No shame in it if I could have been a college student "lifer" I'd still be there... I started helping my sons start collecting 3 years ago and now not only am I obsessed but the student has surpassed her teachers... Lmao, this is embarrassing but really funny, 2 months ago with my 18 year old we ran into a card show and when I caught a glimpse of holo base set Charizards on display I got so excited I didn't even realize I actually pushed my son aside to get to them... But hey if you can't laugh at yourself who can you laugh at:)
haha yeah tried getting my mom into it but I think she is too old to understand any of it now tried to teach her how to play the tcg and she did not get a single thing
It took me a year to really get all of it... In the beginning I sold shinys before realizing what they were, but I'm super close to my boys so I take serious interest in their hobbies and when I realized that I could offset the cost of collecting by doing this I learned everything I could about them because those sold shinys still sting...lol. And I think the art blows Magic and Yugioh away so they have found me staring at their books of cards...lol
Yeah I lost my dad 2 1/2 years ago I do not have kids but I really want kids and yeah everything happens for a reason even though we may not know what that reason is not until we die and ask God himself but even then one may not even want to
Please don't post negative comments about another bidder on my auctions... If you took one second to look at my page prior to making such a rude and unnecessary comment you would have seen I actually have a good and lengthy history with that user and I personally don't appreciate you trying to use my auction to disrespect someone based on your agenda... If I have an issue with another user I will blast them on my auctions myself, I suggest you do the same...
Lol, studies show cussing is actually a sign of intelligence believe it or not... And that's not just something I heard, there are studies... Besides sometimes "stupid meanie head" doesn't quite express the point I wish to make;)
Sounds like your a batter parent then my parents don't get me wrong they are amazing parents but they did not care to get into my interests but did not downgrade them in anyway and they supported my interests my mom does everything she can for me and I appreciate it very much everyone parents differently when I have kids I would prob try to get into their interests
To cut your parents slack we lost their dad at 4 and 9 so from that time I changed my focus so everything revolves around them as they deserved and needed it... I lucked out because we're now not just incredibly close but I was able to find this incredible balance of both being mom and great friends... I figured your kids are only young for so long and I'm squeezing every minute... I highly doubt that we all would have this relationship if they still had their dad so I like to focus on that... It's all about si Ver linings...lol
Lol, well I'm interested for the end of auction... It's so rare for an auction to exceed my expectations with so many days left instead of bidding really picking up on the last day that it's one of the few auctions that I have no idea what will happen at all, which makes it an exciting auction for me:). Thanks everyone for giving me such an exciting auction!!!
I started it first as a bonding tool with my youngest he taught me enough that I realized that I could flip their extras to get cards they didn't have... They got so serious about collecting that in the past two and a half years that they both have pretty valuable collections and the duplicates have paid for their Christamas' and birthdays... Pokemon cards has by far made the most creative, fun and personally profitable use of my business degree...lol. When, what and how many listings I have is more methodical than I would ever care to admit...
yeah it would be and might as well block me because I am a Shady Person because I am subscribed to ShadyPenguinn on YouTube and he calls his subscribers Shady People ROFL
Hey certain shady people are great, but befriending me to get discounts and then turning around the day the card gets delivered and selling it for gin only at 3x what I charged will get one banned...lol.
Im sure I am just saying I am shocked that he bid so high haha this card is so good in competitive stand point everyone is gonna want to get their hands on this lol because almost no one is going to trade it haha
He's like me, take no prisoners...lol. I can imagine no one trading, but since my sons collect and don't play it frees up more extras for me to flip...
Yeah I know I am a seller too I just got back into Listia so I am still remembering things from a couple years ago I am just left thinking how much he bid even though I will likely not get the answer lol
