>>59374680source on the trap doujins pretty please. especially bottom one.
I don't know, man, I just kind of don't like binders. I'd rather have a card briefcase like Kaiba and spread them out whenever I feel like it.
>>59374680disgusting
>>59374721I miss the patterns of these secret rare full arts cards.You know, also the hearts effect on Misty's Favor. If you have these cards you know what I'm talking about. Waifu cards looks so cheap now.
>>59375412
>>59375412Yeah, most trainer SR cards nowadays have a standard texture compared to the unique per trainer like in the S/M era.
man I thought these first partner series 2 box starters would be cheaper but johto trio being sold for 120..
>>59375545pics?
>>59375500Based
>>59375778a pokemon has no right being that sexy...
>>59372755I can’t be fucked to dig it out of my moving boxes for a better picture right now but is it worth the anxiety of sending this in for grading? It’s my prized possession from my childhood, even if I could afford another one it wouldn’t be the same
>>59375912NO, cards like these are what graders scum people on. greed is at a all time high and graders are not trustworthy if it isn't done in front of you. I stopped grading after the psa issues with 9s becoming 10s after selling to them.
>>59374905LOLLMAO EVEN
>>59375912>gradingyou fucking nigger.grading is one of the biggest scams around pokemon TCG.
>>59375974>>59376016Oh that’s gay, I was more interested in having it encased for maximum safety but what deterred me was finding out I have to send him to fucking Europe and backlogged for months all for over a hundred dollars. Do in-person grading options even exist?
>>59376029Just get a magnet case, bro. Grading is legitimately cringe. It has always been a scam, but now the companies aren't even trying to hide it
>>59376085>Grading is legitimately cringe. It has always been a scamExplain.
Bought a CGC 10 card with pretty bad print lines. Definitely shouldn't be a 10. If I send to the PSA Vault and resell through eBay, is there any way for the next buyer to contact me or try and return?
>>59376129>Bought a CGClolLMAO
>>59376161it was 40% the price compared to a PSA 10. I see why now
at least two or three people right now actively have lawsuits with PSA for stealing their cards and some of these were worth over $10,000 and PSA was offering them less than what the cards were actually worth after losing them and we all know they really did not lose them. in order for some of the people to get the money after PSA lost their very expensive cards they were told they have to sign an NDA.
>>59376178PSA has over a 10 million card backlog and the MINIMUM grade cost was $25. They're not stealing random cards you faggot when they make way more money running a legit business. Accidents happen when you deal with that much volume.
>>59376201>bootlickerLMAO
>>59376201found the psa wagie
>>59376205LOW IQOWIQ
>>59376122You're paying an extortionate amount to put your card in a piece of plastic. What's worse is that nowadays, people put a guard around their slabs AND put in a UV protected case. It's gotten ridiculous. And just look up the numerous scandals that have been surrounding PSA lately. My biggest gripe with grading is, that people will look at beautiful cards and deem the trash, just because it didn't get a 10.I'll take a binder filled with light/moderately played cards any day, as long as there is passion behind that binder
>>59376226My binder is filled with creased and crumpled cards because I am a cheapskate
>>59376361Based
>>59376361Prove it.
>>59375500Is the ebay thing printed on the slab? That's gay
>>59376480might be a sleeve they put them in which i hear scratches the shit out of the slabs lmao
>>59376480no>>59376493incorrect
>>59376498>incorrectthen how come ive seen some slabs with vertical scratches on them once taking out of the sleeves?
>>59376201Goddamn, didn't know we had PSA glowniggers browsing these threads
>>59376505guess I got lucky>>59376507thats Logan Paul, he got injured and has time off from the WWE.
>>59375912>>59376029>Do in-person grading options even exist?No but I believe it’s only a matter of time, especially and specifically with the ai grading company, I don’t remember what it was called.
>>59375412>Waifu cards looks so cheap now.retard they actually have depth now instead of the floating in space bullshit.
>oh hey a card shop i wonder if they have any product>ETBs, packs, and booster boxes, and tins for 2 times or 4 times the MRSP>go to gamestop>50 fucking dollars for a booster bundlewhen will the madness fucking end
>>59376646cool, astigmatism in cardboard form
>>59376655a card shop near me here on Long Island that only opened up a year ago recently opened a second location in upstate New York. so my point is unfortunately it’s not slowing down; the madness is spreading.

