I sent my playtest cards back to CGC today. I don’t really think i could have gained any major benefits by waiting since as an European my legal options are quite limited even if i would face any issues, so i rather just had it out of the way. This was a sad experience and it has already shaped how i approach collecting in future, i hope i can at some point leave all this in past. There are more major things in my life and i’m grateful for all the good things but nevertheless this is still gnawing me a lot. It was an incredible few months thinking i own something unique and historical and i appreciate everyone joining my happiness. I’ve edited my original post about this but i’ll otherwise leave it up as it was

Wishing you all the best with return process, this CGC playtest scandal hasn’t been easy to follow even for people who haven’t spent single penny for them.
Luckily there’s always other things to do, potentially new Grimer/Muk cards on the horizon once that new Team Rocket set arrives and hunt for Cosmos foil Fossil Muk keeps you surely busy just like before.

This threads are the reason I’m so happy to be in this forum! I love your collection an dedication.
If you know any artist in your area you could ask to customize the cover of your binder with a Grimer/Muk artwork
Soon I’ll create a showcase for my Porygon collection.

I was super stoked for you when you shared the info and equally if not more disappointed when the whole thing was exposed. I have followed your collection journey through this thread and interactions with you and I know how passionate you are about collecting slime.
I really hope for you and everyone involved the best possible outcome, I truly do. I am glad that you are also looking forward while focusing on the good rather than the unpleasant. It is a great attitude to have.
Cheers!

@Taigataipan thank you, yes it’s luckily true that in collection goal like this there will always be something to chase so this doesn’t affect that, hopefully the return goes smoothly and eventually refunds are handed too
@Kratosso thank you! It keeps delighting me whenever my collection inspires someone else, looking forward to you sharing your species collection! I do have some custom art made but i prefer my binders to have uniform looks, i have plans to at some point contact a local artist for another art piece tho!
@mrbubbles thank you for kind words, one of my favourite things in E4 has been your kindness towards other collectors so i know you really mean those words and i deeply appreciate them. Even if this is a speed bump now i’m sure i’ll have numerous good moments regarding collecting in future

Man that’s a sad picture. Gutted for you.
Painful to see the Hahbee 
evolve in such a way that has led even one of its founders to be part of something this shitty
