@TravMerchant@KabutoKing_ I agree. You can get PSA vault offers too but only from partners. And when you buy off eBay you can avoid sales tax.
PSA is backed up with everything, but I’m sure they want to make their own eBay marketplace connected to their vault. Buy/Sell (trade) instantly on graded cards
@xen0da@Eb3936623397038 Yeah I try not to have it disguised as a pokemon with a giveaway ability like intimidate. Love hiding as kingambit tho with the amount of fake out and CCs that go into it. Pairs really well with Mega Froslass
@Wiltank I’m more into VGC, but in SwSh I played singles 3v3 a little. I really liked setting up rocks and then eject pack overheat torkoal into a G max Charizard or Venusaur. Was very fun lol probably my singles team that felt closest to doubles synergy. Rest of team was solid too
@SportsHurtMazza@tmtfc206 It’s a TCG first and sets will always continue to come out at this rate to keep the meta fresh. I say this as a collector. Unfortunately many players have stopped opening their own packs and simply resort to buying singles they need for decks
@Lewchube Have accounts been suspended or banned due to nicknames so far?
I learned nicknames show on release week when I led battle with ‘Bad Daddy’ the alpha Tyranitar and ‘Drilhur’ the Excadrill. Oops.. I’ve been a little more careful with nicknames since
@RosebudDrive Pretty sure it was always like this. Some abilities like defiant and competitive are not triggered by ally attacks. Other abilities like contrary and clear body are still triggered by ally attacks
@XenoVGC Why’d you choose tickle over charm? Is it more to get defensive benefits for staraptor that’s allowing you to survive hits with higher defense? Or is it more of the extra benefit for other mons, like hitting opponents with tickle before Sucker punch kingambit?
@WistfulHopes Something that this angle doesn’t check, are there noticeable scratches on the holo foil where the art is? That can be something that is overlooked at first
I see a market on the front towards the bottom, not sure if something was just sitting there or if it’s a print
@tony_sperrano@CharizardEats@Bpaint Most card prices would be higher by that logic because getting a specific SIR pulled is much lower than 1/80 packs. It would be closer to 1/1000
Like most luxuries the price is mostly decided by demand and what buyers are willing to pay. Sometimes it trends up and sometimes down
@Lyin_Insider@TheSteinLine Brunson was called for a flagrant in game 3 for this when he didn’t even reach the 3 pt arc lmao. Talk about jumping forward this is nothing in basketball, especially from deep
@AlandAlphoto Also some people overestimate the supply of these even before we consider never-selling owners like myself. 2-3k PSA pop is low for what these cards are and their recognizably. I don’t advise focusing on niche cards just for the sake of low pop, even if low pop is trendy atm
@AlandAlphoto Right. Many cases of popularity and recognition driving prices higher because of demand. And it makes sense. As someone that has “grail cards” from every era, including much lower supply cards, the Mario/Luigi Pikachus are the very last cards I’d sell. S-tier cards
