These are all near mint. There may be a couple that are LP or LP +. I inspect pretty thoroughly before buying. Some bought online so ability to inspect is fairly limited. They’ll stay in my binder but I like clean cards.
I don’t plan on grading any of these. Vintage cards do not grade well even...
Mega Evolutions.
I’ve had no luck at vending machines, but have managed to hit fairly consistently on pokemon center the last couple drops.
I just have to figure out what restock days are at Target, Best Buy, etc. lol
@Invictus nice stash of slabs!

You’re welcome to come pick...
What happens to club donations? Where are the stored and how are they used/further distributed?
Are these items that ultimately find their way to the freebie table at swaps or raffles? Is there a donation list that people can then request items from?
I have dealt with aiptasia in several of my nanos over the years. I have never failed to completely get rid of it (not just manage it) if I acted early enough, when it was only one or two visible aiptasia and well before it became an infestation. Each time, peppermint shrimp have worked for me...
Agree on single polyp Zoas. Especially fresh cuts. Also picked a single polyp Strat, never opened and melted.
Would consider putting red/orange plating montis and standard mushrooms in the “banned” or “temporarily don’t count as an entry” category. I find they tend to be brought in in high...
