 This is not real! They did not write on the card and call it near mint! In today's video, we got back my $1,000 that Twitch chat's been on TCGplayer. YouTube, in the chat, let's go. Let's get back our $1,000 cards. This is the first one. This is from, I think his name is Ken, and he said he sent us some extra stuff. So, let's open this up. We got some giant bubble wrap. If you guys are watching on YouTube, all you have to do is like the video, be subscribed, turn on notifications, and let me know what you think of our purchases and how the conditions turned out. You can win this drone lock bird that was sent to us by a TCGplayer seller. So, it's a perfect giveaway. Fits in the situation perfectly. You guys can win this drone lock bird. So, there we go. Thank you, Ruxen Chat for purchase. Yeah, Ruxen Chat. Chat, you already got shouted out from TCGplayer. An ESU's contact me. Lambs a lot, yeah. I think I'm pretty sure I've interacted with this dude on Instagram a few times, too. So, when I saw his name, I was like, okay, I know this guy. Okay, these are these weird top loaders. They're like cardboard. I don't really know the best way to open them because I've never used them. I guess we just go like this. You got to be really careful though. I don't know. Oh, no, no, no. Look how he did it. He did this. Okay, strategy. I like it. No, it's not cut anything. All right, then he's got a pull tab. All right, there's our rising energy. Okay, front is pretty nice. So, the back is where it's really going to tell the tale. Front looks really good, actually. A little bit of whitening there. Not too big of a deal. I kind of expected on some of these oldies in the old sets. Maybe a little whitening there, but not too bad. Back is honestly pretty clean on this. I don't have crazy lighting going on right now because I don't want to get hot during the stream, but this doesn't look bad at all. Like for TCG player, you know, near mint, what do you expect? I would consider this pretty near mint. Solid, solid card there. I'm not upset with that at all. There's a, I mean, it's not perfect. It's not mint, but it's not bad. So, we can handle that. We got some bonus investments he sent us. What could this be? Okay, upgrade. Well, what is happening? Wait, what is happening? Upgrade copium vote redemption? What does this mean? Is this something we're supposed to do? Wait, before I open this. Upgrade copium vote redemption. What does this mean? Are we just supposed to open these and see what they are? Or are we supposed to like, what does the vote mean? What are we voting for? Maybe you have to vote for the three. Okay, how about this? Whatever you guys vote for, the winner of this one, if it's a better investment, you can swap it with this rising energy because we paid way too much. Paid $14 for this rising energy. If we decide we get a good one, we want to swap it out, we can do it. Copium is the winner. 150 total votes. First of all, no, you know, how about this? We'll reveal the two that you guys did not vote for first and see which one you guys missed out on. Here we go. Oh, so look, we didn't go for the engage, right? And then he sent us an engage. So it looks like he watched our whole video or he might have watched a stream actually. We like looked at the engage. These are the mama versions though, so they are the cheaper ones, but I think that was a good decision. We'd probably rather have. Well, maybe not. I don't know, it depends on if the mama ones go up because they're kind of like penny stocks right now. Not too bad. I mean, that's not bad. Next one, upgrade. Let's see about this 10K, there's 1K purchase. Oh, drawing Lockberg collector rare. Huh? You guys missed out. You should have picked the upgrade. Isn't this like money? Okay, first of all, I don't know why he sent us such an expensive card. Oh my goodness. Go check out his TCG player store, I guess guys because isn't this like 50 plus dollars, 60 even? I think it was like 100 at the time of release, but I don't think it's that much anymore. Wow. Big mistake, Chad. Big mistake. Copium, like were you right? Did you make the right decision? It's going to be hard to be to draw a Lockberg. I can't believe it's only 36 bucks now. That's wild. Still an amazing card though. Here it is, the Copium. This, it's going to be a Picanha Moth. Oh, Fiber jar. Okay. It's not as expensive, but this is an old card. Now we have to decide guys, do you like Fiber jar or rising energy more? Which one would you guys prefer for our investment? It seems that the Fiber jar is overtaken the rising energy. We decided to swap these. So rising energy, you've been booted Fiber jar. You are now