That skyridge crobat deal was harsh!!! I agreed with you 100%. You were fair.

@GrimHorizonTV 6 ай бұрын

Honestly I'm completely happy with that deal. I can't tell you the last time I saw a W stamp Charmeleon in person. I don't buy online so gotta make a deal when I find something super rare. Also I was in the crystal and slab really cheap so I was comfortable making that deal to get something I needed! Would have been better straight up for sure but is what it ha

@@GrimHorizonTV When it’s all said and done, that’s what matters most. If you were happy with it then you take home a great experience obtaining the card you’ve been wanting for a bit. 🙂

@@Oz__MTG Exactly dude! Such a cool and unique piece of history too. Once I start focusing on Skyridge I will track down another Crobat but for the time being I would rather have the fire lizard!

@GrimHorizonTV 6 ай бұрын

Hope you enjoyed your first Con! They are definitely a lot of fun! I would suggest investing in an external mic setup if you don't have one like "Rode" or something similar. It captures much better audio and I can fix a lot of it in post. Makes all the difference in loud places!

honestly i feel i was taken advantage of while at KC Con. it was my 1st Con and i felt rushed and made poor decisions. maybe i need to attend more card event cause i feel i shouldve still had some leftover cards from trades. but i got want i wanted but at wat cost

@GrimHorizonTV 6 ай бұрын

Sorry to hear that! Did some vendors take advantage of you on trades? Cons are always a learning experience for sure, there are some great vendors out there that are very fair and then some shitty ones. Definitely learn from it and comp all your cards so you can access better trades on the fly. At least you got the cards you wanted though!

a fellow HP-DMG collector, I LOVE IT! Its the best way to get the super high end stuff like gold stars, crystals, etc. And they usually still look great. My take is if I can still admire the art/aesthetic of the card, Ill take it!

That Charmeleon W stamp trade was one of the worst trades/purchases I've seen you do so far, but what matters at the end of the day is that you're happy with it. Very cool card none the less and congrats on the master set!

@GrimHorizonTV 6 ай бұрын

Thanks man! I didn't make the info public but I bought the Crobat from another vendor earlier that day for $75 and had $15 grading fees on the destroyed Blastoise. I think I got that one out of a collection. Basically in my mind I was getting the Charmeleon for under $100 which I was totally cool with cause it is legit mint. Plus I never see that card in person. Been getting hate comments saying I low ball too much but vendors agree so it's mutual transactions. Kinda proves a point no one knows the money involved behind the scenes what looks like a bad deal is actually a big comeup. At least card wise. Could have sold the Crobat and just bought a 9 to crack but end of the day it was a quick easy trade and I'm happy. I know you've been around for all the deals so it definitely ranks worst by footage 😂

Thank you! The card is definitely incredibly rare and I am not sure if I have ever seen one in person for sale since I started this journey of mastering WOTC. I have not purchased a single card online for this collection so I had to jump on the opportunity! I am still thrilled I picked it up! The two cards I traded I also had under $100 into. I know the Crystal had more value but I owned it for $75 and would gladly have paid for the Charmeleon with that money so easy trade in my mind!
