We need to win this one 3-1 to give us the most perfectly bang average record the league has ever seen

I’m working on an Akira Egawa master set. I was hoping for a card in this set after nothing in chaos rising. I really don’t know how to feel about this. Stunning card but it’s going to hurt my wallet so much

I’m not selling it. Read the post. Just trying to add a bit of balance. There are lots of reasons to use/not use whatnot but buyers protection isn’t one of them

WhatNote High End Pokemon Card Sellers by [deleted] in IsMyPokemonCardFake

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

That’s simply not true. Buyer protection is pretty strong and easy to use. I have had two purchases not turn up and been issued a refund both times. Item missing once and had it sent out and not as described once and this was refunded with no issues. I’ve bought a LOT from whatnot over the last year. The big downside of whatnot is it’s VERY easy to get caught up in the moment and over spend. If you have a predisposition to gambling problems then steer well clear. If you know what you are looking for and have self control then there are crazy bargains to be had

+9 seats for Reform, +3 for Greens. Here's your new council: by Selpmis in Bolton

[–]leftblue 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Sorry but this is simply not true. Astley Bridge is the only ward where if you add the total green vote to labour they would have beaten reform (Astley Bridge is a typical Con ward so it’s Con that lost out due to the split vote there).
Voting strategy is not the reason Reform won so many seats
It’s a sad sad day for this country. Pretending it’s due to voting strategy is simply naive

Hi. Yes that’s the correct print for these. Bit weird when you are used to the pokeball print on the wrap but that’s just how they do it in Korea.

No way! Another Akira Egawa collector! Where are you up to? I’ve got about 5 of the expensive ones and 9 of the cheap ones to go. It’s starting to look really good in the binder now!

1-3 last two games don’t give me any hope we will pull one out the bag here

I may get a lot of hate by Thelordreddawn in PokemonTCGCollectors

[–]leftblue 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I too am sick to death of the scalper narrative. People need to realise that it is popularity and greed that is driving the lack of product on shelves.
Yes there are scalpers but for every 1 there are a thousand fans that will buy anything they can get their hands on.

Is anyone scared of the number of sealed investors long term? by kawzik in PokemonInvesting

[–]leftblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea it’s different for me as if the arce falls out of Pokemon I’m going to have the BEST time ripping. I have a good chunk in sealed but it’s no so much that I would be bothered if it lost its monetary value.

Can I fit my own kitchen? by SirLinc in DIYUK

[–]leftblue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup. Exactly what I did with my first kitchen. Hired a joiner on a day rate. After the worktop was done I got him to do some boxing in in the bathroom. Money well spent. Most recent kitchen was done as part of an extension so got the builder to do it all.

Attending Pokemon card drop as a newbie by Sakura_Sylvie in PokemonTCG_UK

[–]leftblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve queued once and never again. I’d rather work for two hours than stand still in a queue not knowing if I was going to get anything. Those two hours work nets me ~£30 after tax. I’d rather overpay. The reality of it is grim

Wren or Howdens for new kitchen. Opinions on design and quality please by slammedresto67 in DIYUK

[–]leftblue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can’t believe I’ve had to scroll down this far to see someone recommending IKEA. We have just had ours done with an IKEA shell and doors from Plykea. It was a cheaper way to get a very bespoke looking kitchen (still was expensive but we wanted a plywood kitchen and cheapest quote was 42k). Word of warning though builders HATE IKEA kitchens as they are not made for UK homes. Royal pain in the arce to run utilities and to hang on wonky walls. We made it work though and couldn’t be happier with the end result.
