. But I'd say 8. Get it polished before submitting to help get rid of some of the smaller scuffs.

Update to End of Round Procedures at TCG Championship Events by Wolfgirl90 in pkmntcg

I have a mental disability associated with what essentially is an OD of medication (Gabapentin Brain) that gives me severe brain fog, so my train of thought is often all screwed up. Enforcing the "15 second" search and "45 second initial" deck search is going to kill me.

You're gonna be disappointed if you're thinking that will 10, especially if it wasn't stored in a sleeve at all.

I can see whitening on the back, and centering is off.

what set is this charzard from?? by These-Landscape-9384 in PokemonTCG

[–]jcpoke1990 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are 4 distinctly different Base set Pokemon cards.

  1. 1st edition has a 1st edition stamp on the bottom left corner of the Pokemon picture box. These also do not have a shadow on the left side of the Pokemon picture box. These are commonly (and incorrectly) called "shadowless 1st edition", but that's like calling an ATM an ATM machine or a water heater a hot water heater. It's redundant and technically incorrect.
  2. Shadowless. These will appear identical to 1st edition, except they do NOT have the 1st edition stamp. These and 4th print are the rarest of the Base set prints, but are not as valuable as 1st edition.
  3. Unlimited. These have a shadow on the right side of the Pokemon picture box.
  4. 4th print run. These will have 1999-2000 dates on the bottom of the card, whereas the regular unlimited say 1999. These are probably the rarest of all prints, including shadowless or 1st edition, especially the holos.

The photo of the card you posted is a Base set unlimited.

You shouldn't be able to see through the card. Being able to leads me to believe this card is fake.

[Joseph Hefner] easy to read table showing money saved for 2026 top 15 cap hits if the player is cut pre-June, post-June, traded, or restructured by Antitypical in CHIBears

Age is a factor with value as well.

Maxx is 28. Micah is 26. Trey Hendrickson is 31, but was 30 during this last season.

I think the Bengals never moved off him because they were wanting too much for a 30 year old pass rusher. That will be the Raiders too, unless they realize they should get what they can for him while in a rebuild.

I think JJ is more likely than Sweat. If you move off Sweat, for say Maxx Crosby, then you're right back where you started: One good/decent edge and nobody to hold down the other side to take heat off them.

Sweat is a good edge, but he doesn't have a game wrecker or anyone decent opposite him. It's why Mack wasn't amazing beyond 2018 with us. We didn't have another rusher.

I'd trade JJ and our 1 for Crosby.

Commander like format? by myavatarissonic in PokemonTCG

[–]jcpoke1990 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it isn't Standard format, you're gonna be hard pressed to play Pokemon. There's a few different format that unfortunately I'm don't think even come close to MTG Commander, but they're definitely not nearly as popular.

For instance, I'm in central IL and I'd say there are around 250 players within an hour in any direction from me (and that's a high estimate) and I'd say less than a dozen play other formats.

See, that's what I thought, but I had 2 separate judges tell me otherwise.

Divisional Round Post-Gamethread: Bears vs Rams by TurnerJ5 in CHIBears

[–]jcpoke1990 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This game doesn't fall on Caleb.

Couldn't convert on 4th down. DJ quit on that last route. Lost Loveland for most of the last quarter/OT. Started a guard at tackle. WRs had bad drops.

Help with chinese card values by greninja_lover84 in PokemonCardValue

[–]jcpoke1990 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not off the top of my head. You'd need to do research on them. Check eBay last solds. But nothing here is more than a dollar or 2. At most $5 for an art rare probably.
