>>58505847>>58510528left is jap right is en
>>58511446>>58511473>>58511578I will continue to buy physical english cards but I will not have them graded.
>>58510715:3
>>58510715Retarded and gay OP
>>58511578huh I would've thought otherwise, in the last pic the right one seemed to be a higher res printing, but in this one the "high res" looks like shit
Anyone here into Boomer error cards?
>>58511578UMMM JAP SISSIES??
>still buying modern
I heard people say that One Piece cards are hard to come by. Which is funny since the One Piece cards here in my country practically replaced the Pokemon cards.
>>58512404Look at the colors and the texture anon. EN print is like 8k lcd screen while JP print is 4k oled. I'll take oled over lcd any day.
>>58510715Man, they made a sissy edition?!Whenever something is focused on Sylveon, it's always Ultra Gay while Eevee and Eeveeolutions are really Gay themselves, but Slyveon always takes it to the next level, this isn't even a Fairy type thing for example Gardevoir stuff are Waifu designs and Clefable stuff are Mystical designs, but Sylveon is literally Trans Rights designs, no other Fairymon does that
>>58512765Idk it just looks cheap to me
Alright bros i left all outside pokemon communities so i will post it here:Results of two Inferno X boxes.this felt FUCKING AWESOME.i havent felt so GOOD in terms of booster openings for a couple of years i think...it's funny that i got double Dawns - i can't complain about that! Getting two MCharizard X is so cool. it's an awesome card.I will do a Inferno X master set now - i have enough of things for that.
>>58513343>no MzardX SIR0/10 absolute trash pulls, waste of money and time
>still buying vintage
>>58513491Thanks for the (you)!
these perfect fit sleeves are really nice
hehe
>>58513343>2 dawns and 2 charXPretty based anon. Much better than some youtubers that got shitty alt art and items
>pokemon vending machine near me has cards for the first time in literal MONTHS >1 prismatic evolutions booster bundle left>try to buy it>"Sorry, we are unable to process transactions at this time!"I almost smashed the vending machine open right then and thereFUCK SCALPERS FOR RUINING THIS FUCKING HOBBY
>>58515366skill issue
>>58513343I just want the Dawns.
Got sent a tariff bill from UPS after buying and importing a card on ebay. I hate the president so much it's unreal.
>>58512866I think you're mentally ill
>>58513343sh-shiny cardboard...g-gib..
>>58515366*buys the vending machine*sorry nerd next time get a REAL job
>>58515665Keep complaining and UPS will the be the least worrisome 3 letter acronym you have to deal with this week.
Got rid of the rest of my low end English trainers for this beauty and my first Yugioh ghost rare. I plan to buy them back in Japanese eventually but I'm not worried about it for now.
>>58515908>finger nails are cute>posts a good trainer card>replacing english for japaneseBased
>>58515966its a reddit repost
Post Spoopy Cards for Spooktober
>>58515978none of those are worth over $50
im the guy who pulled Gold Lucario out of a $6 blister. solid to my friend for $500. Used that to buy everything besides the Gyarados and Rayquaza. I love XY so much you wouldnt believe
>>58515978I haven't really bought anything spooky recently
I can't believe I bought cards again. I thought I was free and I come back at the worst time.
>>58517365
>>58517372
>>58515865I'm praying for WW3 to take this entire world out. People that like Trump are mouth breathing morons and I can't wait for all of it to end.
>>58516432XY full arts were unbelievably good. I wasnt into cards back then but looking at XY full art vs swsh/sv full arts is insane in terms of downgrade. I mean fair we have sirs now but seriously, cant be too much to have full arts still look cool
>>58515978
>>58515865Post your hand
>>58516432Good. Those gold cards are so ugly imo I would have done the same. It's like finding easy money in your pack.
Deadest of threadest
I don't like many V cards but kawayoo's art fits the black design so much better. Undeniably kino.
Picked these singles up today at my LGS.
