Which SV sets are the best?
>>58191304I own all the cards that I post>>58191234I literally took the picture of this card and cropped it. I am not the Houndoom poster.
>>58191304you dont have cards esse. you have aids.
>>58191316For me? It's Shrouded Fable
>>58191335>For me? It's Shrouded FableWhy? Some cards are so memorable to you? If so, Which ones?
>still buying physical
>>58191304posted it a few threads back but here u go again
PSA be griefing me. deff a 9 for the pikachu and a 10 for the shattershot mewtwo. wheres your cards bitch. >>58191304
>>58191366those are not 10s
>buy secret Mega Absol ex in glorious nippon version>she's really warped like a pringle Anybody else have problems with the new Mega cards?
>>58191369if i was a PSA grader, id give you a PSA 2. because you doo doo.
>>58191341The ARs all look great, so do the SARs when displayed together. And the promos are the best of the SV era.
>im just going to bitch about people posting cards, but im not going to post any of my ownwhy are they like this?
>>58191328Why do they always have backwards caps?
>>58191551To hide the baldspot
Gonna post some old buys.
>>58191180I am buying more casually these days and following the hobby from a distance. After skipping Unova entirely, my next purchase will be a few ARs from the new Mega sets. No waifu stuff or overpriced SAR stuff. I will probably stop collecting altogether by the time the current era ends and the new generation finally comes out. Picrel is some alt arts I bought all the way back in May, my final pieces from the SS era
Well?You aren't poor, right?
>>58191832>Chinese
>>58191304In October I'll buy the AR I need from the most recent journey/rocket/mega sets and complete some illustrated evolutionary lines in my binder.
TRVKE: if you started collecting after 2018 you are not a real fan and you never will be
>>58191918kino
>>58191832Black label cult are genuinely disturbed.
>>58191923I started collecting in 2015t. real fan
>>58191993>kawayoo AND Braixen fanI kneel.
>>58191832the ethical complaint i will make is that any company can print something and slap a price tag on it. this would be like america printing 1 trillion dollar bills to pay off the countries debt.is that what china doing at this point? creating artifical wealth through printing pokemon cards without organic growth? this should be illegal to some degree or at least put on your adult shoes for a moment and realize that its not always just cardboard and holofoil. but sometimes its fucking cardboard and holofoil.
>>58191366lmfao I love this kind of copetry explain that to whoever you’re selling or showing off to: “no, I swear it’s actually a 10, they just aren’t doing it right”
>>58191787top tier Genesect
>>58191923If you werent of collecting age or didnt exist before 1999, youre not a true fan.
>>58191386Same for the one I pulled. It's pretty common for jap cards and it uncurls over time
My husband and I make the same amount of money and we split major expenses 50/50, including a $6,000/month mortgage and property taxes, and $3,000/month for daycare for our toddler. We have two little ones, two years apart—the younger one is 7 months old and currently home with us and we plan to send her to daycare after she turns 1. In terms of household responsibilities, I carry more of the load—he does maybe 30% of the housework and he complains every single time.Here’s the thing: our combined incomes pretty much just cover our mortgage and the daycare expenses for both kids if we decide to send both of them. That’s it. There’s very little left over, and I feel the financial stress every single day.
>>58192420The issue that’s driving me over the edge is his obsession with Pokémon collectibles. He spends thousands on credit card every month—I’m talking plushies, skateboards, card holders, and, of course, the cards themselves. He spends most of his time staring at the computer trying to catch every single drop and often buys multiples of the same item. His justification is that some of these items will increase in value over time and he wants to resell them for a profit later—supposedly to pay for our kids’ college.I don’t stop him anymore because we’ve had so many arguments about it. Our “solution” has been to keep finances separate so I don’t control how he spends his money. But it doesn’t feel like a real solution. He keeps trying to convince me to invest my money into this Pokémon stuff too, but I don’t feel comfortable doing that. I’m already stressed, and I believe in spreading risk, not doubling down on a speculative market.
