 No matter which community you're in, collectors around the world dream of obtaining that one big item in their space. Whether it be a famous painting like the Mona Lisa, a vintage car such as the 1967 Corvette, or of course something we're more familiar with, a rare trading card, these items hold significant nostalgic or collectible value to the people who chase them. Something that makes the trading card world unique to other collectibles, however, is that a lot of the desired cards are obtained by way of a booster pack and can thus be acquired cheaper than the cost of the item itself. If you get lucky and pull one. Because these multi-thousand-dollar cards can be pulled from much cheaper packs, the moment when one lucky son of a gun pulls one are absolutely magical. A couple of examples of this in popular card games such as Magic the Gathering and Pokemon include this legendary Black Lotus Pull by Open Boosters, and this Charizard pulled by Leonhart. Now Yu-Gi-Oh also has Grails to be pulled, and it has happened a couple of times, first by the old school expert back in 2013, and later again by Yu-Gi-Oh old school in 2018. But since these pulls, there hasn't been much luck, and it hasn't been for lack of trying. I personally have opened over three boxes worth in that time, but I've yet to get lucky. Who knows? Every blue eyes in existence may have already been pulled, or there just aren't enough boxes being opened on camera for us to see it ever happen again. Or so I thought. Now I may not have expected to see a blue eyes pulled from a box again, but there is something I knew that I could count on my blue eyes pulling from a box. A delicious meal from Factor. Okay, I don't have blue eyes, but it'd fit better if I said I had blue eyes, okay? It just makes more sense. Though I've not yet pulled a blue eyes myself, Factor is helping me toward that goal by saving me time during each meal. No more going out to the grocery store or restaurant when I should be grinding trying to pull a first edition blue eyes. Take flight, blue eyes, white dragon, rise! Factor delivers nutritious food fast. Not only does it arrive to your doorstep quickly, the meals themselves are ready in two minutes or less. And after you're done with your two minute meal, you don't even have to bother with clean up, because there is none. I personally love using Factor because of my busy schedule.

On February 2nd, 2024, I got a message on Instagram from a guy asking about a Legend of Blue Eyes box that he bought. He had some questions about its authenticity, which I tried to help verify the best I could, but it can be difficult over pictures and things like that. After a few messages back and forth over the next few days, he was confident enough in the box being real to open it. And what happened, you'll just have to see. I was able to record an interview with him shortly after to capture his feelings about the experience and to show you guys what happened. First of all, what's your name? Okay. I'm Quentin. Quentin Gerard in France. And that's the second question. Where are you from? So I guess you're from France? Yes, from France, but in Lyon. Lyon in France. I feel like I don't see a lot of French collectors, to be honest. So that was pretty interesting when I thought you might, like, I wasn't 100% sure, but I thought you said you were from France. And I was like, that's pretty cool, actually, because I know a lot of German collectors, but not so many French. So when you said that, I was like, that's pretty interesting, actually. Are there a lot of collectors around you? We have other collectors, but it's not same like US or England. Yeah. We have not a real market. Right now, French people doesn't want to put some money in the U.G. I think that a lot of people are feeling like that right now. So that that is that might translate over pretty soon. So, but it's cool to see that you're still like grabbing this cool stuff. So why did you even start in the U.G. Collecting? Was it like recent or was it like a childhood thing that you got back into or have you always been into it? My passion began when I was a children. You know, I began my big collection science one years. I began with L.O.B. French box. Oh, yeah. After I do elemental energy, O.B. first, after cybernetic revolution and for finish L.O.B. first, I buy one L.O.B. first science four or five months ago, a wavy box, and it was a fake. Oh, no. Okay. There's a lot to unpack there. Oh my goodness. Okay. We got to come back to the fake, but you said you thought that you think that the English is the best. Why do you think that since you are from France? The print is better. There is more possibility and if you want to sell it back, it's more easy because anyone wants to buy US cards. But if you buy French cards, it's only to sell in France. Yeah. So yeah, that makes sense because I feel like if you're not from the U.S. or whatever, people like to open those U.S. boxes because they know if they do open them and get something, the U.S. people will be like interested in it, you know, and I guess it was one of the earliest like prints was the U.S. print or whatever. So very cool. But we got to get into the fake. So you've got a fake box at some point. And that's why you messaged me, I guess, to say, is this one real because you had already had a fake box. I was scary of opening. I cut, but in the original video, I cry, man. I see it's real booster. I cry, man. How much did you how much did you spend on that fake one? And did you get a refund or anything? Wavy. 50K. Oh, man. 15. 15. 15. 15. 15. 15. 15. 15. 15. 15. 15. 15. 15. 15. 15. 15. 15. 15. 16. 16. 17. 17. 18. 18. 