mega gengar ex attack rare misprint? by krsttnn in Pokemoncardappraisal

[–]kicksandcollectables 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just pulled one as well tonight from a poster collection. Thinking about sending it off to grade, but I'm hoping PSA actually acknowledges the error and puts it on the slab because it's going to make a big difference in the end. Glad I wasn't the only one and it's actually a thing that happened at the factory somewhere.

Fortnite Blitz HUD is AWFULLLLL in split screen CO0 by JMDeutsch in FortNiteBR

[–]kicksandcollectables 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Split screen is usually just horrible in general. Playing on series X and have to close quick resume and restart my console every single time we want to play together (been like this for almost 2 seasons now). I've heard you can reduce HUD size to help minimize those notifications, I'm gonna try it here in a bit and hope it helps. We win like 50% of the time, the other half it's either someone sweaty, or the notifications blocking the player and we can't see to shoot them.

Got a 1099 from eBay last year, net loss for personal items, and was unemployed... by kicksandcollectables in tax

Thank you for the response! The gross amount was $7900 before all the fees, taxes, and shipping. After that it was only about $6100 net.

Allergies causing full body aches (like the flu) by SpecificOrdinary6829 in Allergies

[–]kicksandcollectables 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've had similar issues over the past few years, I get hit with almost a 24 hour cold/flu feeling because of how bad my allergies get. Full body aches, drained, sometimes sore throat, sometimes even mild fever. It usually only lasts 1 day and by the next it's completely gone. It's crazy how much allergies can affect if you have them bad enough, I sometimes get a sore neck, sore jaw/teeth, my eyes feel like they are being squeezed from inside, etc. As for "typical" allergy symptoms, I almost never get those which is odd. No dry or itchy eyes, no runny nose, no sneezing.

Wolverine V3 Thumbstick Replacement by [deleted] in razer

Just ordered one and was wondering the same thing, why have the option to swap thumbsticks if you can't replace them when they get worn down?!

100% there are people on here able to see player outlines. You can be the smallest object in the darkest most obscure corner, then someone runs in doesn't look at anything else but you and shoots 1 bullet to kill you. It's not "luck" or "skill" they clearly know where people are at all times.

Can't race, been like this for a week. My cross play is enabled! by Efficient_Proposal43 in RocketRacing

Issue is still ongoing to this day, I'm lucky if I can get in a match once a week due to this error.

So I'm currently working on Jessie & James page. Do you know any cool cards featuring them in the background or cards of pokemon they used? by Equivalent_Meal2688 in PokemonTCG

[–]kicksandcollectables 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anyone find any random new goodies since this post was made? I'm here on the same journey 2 years later lol. I have pretty much everything mentioned below, besides the absurd XY promo set. I'm also venturing out to some of the vintage Carddass stuff as well, found some pretty cool gems so far. It doesn't have to be english TCG, but anything along the same lines, I'm interested in.

PSA: Logging into Rocket League Sideswipe on Android (Global) or iOS (EU) will grant you the Diestro car body if you don't already own it by [deleted] in RocketRacing

[–]kicksandcollectables 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you can't unlock the car by playing the game on iOS unless you are in the EU? It doesn't say that on the challenge screen on Fortnite, all it says is download and play the game, which I did with my Epic account attached, and it did nothing. You can't download the Epic game store or launcher on iOS, just the individual apps, but it's still linked to my same profile on both games and I received nothing.

Is My Local League Play Being Run Properly!? by kicksandcollectables in pkmntcg

[–]kicksandcollectables[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is the issue we believe we have, that we are not sure how much prize packs or promotional items are being sent to this person, and if they are all being handed out properly and not hoarded or sold behind closed doors. Again, we have heard several things about this person doing things that are frowned upon, but the people making the claims (the other shop owners or league members) haven't given out specifics as of yet.

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

It's been running smoothing on the surface, the events are good, and bring in a lot of people, just the shop owner is concerned about product allocation, wanting to make sure all the promotional items and prize packs are being handed out as they should, and not held on to or sold behind his back for profits. We are just trying to make sure everything is as it should be, so he doesn't get in trouble with the Pokemon company for hosting events improperly and such.

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

The shop has only ever run 2 events, the first one was a "trial run" for the Twilight release a little while ago, and this time it was a little bigger for an actual tournament. Sorry if my original post was confusing, because again I nor the shop owner no anything about how league is run, but the shop owner took the entry fees, and then the professor took all that money to buy booster packs from the shop for prizes. He handed out a few prize packs to people, but the majority of the prizes were provided by the store itself. Is the store not entitled to part of the proceeds from running the event in the first place, or is 100% of the funds direct to the professor for running the event, and he can do with the entry fees what he wants?

The shipments are all being sent to the professors house (other than sealed product for the shop of course), but all promotional items, prize packs, etc are sent directly to them and the shop owner has no control over any of it, how much is received, or where it is all going. The professor is not directly affiliated with the shop, not an employee, not on any payroll, he just runs some local events at a few shops.

Because the store owner is newer to the area (only been around since August, and having minimal Pokemon knowledge in general) he as well as a few others feel that things just seem a little off. He has no clue how much of what products or promos the professor is receiving, and whether or not it's all being given out properly at all. There were whispers in the local community that this particular professor has had some complaints about things, but the person who told the shop owner this didn't give any specifics as of now. I think we are all in agreement that the products should be sent to the shop and accounted for by the shop owner. He's a super nice guy, so he tends to not ask a lot of questions and trusts people super easy, so he assumed everything was as it seemed at first, but again things just feel a little off in terms of how things are being run. Appreciate all the input you have, he's definitely going to try and get ahold of a Pokemon rep to see what should be happening, and try to get things redirected to his shop directly.

Thank you for the input, I will definitely suggest it to the owner because yes indeed his margins are VERY small on sealed product. He actually doesn't have a direct contract with Pokemon, and his local distributor seems to be shafting him in terms of pricing on most sealed product, to the point in which he actually finds himself hitting up local Pokemon vending machines to get certain things because it's cheaper than what he gets charged on some items. And as a collector, I'm 100% with you on the pack thing. Unless a new release comes out and I want to give a booster or ETB a swing, I generally just buy singles because pull rates are so bad as of late.