>>58192428Every time he misses a product drop or I don’t show enough enthusiasm, he gets super upset and accuses me of not understanding “the market” or supporting him. He expects me to be super onboard with him just like those influencer couples in the Pokémon field. He’s said things like, “If you don’t understand the market, then you don’t get to f*cking speak” multiple times. That line still rings in my ears. It feels emotionally abusive. I feel completely disregarded and alone.Today he wanted to spend $400 on a Pokémon plushie—two of them, actually—just to play with them. Every time when he asks me “Should I spend XX to buy this?” My answer is always “It is up to you because that’s your money”. But that was the last straw for me. I feel like I’m watching our family’s stability go up in smoke for the sake of some fantasy investment plan. I want a divorce. I want out of this. Now he thinks that I am overreacting because I don’t understand the market.
Costco releasing Prismatic Mini Tins along with promo cards of each eeveelution. I dont know if theyll have unique foiling like cosmos or not or just be a straight up card from packs. Maybe even the pokeball or master ball who knows. But costco usually does reverse holos with cosmos foiling on their promos.
>>58192743>Be 2023>Go to LGS>Buy Mew Ultra Premium Collection, 151 ETB, 151 Booster Bundle, Poster Collection, Binder Collection, Zapdos Box, Alakazam Box, and one of each tin>All under msrp>Tons of stock>Remains there for weeks>Every other pay cheque I stop by and pick up more 151>Eventually master the set.>2024 & 2025 everyone screaming about 151 not being in stockNo one actually wanted it until people started showing off their collection and how cool of a set it was. Justa bunch of kids seeing another kid with a ball and wanting their ball.
>>58192761I just want product to be available at retail stores and on Pokémon center dot com again.
>>58192761>No one actually wanted it until people started showing off their collection and how cool of a set it was. Justa bunch of kids seeing another kid with a ball and wanting their ball.i feel exactly the same about mega charizards nowBut i have an excuse - when these came out - i was during my important life period with lots of stuff and pokemon was one of my least interests.I had no fucking idea this card is so cool and how rare it is to find it not fucked upin fact-it's impossible.only now when megas are hype, i see this card and scratch my head - i never even saw it anywhere around the time when set was released
>>58192082i wouldnt sell to pieces of shit here. i would send out a card and they would claim it would be lost in the mail. dishonorable people. i show off cards because im a collector. its not a cope BTW. plenty of people get shit grades and not question the fact that a high school drop out or illegal immigrant may not do the job right. you know their grading facility is in the city of industry CA, right? the only person coping here is yourself for putting so much faith into retards. i have sat upon these cards for years. i stare at them. look at them. i question their grades, i literally see nothing wrong with them. i sit and stare at them for YEARS. some fucking illegal looks for 30 seconds high off weed and fucks me out of thousand of dollars. i know my cards look better than the grades. some they are accurate and i question nothing. but you are a coper. you never been like me.
>>58192434easy ragebaitprobably got hundreds of replies on reddit
They just announced that Project Voltage will get official merch in Pokemon centers soon, will it be TCG related?
quick question. why would i sell my cards that i feel should be higher grade for hundreds, when the next guy that gets them, sits on them and starts questioning the same thing. he sends them in and he gets the thousands for hundreds. all because some retard on the internet that doesnt know shit says im full of crap. whatever. im not selling. im looking to regrade. then when its worth the value i believe it shoud be, then i consider a sell. you never did this kind of mental jumping jacks because you are a binderfag.
>gengar set>better looking Dark Souls charizard setyeah...I stopped all my spendingsall my spendings on a high saving power My wallet and both of my pockets preparing for this set.I wont be buying pokemon cards until this set comes out.god this will be epicEven if i wont get anything on shelves for Christmas - i will be glad to syphoning stamped cards or promos or anything like that. the set didnt come out yet and im already in love with it
Just bought these cards.
I wish I knew had good I had a few years ago and hadn't been lazy about buying singles.How was I supposed to know everything would go up 20-100+% in a single year.Obvious in hindsight I suppose, obviously if collectors can't buy to rip they'll buy singles, I don't think I could have anticipated buy-outs though, that shit is too scummy to ever cross my mind.
>>58192465Damn it I have a SAMS CLUB membership not a COSTCO one, this is such fuckong horse shit.
>>58192950>Bought 2 of these off cardmarket back in like 2019>Hilariously fake>Got my money back and lost interest afterwards for a while so never actually got itI did pull the Generations one at least
>>58193171you're getting your own prismatic exclusive at sams club
>>58192743>Friend studying in Amsterdam when these were given out>He was nice enough to go out and get me one even though he has 0 interest in pokemonI should have told him to get multiple. Would have been easy money
>>58193494Another fucking Lucario and T-tar box set from Sams?