in. You've been accepted into the cool kids club. Next, that's only the first package. We've got like 20 packages. These will be a lot faster though because there's like envelope. So we got envelope right here. Okay. There's some cards and a note. Okay. No invoice. Wait. This might not be a TCG player either. Maybe it is. Okay. This says that the name is Therium cards. What is this? Hello, regress. What does this say? Can we read this? I'm so confused right now. That means return in Spanish. Okay. So it's a Spanish guy. Okay. All right. Let's go here. Pull these out. There's no invoice. So I don't know what's going on here. We have night beams. Two of our night beams. All right. Night beams. Here we go. Okay. Let's check this out. Not bad. Not bad. I'm a little scuffing. Little bit of a scratch there in the middle. It's really not that bad though. I mean, it's not perfect. Looks okay. You could maybe be like, yeah. A little bit of a little bit of scratching in there. It's not too bad though. Oh, we got some, we got some edge wear on this one. Unfortunately. Definitely edge wear. Back has definitely some scratches on it. I mean, I would, I would be selling this at light play. Not terrible. A little LP there. A little light play action. So we might have to return that second one. I don't know. We'll have to decide later. Okay. The next one is in-house games. So in-house games, they got some serious packaging here. Really taped. It's so hard. Like, what is this? I think it is tape. He taped it like at the top like that. Okay. Yeah. They don't, they don't take it into account that you like have to get it back open. Like if we were just sealing the card and like sealing it away like the Seal of Orichalcos or something, this would be great. But oh, okay. We got it out. That actually wasn't as bad as I thought. Here we go. Oh, Bacchanio Moth. He literally sealed two common Bacchanio Moth like that. I mean, he had some respect for the card. He respected the goat of cards, the Bacchanio Moth. You know, I thought this was going to be a ghost rare the way he packaged that, which it should be a ghost rare. Honestly, it should be a ghost rare. It deserves it. Next package. This is from MysticTCG. Okay. Then he's got the cardboard. I don't see why people don't just use top loaders like instead of ease and just be a lot easier. I think maybe they're cheaper or something. I don't know. Another night beam. Okay. Let's check this night beam. How's it look? It is, oh, why are all the night beams so scuffed up on the back? That's some serious scratching right there. Personally, I'd sell this as LP. So it's like, and this is where I have to decide. Do I can just go with TCG player near mint and just accept it that it's TCG player near mint? Like personally, I would not want to sell this many scratches as near mint as the highest that you can sell. You know, so am I going to deal with all the returns? Maybe. Who knows? Okay. This is from Dabber's Gaming Cafe. Oh, it's more night beams. Okay. More night beams. Okay. First night beam. This one actually looks pretty minty on the front. A little bit of stuff on the bottom and not too bad. Now this is what we're looking for. This is like minty almost. Now we have no complaints about that one. I mean, there's like slight, slight scuffing, but that's near mint plus for me. I mean, we're taking that night beam. So far, good start. Let's see if their second one lives up to it. Okay. Okay. A little bit more scuffing on this one, but honestly, I'm still at near mint on these. So good purchase from Dabber's. Definitely good. I'll take both of those near mint for sure. Next one. Quattro cards. This is our roses. Uh, how do we, I do not like them. This, if you ever do packaging, I don't like this. I don't like when you tape the card in a sleeve because like, then if you pull on it, it's like pulling on the card. It's just, it's not good. It's not a good way to do it. I would not recommend. So I'm going to do this very carefully under the sleeve. So you kind of have to use a knife and you never want to, you have to use a knife next to a card. It's just not great. This is, this is scary. Okay. We got it out. Let's check the card condition. Packaging, as long as it gets you, oh, it's not great. It's not great for a newer card. I thought it would be just super minty, but it's, it's not awesome. I don't think $1 cards we're going to worry about returning. We're just going to assume they're near mint. Uh, dad, now I would put LP, but we're just going to go with that. Next envelope. Who is it? Big city cards. Okay. So this one is our petite moth. Speaking of one card per sleeve, one top loader with seven