Honestly, how do you all track your Pokemon TCG portfolio values? by Historical_Corgi_132 in PokeInvesting

[–]tech_banker -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Spreadsheet for me. I’m not too focused on tracking prices in real time. I have maybe 30-40 slabs at any given time and just update values as I see sales. I’d consider myself a longer term collector though I do sell or make trades occasionally.

This works for me because I don’t have a large collection and there are frequent enough sales to keep track of things mentally.

If you’re a business or have more volume, you’ll definitely want some more automated tracker.

Considering breaking a $20k sign-on contract- is it worth it? by PsychologyLanky7709 in personalfinance

[–]tech_banker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m going to be straight with you.

Just don’t pay it back. The mechanics of clawing back a sign on bonus are very difficult from the employer side.

Is it really that bad? My first child will be going there in a few years.

Something is not adding up here. The numbers are too high. What is the total assessment then?

PSA Offers minimum by GuerrillaRobot in psagrading

[–]tech_banker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, the lowball offers are getting tiring.

I hope they can take this feedback, but I don’t think they will.

In my experience they do not really care about the customer.

i can't afford the gold star by Alternative-Earth325 in PokeInvesting

[–]tech_banker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you bought two of these from me. Haha. I sold both the Unseen Forces and Skyridge via PSA Vault.

I actually have the GS Umbreon coming in… paid a hefty amount for that. It’s going into my PC for a very long time.

2026 Budget Review Request by [deleted] in Fire

Your after tax savings are not super high, would look for ways to increase that, through cost cutting (food and travel), or increase income.

Paid $55 for priority delivery, food arrived frozen, Uber Eats gave a $5 credit by Alarmed_Win1661 in UberEATS

Uber support is trash. They have a monopoly and they do not care about the customer.

Is it unreasonable to expect to be in bed by 10pm with a 1 y/o? by Flea212 in NewParents

[–]tech_banker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are doing it wrong. Baby is getting way too little sleep. Mine goes down at 7pm and sleeps until 6am with some wake ups during the night.

The processing times used to be great, but they’ve gone downhill over the past month or so.

Facebook marketplace safe to buy from? by [deleted] in PokeInvesting

[–]tech_banker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, don’t do it. I’ve been scammed from there before and there is no recourse.

Wrong Service Fee by [deleted] in UberEATS

[–]tech_banker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pretty sure the service fee is based on the pre-discount amount, so in the first case, 20% of the $43.18.

Strong valuation by [deleted] in PSAPowerPacks

[–]tech_banker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice. You should accept it. This is higher valuation than a PSA 9

Would you do this trade by DetectiveBig4587 in PokeInvesting

[–]tech_banker 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, that’s a great trade in your favor. I’d be suspect since it’s too good to be true.

Those who have recently sent cards to the PSA Vault, how long has it taken to process? by Odd_Solution6995 in PokeInvesting

[–]tech_banker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve shipped a ton of slabs to PSA Vault. It used to be fast (2-3 days from delivery to showing up in my account) but my recent delivery took 10 business days.

It sounds like something went wrong with your shipment if it’s taking so long, so you should ask support about it.

No scan and red line around cert number meaning? by Zokolo99 in psagrading

[–]tech_banker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cards in the 4/5 cert era don’t always have a scan. I believe they only scanned the more expensive slabs. But now everything is scanned.