>>58192465My dad works at Costco so I'll get two there and my buddy works there so I'll get two from him and sell those on ebay for twice the price.
>want to collect all the cards of a specific Pokemon>know there are some brutally expensive cards because its Tyranitar >haven't checked prices in eight months because I was in jailHoly fuck this shit has gotten retarded.Also DUI related if you're curious.
>>58193778Give them back Jamal
Can someone here give me some insight about some card values?I want to sell my 2010 Pikachu World Collection (not sealed but Near Mint) on Cardmarket, but I have the ones with the western back, and most people there seem to be selling the cards with the japanese back so I'm not really sure what would be a fair price to ask for the 9 cards.I calculated a price already asking for around half the value of the listings there for each card: 445€. I feel that may still be a bit too much for only 9 cards, even if they're valuable.I want to sell the cards fast so I also don't want to ask for too much money and have people not buying them.
>>58192420>>58192428>>58192434this is straight from plebbit, isn't it? Didn't even bother reading past the first post
>>58192761I have a goal to finish BBWF but there's fuck all product anywhere. This fucking sucks.>inb4 buy singlesI would if they weren't overpriced as fuck due to lack of stock.
>>58193778>DUI relatedRetard.
>>58194277thanks for the input!
>>58192986Doubt it, but I hope Rin will get something.
Anon should i preorder this card?there are many lots like this on ebay. even from japanese sellers i already bought from previouslyat lest this way i will be protected from any market bullshit
>>58194347Good replybait
>>58194351im not baitingi think trying to get this card this year will be a pain in the ass>sets get released>everything is awfully expensive>you can't get boxes so you wont be able to open boosters and pull it yourself
>>58192761>Be 2022 go to LGS >Booster boxes are like $100-$110>Go online to TCG player and other sites>Booster boxes there are $90 and under MSRP does not, and never mattered, what matters is getting the best deal you can within any given market situation
>>58194367Not a single double rare japanese card has ever been more than $2 even at their peaks. Every single double rare in the latest mega set is less than a dollar. You might actually be stupid if you're paying $30 for one of them
>>58194264Is this you?
>>58194393i agree.just trying not to fuck myself up because its "charizoooord" because "dark epic mega charizard X" will be probably the symbol of an upcoming generation
>>58194347>japanese card>not a full art>eurosAt best you get the card for 35, at worst this card drops to 1.99 and never rises above 10Don't buy standard japanese cards until the english counterparts have been out for a while
>>58194421thanks anonWhat is your opinion on Lucario card?im really trying not to miss on this one. I missed on most of big epic chase Sword-Shield cards and barely touched s/v era (thanks god i was smart enough to buy Magicarp when it was around $50).i assume this Lucario is a ticking bomb because americans didnt recieve these sets yet.I won't be buying a $150-200 mega lucario but japanese $70-80 lucario sounds amazing an i can totally afford it TODAY!
>>58194428japanese cards will alway be worth less than english cardsthe exceptions are for exclusive promos and stampslucario card, whether it goes up or down, it will always be cheaper than the english oneremember, this lucario card had people paying $100 for on preorder/release date, now it's already $70-80 and it's not even a japanese exclusive even the red victini, got an english set which brought the price down somewhat, always wait for stabilization
>>58194478>lucario card, whether it goes up or down, it will always be cheaper than the english onebut that's exactly why im asking anon...read:>>58194428>I won't be buying a $150-200 mega lucario but japanese $70-80 lucario sounds amazing an i can totally afford it TODAY!i'm 100% sure i won't be able to afford american/english Mega Lucario.especially because soon we going to have the "actual hype set" with Gengar and Mega Charizard EX.I believe that this Lucario will become one of the chase cards. And just want to secure a hit and have it.And be happy with "owning an expensive chase card".Of course it won't be more expensive than english version.THE PROBLEM IS: The english version will be almost unabtainable (hyped up prices + more expensive than current japanese prices + upcoming mega-sets)PS:In fact i can actually add picrelated card as a bonus
>>58194478I'll never understand why cards with a shitty color filter ruining the color is considered good, valuable, or in demand.
