40k for 120$ is really a steal no matter what

@Zjivarra Месяц назад

True. I’m honestly jealous. No deals like that where I’m from. I buy bulk lots all the time and usually it’s about 10 US dollars per 1000 cards. This was definitely a steal.

@AnkeVelter 7 дней назад

TRUE

@baduino 2 дня назад

you might want to go to Comicpalooza in Houston ... Old players always dump their cards upstairs on the floor in a card castle zone for kids... last time there were at least a couple mil cards, nobody would care if you scooped them all up, its just a tradition around here to dump mtg hard.

@@Zjivarra you're actually lucky to get that deal as well. im from Romania and there aren't any deals locally :)

@Zjivarra День назад

@@vycanismajoris5501 ㅠㅠ I bet. My home country is South Africa and when I went home for a visit, I looked around for some deals to get cards for my brother, but couldn’t. Sadly there is a huge markup on MtG in a lot of countries. Wizards should do what a lot of video game developers do, and that’s sell with prices accordingly to what people can afford locally in their home countries. Magic the Gathering woulf have so many more players globally if they did that. But they want the same dollar profits in all regions they sell and ship to. :(

@FilmscoreMetaler Месяц назад

This is the magic equivalent to dumpster diving. One person's trash is another person's treasure they say. Except in this case it's still trash.

@Danielhuren 20 дней назад

im not shure i could call that trash regardless just because that's less then a penny per card if you tried to buy that many from a site or store without setting up a deal you would be shelling out at least a penny a land around 10 cents a common, for the uncommons,rares, between 1-5 dollars on average, and mythics 5+ and thats not even getting into the actual cards

@IzzetNilson Месяц назад

My local game store does this thing where they sell out all their bulk in these mystery boxes. I know it's mostly trash, but sometimes they do put some cool gems in them. My dream is to one day take three or four bulk boxes and try to have a tournament with them with friends. be like "yeah idk what's in here either, let's just slap some stuff together and see how it goes." Looking forward to future videos

@arivald6677 Месяц назад

Just because a card is a common doesn't mean its going to be cheap. There are cards like Rat colony that are worth more than rares. In 40k cards your odds of return are pretty good.

@protobraid2327 Месяц назад

40k has no rarity because every card has the same scarcity. a commen is just as rare a mythic in 40k.

if you sold all 40k cards for 0.01 CAD you'd make 400 dollars and that's lowballing each card to their lowest possible selling point.

@Hiilios Месяц назад

While this is true, it is never that simple. It takes an enormous amount of time to sell this many cards, and that is not including shipping costs if you become an online vendor. It just isn't worth it to sell those cards that are only a few cents, which is why we see so many bulk postings for dirt cheap.

@provolonepop Месяц назад

@@Hiilios there are a lot og Game stores that will buy a bulk like this for a cent per card

@ppsac1 Месяц назад

the cost of selling these cards are just not worth it, you'd be making a loss for every card you sell, even if you sell it for 0.1 each which implies a more than 10x return. Just thinking of cataloging and organizing these cards for sale (online or LGS) will cost a fortune.

@ArdenDag Месяц назад

So many people buy bulk (unsorted, non-machined) for ~$6 /1000. That's easily worth this buy. Once you get sick of looking through for >$1 cards, or buylistables, then you just dump the rest for more than you paid. Easy

@tombiby5892 Месяц назад

No way. 6-10 per thousand is the going rate.

@hotimportknight Месяц назад

I'd love to go through this mess! I love going thorugh "bulk" and finding gold. I played in 99-2004 or so, and got back into it a couple times buying some stuff around Innestrad, then picked up again just before covid for Zendikar. I collected all the old foils I could get my hands on in the 2000's and kept everything protected in binders or sleeves. Glad I never parted with anything, like my friend who got and sold several power 9 over the years. I could use a lot of stuff from this time range probably.

@MageSkeleton Месяц назад

i wish i was friends with someone like you, i do like going through mass random cards and organizing them. My collection is slowly being organized in such a way that i'm filtering out the "chaff useless" cards and i keep moving the "good cards" into their own box's. And i've even decided to make it easier on myself having a box dedicated to cards that are part of combos.

@Mcbuggler 21 день назад

I bought some random bullk cards from ebay. My friend and I will play games with them, and honestly, it's the best way to play MTG. We each will have 1 hour to build our decks without lands, then you can't add or remove any cards after that hour, then add your lands and go at it. Both of us are choosing cards from the same boxes, so it's an even playing field. I prefer playing MTG this way, because it's not about who has the best cards, or who looked up the best strategies. Definitely worth it.

@Loki- Месяц назад

Get a scale. Weigh 1000 cards. Weigh a box. Then weigh ALL the cards inside the box, and subtract the weight of the box. Boom you know roughly how many cards you have

the problem with buying massive collections is it is going to be 99% bulk be it the massive pile of under 1 cent commons or the fact that 90% of rares are under 20 cents... 40000 cards sounds like alot until you realize its only like 2000 rares 99% of which you would never be able to sell as a single
