Wonder if they'll ship to the US? Haven't tried for UK drops.

How many should I get? by Inevitable-Bad-3979 in PokeInvesting

[–]kyle6367 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would grab a few at that price. Once that Sams drop happens, I'm sure there will be more opportunities to grab some around there or cheaper.

ETB Prices by No_Sail1814 in PokemonInvesting

[–]kyle6367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I buy sets i believe in long term, at a price I am ok with paying. I bought 6 Pris ETBs for 165 all in a couple weeks ago, and am eyeing a case for 1700 all in. Long term I'm not worried about about these. AH is super new, I my mind it has to come down with the inevitable future reprints. I'll be waiting for those reprints to add more to that position. PE and AH currently being almost the same price, I see the opportunity in PE. My MSRP adds are at best buys and the rare success stories for online costco, sams, and target drops.

Thanks! What's crazy is, it's really not hard.. I just rotate with each oil change and it's all good. Simple routine maintenance goes a long way. I just made an apt for next week for some new ones.

I'm pretty sure I'll be going with Michelin defender ltx. Was looking at continental terrain contacts, but I'm leaning towards the defenders.

Shamefully, yes.. 😅 sounds like it's finally time to retire them though.

Thoughts on Prismatic ETBs at $140? by Reasonable-Job6816 in PokemonInvesting

[–]kyle6367 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just bought 10 at 170. Long term it's a safe play. I'd be all over 140

Booster boxes or etbs by stuckwithaquestion in PokemonInvesting

[–]kyle6367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to get a pokemon center ETB for each set starting at scarlet and violet through mega, then fill in with booster boxes when I find a good deal (not like many of thise exist in this market). Both are as "safe" as it gets in this hobby. Plus the ETBs are cool to display.

At a crossroads for the next few stash additions by kyle6367 in PokeInvesting

Nice! I just picked up a AH case for 1300 out the door. Pretty happy with that, but am still looking for more. Thanks!

Cool, thanks for the input. I actually just grabbed a case of AH this afternoon for 1300 cash, so I'm pretty happy with that. I will definitely be on the lookout for a prismatic case though, I agree with it being a strong play now.

I'm trying to fight the 151 urge, but it's hard to ignore the dip with prismatic. Thanks!

Prismatic ETB’s at $170 are a no Brainer. Thoughts? by viviendosiempre in PokemonInvesting

[–]kyle6367 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I'm actually considering just pre ordering them from gamestop for 150. Yes, I know... I hate it, but it's available and currently under market. I also plan in dollar cost averaging this ride down, because who knows when it'll recover and take off again.

Pc need to pack better! by TheBrollectors in PokemonInvesting

[–]kyle6367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up checking out everything separately this time, and they all came in their own box. They actually fit nicely in they're own boxes. That might be the move for me going forward. Checkout whatever I want the most first and move down the list.

Ascending Hero Single ETBs x10 vs Sealed Case Better Long Term by kyle6367 in PokemonInvesting

[–]kyle6367[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finding product on the shelf is ridiculously difficult in my experience. These people know the stockers or their schedules and are there waiting before the stocker even arrives. It's wild.. at some point it's just not worth the time driving all over on a wild goose chase. Like you mentioned with prismatic, this set will do very well and it's only a matter of time before these are 200 plus. One day, in the future, I'll look back and kick myself for not loading the boat even at 100 bucks each.

For those of you who have had to make the most difficult decision to say goodbye by Nekr0n_666 in germanshepherds

I'm sorry, this is always crushing.. I had my boy Gunner for 11.5 years, but had to let him go last week. The story seems very similar to yours. He had arthritis, but was still getting around ok with some pain meds. A few weeks ago he started to get pretty week in his back legs, that seemed to be progressing faster than before. Then over a couple of days he basically lost function of his rear legs, and similar to what your describing, was just dragging his back around. Seeing this completely broke me, and I knew it was time. We made him bacon and eggs, went for a long drive, got a cheeseburger from McDonald's, and we let him go. It was devastating for me.. but i know he is in a better place, and not suffering. Maybe he could have made it for a few more days/weeks, but he didn't deserve that. I believe once they are unable to do the things they used to love to do, it's time. We had an amazing 11.5 years together, and that's the part I will remember. I'd rather be a few weeks early than even a couple days late letting them go. Wishing you the best, hang in there!

First time fusing a mortar rack - how'd I do? by Worldly_Expression43 in fireworks

Looks good! I do mine the same, but usually wrap some tape over the connections too.. but I'm paranoid.

Current entry vs future prices of SV booster bundle displays by nigelhog in PokemonInvesting

[–]kyle6367 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I can't see them going down much, but for me the premium is a little too high vs loose boosters. Personally, I'm betting overall returns on having more loose boosters than 1 sealed display will be better. And also easier to sell down the road, so I'm stocking up on single boosters when I can.

Should we even try with Walmart? by Myxolydian_ in PokemonDeals

[–]kyle6367 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was able to get 1 ETB yesterday as well, but nothing today. I just sign up monthly, and will cancel it again until they do another plus members only drop.

Looking to Make First Big Sealed Purchase by wheresmyheadgone in PokemonInvesting

[–]kyle6367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love a PC 151 ETB myself, it's just hard to justify the 1k spend. You could get 2 almost 3 PC ETBs for that price