>>58193545>I should have told him to get multiple. Would have been easy moneyi saw it with my eyes - people were getting 60-100 cards because it was SOOOO easyThis why i'm not surprised picrelated photos exist:
>>58194533They are trying to copy one piece tcg unrionically but pokemon has significantly worse texturing
>>58194478>the exceptions are for exclusive promos and stampsand waifus, dumbass, you forgot the most important exception
>>58194541the japanese waifu cards are MORE expensive the english ones?
>>58194402No, I'm only putting the set on Cardmarket and it's not available yet because I have my account on vacation.
I miss blue label cgc...
>>58194669Why does Acerola seem to look so downsy?
>>58193059really cool inexpensive cards anongot this card LP or MP today for 50 to start off my mega evo collection, kinda worn down but front looks good so fine to me
>>58194693Based
>>58194693Nice! I paid $50 for the Hydreigon, $10 for the Drowzee, $21 for the Gastly and $8 for the Slowpoke.
>>58194669blue labels looks so ugly and dogshitit's a shame the best grading labels are from the shittiest companies

>releasing later this Septemberwe are so fucked....
>>58194725As bad as the 3d mega cards are, they will never look as shit as the Break cardsWhat the fuck were they thinking?
>>58194680Idk, but she's racist>>58194705Yours? Very cool>>58194718Who you like?
>>58194622yes? Have you seen how much Lillie's cards go for in Japanese?
>>58194537>but pokemon has significantly worse texturingJapanese or international? Don't own any Wan Piss cards but if they're anything like the currect Digimon TCG ones then that's straight up wrong.
>>58194740Breaks themselves were creative, they just fumbled really fucking badly on the execution. fucking solid gold?
>>58194516>>58194478>>58194428>>58194421I didn't buy Mega Lucario - spent it on another pokemon product.(i was going to buy a set of these Lucario cards at these prices)But i will post these prices just for future - as a time capsule.Today is 01.09.2025.I will save this and screenshot this post.Let's see how bad my choice will be a year later!
>>58194740They wanted to bring back Lv.X but it ended up being a soulless imitation in every way possible.
>buy booster bundle in a lucky restock check>get a Reshiram EX and a Heatmor illustrationWHAT A FUCKING SCAM AAAAAAAAH I WAITED SO LONG FOR THE CHANCE TO RIP AND I GET FUCKED BY THESE PULL RATES AAAAAAAH
>>58192359That's good. I think she'll flatten out in my binder.
>>58194740Keep in mind pokemon made sideways cards that looked like this 7 years prior
>>58195248Break cards aren't shit because they're sideways, they're shit because they look ugly, gold effect shading/lighting looks cheap, the background effects look amateur, and the overall color scheme is unappealing
>still buying modern
>still posting Psyduck
>>58194722>still not getting it Stop trying.

Was gonna grade until I realized how fucking stupid and unprofessional grading companies are. Just gonna get nice cases for them and call it a day
XY era full arts hit different when you shine a light on them in specific places.
>>58195920XY is the only era where English texture looks better than Japanese
in fact in the newer modern full art cards and cards from the Sun and Moon era, they didnt fully utilize the texture on the cards, so when you light them up you dont get the same effects as XY era full artsbut you know contrarians just go>EWW 5BANbut the modernshit actually has drawbacks and is not as good as texturing on non 3d models so you cannot get the same effect.AKA fuck you, my cards are cool. you just dont understand, normie.
>>58195933i know, it was different era. S&M stopped doing HQ texturing with lighting. and newer cards are way too sparkly for the lighting effects to actually work. there are plenty of people that brag how much brigther and cooler japanese cards are, but in reality it was done intentionally at one point in time to be an effect to enhance and make the cards feel more alive.
in fact some designs were too intentional. almost utilizing the lighting to be one of mewtwo's orbs or the sun. normies just dont get XY.
in fact this is how i view modern collectors when they shit talk 5ban. they are never going to get it.
>>58195895>ugly card>in a psa casescumbag
>>58195949>>581960005ban 3D models will always be shit regardless of the era, the point was about the card texture. In modern cards Jap looks way better because they follow the artwork with different texture patterns, while English slaps the same fingerprint-like texture everywhere, which also has a slightly opaque finish that makes colors look more washed out than japanese.English XY had thick texture but it had great patterns and no opacity.