>>58518969That Lugia is awesome.
pokekyun is based and pink pilled. way better than gay english variant. just picked up the Raichu
>>58518969i have lugia in another language of my country and i waited for too long to get it in englishI was just "hehe i have Lugia" and it added too much comfort and i missed an opportunity to get it for around ~200...Otherwise that Darkrai Lugia and Zekrom are fucking awesome - they all having the same vibe
>>58518969The fact that there are full arts of swsh era that are not quite full art and are not secret rares BUT can't be dismissed as 3Dslop creates so many problems to my binder management
>>58515665Short term pain for long term gain
I opened 2 of the reshiram slamance box (20packs) and got 3 regular exs. Let this be a reminder to never open english slop
>>58515665How much was it? Its a shame because the japs aren't savvy enough to bypass the taxes like the chink sellers are.
>>58521977I am ready to have my feelings hurt
>>58522028Christmas is around the corner. Time to resell at an inflated price!
>>58520939This is great for me because I can basically ignore all the big chases and instead focus on completing older sets
>>58512866>Man, they made a sissy edition?!Yall niggas crack me up fr
>>58522028Game Time ***
>>58522413Its so over
>paid $55 for Hilda SAR>paid $75 for Dawn SAR>paid $50 for Aceola SARI could have waited to buy the Dawn but If I dollar cost average then I paid $60 for each.
>>58522413LMFAO Stay tuned, I am stupid and will be opening the next box in a few hours
>>58522476sheeeeesh
>>58522442Dawn SAR is literally 4500 yen in Japan now lmao
>opening packsretard shitthe best thing to do is keep sealed.
>>58522714The best thing to do is use it to dig in your butt
>>58522706Lowest im seeing is 6000 yen which doesnt include shipping or tariffs.
>>58522714You’re right, Opening packs is stupid and usually a waste of money. But it’s fun. I only rip the cheap stuff. Some stuff is way too expensive to rip.
>you are SUPPOSED to not open the product!lmao
>>58512161I hate how people try to extract factory damage as an error and not just poor QC.Also all those hickeys can be made with chemicals, a speck of windex on there, thatll do it. Fuck vintage "errors" that whole secrion of the hobby gets completely hustled by some random dork making the same windex marks and saying "zomG look Guys a NeW rEpEaTinG error" Im so fucking over pokemon and card collectors
time to get hurt again
I pulled an Espeon!
>>58523672Love how cheap some yugioh cards are. I got a bunch of waifu cards that are less than $5 and filled 2 binders.
is TAG a scam?
>>58524234They're all a scam but atleast tag's slabs look coolgood luck selling anything that isn't a psa slab though
>>58524234If I were to ever buy a graded card to keep for my collection it would be TAG. Ive browsed some TAG listings on ebay and I have to give it to them, their card grading report and scans are the best in the industry and its not even remotely close.
that'll be $350
>>58524328imma need bout tree fiddy
>>58524328Is this water damage?
>>58524328>>58525082Nothing a little spray + compression + a week in the humidor can't fix
>>58491446Well I'll be damn... its a proper sealed box.How fucking long ago since I was able to get any product at msrp...
>>58524306Tag slabs look very cheap and ugly. PSA too, the label in particular. ARS is the only slab that looks good.
>>58525313Eh, double hit box. One of the better waifu too. I'm okay with this.
>>58522714>retard shit>the best thing to do is keep sealed.small ball investorcuck energy>>58522877>I only rip the cheap stuff.if stuff is cheap - it's probably coming from a shitty set that you don't really need to openWhat kind of logic is that..
>>58524234By looking up the QR code you can see HD scans of the card and its evaluation which is essentially graders notes.This is something other grading companys do not offer. So youre getting a very accurate grade and as close to objectivity as possible. Theres also a form of digital finger print generated based off the surface of the card. If you crack and resubmitted, theyd know.
All the usual shops barely deal in cards now. No more folders to browse through while shopping.What happened? What's killing it off?
Finished another random page from opening a paradox rift pack. I think i purposefully didn't get this one because i didn't like the card and i knew it was from paradox rift.
>>58526027Wouldn't be surprised if majority of the pack is sitting in somebody basement.Nobody is ripping anything anymore.
>>58526027Miring Marnie's Bulge
>>58515970what's the problem here? we need more women itt :3
>not buying collection boxes
>>58524234Nah theyre just a new grading company. If you ask people all companies that aren't psa is a scam. I personally have both PSA and TAG slabs and theyre both fine. I personally prefer TAG for my collection that I keep because the slabs do look clean as fuck. Even better if you buy one of those display cases because the background art looks really nice with the transparent slabs.I also have no issues selling TAG slabs either. I don't see a different between selling PSA or selling TAG as long as you price them right.
