@Kled Does the Charizard have a shadow on the bottom right of its portrait?

2020-12-11 07:04:34 UTC  

I can't entirely tell from the picture, although Im no expert

2020-12-11 07:04:42 UTC  

nah no shadowless stuff

2020-12-11 07:04:43 UTC  

no crazy shit

2020-12-11 07:05:00 UTC  

still thats some solid coin if you sent them to get graded imo

2020-12-11 07:05:06 UTC  

my delta species charizard has a print roller line right through the middle, feelsbadman

2020-12-11 07:05:08 UTC  

condition looks solid

2020-12-11 07:05:26 UTC  

i did a very basic appraisal and if i sold everything at moderately played id probably fetch like 4k

2020-12-11 07:06:03 UTC  

but if i got a few graded things would get nuts, i dont think there would be any 10s in here but MAYBE a few 9s

2020-12-11 07:06:07 UTC  

I think thats a bit of a stretch, a non holo base set charizard is like $100-150 right?

2020-12-11 07:06:20 UTC  

the one i got is holo legendary collection

2020-12-11 07:06:39 UTC  

Grading is always worth it imo

2020-12-11 07:07:02 UTC  

true, i dont think id sell anything even if they were 9s or 10 except for like one or two cards

2020-12-11 07:07:06 UTC  

Its $20 a pop and with base set stuff pretty much anything at a 9-10 covers it

2020-12-11 07:07:28 UTC  

At the very least, get the Charizards sent out

2020-12-11 07:07:37 UTC  

although right now ETA is looking like 4 months return

2020-12-11 07:08:06 UTC  

i still remember when i pulled that blaines charizard i was hyphied up

2020-12-11 07:08:13 UTC  

Just for liquidity purposes, the Charizard at worst will be eaiser to move in a slab, let alone it actually going up in value too

2020-12-11 07:08:25 UTC  

true true

2020-12-11 07:08:29 UTC  

thats dope, most of my cards are ~2007

2020-12-11 07:08:44 UTC  

ive had these for like 20 years i dont plan on ever selling but i do agree about getting some graded

2020-12-11 07:08:44 UTC  

ever since pokemon cards have gotten big recently I've been playing pokemon go like a degen

2020-12-11 07:08:53 UTC  

like the shining celebi and kabutops and the charizards

2020-12-11 07:09:05 UTC  

I collect sports cards predominately, so I kinda love seeing stuff in slabs

2020-12-11 07:09:25 UTC  

and also I always worry Ill damage the condition of something by keeping it raw

2020-12-11 07:09:26 UTC  

oh, baseball? or anything

2020-12-11 07:09:48 UTC  

i just have these pokemon cards and im buying MTG cuz i play a lot of edh with my friends

2020-12-11 07:09:51 UTC  

Mostly baseball, but I slightly dabble in basketball and football to a much lesser extent

2020-12-11 07:10:06 UTC  

apparently there has been a surge in football and basketball recently

2020-12-11 07:10:12 UTC  

kind of the same time with the pokemon shit

2020-12-11 07:10:17 UTC  

some youtuber must have done something

2020-12-11 07:10:29 UTC  

cuz ik pokemon unboxings are all over twitch now

2020-12-11 07:10:37 UTC  

cant go a day without seeing someone opening up an og box

2020-12-11 07:10:45 UTC  

Football and basketball has been on the rise big time since around March once covid hit

2020-12-11 07:11:02 UTC  

although it was already on the rise for like 2019, covid just made the "markets" explode

2020-12-11 07:11:41 UTC  

For the past like 6 months it was pretty much impossible to get any brand of any sport at Target. For baseball its a bit easier currently since the products are junkier this time of year, but basketball/football is still impossible to find

2020-12-11 07:12:06 UTC  

and also pretty much any basketball product on the shelf is immediately worth x3 its purchase price, so theres lots of scalpers

2020-12-11 07:12:28 UTC  

I rip pokemon every now and then just out of wanting to rip something lol. I dont like that the only thing worth anything is pretty much Charizard

2020-12-11 07:16:42 UTC  

yeah my friend is a scalper

2020-12-11 07:16:52 UTC  

and yeah pokemon cards are pretty much like some MTG sets

2020-12-11 07:17:04 UTC  

theres the lottery card youre looking for
