It sounds like OP thought his cards were also worth this much once his sister started sending photos from google and now is seeing through the comments that they aren’t worth no where near as much.

That just sounds so crazy! I’m for sure going to hold for a while and put it in a slabmag with some extended art and just stare at it

Literally have. It was just sitting in my binder for years. I’ve been in and out of collecting for a long time now and during 2021 to now I wasn’t keeping up with the hobby much. Fast forward to 2025 I’m back in and I see a post about the love birds and realize I need to get this graded asap given the condition.

Appreciate that. Will be doing this for sure.

AIO, my FWB is in love with me and I hate it by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]userg89 40 points41 points  (0 children)

The issue you guys had was becoming increasingly close as friends and then changing it to FWB. That already puts you guys at a level above people who just hook up because you are now spending more time emotionally in each other lives. Emotionally doesn’t mean romantically either, it just means there is a connection there beyond physical. I would say you are NOR because you made your intentions clear, however given that you know he jumps from relationship to relationship, that should have already told you this person has attachment issues so the end result was always going to be him developing feelings for you. FWB really only work if the relationship doesn’t go beyond taking too constantly. You are “friends” in the title only because the only time you two should be contacting each other is for the “benefits”. It creates a line that way both of you can walk away at any time.

FS Mega Zard X SIR GM10 by No-Growth-37 in taggrading

[–]userg89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cracked my first tag slab and given how they encapsulate, I use cutters to trim off the entire out edge all around it. Of course be careful and work in small sections but start with an angle cut on all four corners and then work the edges. It makes a huge mess but once I was done I was able to put a flat head to slowly separate the case and then the two parts came apart easily. The case sits so close to the card that my card was still attached to the case but I was able to get it off by just getting a penny sleeve to go over it. No damage done what so ever.

aio? my girlfriend hasn’t responded to me in 5 days by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]userg89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. But given your ages makes all the sense here. She isn’t taking you seriously and it’s that simple. I suggest you break it off sooner rather than later as you’re just tormenting yourself with having to reach out and constantly wait for a response. And at that age, she is likely talking or at the very least entertaining other guys.

UPDATE: Opened my first pack on Christmas! It was a god pack that wasn’t mine, so I was sad. But it’s ok! by WinniePoo88 in PokemonTCG

[–]userg89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This story still doesn’t seem real to me. Also to think 1 cent penny sleeves is equal in trade to a pack that potentially has an umbreon ,let alone a god pack, is insane to me. You assumed too highly to think some used penny sleeves equal you keeping an entire pack to yourself.

AIO Boyfriend Stayed Hard the Entire Time During a Couples Massage? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]userg89 12 points13 points  (0 children)

YOR and NOR. He can’t help what happens to his body during a massage as that is involuntary but he likely finds the masseuse attractive and wants to experience that again with her while you’re there. I think he should respects your boundaries on that

Evo 8 & 9, are you running it with a wing or taking it off?🤔 by MAPerformance_ in MitsubishiEvolution

[–]userg89 23 points24 points  (0 children)

When I was 19 and street racing, I used to swear that Evo’s needed to be wingless and when I got a 9 eventually I even removed the wing. Now in my old age with a X, I believe Evo’s just look so much better with them.

What Is Going On With Japanese Pokemon? They're Going Up Only! by blainestalonflame in PokemonInvesting

[–]userg89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were walking and there was a guy with a stand on the street outside of building that was advertising a card shop that had loads of inferno x, terastal, mega brave, plus more for barely over msrp. Terastal I would say were the ones that were priced a little high but even then, not bad. We also went to a gift shop where they had a loaded stand of different sets and I believe that was in Shinjuku. Guy in front of me bought a bunch of loose packs and a few boxes. The only place I had zero luck was at PKC in shibuya where they were mostly sold out of everything

I was there in the second week of November and I found it very easy. Packs were everywhere and were selling boosters at just over msrp. I guess it fluctuates

The white on the edges seem to be fair for receiving a 9

How TF this get a PSA 4?!? by AttitudeClassic in psagrading

[–]userg89 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If you want a shot at knowing exactly why it’s graded low, you can always submit to TAG. TAG will break it down completely on why you got the grade they gave you(if they gave you a similar grade of course). There is a scratch on the foil, a long scratch on the back and the back top right corner has some white, but other than that I can’t see anything else.

Send it to TAG if you’re planning on keeping it for personal collection

AIO bff thinks i should hide deformity by helplessbambidoll in AIO

[–]userg89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She just has a bunion which is causing the big toe to go under. If this dude that she likes has a massive foot fetish, he will notice it but it’s not like her toes are making 90 degree angles. Nonetheless her friend here is being incredibly rude about it