Some other weird overlap with packs i have opened recently with the cards i have from over a decade ago, of which i do not have metrics tons of, is that i managed to get like a Loudred and Whismur from the same set twice in only a few packs, and even duplicate. Which is strange because it's a pokemon that doesn't actually feature all that often for an older gen mon
>>58524234ive seen them at local card shows and the slabs are so sexy, honestly I dont get how they havent overtaken psa yet. when you lookup the cert number it shows you every single flaw on the card and if you resubmit it their algorithm catches it and gives you the same grade. only issue with tag is they are usually priced higher than the psa equivalent, which does makes sense because the cards are objectively in better condition.
I bought twelve of those 3 booster tins from Walgreens
>>58527053>they are usually priced higher than the psa equivalentYep that's my issue with them atp as well. I don't mind paying more but the problem is that they are priced way to much above PSA. The slabs look good and their detailed grading score is fantastic. But still, PSA is still the baseline for how things are priced, if people are willing to pay more for a TAG slab, by all means but there isn't that much data right now to make it consistent. Tag is also new. It's normal for people to be skeptical. I was looking for a specific card in a TAG 10 for a while now and I finally find it, I see that it's price like $200+ over the PSA 10 just because there the TAG pop isnt high and thats just annoying
Sort of halloweeny theme i put together. About a third of them were either random cards i already had, random cards i liked and bought and cards i got with the theme in mind.Couldn't find another stadium that fit the bill so i put Litwick there (also no Lunatones)
>>58527405Erm where's your pumpkin stamps?
anyone want to buy my psa 10 japanese crystal kingdra and nidoking for cheap?
>>58527851yeah sure post pics and prices.
>>58527528I'm a massive mewfag + i don't like the pumpkin stamps
>>58527851I got uhhhhhhhhh 2 dollars and some peppermint in my pocket
>>58510715>Wants to buy the Solgaleo and Lunala alt art because Lillie is cute>Cheapest version of this card is $100 to $300Man life sucks, man. At least the normal version is still very cool.
>>58528082>massive mewfag>doesn't post mew
Pulled the Latias so ended up buying the Latios
>>58526558>1 bidyeah totally not 2 people boosting the price for fun btw
>be in Japan>expect prices to be generally lower than overseas ebay>mega zard 150k yenYeah ok no, I'll just look for vending series
>>58512431I want this card so bad bros>post your recent pick ups & your favorite cardJust snagged my first out of print ETB and this nifty tag team Darkrai Umbreon promo. Spooky season is upon us! Ooyama pika is still my favorite. Snagged for 80 3 years ago... blows my mind it is $500 now. Any cards you bought that paid off big time? I want a pokemon card loving gf but will settle for meme face mouse.
>>58530656>vending seriesThey're all mine.

>>58531272>englishw
First haul in Tokyo!More to come in the next days.I saw a carddass Mewtwo in good condition for 19k yen, is it a good deal?
>>58531265Lol I fucked up. I already had the staff prerelease. There goes $60 down the drain that could've been another card. At least I can say I have 2 of the more expensive english mawile card though.
>>58534459Sell it when the price goes up
>>58531272When are they going to release Lillie's Cum?
>>58533256>japoorneseyikes
>>58533256that Alakazam one looks cool
>>58534748What do you think Lillie's Pearl is?
>>58535769cum button, not the same
My card shop wants $20 for each of the promo boxes without the promo. Good deal right?
>>58537153Yes, honestly insane people are spending $300 on 1 box when they're reprinting these again soon
>>58517381some more stuff arrived
>>58537706
>>58537713
>>58537720
>>58537720You have good taste, this Scizor is super pretty.
>>58537854Thank you, I agree it's quite stunning. I hope I can get Rocket's Scyther and Scizor.
>>58537583>>58537153I can't believe the fucking Gyarados box still evades me. Not paying more than RRP for them,s o I shouldn't complain. But fuck Hiroshima. That nuke wasn't enough
