Does anyone have any experience submitting these?

My guess is that any of the slightest rip in the perforated dividing lines on the card will automatically bring the card down into the sub-6 grade range.

And alternatively the cards getting into the 7+ grades are those that are still fully intact and firm.

The sales of raw foldees are as low as $10-20 and some of the graded sales get up into the thousands on grade 8. It's such a large discrepancy.

I had been wanting a sealed Tomb Raider 1 for a long time. Early on with ebay as a source they just weren't available. Then in more recent years I've passed on them because of high demand outbidding me.

So I settled on this Collector's edition which also includes the other two titles (II and III). I had planned on picking those up separately at some point after getting a TR1.

I'm pleased with this since it is a much cheaper alternative and has its own perks.

Both CGC and WATA seem to have each independently (and in competition) been handing out a lot of 10's. This is prevalent on brand new releases, but is also happening with some previous generation console games.

Not really complaining, but everyone should be aware that current gen graded 10 games on ebay right now are the biggest grift in the hobby. People send in case packs and are getting half 10's, at least.

Buyer beware.

Billionaires Musk, Bezos, and other investors are spending extraordinary amounts of capital into space exploration activities. Including design engineering, manufacturing, and launch.

This seems like a monumental waste of resources in the short term.

If we expect AGI within 2-3 years and eventually ASI, should we not also be expecting breakthroughs that would vastly reduce all costs involved in this activity? We'd see innovations across the board in design, manufacturing, etc.

In the meantime we are using valuable inputs such as high quality labor and scarce materials.

If we assume that space exploration is non-essential in the short term but essential in the long term, then this seems l

Disenchantable Signature legendary at a 15% odds of opening, which is in addition to the odds of normal golden legendaries, makes these packs very attractive at 500 gold for harvesting dust.

Am I wrong for pure DUST FOR GOLD are these going to beat everything else in the shop?

The conversion rate isn't great for excess coins. Also, I would expect to eventually earn these coins and max the mercs over time anyway.

If Renown is going to be used for future endgame content, I'd rather save it all until we know what that will be. Even if it will be several months away.

You can abandon the trade offers, which is what I'll do each day.

Recently it was announced that Heritage Auctions will now be accepting VGA graded games for their listings. This is going to add more liquidity to the market.

Now you have the following sites all offering VGA and WATA:

Heritage Auctions (auctions + some offered listings)

Goldin Auctions (quarterly auction) [high value items]

Certified Link (quarterly auction)

Comic Connect (quarterly? auction + offered listings)

Minus Worlds (Direct P2P Sales)

and of course eBay, other generic auction/sales sites, and Facebook groups

It is great to see the hobby expanding with more competition and available vendors.

Good luck bidding/collecting.

I've re-watched the flower shop scene dozens of times.

Please see this link for timestamps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KIkoXhgtI58

We know that it's absurd how the shopkeeper doesn't recognize Johnny. "Oh hi Johnny I didn't know it was you."

It's also been questioned why Johnny says "that's meee!" after she hands him the flowers.

Here is what actually might be happening in the scene:

You will notice Johnny subtly points to the roses as he steps up to the counter around 0:20

Johnny may be indicating that he has called ahead of time to reserve the flowers to be picked up.

"Oh hi Johnny I didn't know it was you... (who was the person that had called and reserved the flowers)."

There are a lot of warlock zoo and face hunter bots on the classic ranked ladder.

They can be spotted by their behavior of similar time between actions taken, as well as repetitive cursor hovering behavior. They will also take odd lines that otherwise don't naturally flow like human play, such as playing minions or attacking in a strange order.

I'd estimate about one of every three-four matches I play is vs a bot.

I'd like anyone else to please report this or other botting activity to [email protected] so that it can get Blizzard's attention.

What's the best way to clearly demonstrate that this (Mando finale) is the content that is wanted by fans?

Renewing Disney Plus supports Disney but doesn't send a clear enough message imo.

Is there someone at Lucasfilm to write to? Any way to spend some dispoable income on merch related to this?

What's the best way to be heard AND support Disney's bottom line which is understandably important to them too?

I'm new to Arena and I've purchased only the starter and explorer bundles. I think that's as far as I'll go with good conscience, unless it's for a prerelease.

I don't want to shell out $100 for the best rate in gems, and I also would feel bad for spending less on gems at a worse rate (than the $100). The bundles are a great value and I would love to see more of those.

I'm surprised they don't pop up in daily deals or are offered more often on the bundles page. For example- "cycling bundle" $9.99 for 2000 gems and cosmetics for drannith healer and drannith stinger.

That would seem to appeal to many people who, like me, are not whales, but appreciate a good value deal and don't mind to spe

Around late 90s or early 00s. I think this was around the time "all your base" was viral. There's a video of this weird cartoonish, maybe live action puppets, where an airplane with a face sings a song in an Asian language. I think it's japanese. It displayed the lyrics on the video but were maybe not translated and still in Japanese text. I vaguely remember it being like a sing-a-long with children singing as well.

Does anyone have any clue about this? I swear it was a viral video. It had a very catchy melody.
