Thank you!

SNES Donkey Kong Country Vinyl Display Banner with some damage

Turbo is 60 days. If you saw something that referenced 150 then it's just something they didn't clean up after the update yet.

I use CapitalOne360 (formerly ING Direct) and they're at 3.3% currently. I'd do google reviews too, there's more to a bank than just the interest rate.

Of course it's just a matter of time. Sometimes you buy a physical game and it's just a download code anyway. I've always been collect the past and play the present mentality so I don't care either way.

He frankensteined that together. I believe I had a 9.2 LTTP with a 9.8 component (Manual or cart? Can't remember) and he traded me a 9.6 for my 9.2 straight up to get the component so he could marry his other 9.6 into a 9.8. We'll both have the 2 first print Mario World 9.4 CIBs as well and one could be married up to a 9.6 in a similar fashion. I'm going to be holding out on that one though.

The CIB pop reports were exciting to finally see. I suspect when the CIB pricing comes back down (it's inevitable with CGC in the market now) and the Wata redesign cases are out, then we'll see a lot more coming in.

All I can say is thank goodness JJGames held out and didn't sell PriceCharting. That's the thing to be happy about here.

THere was a case of MM3 NP mags on ebay earlier this year, I was the under bidder. Think it was about 12 to a case and went around $300 but my memory may be off. So I'd expect 12 9.0 or higher copies coming out which is a lot for CGC NP mags because the demand outside of the first few issues drops off sharply.

I think I have a HellFire available.

Congrats indeed!

Welcome back!

Shameless self plug, but I actually have a couple of CIB Game Gear and Sealed Game Gear games ending Sunday! Haha... https://www.ebay.com/sch/jonebone7/m.html?_dkr=1&iconV2Request=true&_blrs=recall_filtering&_oac=1&rt=nc&LH_Auction=1

Forum traffic was dying significantly on NA before it perished and it just will continue to happen in general. Social media is the scapegoat but even Facebook traffic is way down as kids find the next thing (Tik Tok?) If you're under 25 I doubt you use forums at all. And conversely as people age a lot find other things to do with their time besides post. It's a catch-22.

I still have never bought any crypto but this is nothing new. Just go back in history and you see the pattern repeats itself. When it gets to a nearly flat period where no one is talking about it then it's close to finally turning. In 2013 BTC went from $100 to $1000 in a month, then a slow 2 year decline where it bottomed out around $250. Recovered to $1000 around 2017 then ran to $20,000 within a year. Then next year a steep sell off until bottoming around $3,000. Chopped around a little bit then this run started from about $10,000 in Oct 2020 to a peak around $69,000 in Nov 2021, basically a year run. So what happens? Probably another 18 month - 2 year decline to around $7500 - $12.5k range. Picking the bottom is impossible but you're one year into it and probably have at least 6 months to go. Good luck.

Both look good. Wear is authentic and helps validate honestly. If they were too Mint then I'd be more worried.

I don't watch NASCAR so I don't know how I even got into this thread, but that is awesome. Go figure.

I'm happy with my pumpkin this year since I'm not the best carver. I always try to pick a nostalgic idea!

It would be extremely obvious if the tray weren't included, the items would just rattle around. You have no reason to worry about a repro.

Wata is by far the most expert service out of the 3 (VGA, CGC) in terms of knowing what they're talking about. You have no concerns.

Ha my copy just arrived about an hour ago ironically. I think Mario sells it period. Played the first and probably never would have if it were just a Rabbids title.

Welcome. There will never be another NA but this is as close as you'll ever get!

The slim fit was a must and long overdue. I also complained about horizontal facing Wata cases on SNES / N64 at release, glad to see that change implemented. I suspect they'll find a way to fill in the white space. Also, as with every change in almost everything ever, people complain at the beginning and then get used to it (no offense to anyone). I hated the Wata tank cases at first / permanent vertical orientation but it grew on me. I thought the CGC case looked way too bland but it's grown on me a little as well. Humans by nature are resistant to change.

That's first print vs GOTY. It's like Player's Choice vs. original release. One is junk and one is collectible. That 9.0 A Halo would be lucky to pull even half that price today though.

You can only see the items that ship to your location. A lot of US sellers only ship to USA so a those results won't appear on ebay.ca. It would be a lot worse if you constantly were browsing stuff you couldn't buy anyway.
