first edition charizard when i was like 10

Once upon a time the TCG was a legitimate hobby for card collectors and/or people who play it.
Now it's been raped and molested by faggots who see nothing it nothing but as monetary value all because of Logan Paul.

Someone needs to steal that Pikachu card and set it on fire.

Do people even pay exorbitant amounts of money for high rarity chase card singles?

The nigger did this with a couple movie promo cards and a bunch of yugioh cards later on. Nothing bad ever happened to him and he now has a wife, a dog, a good job, and owns a house.

Including my fucking heiroglyphic mew from the first movie, I thought that thing was cool as hell and he gave it to his friend. Of course he got to keep his though. FUCK man I forgot how mad I still am about all that bullshit. The rest of my card collection burned in a house fire when I was a teenager that his ex started because he treated an actually insane teenage girl like shit. Totes full of cards in binders kept in good condition (for a kid at least), burned/melted. Nobody ever bothered to hear me out talking about all my cards that I got screwed out of but I actually really fucking enjoyed collecting them and playing the actual card game. Call me nigger or faggot or whatever but maybe you guys can appreciate some of this.

Unpacking cards is the gayest form of gambling, its worse than CS2 crates.

Every kid these days has access to draftkings or stake and can just gamble on sports anyways. Sports betting fucking PRINTS money if you know what you're doing so I see it as for the best

People usually just buy cards from listing sites when it's meta cards and they're often not the rare ones.
When people say "I made $1500" it means they pulled a rare card that got priced by a market website and whether they sold it or not is irrelevant for the (You).

>I might be playing the wrong game
People really think that opening packs = "playing the game" these days huh? God I hate TCG gambling faggots so fucking much it's unreal.

fake and gay

I think they meant it colloquially as in "I might be investing in the wrong side hustle." They probably aren't even aware there is an actual card game.

How? Can't they read the card?

I mean I wouldn't call them people

That Pikachu card isn't even an actual card, it's a diploma shaped like one. I don't get how stuff like that can be considered on the same level as actual cards available in packs you can buy in stores.