reminds me of those chip shape listings
Got rid of my Zard today. It was nice but I'm trying to get every waifu SAR and this Jacinthe is great for the price.
>>59376873>every waifuOk newfag
>>59376791just throw it in the trash bin, dude.
>>59376873>I'm trying to get every waifu SARI hate this fucking mindset. The trainers used to be a means to show off the Pokemon but now the series has become pure waifufaggotry by people that cant empathize with anything that isnt human (sign of low IQ).
>>59376646Nigga, years ago even cheap waifu cards had a cool pattern.
>>59376871
>>59376873>gives fake charizard for fake brownoid cardseems like a fair deal to me.
>>59376901We do not care.>>59376909Yea I'll take having an actual background over floating in a random void.
>>59376655Gamestop is fucking nuts selling the Clefairy tin for 50 fucking dollars
>>59376916these "cards" are all trash and look worse than a graded sheet of pokemon toilet paper.
Don't reply to me faggot. Go slurp up your bubble mew garbage like the cattle you are.
Thinking of buying 2 (two) jp booster boxes because I want 1 (one) card and I'd rather pull it than buy it for <$10
>>59376924is the clefairy tin any good? i found one of them for MSRP and just passed on it.
>>59376873>great for the pricebruh thats a 5 dollar card
>>59376976kek
sybau
>>59377030>2000yen
>>59377042now import it and tell me how much you spend on it retard.
>>59376916ew wtf is that overpriced garbage? I swear that cards are getting smaller and smaller.
>>593770815 cards and 2 psa slab btw.
>>59376916Mina SM7b has no real background, tho.It's a 2018 card with the kind of pattern that I was talking about.And of course, the holy grail of waifu cards.SM-P 397 is more valuable, but I prefer this artwork.
>>59377042>>59377096name of the site please saar?
>>59377126whats with all the wierd fingerprint shit all over this fake card?
>>59377126>And of course, the holy grail of waifu cards.Nothing special. Battle day Acerola mogs it.

>>59373798who is this semen demon?
>>593769482 chaos rising 2 perfect order if you're in the us
Sold cards for the first time today. Feels nice to finally do something with all the cardboard just lying around.
>>59377234....Sell?
>>59377227Assuming you are talking about the babe and not the chopped one. Sadly she hasn't posted in months.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-MWdKr7XB8HgYlV3hA9EYg
>>59377241How else do you think you're buying?
>>59376916>We do not care.Based on the replies, it seems like we do.
>>59377234give it a year
>>59376924>ask gamestol how much is for the booster bundle>60 for chaos rising, 50 for perfect order (basically double the msrp)>ask about the clefairy tins (which have even less packs)>$40>didn't even ask about the mega zygarde set because I already know its gonna be double or triple its mrsp pricethere needs to be a coordinated hard crash for this ita fucking ridiculous that places are getting away with this shit
>>59377234I struggle selling cards but what I bought a year ago is different from what I value today. I basically force myself to sell and live with the consequences.
>>59377131Doorzo. Better conversion rate and coupons claiming, but worse search engine than Buyee and they don't have the 500yen pray and ship options.
>>59377234fucking zoomie scalper

