My most lucky day in pokemon

First clicked on the machine and everything was sold out , so I walked around the store and came back and lone behold when I clicked on it again there was both of these bundles available and no other packs. Feeling extremely lucky as i’ve only gotten one or the other but never both at the same time! On top of getting the two most sought after bundles I once, I pulled an eeveelution SIR! I dont see me replicating this luck anytime soon🤣

PokeHunting Tonight

Heading to a fun card show tonight, mainly to vibe out and heal. Received a small gift from a loved one from beyond today and need your help on what to buy

I want to buy a card or some cards tonight to remember him by - budget is $500. My spirit Pokemon is Slaking but I love most of the main favs - looking for beautiful art and something that makes you mouth the word wow. What’s the one card that I need?

Phantasmal Flames ETB

I got this from a trusted seller. But didn't notice these two small defects, is this a big deal if by chance I decided to resell at some point? I typically rip everything but I know this might end up having good resell value at some point. Idk, what are your guys thoughts?

Also, his name is cricket and he's a good boy

Which card art goes the absolute hardest in your opinion?

I think it's the Houndoom from Aquapolis

Cleaning out the attic and found these.

Cleaning the attic and found the full set from 1999 of the gold cards and poke balls. Found an extra red boxed Charizard that isn't opened at all. Anyone know the value of these?

So cool that everyone that wanted to open these didn't get any

I heard of the bb/wf drop at family dollars. I wanted to pick some up to work on my master sets of them.

Guess what, low and behold, the people that wanted to flip these for profit bought EVERY SINGLE ONE.

To anyone that was in this hobby before major idiot did in 2020, I wish you could find cards on the shelves like before

Interested in media/marketing for a TCG startup?

Hello Everyone,

My name is Omar. Over the past 6 months, I have been building a new platform for TCG collectors of all levels (new to expert). It is an intelligence platform for collectors. After months of research into what is missing in TCG apps, I believe I have found the best possible solution.

What this means for you: I am looking for someone within the TCG space who either works in or wants to work in the media and marketing side of TCG. You can apply your expertise to a startup that creates real impact in the TCG industry and grows in a rapidly expanding market.

If you're interested in joining as a Pokémon collector, let me know and I can send you more details about the startup.

The product is amazing. It just does not have the eyes that it deserves right now.

This AGS graded Korean Vaporeon isn’t even in Korean but the label says it is. What can I do?

Was a bit sceptic getting these slabs but for the price, they’re not a bad deal. Just concerned if this has happened to others or how I can get this remedied. This is exactly the sort of mistake an AI would make also.

Looking for a card to match these

I like to group my cards by fours, and I have these three with no clue what to do for the last one. To me, they look akin to stained glass windows, and they all have an arch (though the gardevoir’s is pretty subtle). When I search that though, I only get the stained glass legendary bird card, which does not fit the theme or aesthetic.

Anyone have any ideas for the final card?

This is out of my norm while I grew up watching and loving dbz I collect and trade Pokemon! Long story short I opened a single pack for fun at a convention and I guess hit a big chase card the market is insane even for the raw card what should I do should I hold on to it see where the market goes? Should I try and get graded ? (I have no idea what they look for in dbz ) or should I maybe sell as is now

Card Org and Storage

Middle aged Dad here. After 30 years away I'm head first into the hobby again. I'm interested in Organization and storage solutions others have established. I'm not a set guy, but player and teams. Full disclaimer, my 10 yr old son is also a large driver for this so we have 200-350 cards a week coming in at times. I've used the 3-5 row boxes, but really prefer (code for my wife) to not have floor to ceiling stacks, rather drawers or shelves.

I appreciate any ideas.