cards. Now this is something I never do. The most I put into a top loader is two cards because then when the top loader starts bending to me, like if it's bending out, then that is a sign that it's putting pressure on the cards and, you know, hurting the condition. So if it's doing like this, then I'm going to stop. So I put two, you can easily fit two Yu-Gi-Oh cards into one top loader with no damage. They fit in perfectly. You really don't want to put one card. This is another reason I double sleeve. You put one card in by itself, it can move around. So you either put two cards or you double sleeve. That's the way I do it. Okay. So we've got one, two, three, four, five, six, seven. We've got different versions here. You can tell, uh, seven Picanio moths. That has a scratch right on the back. Great. That is. Wow. Nice and near meant there, huh? Near meant TZG player near meant at it again. TZG player near meant at it again. TZG player near meant at it again. What in the world? Come on. This is just disrespectful. Big city cards. Come on, man. You know this ain't near meant. Okay. I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt. Maybe they didn't look. Yeah. Maybe they just, maybe they just overlooked it. But if you looked at this card and you told me, you know what? Near meant that's just messed up. Not a great performance there from big city cards. Not trying to like, you know, hate on anybody or anything. It's only one order. You know, it could be different. I don't want anybody to like never buy from them or anything because of this, but I do think you should probably check them. I know this was not a big order. This is a $5 order. So it's not a huge deal. We're not going to return these because it's petite moth. You know, but little unfortunate with the conditions on that one. No big deal. That was a meme purchase anyway. Who's this from? Oh, this is the fiber jar. I think this is from no name. Okay. This packaging here right here is why we use the team bags and the double sleeves. This just came out of the package like this. So that's not awesome. Hopefully nothing was dinged. Got to be really careful because it's not the ideal way of taking it out. So this is why my packaging is why I do it. Okay. We got the to the sleeve. Okay. TZG player at it again. We got a Pokemon sleeve. That's not the correct size. You were okay. Maybe a little bit of a bend there might be a bend. Anything on the service actually looks pretty good surprisingly not real. They did not write on the card and call it near mint. What in the world are we watching? Dude. Dude. You sold a $30 card near mint and there's a star written on the back and marker dude. Okay. Is this ironic or what the copium card had the same card? How do they know we needed this? Copium is real. Oh my gosh. What on earth dude? You can't sell a card with marker written on it near mint. Like if this was damage, that's one thing near mint. Well, we have one that we have to return 100%. We have to return this. You are not getting away with this sir. This is why there's no name on the envelope. They didn't put a name on the envelope. All right. We're looking this up. Who was this? Who did it? Raise your hand. If you're in the chat right now, I'm disappointed in you. This is the one that people told me. This is the seller. This seller has over 50,000 completed sales. Can you believe that? 50,000 and they are selling cards with Markered stars on the back as in your mint. Here's what I will say before I reveal who it was because there is something to, you know, saying something about people it being a bad situation. Maybe they overlooked it. If they have 50,000 sales, I'm guessing they have employees. So maybe the employee missed it. So I'll say that, but you got to tell your employees. You can't be, you can't have, you can't have marker on the back of your card. This is from the card stand. I bought from them and someone commented. I think it was on the video and they said, oh no, you bought from the card stand and it looks like they were right. Okay. All right. On to the next one. This one's from Peter. He has, he has an actual like names. This might just be like an individual guy. All right. Night beam. This is Mark just 20 bucks. We didn't pay that much. This was maybe, maybe this guy does have a shop or something and he added up for 20 or something. You got the ultimate rare. Oh, Peter. Talk about a minty looking card. Shout out to Peter. I guess I can say his name because it is his store name. So it's like, I guess he would want that. Shout out to Peter, man. That is an awesome clean looking card. One of the best looking cards we've seen yet. Peter, well