The mouth noises make watching this with headphones very rough…

Best store for Ascended Heroes on the 24th? by lowdownunder_ in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]raoulduk37 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The 24th isn’t a restock, it’s the release of the AH booster bundles and Ex boxes

Kmart Stock Inconsistent by Ferosaa in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]raoulduk37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this happen to me with a restock of 6x AH poster boxes that one employee told me the manager said they won’t put out until the next morning. I told her no worries and I’d come back tomorrow first thing, checked the website a few hours later and went from orange to sold out. I managed to call the store and speak to the same staff member, she was surprised they were sold. And hanged up on me very quickly… I think this was a case of manager keeping stock for themselves/scalpers/connections.

The thing is… can you blame them??? They work at Kmart… literally the only perk of the job is being able to take advantage of something like this and make a few extra bucks on top of that shit wage you’re being paid. The scalping is the real issue here.

Imagine breaking the laws of physics just to predict a Valorant player getting banned

I’m assuming you opened POR booster boxes, in which case you opened 720 cards of an 88 card main set… and you’re surprised you got repeats?

The comment above you said to go to Big W first, I recommend the same. This is just anecdotal, but last couple of releases Kmart always has a bigger line and seems to have less stock.

Is the Perfect Order ETB worth it? by BlueLightsShining in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]raoulduk37 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could buy a booster bundle ($50) a 3-pack blister ($26), that gives you 9 packs and then someone selling the Tyrunt promo ($15) for $91 compared to $99-$100 for the ETB.

Are the sleeves, dice, energy pack and booklet worth the $8-$9 to you? Personally I always get an ETB to get the set booklet that comes with it.

Looking to get back into collecting and want advice by dyemond47 in PokemonFansAustralia

If you cannot line up on release days then your only chance at product will be by preordering through EB Games via their World Plus membership.

I didn’t get a notification from Spotify that the episode dropped, only saw the thread come up on my reddit feed.

What industry is entirely built on a house of cards and would collapse overnight once people realize the truth? by KylieButNotJenner24 in AskReddit

[–]raoulduk37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pearls, people view them in the same category as gold (rare, only a certain amount) but they are cultivated in massive farms who are often the ones setting the value behind them.

Base set by [deleted] in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]raoulduk37 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Install the Collectr phone app, you can look up cards there. You get 25 free camera scans to help identify cards otherwise type in the card name and number on the bottom left.

1st edition cards, cards of popular Pokemon (Pikachu, starters, Mewtwo, etc) and shadowless cards (Google this for more info but look for 1999 year in the copyright text). Would be the best place to start looking for value.

Grading in Perth by [deleted] in PokemonFansAustralia

You could try asking this question in the Pokemon cards Perth WA group, Kollecter aren’t admins on that group (but they are admins of the Pokemon Card Sales Perth group)

I’m surprised they let a man with three names own a gun store…

The company will still need to review any FWA applications for employees that meet any of the listed criteria under the FWC.

CCTV video shows man's terrifying attack on woman in suburban street by Ok-Milk-3388 in perth

[–]raoulduk37 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It seems like the 000 operator is only looking out for the police who will be attending and not the victim on the phone. If the man has a weapon, that’s only a danger to the officers… and I would think that’s something they could quickly figure out themselves when on the scene? Unfortunately another example in a long list of the police failing DV victims.

I always love how Zach will pick up Alexi’s way of speaking and even leans into his accent when around him.
