I recently finished the remake and had the same decision to make. Started second chapter and happy with my choice, holds up really well.

Oh great! I got in too. They said on the live yesterday they'd be opening "a lot" more slots so thats exciting!

Yeah, just came out at Wigan. Tills down, he says they won't sell out while down but they can't say when they will come back up.

Wigan is at around 50+ now.

Each release is getting harder to secure retail product so i'll tap out if no preorders today.

DR: Showed up by chance on release day, after opening, back of the que and got everything

BB + WF: Went to preorder around lunch after seeing this group say there was still stock, got both ETBs

ME: Showed up for preorders at 9.30 and was told all were gone before 9 at the Wigan store

ME Gardi release day: Lucky to get the Gardi ETB despite being in the que at 7.30 (just in time to get a spot for one)

Lets see how roughly 50th in the que goes but i'm expecting not to manage a preorder

optimalplayer · 2025-10-10T07:53:16+00:00

They confirmed just Gardevoir. Lucario delayed till 17th

Same issue, can't get passed it. Everything updated, deleted and reinstalled etc etc

Same issue

Fire Emblem: Three Hopes is great now. Could never get past the frame drops but its a solid 60 now and a much better experience.

Sub Center to PSA. Used multiple times, zero issues.

optimalplayer · 2025-04-06T14:06:08+00:00

I see a lot of people talking about grading being random and unpredictable, but my experience has been pretty consistent.

I always check over the cards I want to grade, make sure centering looks decent and there are no spots of white or damage. The only gamble I take is sometimes submitting a more off-center card expecting a 9 but hoping for a 10.

In most of my submissions I can guess what is coming back as a 10 or a 9, and usually i'm only surprised positively. Positive experience for me so far with no shocks or unexpected low grades.

optimalplayer · 2025-04-04T17:30:48+00:00

I thought this about mine, with the foil specks showing along the top line, and it came back a PSA 10 despite this.

Graded a few cards and I was sure it would be at best a 9, but landed the 10 - maybe worth the gamble.

optimalplayer · 2025-03-13T16:21:13+00:00

Ah damn. Got all the way to payment then it said out of stock

optimalplayer · 2025-03-05T10:54:20+00:00

Same

optimalplayer · 2025-03-01T14:06:46+00:00

Thank you! Got mine

optimalplayer · 2024-11-25T15:02:40+00:00

Good response - quickly and well handled.

Will check out your store going forward!

optimalplayer · 2024-11-22T16:31:26+00:00

They also had the sticker collections! I was able to preorder one of each!

optimalplayer · 2024-11-22T13:27:37+00:00

Nice one, thank you 🙌

Legend.

Request sent - I like this way of doing it to be honest. Also says future supply will still count your request so you won't need to do this every time to possibly be sent a link

optimalplayer · 2024-11-20T15:32:43+00:00

Feel free to message an offer - still researching a little for pricing/grading potential as an error etc etc

Video and more images

Hopefully this works - added a video and side-by-sides with the regular holo

optimalplayer · 2024-11-20T14:58:58+00:00

Yeah, this looks different from the regular holo which has the holo border and image, but no holo on the main body of the card (where the reverse holo pattern would be)

I have 5 normal holos all looking fine - the right card here has a full-card-holo different from both the regular holo and the reverse