Poki mans
>>59377500Card is shaped like a half-pipe. You could skateboard on that thing.
>>59377500>>59377505humidity is the silent killer of pokemon cards...
>>59376655Stores here selling collector box 2's for 50 euros which is close to 60 dollars. So stupid, not paying that
Radiant cards are severely undervalued
>>59377551why
>>59377551Hopefully somebody pump it high enough to make it worth digging through the bulks for it
I can't remember the last time I've seen cards in a Target or Walmart. we are never ever going to be able to walk into a store at 9 pm and see shit on the shelves ever again. I've pulled chases in shit I bought at LGS location, but its getting to a point where I just get angry when I look at them. I don't even know why I still have cards. I hate this hobby and every single person associated with it.
>>59377611all you do is bitch and moan
>>59377631not an argument. and that card is gay
>toploader binders are ba-
>>59377796Thank god its gooks cards. The most expensive bent card there is the Dragonite V that is only worth $90.
>>59377796sed
>>59377796Holy holy. This makes glad I copped a toploader binder
>>59377919makes me*
>>59377796>posting goresick fuck
>>59377796Its just gook cards so who cares. Probably worth more bent like that.
Fuck yeah, just won this mfer for $100! It's in really good condition too.
Why would the Japanese use a heart holo pattern to depict loli feet?
>>59377546The price seemed normal. You get the packs for 7 euros or something. It's really fucked up to find the MSRP though since any shop can do whatever they want
Do you guys know of any site that shows cards with their special effect/holo/texture and such?Like https://poke-holo.simey.me/ but for more than just sword and shield cardsThat would be really useful. Please.
>>59377796are bent cards their own category of PSA10?
>>59377796are bent cards their own category of PSA10?>>59377611i think we should get the pokepolice involved because organized crime is just using the tcg as a money laundering scheme. >all the investorbros are some kind of tatted up MS13 looking spic
Are you retarded, why would that happen to your binder unless you do it on purpose
Garbage cards for a garbage thread
>>59377796>intentionally bends the fake cards
Bending fake gook/chink cards is a legit strat. The post would have been ignored otherwise but look at all the (You)s he farmed.
>>59378348What was the story of the Phione and Trubbish, I wonder??
>>59378348so based
>>59375545...watched 2 guys have a fist fight yesterday in walmart over who got to buy the 5 boxes that were put out.>mfw the winner bought them and together they bought up everything and left before the cops could arriveEntire hobby has fallen into such a level of kikery I'm expecting to be called antisemitic for not spending $65 for a $15 box of cards
I will never boughted'ed pokemon cards ever again
>>59377611I don't even think it'd be as bad as it is if it was just confined to pokemon cards but the scalpers learned every One Piece set has a couple cards worth hundreds to thousands and now OP, MTG, locana digimon and even the sports cards are being grabbed up as well.The last tcg standing is pretty much yugioh and if Logan Paul has his way they'll be the next big target.
>>59378604
>>59378616Obviously AI, that much product in 1 location they'd be ripping each other apart
Genuinely bros, wtf happened to this hobby? Card collecting, Pokémon in particular, has always been giga cringe. No way Logan Paul alone was the catalyst for this. He's a scumbag and everyone knows it. This shit started pumping back in the GO days. I went to my first cardshow last month and it was pretty packed with normies and cute girls (I live in Scandinavia)
>>59378664While the normies are boring as fuck and only here to make a quick buck, you'll still met a lot of people who are into the hobby and have been for many years. Went to a card show a few months ago and was mostly chatting with the vendors while looking at their cards.
>>59378664There's steps that could be taken by every party involved but almost none of it is being donePokemon Company>slow down on amount of sets released every year>pump up the amount being produced>cut down on the amount of speciality products every month and focus on singles, 6 packs, etbs, and maybe tins>up the pull rates to obscene amounts for at least a couple of sets to the point where the rarest card is worth $50 or lessVarious vendors and companies>fired and blacklisted for backdooring or giving people a heads up when they're restocking>forced to restock after said stores closeBig retail chains>hard limit of 2 tcg products period, anything else flags the system>stores enforce the limit and trespass anyone trying to game the system by showing their asses or whine to management>worst cases put all cards in a glass case or at service deskGamestop and many card shops>pokemon company, possibly even the government comes down on them to enforce first release of new product is all MSRP, nothing should be 4x to 6x msrp from companies directly getting their product to saleUnfortunately I think what's gonna end up happening is violence is gonna escalate to the point many stores end up pulling the tcg cards from stores period.It already happened once before when walmart got tired of the Evolving Skies drama and this is much worse.
>>59378710It's funny how Japan just gets booster boxes but the world gets all these different products
>>59378041Psa 6 at best
>>59378664Normies who didn't even know any pokemon past gen3 and used to mock nerd collectors for buying pokeymans cardboard, now are the biggest fans becuase reddit and youtube told them to.Mexicans and niggers found a way to make a quick buck stealing cardboard from childrenCryptobros treat TCG as the new bitcoin because they are untraceable $1000 bills that you can easily carry around and you don't even need to declare.
>>59378721Japanese product is and always have been the most kino option. Better box artwork, better pullrates, better quality and better prices
>>59378803based
>>59378803Only based if you can read and understand JapaneseIf you don't know the JP names of all pokemon then also unbased
>>59378819Oh yeah?Name every pokemon in Japanese.
>>59378825I don't collect JP so I don't need to, you need to
Went to a show today and bought an expensive card in bad condition.Thinking about going back tomorrow. Vendor there had a beautiful copy of Flareon gold star for $2300 which is nearly exactly what one of my evolving skies boxes is worth. Might take one and sell it then buy the Flareon.
>>59377301I managed to find the Zygarde box for $50 at Target but the next day I went to Gamestop mine had it for $80If you don't find Pokemon at MSRP (Target/Walmart/Meijer) just don't buy anywhere else you're getting scammedThat's what pisses me off the most. The supply is actually there it's just they're upcharging you 100% of the MSRP
>>59378997>Falling for the Fukuda furfag baitCringe
got my first slab today for $400. weird that it was only $30 more than a raw one
Picked up some new cards sorry for the shit picture I suck at taking them
Also got these 2 slabs
>>59379077>"and" covering Misty bellybuttonTPCi should be sued
>>59379005Absolutely nobody should even be humoring fucking gamestop with this shit but unfortunately there's to many people with more money than good sense that'll drop $200 on less than $50 worth of product and smugly look down on you as they do it.Same with the whatnot rip an shippers>you're paying way above msrp to watch spiritually jewish fartniggers open oftentimes weighed/resealed packs for you>because they need a constant stream of packs they're keeping the scalpers employed>mfw know a coworker who blew an entire paycheck on the shit took out a loan to get him through to the next paycheck and instead spent half of it rip&shitters again
>>59379005Ask them if they sell it for less if you open it up right there
>>59378723This Umbreon has a lower overall pop than a 1st edition shadowless Charizard and good fucking luck finding one in better condition (I've tried), plus its a Japanese exclusive. Also, I dont care about PSA g(r)ayding.

