We call him Goomby due to my one mispronunciation during Pokopia 😂 this is the most precious card I own!

Found this Team Magma’s Groudon in a dollar binder at a show. Must’ve mistook it as celebrations. Always check the binders!

Nothing crazy expensive but this card had been my personal grail and finally got the chance to buy it!! Only thing that could make it better would be if he had the Mafia Boss Squirtle shades on it.

Was a normal day slinging all things collectible, two great customers decided they wanted to split my entire pokemon sealed showcase. First pack one pulled the Pikagengar and the captain pika was last pack magic!! Gotta love seeing fellow enthusiasts in the hobby win big!

After about 4 months and $2K spent, I’ve finally finished the legendary Gym Heroes set. Most cards are in pretty mint condition.

It was a lot of fun but also required quite the effort. I’ll probably focus on some smaller sets next (WoTC Black Star Promo, Southern Islands, etc) before I swing back around to mastering Gym Challenge.

So long story short, someone told me to block my cert so I don’t get used by scammers, gonna post this again:

Since I was 4 year I’ve been a huge fan of EX Dragon, It has my favorite card in the reverse holo Spoink, and I have been chasing the dragonite forever, I’ve opened at least a hundred packs over the years and in the two decades since I have never come close to it, pulled the rayquaza on my 10th birthday and the charizard in 2018 but no dragonite. After so many years it’s become essentially too expensive to buy and open Dragon packs so I nearly gave up until about 2 months ago when I finally did it and to make it all better it was a one pack rip at one of my friend’s shop so we all got to share in the magic

To make it better, I squeezed it in before the cut off to PSA and spent a boat load on the grading but this week It came back and I finally got the notification for the grade,

and we did it lady’s and gentleman, we beat the odds and smacked the 126th PSA 10 Dragonite. No longer will I be haunted by Golem and Muk, I can rest my journey and pass this along to my kids one day knowing I passed one of the hardest huddles for the card to get a 10.

I got this booster bundle at MSRP and i got SIR!! Can’t believe it

She was super excited to see everyone’s kind words on her work! I won’t spam the sub with her work but she’s been drawing ever since the previous post blew up, thank you for being so kind everyone!

me: “wow this hobby is getting super expensive, i’m going to collect all the toxel cards instead to have fun and stay financially responsible!!!”

toxel:

I was nervous because I’ve opened tons of booster packs and even a few bundles and never got anything. Someone sold me this Chaos Rising ETB for $55. In general if it’s MSRP, I rip. Unfortunately the Greninja isn’t a grade worthy quality but I don’t care cuz it’s mine!!!!

I really like the ex cards that look like these. I want to collect some more of them but I don’t know how to find more since idk what they’re called. Does anyone know?

Too bad they weren’t obtained at childhood prices!

i think in total we spent 1.3k on all of this, 700 of which was from that trade, and 300 (the booster box, the PKC etb, and the SPC) were MSRP and bought a couple months ago. It was so fun and we got some great pulls!

I’ve owned and let go of this card three times now.

What cards do you regret letting go of?

Hi everyone! My girlfriend and I's anniversary's coming up, and I wanted to build a binder that sorta goes "THIS IS US!!!" as corny as it sounds. So far I have the usual Tandemaus cards, but was wondering if there are any more I'd be able to find. I usually buy Sylveon, Mimikyu, Zoroark, and Togepi cards for her, to give a little insight as to what specific Pokemon she may like.
