There isn’t a general “what’s on your mind” thread. That would go over well

This is a Masaki Machamp right? Seller has zero feedback so obviously sketchy but did they change the label title at some point?

Very likely, Masaki is simply Bill in Japanese, you mailed any Machoke (or other stage 1 trade evo 'mon) & Bill’s PC (vending card) in, and they ‘evolved’ (mirroring the games). So calling them vending mail-in is perfectly reasonable. (here the category in the pop report: [https://www.psacard.com/pop/non-sport-cards/1998/p-m-vending-promo/42778](https://www.psacard.com/pop/non-sport-cards/1998/p-m-vending-promo/42778))

I wonder how it does not have auth. guarantee…

@thurco Immaturity. They’ll learn, or society is screwed.

Perhaps Ai is not going to nuke us, just destroy our egos.

A saying I’ve had since college. Rather appropriate to that fable:

“Cynicism is the gateway drug to bitterness and conspiracy theories. Blind to empathy, solutions, and your fellow human beings, it ties your hands, narrows your perspective, and sours the fruit of life.”

When they say plasma storm, they’re referring to the solar flare that hit the camera as the photo was being taken.

I love how many messages I get about my listings that involve someone trying to coach me on why I should raise my listing price.

Has it not occurred to these people that I might be smarter than them? Or that my 5 figure listing had a cost basis of 1k?

They really try to explain to you that you are stupid for trying to get a 20x return on investment. Feels like a top signal.

For sure that is the reason why! It’s just shocking how bold and straight up rude they can be when they do it.

Send it to Nat on IG.

James @ z and g had a mislabeled missing holo charizard on auction. I messaged James and he took it down. A few weeks later it went to auction with PSA as the seller in the PSA vault. I messaged Nat on IG and the listing was taken down and cert deactivated. Frame it as PSA will be avoiding a CRC claim.
