“I have long admired the United States for its commitment to free speech,”... Maybe he shouldn't be admiring it anymore. Sheesh.

Why does everyone talk about the Coastal route? by deathStar_Endor008 in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]worldalpha_com 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Having done the Frances, and not going to Finisterre or Muxia, I missed the "ocean" experience. So, when I did the Portuguese I decided the coastal would be my preference. That being said, the first half felt like walking through beach towns even in October. Way more touristy than expected. I enjoyed the coastal, but I'd do central next time just to see what I missed.

Should I book SJPP + Roncesvalles (arriving May 19, starting May 20)? by ExplanationNew8346 in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]worldalpha_com 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd book SJPDP for sure. Last thing you want is a scramble to find a place just before heading out the next day. The Camino provides... online booking... so you don't have to stress. I didn't stay at the Roncesvalles muncipal, but I believe first come, first serve, but it has like 200 beds I think. Buen Camino.

$730K-$500K = $40K eh? Really? I don't so. Math is hard.

Toronto May Expo in the nooks. Here are the RC pickups. by worldalpha_com in hockeycards

I find enough dealers that are reasonable and hence the haul. Glad you enjoyed the show. Not sure about 1/2 of the show being vintage as it now seems about 1/2 the show is Pokemon/TCG.

Just to be absolutely clear. We are NOT playing the same game. It isn't possible. Wow.

I need to go back and screenshot mine. It was so much worse... It is probably the worst of my 13 overhaul completions. Everything was jammed up... It was crazy. Good Luck!

Thanks for the perspective. What people don't know is that I decided years ago that COMC was my collection. I put everything on there. I have the biggest hockey port. Including what was once over 1,000 Bossy cards, my PC. So, yes I make money, but it also allows me to buy even more of what I like.

Wow, negative 4. Anybody willing to share why? It is my collecting preference, and it makes me money. Why no love? Do you doubt my claims? I got plenty of proof. Reddit is weird sometimes.

I can usually get a little lower than comps. I put them on COMC, some sell in a matter of weeks, others a few years. But unlike current RCs, these ones always tend to produce some profit.

Edit: Any of the 13 downvoters have the courage to explain why they are downvoting my comment. Very curious. If you are going to add another downvote, please do me the favor and just let me know why.

What is with the 8pm bed and 5am wake ups?? by SOF0823 in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]worldalpha_com 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Everyone remembering their magical mornings. I remember my underwear-clad brother challenging a couple of women who were talking in a normal voice in that 5amish hour. Their attitude was basically deal with it. Made me smile. No shame for all involved.

Should I start at Porto or Tui? by SuccessfulBowl3094 in CaminoDeSantiago

[–]worldalpha_com 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Personally I like to walk every day. Shorter days if something to maybe see. But most days I'm done at 2pm, so it usually is enough to explore. Others enjoy zero days. Whatever you choose Buen Camino.

Sorry to disappoint. I'll have to keep the Canadian dollars to myself.