>>59379828Sellers are gangstalking you. Get out now before it gets worse.
>>59379868This is what scares me when selling on eBay. People can see all my items for sale and buy 1 thing and have my address.
>>59372755Celebrations cards are still super cheap
>>59379143nobody should be humoring any of these faggots this needs to be put on blast. There's no reason a modern in print booster box is being sold at 200-300 fucking dollars, ETBs going for $80+, booster bundles and tins going for almost 50-60 a fucking pop. A card shop I popped by told me they were gonna close shop no fucking wonder. Nobody is buying anything you're charging people 2x to 4x retail price for modern shit
>>59380127>this nigga uses their REAL ADDRESS on ebayits so over investorbros.
Yes, I think I will be buying more JP Crown Zenith PSA 10s while they are cheap as fuck

>Perrin SIR went from less than $90 to over $150What bullshit happened this time?
>>59381109SIRs cost money my guy. Wait until most people see that those $5 Hyper Rares are actually rare.
>>59381119I guess I should get the Carmine SIR when I have the chance.
>>59381143>>59381109People should really be picking up those Lillies determination and Rosas Encouragement SIRs. They are massively underpriced right now. Probably Hildas and Dawns cards too.
>>59381153Canari as well. It's been stable at $50 for a while.
How are those card investments doing pokebros? Up bigly?
>>59381234>many fake cards off a normal office printer.jpg
>>59372755I opened a shit load of Japanese Neo Genesis (a.k.a. Gold, Silver, to a New World...) when I was in school and the packs were cheap. It all got sleeved immediately after I opened it and stored safely. Would it be worthwhile getting some of the stuff graded or is PSA a scam? I was think Lugia might be worth it at least. I also have a couple copies of Misty's Tears with the boobs and all that.
>>59381545Sorry friends, I didn't read the thread before I posted. Please ignore this post. I ain't getting shit graded as PSA does seem pretty scammy.

>>59380369Prime cards still looks like absolute trash, bro
>>59381558Even if you wanted to you'd go in debit trying to get them to bump up your cards number in the queue to be graded or wait 6 months to a year or more waiting to get said cards back.Even if everything goes right and your cards don't go missing, don't get damaged, or get a random low grade you're still stuck waiting in purgatory wait time hell as everyone and their brother decided everything and their duck pics must get graded by PSA.>some of the most sought after cards have 1000s sometime 10s of thousands in grade 10 and multiple more in 9 and 8
>>59381109Non trainer fags treat it as the morally safe trainer card to collect because muh connecting art. Meanwhile Carmine absolutely mogs it from an art standpoint.
>>59382079This bitch is a seviper trainer. Absolute waste of a trianer design. She literally looks like an anthropomorphic seviper girl.
Remember when I said I wouldn't boughteded anymore? I just boughteded.....
I just found a white dot in the bottom left of a card stored in a perfect size sleeve and top loader. How is this sorcery even possible?!

I have recently pulled some chase cards and I want to display them. Are magnetic one touch or zion cases fine?
Thinking of making a choco waifus page. The problem is some are just tan.
>>59382365If that's your problem you're nothing but a fag. Choco waifus are choco even if it's only after a quick tanDesu i'm not sure there are enough choco waifus to fill a page. Iris, nessa, saitou, the girl that was with the cop. Who else?
