On my card there is no holofoil around the text box at all. I tried looking at it in different lights. There are other problems like creases but I know that can be a factory issue. There is something about the card which feels odd, like it is lower quality. There were a couple of slight smudges...

I bought a shining charizard (ex dragon frontier) on ebay and I am not sure if it is genuine. My other shining cards from other sets have this thin line of holofoil around the edge of the text box but the shining charizard I bought does not. I have never had either of the shining cards from...

As we know Arceus has really good base stats and stuff and is the god pokemon. But it makes me wonder what will happen afterwards. If they bring out a 5th generation pokemon will want to keep us interested. But I don't think a new game will have as much hype as d/p if none of the next...

RE: SELLING ANIME EPISODES/MOVIES! I don't need any right now. But what region do these DVD's play on? I am assuming they play on region 1 if they are official ones. People in Europe can only play region 1 on computers and not DVD players. Less stuff is available over here in Europe, which is...

I agree. The mewtwo art is great. This is now my favourite lvl X artwork.

It is wrong for one of these so called new-comer "posers" to make other new players feel bad about themselves. However, I also think it bad when old players badmouth new-comers. Sorry, but we should be encouraging more people into the game. So I would not stop being friends with these people...

*sighs* can we stop saying that there is an age for pokemon? Quite frankly, you should be able to play pokemon at any age. Anyways... even if you decide not to continue with pokemon I would not sell all of your cards. I was a pokemon fan when it was really popular and I made a massive mistake...

The price book that was published is only for the really old sets. I have seen some cards go for a lot less than the guide prices. But some people are dumb enough to pay way too much for a card too.

I would like to see a galactic set, but at the same time I think that is a bit too predictable. I also want to see light and dark pokemon making a return sometime. I am not sure how many pokemon have not appeared in the 1st 4 DP sets but I think it is still possible they will fit all the pokemon...

I managed to get both my honchkrow and gardevoir for approx 14 US dollars. It is true that the ones in the tins are worth less. But the ones in the set are still worth about $20 because there are less of them and they have different art work. That may not mean a lot to a player but it does to a...

There is no way you will find one for $5 unless you are really lucky. $20 is most likely. There are some a few dollars less, but you should check feedback because sometimes the ones with the lowest price are too good to be true. But you should check feedback on all ebay stuff anyway.

Unless it was a VERY bad deal, I would not agree to add cards. If the other person was unsure then they should have thought about it more before they made the deal. To be honest, I would try to make a fair deal in the first place. If I found out the cards traded to me were fake I would...

I feel I have to defend the voice actors here because you will be surprised how many shows use females to voice male characters. Plus Ash's voice has got deeper recently (possibly to show he has in fact grown up a bit). But they will never get rid of Ash. No matter how much some people hate him...

Well I do not have plans to cut out cards totally next year. But I need to save up for my wedding so next year I am limiting myself to buying one single ex/*/lvl X card each month because that seems reasonable. I noticed the other day that toys r us in the UK have bumped up their booster...

I spend slightly less then you. At the moment I am supposed to be saving but I can't resist buying some cards. It depends what sets are out at the time. But I will defend my spending because I do go around looking for the best price and set a limit if I am using ebay. It is hard for me because I...
