Krispy Wafer posted:You still wouldn’t come out ahead on a lease like that because moral hazard means anyone using it would 100% be dragging their car through the dirt. The leaser would have some kind of gotcha to protect themselves from getting back a 3 year old Sentra with 300k miles and an engine compartment full of squirrels. if they lease for three years at that rate and don't even give the car back, you've still made 100% ROI at MSRP

Ooh, ground floor. A highlight from the OP in the comments: quote:Yes, the thing is we went to school to be Nurse practitioners so we can live a good life but by the time you deduct my loan bills every month I probably make less than most people. It’s crazy. There has to be some kind of way to not pay some of it and lose my credit

He’s been one of the two best players on the planet for the past five years, so there’s definitely some justification for this absurd price but also... there’s not at all lmao Zion Williamson cards have gone for over $100k as well. poo poo’s wild

Phanatic posted:Counterpoint: MtG could simply reprint all those high value cards and then they would no longer scare new players off from the market. they actually can't they bizarrely chose to enter into this legal-ish agreement in 1996 promising to never reprint hundreds of cards explicitly so that they'd hold their value lmao e: and now that it's severely hamstrung older format popularity, pretty much everyone would be okay if they reneged on that except for a few smaug-rear end motherfuckers sitting on a pile of five-figure cards (also, these cards were produced with 1993's top anti-counterfeit technology, meaning none, and nearly-indistinguishable fakes are on the market. so, there's that) Spokes fucked around with this message at 20:45 on Jun 21, 2020 |

Phanatic posted:They adopted a policy, they didn't sign a contract. They can unadopt that policy whenever they want. note: biggest IANAL ever here -- i'm only parroting what i've heard other folks say, but i believe they're concerned about legal action (even frivolous) based on "promissory estoppel". folks invested a lot of money in their collections based on Wizards (now a part of Hasbro) promising that they wouldn't take this action that would cause the value of those collections to go down. Whether they're justified or have merit or whatever is a concern for smarter people than me, but it doesn't really benefit Wizards to remove the policy* and would just cause them potential headaches at best (and if a judge/jury did find them liable, oof). *aside from making a quick 200k on Secret Lair: Duals or whatever edit: also this isn't just something they said in magic's infancy, they reiterated it in the 2000s and 2010s. some people are absolutely going to be upset and damaged enough to pursue legal action if they go back on it, even if it's just a very small minority

thekeeshman posted:Stupid buttcoin question: The people processing the transactions are rewarded with new coins right? So when the limit hits how do they get paid? Or does no one process transactions anymore? yeah the people wrecking the ozone layer and destroying graphics cards or w/e get a piece of new "blocks" when they're "mined", which is a finite number. They also get a small* amount of any transaction processed, which will continue even after all the coins are "mined". to "Solve" this "issue" (meaning, to make sure the miners don't take a cut) and also because, lol, bitcoin can only handle a few transactions per second, things like the "lightning network" have been invented, which is where you just pretend you're receiving and sending money and trust that the """"network"""" definitely has your butts if you want it. *it's like ten dollars now. can you imagine paying ten dollars in transaction fees to buy something

I don't really have much but the "they said $2000 total" vs "they said $2000 MORE" debate is the absolute worst thing i've had the misfortune to read this year and both sides are so incredibly proud of Gotcha-ing each other. It's certainly Bad With... something