Fuck, I pretty much have every card I wanted but I'm still buying packs. This shit is way too addicting
anons should i go full degen on this card?i feel like this is the last chance while they calmed down.This card is soooo amazingI dont believe it will be any cheaper than mews or charizards. THIS IS THE QUEEN!!!
https://youtu.be/gu3775lAicQ>main charizard card is not revealed yet>nobody still know if that revealed card was fake or real> hypew e a r e f u c k e d
>>58195933XY is when I started collecting and playing the tcg with my wife. Still love all the cards from that era. Fates collide, Evolutions, and BREAKpoint are still some of my favorite sets. Actually have a English master of BREAKpoint. Love the shiny Gyarados cards released in this set. The secret rare is beautiful. This Alakazam is also amazing in person.
>>58196599based cards enjoyer
>>58196557It's obviously real
>>58196628no confirmationBut i'm leaning towards real. Because1) the art is so epic - i dont think some artist actually spent time for a shitty fake meme to make this pefrect art2) AI is not capable to make such seamless perfectly representive illustration of pokemonstill it's WEIRD people just ignoring this... i assume most of people just think it's fakeBut if it's real - we are F U C K E D
>>58196604Kek thanks. I did collect in play the game as a kid. I sctuslly stopped after Ruby and Sappire. I can even remember getting the Diamond and Pearl cards and being really disappointed to the point I just stopped collecting. I kick myself alot because I remember seeing the cool Heartgold and soulsilver set and just ignored it.
Just preordered two boxes of japanese Inferno X.bros...i have so much nostalgia about Charizard X i was using back in 3DS timesand those 2016 cards were so cool but there is no way i can afford them in non fucked up condition.I will stop spamming this thread with Inferno X now....all i need is to wait for preorders to arrive.i dont care about anything - all that matters that i won't miss an amazing set now!I WON'T MISS IT THIS TIME!!!
>>58191180How do I go back in time to 2014 to kick my own ass for opening up a pack of 1st Ed Neo Destiny that I was gifted?
Not bad for $3.
>>58196870Nice Ghos card
I haven't seen any sets in stock locally since obsidian flames.
Ah yes a new Charizard chase, that will cool off the hobby a bit.Thank you TPC.
>>58197014whole s/v charizard cards were fucked because they were gimmick cards with stupid hat.I didn't care when they were super cheap and still don't care even if shiny one kind of better. But overall Scarlet-VIolet charizards are all ass.This Mega-charizard is THE mega-charizard X.I'm even okay with buying multiple Mega charizard EX cards - even they look better than those glass/hat chase ones
>>58197039the Inferno X charizard is basically picrelated:
Are BBWF rates different because of all the extra variants thanks to the ball patterns, or did I just get lucky? This is from a WF booster bundle. 6 boosters gave me 8 rares, 1 double rare, and 1 art rare, plus Cottonee and Stoutland with pokeball patterns.

>>58198013It's a schizo thing
OH NO BUTTHOLE PIKACHU BROS???!?!?!?
>>58198223this was a meh set when it was releasedWe knew we getting Eevie-set when this was coming out and everybody just passed on it.But it will rise in the future and everybody will be like "WHAAAAT??? THAT PIKACHU WAS SO CHEAP AND NOBODY CARED ABOUT IT UNTIL EVERYBODY DID!!!"

I am keeping all my toploaders in a box of these since I don't have a binder but the thought of cardboard dust bothers me.
>>58198314i bought 2 ETB in my life and both of them are perfect for my collection that i keep outside of binders.just buy an ETB and keep toploaders in itcardboard produces cardboard dust. you will notice dust inside of toploaders sooner or later.
>>58198013So it cant be used by people who produce fakes and get their card deactivated.
>>58198370pisses me off that psa will deactivate a card just because someone calls them or emails them about it
>>58198370>>58198378none of that is real, stop being retarded

>>58198407If a card isnt accurately graded, you can email psa advising them, and they will deactivate (though this usually has to significant)Also if fakes use that cert, it will inevitably result in the deactivation of the real cert as well when the fakes fet reported and youll have to resubmit for a new cert. All of this is true and happens frequently people are just retarded and dont check their certs activation very often.But we can easily go on ebay now and find fake slabs with real certs and some will be deactivated due to reports some will still be active.Man people are fucking stupid in this hobby to even think this is made up
>>58198484alright anon - i will mail some cards from people i envy and their cards will be cancelledhehethey paid so much but in a snap of a finger i will just delete their efforts haha :Dfucking retard...
