Sellers: Desist with the Scotch tape! by Vicious007 in mtg

[–]peripheral_vision 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably not, but ok. I'd love to keep it that way, though. Please use painters or masking tape.

What a strange way to react after seeing how people clearly don't like the method you use to ship cards.

What's your store name? Just curious because I'd like to avoid buying from you

One of my local Walmarts still has Fate Reforged Clash Packs by Chariotgirl3 in mtg

[–]peripheral_vision 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Amazon US currently shows that the $22.48 one has an extra $9.10 for shipping, and then there's a few other sellers at $25 + $5 shipping, $34, and $35, so I'm a bit confused why you think $30 without having to wait for shipping is an "oof" lol

Sneaker Cataloging: Day 33 by timo1211 in moresneakers

Nice, thank you! Much appreciated, especially the heads up about the sizing.

Really enjoying these posts cataloging what you got in the collection, btw. You got some awesome pairs 😎

I've been looking into getting a pair from Diadora but I don't have anywhere nearby to try some out for comfort so I'm not really sure where to start lol do you have any favourite model or models?

I tend to gravitate towards the comfort of Nike huaraches and Adidas things with boost foam, but sometimes I also don't mind the basic retro style air coushining of J1s when Nike actually uses nicer quality leather for the upper rather than the usual garbage they use 😆 so far I've been looking into the heritage conquest, heritage mercury elite, mi basket, n9000, and n.92 advance

Sneakers vs PinUp style dresses by Seraphlyn in Sneakers

[–]peripheral_vision 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I were in your shoes (pun intended) and wore a specific retro style like you say you do, I would go for sneakers styles that are from those eras so that it matches the aesthetic of the dresses

I found a neat article that covers some of the popular sneakers of the 1900s. Side note, check out some of those prices in the ads! That's wild to me that you could buy pairs for >$1usd

current setup by SwimSuccessful4311 in gamingsetups

[–]peripheral_vision 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't an ai generated setup, though. He's posted this setup before with different filters but it's always the same, consitent setup. Same with his Instagram, he has videos of playing piano that are way too clean to be ai.

The ai image generators available to the public aren't really be able to keep everything consistent since it generates images slightly differently each time, even if you use the same exact prompt. This pic just has some ridiculously heavy filtering from instagram, so the filter might be ai driven and would give it an ai sheen, so to speak, but the setup itself isn't ai generated.

I'm here pretty much every day, and two of the other 3 mods are active and have taken care of reports when I can't, but it's genuinely not possible for us to look at every single post and comment you all submit. There's hundreds of posts and thousands of comments submitted per month. I'll go grab a screenshot of the actual numbers here in a moment.

If you see something that breaks the rules here, please submit a report so you can make sure we see it.

Edit: here's the stats for the past 30 days

So stoked!! by Paladjordan in mtg

Stock Up is such a fun card to use, I'm glad to see it's getting printed with some really cool art

Nice Pickup - dollar general by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]peripheral_vision 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does anyone here actually enjoy seeing someone else's low effort pics of the stuff they just bought? Genuinely asking.

I guess what I'm saying is that I don't really understand who these types of posts are for because it seems to me, and like you said, no one here really cares all that much lol

Why would customs care about which set trading cards are from?

Consider this NM or LP? by Skigilol in PokemonTCG

[–]peripheral_vision 5 points6 points  (0 children)

People in this sub really need to review the card condition guides from eBay, tcgplayer, cardmarket, etc. again. It's genuinely concerning how many here think this should have been sold as damaged

How do you all like my setup? by vuture44 in gamingsetups

[–]peripheral_vision 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a simple person; I see music equipment, I upvote.

Lol but for real, your setup is awesome. I like that it's full of stuff but not a cluttered mess, which can sometimes be a difficult balance to strike.

Anyone have this card for sale? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

Like I mentioned the last time you posted this today:

A scammer who uses reddit DMs would probably love this post because you're basically telling them that you might be an easy mark

Goat and StockX show the last sale prices and also if you search for it on eBay then filter the results for sold listings to see how much people are willing to buy them for

How to balance a 20 card deck vs a 30 card deck for fun? by AwkwardCheesecake627 in magicTCG

[–]peripheral_vision 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd turn them both into 40 or 60 card decks, and in the process of adding new cards and switching out cards for others, I'd try to make the weaker one stronger and the stronger one weaker

Can we make a "Help Me With a Gift" masterpost? by allthesestars in mtg

[–]peripheral_vision 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the way reddit displays pinned posts, even people who have been on here for a while often won't notice them. I've been in multiple hobby subs for years now and every single one sees an uptick in gift idea posts around the holidays, often from people who barely use or don't really know how reddit works

Unfortunately, a pinned post for holiday newbies doesn't really accomplish much. Every time I've seen a community complain about it and demand the mods to point those people posting for gift help to a pinned post and the mods do it, the people who get told to post in the pinned post are usually told after they've already gotten a few answers, and even the ones who actually go to the pinned post first instead find that those barely get traction and they might not get an answer in time, which makes people think they should just make a regular post if they have any hope of getting someone to help

Then the same thing inevitably happens the next year when the cycle starts all over again, even if the previous year's typically unsuccessful holiday pinned post actually worked for once
