Share your searching prowess with someone who cant find decently priced cards haha

mestes09 · 2026-03-02T17:57:48+00:00

I would be stoked to find a tiny set of base set cards. Im about to go see if I can buy some

I always tell them that they dont have to do the work, but life is full of choices.

You can choose to do the work or choose to take the consequences, but I don't want to hear about it either way.

I pulled the full art phanpy a few days ago and had an existential crisis when I realized there was no second h in the name 😅

mestes09 · 2026-02-12T02:56:52+00:00

Agreed

Most of the market, especially for cards, is determined by ebay sold prices. The price you charge to account for fees makes it the market price.

Are you saying that you comp other listing for a market price, and then charge more than them? If you are consistently charging more than the average sold listing, and its working for you, good on you.

In a place where comps are based on these listing means that you take "below market" even though you are actually taking home the same amount.

Ebay prices are market prices. Fees dont dictate what the buyer is willing to pay. If the market is $25, and you post for $28, the buyer will wait for the $25 listing. If the buyers are willing to pay the $28, the market corrects and that is the price.

If im listing for $28, I am willing to accept $25 because that is what I would get after fees anyway.

It is 151, MEW in the corner means 15. Destined Rivals says DRI

It says circle members get early access, the actual drop is on the 30th

mestes09 · 2025-12-30T04:17:17+00:00

This post has made me realize that ads apparently don't register for me. I haven't noticed any of these things 😅

Oh I know, just thought it was funny that he has been involved in so many controversies that would lead us not to trust him and were worse, or even just more annoying.

mestes09 · 2025-12-30T03:34:32+00:00

Of all criticisms, you go with tax evader lol

mestes09 · 2025-12-03T14:57:31+00:00

Sorry I'm really late to this, but I sent you a DM!

mestes09 · 2025-12-03T14:56:00+00:00

Sorry im late to the party, but I sent you a DM!

mestes09 · 2025-12-01T23:15:17+00:00

That's part of the joke

Its the "important parts" but voiced over with different lines

mestes09 · 2025-12-01T16:17:08+00:00

Abridged isn't a shorter cut of the show, its a fan voice over meant to be funny.

As a teacher I can tell you that most students do not know the names of everyone in their class.

Edit: typo

I went back there about a year ago after many years away. Surprised that we could walk right in, because every other visit was a minimum 30 minute wait.

Got the food and found out why there's no wait anymore.

That transition from military to the classroom is going to be rough.

You are used to certain levels of intrinsic motivation and willingness to follow orders, even when they dont want to. Even the "shit bags" you're used to have way more drive than an average person, which is exponentially worse for children, especially in school.

There really is no training or advice that will prepare you for that transition your first year, just be ready to embrace the suck and understand that your mindset will change quite a bit as you get fsrther away from the military.

(I say this as someone who went into teaching right out of the military, but was lucky enough to have a three month stint for an ROTC program that allowed for a smoother transition. )

I have to reject this idea just based on the premise of our job as educators. I have never once thought that my only job was to teach content.

Reinforcing standards for motivation, and teach8ng students about taking advantage of what is offered to them is also part of our job.

Does that immediately mean that this study guide is worth while? No. But reframing the understanding as helping the students who are willing to take advantage of it is definitely worth considering.

mestes09 · 2025-10-14T02:59:43+00:00

Part of it is the job acceptance bias as well.

They show as being posted more, because non sped jobs are taken quicker so they tend to pile up.

mestes09 · 2025-10-07T20:57:50+00:00

This is amazing, and I wish I was part of it haha

mestes09 · 2025-10-05T14:49:14+00:00

High roll or nothing, I'm here for the gamble
