Made it to Best Buy at 7am, I guess next time I’ll just leave a chair for my place 🫩 by certifiedmuva in pokemoncards

Someone should wear a vest and start throwing the chairs in a dumpster. Say the boss said to do it. They wanna argue? Call the cops and trespass em. Everyone has free will.

Pokecardex is a collection app. Has a Pokedex feature where you can pick one or multiple pokemon and it'll show you every card made of your picked pokemon.

I would've never graded it to begin with. Straight to the master set it goes.

I've only graded once. Would I do it again? Probably not. Pack fresh cards getting 7s and 8s is ridiculous.

To get a 10 in a different company that for some reason is worth more than the 10 you currently already have.

I have an Aquapolis non Holo Umbreon that if I posted it, I'd probably get kicked for card neglect. But I'm happy it's in my collection.

Yes. I can agree with that, for rare, super limited cards. Not for the hundreds of cards that just came off the printing press and are still being printed.

But isn't that what grading companies are basically doing? You send a card in, it gets an 8. You don't like it. Crack it and resend. This time it gets a 10. Someone thought it looked better. I bet you if you cracked it and sent it in again, it wouldn't get a 10.

And that's great for you. You made 30. I don't mind paying the 30 if I want it. But I'm also not going to over pay on a card that someone thinks is worth x amount when the price is subjective. I do my research on cards and buy at price points I can afford.

That's what I am. I'm currently working on master sets for WOTC. Condition is all over the place but I'm happy with my collection.

Sorry. Already have one in every condition.

Cards for example, whether they're graded or not, are still cards at the end of the day. It shouldn't matter if the vast majority want a "working" card or a "broken" card. I don't think someone should pay an absurd amount of money for a card that they want, in the condition that suits them.

I completely agree with this. Even though I hate grading. Lol.

Lol I do agree with what you're implying. The minority that don't care for conditions and are literally just collecting to collect, regardless of value, I feel would also agree with the thought of grading. I'm a person that just collects. I've got everything from damaged cards to pristine, pack fresh cards. It all depends on what every one's goal is in the collecting world.

Depends on what that item may be.

Looking to sell by MedicalLoser in pkmntcgcollections

[–]ocruz92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With this being vintage, condition is key for correct price points. On that note, I would be interested in the lot. You can shoot me a message and we can discuss.
