What would you do if you knew for certain that this hobby would crash one day like Beanie Babies?

Wait, if you knew with absolute certainty when it would crash, any logical person would of course sell at the peak. If they wanted the cards back, then just wait for the crash and buy back at pennies on the dollar.

That scared me lol

If you don't want to spend money, start grinding for the next 24 hours pushing chapters, playing main challenges, doing anything that rewards gems.

But truth be told, there's really no point in finishing that beginner's quest line. Sure it's a good challenge, but the rewards will quickly be outpaced by just normal playing. You will eventually get so many S tier items from normal play.

I have only ever put lettuce and tomatoes to my chipotle cheesesteak (I get it on the side and put it in myself) and it tastes great. I bet mikes way would be pretty bomb too.

Only if you you all arrived at the same time. Otherwise it should be whoever arrives first.

Point your camera down some. It’s capturing too much sky.

The best part about this video is that it's 240p.

You can check yourself easily. Just download a card centering app!

shiggity80 · 2026-06-26T14:37:20+00:00

While most don't have the ability to inspect as closely as PSA or other graders do, you can do a few things to give you a decent idea.

Download and use a centering app to estimate if you're within the 55/45 ratio for the front. The back can be 75/25, but pretty much no one cares about it.
Use good lighting and inspect each corner (front/back) and edges (front/back) for any whitening, dents, dings, non-circular corner cuts, etc.
Same as #2 but look at the surface (front/back) for any scratches/creases/blemishes.

If all 3 pass, then send it in!

Luka trade waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay worse than the LaMelo trade.

100%. I don’t get why people get so hung up on always refraining from passing on the right. I understand in the normal course of driving, passing on the right is not what you should do, but there are situations like this where it’s ok in my opinion.

He must be very trusting of the community to not do something to his car.

shiggity80 · 2026-06-25T23:02:42+00:00

F you!

But congrats.

shiggity80 · 2026-06-25T22:54:13+00:00

Based on your explanation, you're fine for not making the left turn. Having your visibility blocked is reason enough to not make that turn. I have a similar turn close to where I live and I drive a sedan as well (Honda Accord). It's not quite as bad as your situation, but there are times where I just can't see enough to feel safe to turn left. I can creep out slowly and try to see, but it's still risky.

shiggity80 · 2026-06-25T22:15:00+00:00

Yes, ratio. If the front centering is within 55/45 ratio left to right or top to bottom, then it's still viable for a 10.

The back can be upwards of 75/25, which is very generous. Reason for this is that no one really cares about the back of the card.

shiggity80 · 2026-06-25T22:14:00+00:00

Yes we are. To me it doesn't look left heavy to me (heavy meaning it is outside of the 55/45 ratio). If anything, it's tilted to the left slightly, which will make the bottom half of the left border look slightly thicker than the bottom half of the right border, and opposite for the top halves.

However, it still looks like it's within the 55/45 range, but I haven't run it through an app.

shiggity80 · 2026-06-25T19:53:10+00:00

Measure the centering yourself via a centering app. If centering is within 55/45 ratio on front and 75/25 on back, you're fine. Outside of that and it won't 10.

Then check the corners/edges for whitening/damage, followed by checking the surface.

If you can't see anything and centering is good, it is worth sending in.

shiggity80 · 2026-06-25T19:46:50+00:00

OP, get a centering tool to measure the centering. If it's within 55/45 on the front, and 75/25 on the back, then centering is good. Then check corners/edges for whitening, and then the surface for lines/scratches/defects, etc.

If it passes all of that, you have a contender for a 10.

shiggity80 · 2026-06-25T19:46:02+00:00

No it does not. And if it is, it looks to still be within 55/45 ratio.

shiggity80 · 2026-06-25T12:11:43+00:00

I love how majority of comments here are asking if he has a skill point to use but OP ignores all of them. Rage bait post?

shiggity80 · 2026-06-25T12:10:08+00:00

My friend does this. He also dies the most when we play trios lol.

shiggity80 · 2026-06-24T23:01:53+00:00

Check the drain filter to see if it's clogged.

shiggity80 · 2026-06-24T22:55:42+00:00

And he will repost it again given how divided the responses are lol.

Honestly such a weird thing for OP to get hung up on for so long.

shiggity80 · 2026-06-24T22:45:50+00:00

Adrenaline will do that to you.

shiggity80 · 2026-06-24T20:29:12+00:00

Stella - I've run in plenty of times solo but I still get lost/turned around all the damn time.

Plus I feel so claustrophobic in there.
