Also, if these were English and the kid negotiated his way into them for the slab, dad would be raving about his super entrepreneurial kiddo that turned a $1100 slab to singles worth $1700. If they do good - brilliant! Bad? They are kids not responsible for their actions.
Hot Take: If kid was told & insisted, the adult doesn’t deserve all the hate. Would I do it? No. But I also don’t pay sitters below min wage just bc they are in HS (unlike others who claim they’d never scam kids). Kids have autonomy & can decide what something is worth to them.
For anyone who waiting for the update, we've met and cancel the trade, there are some confrontation, I asked for an apology, no apology was given. Just come to take the card and went home
Btw, the card are originial in Indonesian language, and thanks for the people who defend me
@Liam95__@_bismack_ Not disputing that but it’s been stated that it was made clear to the kid and they still insisted. The point I’m making is the outrage is oop if the kid initiated & persisted. Especially when many of those mad also take advantage of kids, just in more socially acceptable ways.
@FlackAtk Same. Imo many of the kids at shows now are as impulsive as they are bc of they are being raised likely operating knowing: mom will get me another, dad will fix it, I can do it over etc
@maya_jillian75 Esp when factoring in a language barrier / accent it’s incredibly plausible that it was explained to the kid but the kid insisted (likely bc they thought they were getting the better deal) and reality hit when they showed dad and the trader was like oh well you insisted.
@_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.
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
@_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.
@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
Pre-orders for Grand Theft Auto VI will officially begin on June 25 on digital storefronts and at other select retailers.

@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
@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?
