@_bismack_ @ASPDPerspective Likely bc a large part of the thrill behind gambling is that you can get something you otherwise would not in a moment’s time just by taking a meaningful risk. But for them it’s meaningless so it’s odd to encourage others to gamble w you when you don’t lose like they do.

@_bismack_ also a reminder that folks can see what discords you’re a member of

Today we're launching Claude for Teachers -- premium @claudeai and Cowork, free for every US teacher.

Teachers have been experimenting with AI for a while. But they told us they wanted something curriculum-aligned, evidence-based, and able to work in the background while they focus on their students.

Four things that I think make this special:

@FCaltabellotta @Catscollecttcg That’s a nonsensical thing to do though - if you’re trying to protect it, double box. There isn’t a reason to ever alter the original case especially when you know that’s how most verify

[Ayce @askayce]

@_bismack_ People taking rounding up to a new extreme. Oh last sold is $56 let me round up to the nearest hundred😂

[Ayce @askayce]

@_bismack_ this is such a silly hill for them to die on, the entire thing makes no sense. additionally their justification for asking for PuA is that it was priced under market and it's like if that's a red flag to you, your response is to wave an even bigger red flag?

@jai_deshpande @cptdankkk It really isn’t the same though these kids are being seen and developed on the circuits almost exclusively. If you’re poor and someone doesn’t scoop you in middle school it’s cooked. Bc if you don’t have the money to join and someone else isn’t willing to pay you won’t be seen.

[Ayce @askayce]

@SeymourRaxx @cptdankkk Sure genetics can be a factor as you’re likely to have height / build but if your parent(s) played professionally they most likely have the resources for private coaching / trainers & year round travel ball so it all come backs to money making it more likely you go pro

@Kramaramb @Chaelor Contextually you’re inferring that more gems is validation of your theory because the new facility would cut / print cleaner cards. It does not matter how it’s worded. We should be excited to see everyone taking it this way bc that means reading comprehension isn’t cooked

[Ayce @askayce]

@AbbeyRips_Hits It’s an epidemic and an odd choice to me. Bc even if you didn’t believe I was in the hobby, the partner or children you’re assuming I’m there for would be. And… you don’t think I wouldn’t stop them from buying from someone who was rude or dismissive to me?

[Ayce @askayce]

@Kramaramb @SakurasCardShop I know we are talking us buyers but demand in Korea is at all time highs, lines wrapped around stores very frequently

[Ayce @askayce]

@_bismack_ Two months ago had that problem too. Have shipped out 400 orders in cardsavers the last month no issue. If it’s a top loaded card I just do the $1.32. Also no longer use cardboard mailers at all because was still getting back $1.32 stamped single top loaded cards back on them

[Ayce @askayce]

@Catscollecttcg The consumer protection laws only dictate that it can’t be total chance + “hits” value is somewhat relative to the premium they are selling the entire product for. So it’s not impossible they replace guaranteed SAR with something else and still be compliant.

[Ayce @askayce]

@collectdotrip I’m actually convinced that they have a side deal with proxy providers and that’s the only reason they keep up the queue facade.

[Ayce @askayce]

@realEstateTrent Everyone is talking about cards but really eBay is the play for all things nostalgia. Ex this past xmas bc of the Ralph Lauren xmas trend everyone’s old decor and incadescent lights were being bid to high heaven

[Ayce @askayce]

@Kramaramb Many of them are paid by shops, streamers and/or buy groups at this point. They guarantee some sort of base pay and then pay them a little more per product. They aren’t left holding the bag so they are always free to loiter whereever.