done. That's definitely better than a star on the back of our card. I'll say that. Okay. Next we have YGO cards TCG. Let's pull our card out real quick. We've got another night beam. Okay. Let's pull this out a little sticky sleeve here. Feels like, what can we see on the front? Uh-oh. We got a dinged corner right there. Dinged corner right off the bat. Okay. Maybe not backs. Backs actually clean. It is slightly dinged, but on that sucks. It is bent. The rest of the cards clean, but there is a little damage there. But you know what? If that's it, I mean, I would, I would with a little cornering like that, I'd have light play. This might be one that we're just going to overlook and be like, sure, that's fine. It's near meant whatever. That's all right. That wasn't too bad. This one doesn't have a name on it. Last time that happened, we had a star on the back of our card. It's okay. It's just the Picanha moth. Will it be better than the ones that were all like written on this stuff? Gosh. Okay. Where's the envelope? Yeah. I mean, I'm not returning this anyway, but man buying these common cards near meant on TCG player. Nightmare, dude. Nightmare. That thing is disgusting right there. I'm sorry Picanha that you retreated that way. It's okay. It's our meme purchase anyway. YGO wonder up next. Oh, okay. The boxia ultimate rare. I'm a little nervous because this is more of a higher end one. I don't like doing tape like this. It's not the worst thing you can do, but it's not my favorite. I used to do this. So I can't it's not terrible. If you double sleep, but the problem is when you don't double sleep, it can follow the sleeve and then hit the tape and damage it like that. So you really don't want to do that boxia ultimate rare front looks. Okay. That was just a whisker. I thought there was a bend or something first. Oh, okay. A little bit of a line there. I think that probably is print that line coming down. I've seen that out of the packs. That's not too bad. This is I think okay. I think this is not like mint or anything, but I think it's possible it came out of the pack like that duelist alliance ultimate rare. I think that looks fine for an older somewhat of an older card like eight years old. This looks fine. So I think they didn't YGO wonder was was fine saying that was near mint. That's not a big deal. So we'll take that. Not bad CCG view dot com from Richard. Here's another pecanium off. Come on back. Be nice. Front looks good. I mean, compared to the other ones is not that bad, but it does have some scuffing on it. This is a M R D E and though the rare variant very nice. Okay. With all the ones we've seen, I'm becoming a little desensitized to how good it is. It's it's fine. It's like like play the LP something like that. Okay. This guy's name is Pogi magic. So Pokemon YGO magic pretty cool name. I'm very, very nice. You got all three in there. Pogi magic. Let's see what you did. See, I just do not like this packaging because it's difficult. It's it's good because like, I think he's got it in here with a team bag too. It's actually really good packaging. If it's like a really nice card, but if it's like a $20 card, I think it's a little excessive, you know, like select. Let's see what card it was. Okay. So he did this for like a $4 card. So it's like respect the hustle. I think it's a little overboard, but look, the card comes minty. I can't complain, you know, and as long as I can open it safely, there's nothing to complain about. Honestly, it's great packaging. Like he has like five different layers, you know, really not not a lot to complain about. And he's even got doubled here. He's tamed there. He's got that there. The back is looking maybe nice so far. Dang, this is nice dude. I mean, there's slight scuffing, but wow, that is an old ulty. That looks amazing. Okay. Pogie magic. Shout out to that guy. Pogie magic. That's one of the best looking cards we've gotten yet. Still have a ton of envelopes left, but we're, we've got a while to go. I've got the big one. I'm saving the big ones for last. So we'll see what, wait, who's this from? YuGyoGaming.com. Okay. It's Picanium off again. This one is another M-R-D-E-N. Nice. Oh, a little bit of stuff back there. Probably not near mid, but, you know, close enough with what we've seen on those Picanios. The commons are apparently the hardest ones to actually, you know, get nice. Okay. Next one, funtastic pop. Rising energy. Oh no. Oh no. He's got a fingernail in it. Our first bad one in a while. Oh no. I mean, the rest of the card looks good. It's such a shame. Yeah. I mean, you can't go near mid on that. That's, I mean, mod play automatically, right? Yeah. We'll