18. And so I guess you did you get any money back or what? Where'd you buy it from? Facebook, you know. Facebook. But the seller didn't know that was a fake box. Yes. The seller didn't know what it was. They got scared at some point. He has a box signed 20 years. For me, 20 years ago, don't exist a fake box. It's not possible. Yeah, those. Those fakes actually date back pretty far, which makes them really scary The big the big way to sell their fake. Yes. Yes. I see you know the K and oh, yeah They're taught it though. Oh in the inner touching right there. That's always a fake. It's their one mistake It looks great other than that. It's such a weird way, but it's always right So from now on if you if you're watching the video and you ever want to buy LOB like this guy or me Then make sure you check if it's a wavy box that the oh and then in the Konami logo are not touching because if they're Touching it all it's a fake so you got the fake box Did that discourage you from buying another box at any point for a wheel? I don't want to buy a new box because for me. No, it's not possible. It's too stressful. Yeah. Yes. Yeah, I don't see it man But I see this box every condition was for I buy this box and I see this box glossy box I open with the default she has a little scratch. So his price was a little Lower no, yes, it was from a Maggie shop in Japan. Yes, my good job in Japan It was a better condition and when I reception I see everything Okay, oh, it was good don't touch when I don't know any nothing weird this time. So you felt a lot better. Yes, yes But I don't sleep. Yeah, you see me all those messages like oh is this look real I was like it looks pretty good to me from what I could tell I mean I can never like verify from that far But everything was how much did you get this one for are you comfortable talk? Telling how much it was Yes, of course. No problem 12 12 12,000 that's really good. That's really good. Okay Yeah, that's awesome. That's a really good deal I suppose I mean the market's coming down But even then you don't see glossy like for that cheap to these days. That's so really good The market is currently really they're really down. So oh, yeah, I don't know why because it's where It's like real-life stuff coming in but does make it where like you could do something like LLB first-aid box And you're not gonna like die doing it So it's like, you know, you've got a chance because if it's still 50k like I don't know if I could open one at 50k Like that's just so much but 12k. It's like well, you know, like maybe if I pull blue I know I got potential to pull something big or whatever. Okay, you've kind of elaborate a little bit on this But why did you buy a box like this? And why did you spend like $12,000 to open a Yu-Gi-Oh box? Because I it's my job science one years and in France. We don't have Wetro box. We don't have LLB. We don't have elemental energy We don't have Jigs box, you know, it's very very difficult and me. I love opening this And it's difficult but I find I find Seller no buyer. Sorry. I sold in advance for opening in life, you know, yeah, and it's just I I love that Yeah, I love the energy LLB box for me. It's the best. I can't do better. No, it's good It's just fun like I can relate it's fun It's a thrill to when it's the big like old stuff You're like, I've never opened this before, you know, so it's yeah, I can relate with that for sure now now that we've kind of talked about what you wanted and People probably already know but let can you show everybody what you pulled you pulled a pretty late in the box And then you pulled dark magician was that the last pack? Yeah, you know what I beggining I sold every pack You know the 24 I wait the 24 packs. Yeah, but the wait wasn't good, you know, right? The first I open it's a fake. Yeah So the other buyers say no, no, no, you don't open. Yeah, only one say yes I open I I begin with the top all the worst. Maybe the worst. Yeah The third pack I open fake Fail. Yeah, so in the pack I have one supper. It's difficult in France to say open This is just like when I got my red eyes. I was weighing them and getting nothing to Wayne glossy I tell people all the time Wayne glossy is just you never know sometimes it works Sometimes it does it and it sounds like it didn't work for you either. Yeah, I was for me I'm what I was some desu Incomfortable because yes, you know, there is some Customers and they paid for it and you know you wait and you you don't got Like it how many total packs did you have to to open to get to all the foils or did you open all the foils? No, I open three supers once a quetz tool for and the one super is He's leaving the yes one super is in the box. No problem. Yeah. Yeah, I don't know read at that point It's just like it's whatever. Yeah, no big deal But the tool last it was blue eyes and dark magician Oh This absolutely crazy so I was gonna ask what you do with them next but it looks like they've already been great it So can you show us the greats? Ah, yes. Yes, I can show you So I chose the PSA for try on okay because it's the choice of the buyer So I choose other it shows CC reading. It's a French company. Wow What are the sub grades something 8.5 because every car has a fight fight something about stuttering Yeah, but I was surprised for that magician. Yeah, okay about something but Corner 10 edge 9.5 and so far so five 9.5 yeah, so it's really solid besides the centering. It's really good besides that It's just a centering I've had the same issue with glossy all of mine have been off-centered every time I pull a glossy card It's off-centered and for the dark. I have two problem. I have a little scratch at the back. Oh No, what a barber. It's from a Ozokal. Yeah, it's from Ozokal in the booster. So it's it's a problem of the packaging like printing problem You know, yeah in the booster. Yeah, it's okay. I think it's with the time, but I have a 9 With off-center. Yeah. Oh see. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, wow Here Man that thing is so off-center. It's actually kind of cool actually It's crazy to get off-center because if he he didn't get off-center. It was like 8.5 Yeah, because of off-center. Yeah, it saved it. Yeah. Yeah, that's actually pretty awesome So what happened was you sold the pack to buyers and then they pulled these in your you bought them and then graded them Is that what happened? Yes, I like it.