Whats more likely, people cover certs because theyre schizo.Or because theres a documented history of people using real certs to manufacture fake slabs with real certs.Hmm clearly people must be schizo because new goof tourists dont know shit about this hobby.
>>58198255Based boomer, nothing past GSC matters
>>58198463But what about the exclusive singapore bulbasaur with KFC stamp printed in only 50 copies distributed during a lottery in 1954?
>>58198546vintagecuck lol!
>>58198577Posting the faggot duck doesn't help your case there, buddy.
>>58198255VGH they don't make real fans like that anymore

Am I crazy or does this price for this card slabbed not make sense?Any odds on it going down?
>>58198338I'm gonna put them in a ziploc bag standing upright in that box for the time being.

>>58198872Doubling down doesn't make you look any less gay, dude.
>>58198872>>58198882Uh oh! zoomzooms wetting their diapers on isle 3!
>>58197987>I can't tell what the cards are if there's imperfect lighting!I'm on my own phone and I see them just fine, rotation notwithstanding. There's two poke balls and a master ball, and the holographic patterns are clearly visible on the edges even if you don't get the prettiest angle of it shining across the front. You might be retarded or blind if you need extra help seeing the cards. Honestly, with how many phone pics get posted in these threads, you should be used to random head shadows by now.
>>58198719>real fans comsoom long past the point where they lost interest
>>58198949relax. I just wanted a better photo because I like the cards.
Picked this up for $40 because there are creases here and there on the back. Good thing it's just gonna sit in a binder and look pretty
>>58197696Prime example of true collectors even collect worthless cards.See a lot of people say theyre collectors but then all their binders and shit are just the hits. And its like fuck off, you just like money and potential future money.
>>58199002>he bought damaged modern card>damaged>modern cardanon what the fuck...and you even spent 40...what the fuck anon holy shitI didn't buy picrelated card because it's not perfect and it's an almost low-pop cardbut you bought a damaged modern card...holy shit
>>58199073At least hes a true collector, dmg is a sign he aint in it for the money. I think that guys cooler then you.
>>58199002based
>>58199107do you feel better, you little faggot?hehego and stroke it because here is: (you)just for you anon!
Apparently someone in buying up all of this Giratina card
>>58198314Why not just get a top loader binder
>>58199300Wonder how much this would go for in psa 10. Burgerking promos were peak soul
>still posting Accelgor
Big man blastoise page from my 151 extended series binder.
I really like pidgey, his cameos in the snorlax IR, squirtle & bulbasaur IR from stellar crown, Pikachu IR, and Machoke IR just make him a special part of this binder
why is it everytime i go to the store the pokemon cards are always sold out; meanwhile you have other series that are just unsold.
>>58199600Theres like a massive journey together reprint
>>58199339I don't have the money right now
These 2 chink cuties just arrived. Imagine the threesomes.
What if these are released in English bros?
>>58199819>Pikachu cards get thrown into a 30th anniversary box product as promos>Pikachu & Gengar, and Cubone get thrown in Trick or Trade>Meowth into some random future set as an IR.>Mew as apart of some 30th anniversary celebration set.Idk not likely but could see it happen, I feel like these investors need a good shake up. Let them know chinese isnt a safe hold. Ya know?
>>58199819>>58199830English cuck cope is hilarious. English extra battle day Lillie any day now, right?
The only person I know with these in their 151 master set is DJ Gygabyte and maybe Dave Persin.Goddess Rare has the professor voltorb.151 enthusiasts make some of the best collection videos on YouTube. Maybe if I win the lottery one day i'll get these cards.
>>58199840Well thats a card for pedos, so understandably thats never coming to English. Gotta so its hella fucking weird, in a game about Monsters bros are collecting underaged characters.
$681 USD NM on collectr Hopefully you guys bought it at release for $100. I think two weeks ago it was $400.Probably gonna hit $800 in a couple weeks.
>>58199853grandmaster*
>>58199819A lot of people dont realize this because they dont actually pay attention to card text or play the game.But all those cards are mechanically the exact same as Scarlet & Violet 151 cards, thus illustration rare alternative arts.
