Whilst tidying up the game room the otherday I stumbled across all the Nintendo Power doubles and triples I had been hoarding. They were ofcourse in poorer condition than the ones in my collection, most missing posters and having cover damage, so I listed them on facebook for $3 each and someone immediately bit. He came over the next day and bought them with no haggles (my kinda buyer). While he was over, I assumed he was a collector as NPs are an odd thing to just randomly buy up, so I invited him and his cousin to check out my collection. We got to talking about how I came across everything and started exchanging pick up stories. He told me about picking up EVO years ago from a 2nd and Charles when I mentioned I shopped there time to time. Eventually he showed me his killer Pokemon collection and said he has been getting cards graded. I told him a had a treasure box of cards somewhere and that when I found them, I'd shoot him some pics. I did that today. I don't know exactly what deems a card gradable, but I knew what I had and what I had paid for them. This guy came in, did a little digging, (I swear there wasn't anything special) and straight up offered me the EVO cart for my old cards. I was more than happy. Photo is on instagram, same user name. I don't upload pics on to my computer anymore, 1/2 laziness... All laziness..

When I saw the user name, I thought that might be you! I’ve been around since 2011, but have never been super duper active. I want to be, I really do. But even my IG game has been off.

I know you got a lot going on, handle your business!  We will still be here.  I dont really post much on IG anymore, just sneek a peek when I have some time to see what folks are selling. But forums are more fun for me anyways, discussions are better.

I'm the opposite nowadays. I used to love forums. Now I prefer social media. Not even FB really. Just Instagram.