return that one. Unfortunately. Next up, low P rises. So low prices, but it's separated in a weird spot. That's actually kind of a funny name. Okay. We got more roses here. So these are more of our roses. So we did buy more. It just seems like it was a different seller. Skystrike or ace rose at it again. We've got clean rose. There we go. Better than the other one we got earlier. Back looks pretty good on this one. Those both look pretty minty. Nice looking cards for the rose. Moving on to the next one. We've got sloppy turkey. Let's see how this one looks. This looks like a reprint. So absolutely do not do that. Yeah. That is a bad idea. Okay. That is near meant because that is a brand new card. It's a reprint. I'm joking. Okay. I'm glad to hear that because I was worried for a second. Some people actually think you can do that though. So you have to, you have to cut that down or people are like, what really? I can clean my cards. I can do that. All right. We got a TCG player direct order. Time to see how this goes. Here we go. So here's the no top loaders. That seems like a disaster waiting to happen. Yeah. Okay. That makes me not want to use TCG player direct. If they're going to sell my cards like that, not going to lie. Don't love that. We've got clean. That looks great. So the cards nice. Didn't get damaged. That's good. These look minty. They are new cards. So unless they got like damaged in transit, which with no toppler, good chance, looks like these cards are nice. So that's good. All right. It turned out fine. I guess I can't question it. It turned out fun. Cow's house night beams. We are not done. We are not done with the night beams. Okay. Night beams. We've got a lot of them here. First off, we have pretty nice. They're all in the same sleeve. I never love to see that, but sometimes that happens. Slight scratching, but not bad. That's, that's fine. Near mint. How are we looking? Overall, okay. We've had a couple of night mercenaries. That is very scratched up. That is definitely LP at best. So one near mint, one LP for cows house. And then a lot of the night beams came LP. I mean a decent amount. That's like in the middle of the two. Probably wouldn't return that one. But yeah. So we got another LP. Yeah. You know, you know, it's whatever. I've accepted at this point. Okay. Everything left is not an envelope. So now we're on to like, you know, nice stuff potentially open this way. This is from turtle rock gaming inside. What do we buy? It's a, these, uh, they've got these shipping shields, which some people like. I don't know if I like them or not. Haven't used them much. Okay. This is our, our ash blossoms. I think we bought six of these, right? Are they all from the same seller? Secret rare. Looks pretty good. Let's leave it up. I mean for on average, I think for the most part we have decent conditions. We do have several instances where it's not good though, but that's good. It's just the majorly bad ones that really stick out. It's a third copy. This is new. So it should be in decent condition, right? All these seem pretty clean. So so far a great purchase. I don't remember who this was, but good purchase so far. Only one left is nice as well. Okay. So all the ashes looked good. That's, that's good. All six from the same person. Okay. Next it says, please don't bend. Okay. This is from FTKampa collectibles. So let's see. Uh, okay. Here are cards. Oh, there's the, uh, catastrophe. That might be the only card we bought from this guy. Did we buy multiples? I mean, we bought one catastrophe. We might have bought other things. It was just a catastrophe. Okay. So he basically did what I do. Same packaging. He did triple top loader. He did double sleeve. He did cart or a team bag. Big fan of the packaging. He also taped down the cards here, which I don't know if you need to do that, but a couple extra top loaders there. That's not bad. And then, okay. He double-sleeved. He also did the tape as well. So he went extra hard. Not bad. I like that packaging. Well done. Gotta be careful with these to get them out. Nice and slow. Ultimate rare is good. And the back's good. Oh, I just realized we don't have any music on this whole time. Have we? We should probably turn some on. Should we turn some music on? Crispy collectibles up next. I remember we got something decent from Crispy collectibles, I think. Didn't we? Crispy himself. I don't, I don't really know Crispy, but, uh, Christy or Crispy. Huh? Why is there a dark vile plume? P.S. It's stuck to the top loader. Dark vile plume, minimum grade. Okay. I don't see the point of that, but okay. Instant fusion. This is the one where you guys made