>>58191180Bombshell drop time:Get unlimited of whatever is in the machineJust go to my Disc-SHUT THE FUCK UP FUCK YOUR DISCORD FUCK YOUR SPONSORED CLICKBAIT AND FUCK YOUR DMS HERE YOU GO EVERYONE:Step 1: If the machine is out of stock, you will need to wait for product to become available which is determined throughout the day randomly. That is a fact.Step 2: Be aware that other people might be loitering / monitoring the machine. Beat them. They are who are clearing it out with what I am about to tell you below.Step 3: When you have anything in the machine, grab all of it no matter what using the below method:Step 4 and this is the big one:Mash the home button as fast as you can with your left hand / fingers in a drumming motion as rapidly as humanely possible.Using the accessibility d-pad, press the center button and the right button in a series of sequences to try and get lucky with the timing.Note: Product is ALWAYS is in the top left whenever anything is available for sale in that moment, no matter what). Be prepared for too many of Journey Together, Stellar Crown, etc if the good stuff was already taken / cleared out beforehand by someone else.Note 2: It is a very fast series of the following possible combinations:Home (touch screen), Center button (to select), right (to choose the plus button), Center button (to increase qty once + is highlighted), then Home to do it all over again.Again:Home-Center-Right-CenterHome-Center-Right-CenterHome-Center-Right-CenterHome-Center-Right-CenterThere is a possibility some button orders are flipped or required that I am missing here.Home-Center-Center-RightHome-Center-Right-Center-CenterHome-Center-Right-Right-CenterHome-Center-Right-Right-Center-RightTry 'em all, then once you figure it out, beat the scalpers at their own game.END OF STORY>how do u know it works>my dad works at nintendoNaah, this is the play.GG.
>>58199886NO IDIOT HAVENT U SEEN POP REPORTS AAAHHHHHAHAHAHAH 10 DOLLAR CARD MAX TWO WEEKS TO THE CRASH!!!!!!
>>58199906I will now begin scalping, thank you.
>>58199906The closest one of these is like 100 miles away from me so I dont really care
151 Master Set chads are we winning?
This is coming out October 24th, we gonna get any exclusives or variants with it or what?
i hate hoarders and scalpers. i bet they even rig the card rate of getting ultra rares (full arts) before the package them.
>>58199988probably not but those fezandipiti are expensive because of their playability
>>58199906don’t care
Whats going on with trick or trade this year?
psa pop report is the only thing that matters. continue buying modern slop if you want to keep setting your money on fire.
>he’s awakeand that’s it for this thread
>>58199658I've noticed that but I'm only interested in DR right now
>>58199819Wait, I thought the Gengar was haunting Pikachu but it's looking the same direction as the Ekans and the Pikachu like all three of them are looking at something else. That kinda ruins it
>>58199906Game across a scalper once emptying a machine, some morbidly obese chick. When I came up and asked if there was anything left she said "sharing is caring" and ran off with like half the machine's stock. She was probably pissed that she left behind the 1 151 booster bundle because she got caught
>>58200278Zombie parasect under a full moon is kino
>>58200278Are they looking at a Hypno or Golbat?
>>58200339They're looking at their abusive trainer, Gengar is actually trying to hide behind the tree and the Parasect has just accepted the abuse.
>>58199904My nephew "plays" Pokemon but he just has his own game he plays like I did when I was a kid. Adults just like the collectibility. I've never met anyone who knew how to play the actual game
The card hobby cools off and everyone fucks off to lego soon for blind packs chasing lego charizard.
>>58200647Lego is BASED loved that shit as a kid
>>58200647>18+Lego sets of pokegirls in lingerie?
What's the most you've spent for a single? 180 here.
>>58200753220it still hasnt been shipped
>>58200753Like $15
I want this as a full art so bad. I love Sandslash
>>58200753220 euros for japanese bubble mew, haven't got it yet
>>58200845Jap is 220 already? I'm so happy I got it for half that in april
>>58201167>>58200845>didn't buy Kanda Magikarp even if it was $49>didn't buy Bubble Mew even if it was $80sometimes i'm dumb
>tfw picrelated japanese are $1000+ for both and sometimes $600 for oneRemember that Inferno X going to have a golden Charizard card.anons...we are not gonna survive this...
