    If you could only keep one card...

    For me, it would have to be my Bubble Mew promo (from the Japanese CD with 10 promo cards). Many, many years ago when I was a kid, my grandparents started going to Florida for two months every winter. The first winter they did, I remember talking to my grandfather on the phone. He said that he...

    Prices for some older things...

    Thanks. :) In the meantime, I won't reject any other values someone might know. :lol:

    Vending Series 3 Complete Set Peeled vs Unpeeled Value

    Maybe, until you factor in the additional cost of shipping dozens of individual items versus a single set of 18 sheets. But, hey, if you want to peel them, be my guest! Makes the value of my unpeeled ones increase. :biggrin:

    Vending Series 3 Complete Set Peeled vs Unpeeled Value

    Logically, a complete unpeeled set would be worth more. While you can buy a complete unpeeled set and peel it, you can't buy a peeled set and unpeel it. That's of course assuming that the set would be sold as a complete set and not individual cards. Certain cards might fetch a little more...

    Fake 1st Edition Charizard Alert

    You can see that the Charizard is not shadowless. The OP saw a non-shadowless Charizard and a first edition symbol and knew it had to be fake. If the Charizard had been in English, the OP would have been correct. Non-English base sets did not have shadowless versions, so their 1st editions...

    Prices for some older things...

    Wondering about current prices/values for the following: - Base Set Blastoise Error (No "Stage") - Dark Dragonite Error (5/82 Non-Holo) - Sealed Japanese Happy Birthday Pikachu (original, not Natta Wake) - Sealed Japanese Bulbusaur/Squirtle Intro Set w/ VHS - Unsealed Red Deck from Japanese...

    Know what needs to come back for Generation VI? Box Toppers.

    If I opened a box to find a boxtopper Bellsprout, I would probably just throw the entire box away. :nonono:

    What card would you like back?

    One of my earliest pulls from a booster was a base Blastoise. I thought it was awesome... but even more awesome was the Mewtwo of the kid down the street. He convinced me that it was rarer than the Blastoise. So, we traded, and I was the happiest kid in the world... until I realized you could...

    what do you value these 2 binder pages at? (pics)

    Good condition? Erm... take a look at that Chansey's right edge.

    Mock Packs

    Right? The nostalgia factor here is off the charts... New WOTC things, haha!

    Mock Packs

    Whoa. That Jungle pack has got to be the coolest thing I think I have ever seen on here. How in the world would you even go assigning a value to something like that? I would *kill* for it. Just out of curiosity, would you mind sharing how much you did pay for it?

    Getting scammed.

    So says the guy who did a $1500 transaction without insisting on tracking. :lol: Again, you're missing the point. I don't need to see the photos. Looking at the photos won't prove anything. Photos can be altered. Photos can be altered so well that you can't tell they were altered. You cannot...

    Getting scammed.

    Look, I'm sorry, but if someone wanted to, they could easily fake that, whether that meant altering the physical one and then taking a picture of it, or digitally manipulating the picture. Unless you have the physical receipt in-hand and can inspect it to confirm that it is legitimate, then...

    Getting scammed.

    Wait, what? I would have hoped that this was obvious and didn't need to be said, but if you have a problem with a trader and think there is a possibility you were scammed, you probably shouldn't deal them with them again. Fool me once...
  15. Pkmnrulz240

    Getting scammed.

    That's naive. It's not impossible to digitally manipulate an object in a picture just because it's in someone's hand... Here's hoping he didn't, and your packages show up a little late. :frown: But seriously, that high of a value and you did no tracking? You know what they say about a fool...