me buy this, even though you knew I didn't need this. Okay. This is a little business card too. Let's check it out. We've had some weird orders today. That's for sure. Let's see if it's near mint. Front looks good. Good start. Back looks. Oh, no. Oh, that's just the artwork. Okay, good. That's just the artwork coming through. I thought that was a cut in it. All right. Minty AF. Really nice. Beautiful inst fusion. Okay. Crispy collectibles. Shout out to them. That was a nice purchase. So far the people in the bubble mailers have been killing it. They know what they're doing. They know what they're doing. Next up, Simply Unlucky Games. The man himself, Simply Unlucky. Let's see what Simply sent us. Is whatnot top loaders? Okay. 23 gate guardians. Do you guys voted for all of them? Are these all in one sleeve? How do you fit 23 cards in one sleeve? It's impressive. I'm not going to lie. So all of these, they're probably brand new. Just check the backs. I mean, they look, they look fine. I mean, this stuff on the back is just how they come out. They're a little bit glossy. So they got a little extra something going on. So it looks like the gate guardians are fine. That's a plus. I'm going to have to sleeve these up later. All right. A few left. Our next one is Prodigy Games. We got Prodigy Games coming up. We have Yazi Evil the Yang Zing. Front looks good. Back looks pretty good. Little print line down there. No big deal. That's fine. That looks like a nice card. That is a nice looking card. We'll take that. Now, dad, it's a pretty new card. So it shouldn't be too bad, right? Is that card bent? Okay. There's the back scuffing. That, that's natural. Is it bent? I can't tell. And it's not too bad. Whatever it is, it's fine. All right. Next up, George in. So we've got two cards in the same sleeve and high end cards. You don't really love to see that. Battle Fader is nice on the front. Pretty clean. I mean, a little scratch on the back. It's not too bad. I don't think that's anything I would freak out about. All right. Then we've got the Colossal Fighter. Front looks good. Back. It got a little, it looks like a dent there, but that's just from the artwork. Actually, pretty minty. These cards actually look good. Colossal Fighter is good. Okay. We got another one. This one's from, I just cut it open. It's from Galaxy Buster TCG. It is a Pot of Desires Ultimate Rare. I forgot we bought this. Yeah. Cause we were thinking maybe it came back to three. Could help out. Is this going to be near mint? Ultimate Rare Pot of Desires. Looks great. Looks awesome actually. Great packaging. Really nice condition on the card. Pot of Desires is looking fresh for us. Not bad. Two left. Top table gaming. Oh, our Trap Tricks. Yes, I forgot about our Trap Tricks. Trap Tricks, Trap Hole Nightmare. Trap Tricks, Trap Hole Nightmare. Back. Scratchy. Probably, oh, I dropped it. That doesn't help. That's probably LP, but you know, it is what it is, you know? Okay. That one didn't look great. This one looks much better. A little bit of scuffing in the middle. Okay. Two more of these. Those, one looked okay. One didn't. This is why I don't put a bunch of cards in the same top loaders. You can't get them out. I can't get this out. Can I break this top loader? Sometimes you can pop it. That's the dangerous way. I don't think that was a good idea. Okay. This is definitely getting sketch. I don't know how to do this. The best way to do this is, okay, let's see if I can get the bottom card. Oh, okay, we got it. Okay. I don't think I damaged anything somehow. Front looks good. Back looks clean on this one. Really clean. That's a super nice one. Clean back. Wait, has it got something on the back? A little bit, but not too bad. Okay. So other than that one, these are pretty clean. One left. Last card. It is in a top loader. They also have a little, they have their own like little magazine thing going on here. Cool. Okay. The rescue rabbit. I forgot about the rescue rabbit. Hey, look, this is packed exactly how I packed mine. Literally the exact same way. Other than the, they didn't double see the rescue, the rescue rabbit. That's it. Rescue a rabbit. Let's go. That looks pretty clean. Ruxen 34. Rescue a rabbit. Okay. So for the most part, most of our cards looked pretty good and the TCG player stuff. Some were a little iffy, but most of them looked pretty good. Overall decent. I mean, the star really took the cake for being the worst. I mean, that was awful. There was a few cards that were moderately played. We didn't have anything like, there were no creases the entire time. No creases. That's pretty good. That's pretty impressive. So I will take that.
