I love collecting and ripping packs, it takes me back to the days when I was buying Pokémon, Yugioh, and Digimon from places like Toys R Us (RIP 🥲, kind of, I hear they’re on a comeback tour) I’m new to the Hobby part of collecting, so I’m still learning! I’m happy to hear any tips you might have as a collector! Come join me on my Journey!
Dude, I love the soccer rips! La Liga is the top league in Spain. Frenkie de Jong’s brother Siem played for FC Cincinnati back in the day. Johnny Cardoso is an US Men’s national player Toni Kroos is a German legend! Julián Araujo played for LAFC before moving to Spain. Do they make MLS packs?
The cards looked so good. And they do make MLS! But I think MLS is Topps not sure if this exact product has MLS. But I Acosta and Kubo cards I bought as singles for my collection
Similar in a sense, both came about in the mid 90s. The properties both had cards and shows etc. Pokemon is going to hold more “value” but I’ve always preferred the art of Yugioh. The show is “darker” too and extent as well. Just much more my speed The big dog in Yugioh is Blue Eyes White Dragon (the Charizard of Yugioh)
I got two and not a single Rhodes card 😂 I got these two inserts that are blue aj styles and rey mysterio but mine came bent idk if that’s normal first time opening cards
Yeah it’s a pretty large set so it’s hard to get a specific wrestler sometimes especially on any card that isn’t the base chronicles design. That sucks that they’re bent, sometimes it just happens during the manufacturing process it’s definitely not “normal” and it sucks when it happens. I had a couple cards that I went to put on my eBay store and I noticed they had a bend or mark so to the Pc they went. Not sure if you use eBay but I could see what Cody dupes I have this week and make a listing for a lot for you on the cheap
Little bit over 50 days, this sub was sent through my LCS and at the value level which it’s 45 day turn around I believe so pretty on point with their estimation with shipping both ways. I’ve sent a couple other cards since at higher tiers and they were done in under 20 days but you pay more for those tiers based on higher declared value and quicker turnaround
Honestly some of the base set getting so high is wild like I mentioned in the end cause I had just had them in their binders for 20+ years. Then over the past couple years when I realized “hey you should probably go through and properly store and protect this investment” and all my base set common duplicates were all in the same sleeve (all my Charmander in one etc) some single pockets had up to 12 of the same card in them 😅
how could you be sad with a base set charizard psa 8? thats a 20+ year old card that was never printed perfect. to get a 8 is still amazing. nothing is perfect
An 8 is awesome and it’s a PC Card so I’m very happy to have it protected now, this was just my first time and I know nothing when it comes to grading. I know in the sports card market which I am more in currently (selling my non PC Cards) that anything that isn’t a 10 isn’t desired and that’s not how I look at it like I said at the end I’m very happy with it in an 8 I’m just learning haha I’ve always just enjoyed collecting to collect, but as a 33 year old I’ve learned maybe I should protect more of them since they are an investment you know. Thanks for stopping by and dropping some knowledge
He’s elusive that’s for sure, excited Friday WWE Chronicles releases. Hoping to grab two boxes for the channel and then next month we’re getting Prizm 2024 from what I’m hearing
I really wish I’d bought more boxes. I probably will at some point. It’s been a minute since I ripped this, I know I didn’t have Alfie on an auto but did I have any Theon base? If so it’s yours. I just don’t have the time to look at the moment cause I’m heading to bed
For me it’s Hangers, Target Megas, Blasters, and Walmart Megas just on a value standpoint for me target Megas being $5 more than Walmart and you get two more packs (8 more cards) plus the red cracked ice, it’s just superior to Walmart. Walmart should be $10 cheaper to stay viable
@@thereverendripps1733 for sure I’ve said that since the blasters came out I was hitting mezzanine at the same or less rate wise as courtside. And the mezzanine EASILY has the best photography and proportional design. I hit a purple flash Wemby mezzanine in my blaster video. Couldn’t believe it
Just saw it and congrats. The mezzanine silver Prizm might be as rare as the courtside. Using Wemby. Mezzanine base silver sells for 35. The silver Prizm sells for $260, higher than any unnumbered parallel.
@@thereverendripps1733 people love their silver prizms. They are always the the most sought after non numbered parallel even more than color matches a lot of times which is crazy to me
@@GabeTheCollector And for me in Canada, it's harder to get WWE hobby products as Panini is sending them to fewer stores. So retail is my main source of WWE at the moment
Hell yeah I’ll be there, recon is my favorite basketball of the year easily. Thanks for the sub man, saw you in RGLs stream last night, appreciate you coming over. If you’re into football I pulled a monster from optic, made a short so you don’t have to sit through the whole video
Yeah it’s looking to be a GREAT hit! Watching a CJ that’s at bid for over $300 with over a day left, I know AR isn’t CJ but they’re the two hunts of this class, so they’ll be closer than not in value
@@GabeTheCollector I think AR might go for more than CJ on that parallel because color match, even though he only played a few games last season his market for higher end inserts is still just about as hot
Hope he’s doing well, don’t remember the last update. But yes have him watch and tell me what I pulled 🤣 baseball is my least invested sport time wise I just don’t know much about it but the product had a lot of neat stuff I wanted to check out and I like doing reviews
@@GabeTheCollector I think it's awesome! Honestly I've been itching to get into cards, especially Pokemon and all the gaming related cards! I'll definitely watch your vids! My husband is doing really good now!! 🥰
@@FragJamsey great to hear! Also I’ve been staying away from Magic but they keep having collabs that makes it hard. LotR almost broke me. Fallout had my wallet out but I can’t find any for a reasonable price. I hear 2025 has a Marvel collab and I’m totally screwed hahah
The blue color match made it even cooler, it’s such a great looking card, makes me not want to let go of it 😅 Also Gengar is my favorite Pokemon to collect next to Charmander, I need to pick the one up that in your pfp still
Good hit. Despite what people think all Wemby cards are short printed compared to the other rooks. Luckily you got him. I’ve opened about 9 or 10 prizm products and still no Wemby! Good stuff dude!
100% agree, this tends to be the case for the most sought after rookies in a lot of sets. They don’t come out and say it, but hitting a base of Wemby in any product is not easy. WWE Donruss elite was similar with their legends base. 150 card set, 101-150 was vets, I opened probably 8 blasters and 2 hobby and i think I have 5 or 6 legends. They may not say explicitly that they are SP but they are
@@jgillz6140 I hope that changes for you, I myself have had terrible luck pulling him til last week when I opened a Prizm mega on the channel. I’ve always had to buy my base of him
