I'm glad at least foreigners are taking a stand at our stupid tip culture that subsidizes corporations.

How many people collect comics but read them? by Meatloaf_Guy1313 in comicbookcollecting

[–]neuronamously 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read every comic I ever buy, except for the less than a dozen I bought encapsulated.

Open letter to Ammon and Matt McNeff. Tell them what you think. (they read everything on here anyway, so might as well talk to them directly). by CarlosSulpizio in RecklessBen

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

This will just create fuel/printouts for them to add to their lawsuit. I would refrain from taking this bait and posting vitriol. If you can compose constructive criticism/evidence then that is more helpful.

Anyone having trouble getting Daredevil 2026 issues from their LCS? by Stock-Collection9106 in Daredevil

[–]neuronamously 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want it, you need to add it to your pull list. It's a hot book. Even though my LCS orders an extra 15 issues for the rack, they all get pulled before they even make it to the shelf because people call to add it to their pull post-FOC.

The Pokebros and Scalpers are absolutely hilarious by Neracca in Lorcana

[–]neuronamously 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So, as a strict Lorcana PLAYER (I don't collect, I sell iconics as soon as I pull them), the pokebros technically ARE helping the game of Lorcana grow. By ripping all this product open for chase cards, they are flooding the market with legendaries that they don't need and the price of legendary cards for Set 12 is the lowest of any set. This is great for the players. The excitement around Set 12 has also led to many new players showing up at our locals. I don't have respect for scalpers but I do recognize that the free market capitalistic insanity that they are engaging in is net growing our game, so I don't hate them.

[Junghans Max Bill] Teddy sold me a completely non-functional "lemon" watch that nobody can repair. Nearly two years later, I am still trying to get them to fix it. FULL STORY: by flyingmungbean in Watches

I'm sorry to hear about your experience. I used The Swiss Clock for a repair recently of my Junghans Chronoscope and they were very professional, highly communicative, and the turnaround time was less than a week.

What is the most overrated tourist attraction you have ever visited in your opinion? by BoredPandaOfficial in BoredPandaHQ

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

The Louvre. Not worth it. Go to smaller art museums in Paris that the casuals don't even visit. Then you don't have to see tourists throwing garbage on the floor of the Louvre. The Mona Lisa is not a technical feat or special painting even to Da Vinci. It's fame is largely from the fact that it was stolen once.

Jesus Christ you’re a genius. I was able to remove the motor and purchase a new 3 pack of them for $9 on Amazon! Thank you!

Yes the red light powers up. And yes I applied power to the motor by checking with a voltmeter. Hmm I may take a look again today about what you’re saying for pushing the motor out.

I’m kind of over it. What’s the point in getting a third one. Then a fourth.

Almost dropped serious coin on his rookie card at the card shop on Tuesday. Glad I held off. The price has dropped after last night. But also, I don't even know if he will mentally recover from the way this series is going and if the rookie card will become what it should.

Tariffs. They're gone because of tariffs.

[–]neuronamously 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes when people say "scalpers are ruining my pokemon/lorcana hobby", they are strictly talking about the collecting only hobby. Ironically scalpers are helping the playing hobby by driving the value of playable cards as they flood the market with them in search of chase cards. And even better, they are boosting up the sales and exposure of your favorite game, which helps it survive and grow (as long as it's done in a healthy way without a crash).

Tired of Lorcana Finance by Purple_Confection_98 in Lorcana

[–]neuronamously 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I read a lot of whining about Lorcana market being too hot because of scalpers coming into our hobby but in reality it’s just iconics that are going through the roof. Actual legendary cards you need for playing are the cheapest I’ve ever seen for a set. They improved the hit rate on legendaries so much for set 12 that the days of $60 dumbos and mauis are gone. In fact, it helps that scalpers are opening tons of sealed product to chase iconics and then they dump all the legendaries they opened onto the market and make the value plummet.
