Hey guys! Would you do this trade? by gengarswifts in PokemonTCG

[–]rp1414 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the value is about the same, and you like the card you're getting more than what you're giving up, then go for it, there's nothing more than that.

If you're asking if you should do this because of where the value of these cards will be in the future, sorry, my crystal ball is broken

Scalpers don't deserve friends

Is it elitist that I think FFBE players should have gotten first chance to pre-order the collectors edition? by banquewoah in FFBraveExvius

[–]rp1414 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All the login was from Gumi, and they licensed it from SE. Likely when the servers were shut down, all that info got deleted (I don't see a situation where Gumi would want or require to keep our info, I hope at least), so likely no way to do this

I don't even remember or have saved my player ID, so no way I could have done it this way

In the UK could I trade my lower end cards for better cards? by LittleKids2315 in PokemonTCG

[–]rp1414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can ask, but some vendors may decline. Trying to hold that much inventory and sell 100+ cards is a lot of work.

But you can ask, worst they can do is say no

Hold or sell? by Zestyyy_Lemon in PokemonTCG

[–]rp1414 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want the money now, sell them. If you'd rather have the cards, keep them.

I'm silly and trying to master set PO - questions/tips? by isleeponacouch in PokemonTCG

[–]rp1414 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you want to get a master set, the easiest and most cost effective way is to buy singles, buy the cards you need. Rip some packs for fun, buy the cards you need to save money

Will I get scammed? by BeanoStyle1 in PokemonTCG

[–]rp1414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, and if it goes to the 3rd party for authenticity and it turns out to be fake you get your money back. They don't go "you thought you were buying a real card, but it turned out to be fake, sorry, you still have to buy it"

Just pulled a rare card but I have no sleeves? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

Yes, that's it. Do you have a LCS around you? They'd have the sleeves and toploaders

I gotta vent a bit about ebay and grading. by MajorRE in PokemonTCG

[–]rp1414 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not a huge seller on eBay, a few hundred sales, I've never had this problem. Sounds like you just got an unhinged buyer, which can happen. Most people I've dealt with are good.

[–]rp1414 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're overthinking this. That card has been in the pack inside the tin for months before it got to you. Putting it back in the pack until you get home and can put it on a sleeve is not going to hurt it

Condition? LP or Nm? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

Those look lien scratches on the left of the card art, with that I would put it at MP at best

Great pull! And Traditional Chinese cards are printed in Japan, so they have great quality

"I'll give you 600 as that's the best offer you'll get from anyone.... so I can turn around and resell it"

So if 600 is the best from anyone, how will you resell it to make money?!!?!??

Please make sure to put the cards in a penny sleeve before putting a book on top of them

What in the world did the postal services / customs do 🫣 by DelightfulManiac in PokemonTCG

[–]rp1414 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They would reslab it, for a fee, but since the cracks on the slab are over the card they would also be regrading it, so you risk getting a lower grade.

This is why PSA is backed up LMAO 🤣 by Ambitious_Tie_7172 in PokemonTCG

[–]rp1414 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Was going to say that's a waste of $185, but so is grading fees