>>58201205thats why I bought it now, I dont want to be the one making that post when its 600 one year from now
>>58201216you did good anon.I don't think these two cards going back.they have ascended to the Olympus above mere mortals. They will not fall down. organically growing chase cards do not fall downthis why i bought Mega Gardevoir with Klarna.. im not gonna fuck myself up this time....
>>58201213Ive been watching mass box opening videos and streams and holy fuck they are so insanely hard to pull. Its like 1 gold in every 2 or 3 cases.
>>58201224You should've waited a few monthsThey'll dip hard when english drops, and then rise later once more sets release
>>58201213>All gold>No color>Text is sometimes black, mostly inconsistent with how its applied.>Energy symbols arent gold.>Unique art is a plus - but its all yellow piss filter.>Its 5banI dont see the over all appeal of these if im being honest. Crown Zenith did gold cards better. SIR level art just with gold theme.
>>58201224I'm glad I have a pretty selective taste, none of the new cards in the new set look that special to me, for once. Saving at least some moneh
>still posting shoe
>>58201452>You should've waited a few months>They'll dip hard when english dropsi don't think this gardevoir will drop lower than $100...I bought it for 230. I don't mind if it will drop to $150 for example.I'm pretty sure it's a ticking bomb of a card...Just look at it. It's a top tier artwork like Giratina or Lugia.it's so beautiful it heals my soul every time i look at the picture of it (I got PSA 10 just to be sure i own a top tier version. i wouldn't buy an expensive card just to keep it loose in toploader)
Captain Pikachu Masterball version
I really like these cards
>>58201911I really like that lugia but it's too expensive.
>>58201922japanese version is a lot more affordable
>>58201911I bought Umbreon at just the right time when completing my Neo Discovery set. Expensive but not stupidly out of reach.
>another pokémon center drop>waiting forever in queue>everything sold out once I'm inFuck you
>>58201468The appeal is that it's gold and rare. That's if
Sams Club drop tonight, do they have any limits? Don't want to waste my time trying to buy something if bots buy out the whole lot in 14 seconds.
>>58202128What's dropping
So pull rates on BW booster bundles seem to be one art rare, one or two exs and one or two pokeball foils?Fuck me I never realized from buying single packs but ripping is a genuine fucking waste isn't it?
>>58202129See>>58193494
>>58202140Damn hope I can snag one before all the faggot bots do
>>58202154Good luck bro
>>58202112>everything sold out once I'm inPfft of course. You think we were gonna let peasants like YOU get access to OUR Sealed Product?Poor customer... Fortunately we have just the solution. Stop by Ebay for the latest Sealed Product, guaranteed availability and fast delivery... for a price ;)And there is nothing, Nothing, NOTHING you can do about it. We can and will do this forever and ever!!! Aahahahaha. AHAHAHAHAA!!! IT'S INFINITY MONEY FOREVER!!! FOREVER!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>58202154See >>58202157
>>58202157That reminds me, when does the mega set come out? I buy all the new shit if I can, but insta flip that shit to buy low pop vintage.
>>58202157I'd rather eat the rotten asshole of a road killed skunk and down it with beer before ever buying from scalpers
Don't you need to pay for a membership to even shop at Sam's club?
>>58202173Don't you need to pay a premium to buy cards on eBay and Facebook Marketplace?
That post was so retarded I'm not gonna even give it a (You).
>>58202173Yes, in store at least so I assume online as well.
>>58202188 (Me)
eBay schizo we're not buying your overpriced merch. Eat a dick.
>>58202206I'm buying his stuff and the filing a claim that he didn't send me the cards hahaha I'll have his cards for free!!!
>>58202221Hope you're using a PO box
>still posting Rare Candy
>still posting Fight Gong
>>58202408>>58202416I posted these and think it's the biggest joke making these SR
>>58202112What was it for?
>>58202421they'll probably be about as much as a gold card and out of stock everywhere
>>58202421Full art items don't take up the SR slot in Japanese boxes.
>These two slap your restock on the ass What would you do?
>>58202569Call my melanin rich friends
>>58202569I would at least be aware of being so pathetic and wear a mask instead of letting my chink face be shamed by everyone on the internet
>>58202569Just look at them. Those poor bastards can have it.
>>58202569give them a breakthey probably got like 3-5% of what they boss took off the sales of theirs scalped stuff
>>58202569Literally how?
>>58202569lol whiteys seething at asian excellence. just git gud and hustle harder lol
