i know conventions are a whole other beast but lots of cards shops round me just see pokemon players as easy marks or something and have no investment in their relationships w customers, i rlly appreciate you taking the time to look through and compliment ppl’s collections who just come to show you, collecting is awesome but it’s even more awesome when you are free to share it with others and you are great at encouraging both. thank you
I agree with this comment for the most part. Not a lot of people in our own day to day travels when collecting really mention the appreciation of true collecting. It’s all about what’s worth more. Honestly the world is moving too fast due to social media. Everyone wants the best and most expensive, or talk about others who have those things. I like a slower life. Appreciate it more that way.
I just mentioned the same thing in one of Rudy's comment sections on a comment someone had said. Things are moving too fast. Everything is about the line charts and candle sticks. But really, those are the losers. The winner have patience and genuinely enjoy collecting, trading, and selling. My mom always taught me "good things come to those who wait" over and over again. Let it go up and down. After a few years, it's going to automatically be worth more anyways. I collect Pokemon primarily to just trade and sell to fund my Magic card addiction lol. But that doesn't take away from my enjoyment of the collecting and interactional process of the whole thing. Which is why I do it! And I just sell at whatever fair market price is. It's not about profit for me, its just about getting a bit of my money back on a box so I can try again to see if I can pull what I REALLY wanted.
"I like that this scam artist shakes my hand before he scams me" you ARE an easy mark. The entire TCG selling community is rich guys who have money to burn buying shit in bulk and making an obscene profit selling overpriced cardboard to people with poor impulse control. I feel like the people who say things like this are the type of people who think they found a stripper that's really interested in them because her smile touched her eyes once.
Hello, I discovered your channel by accident. I'm not interested in Pokemon or cards, but you are honest and nice to people and it's good to watch. I wish you luck. Greetings from Poland.
I think it’s difficult for parents to drop 30$ on cardboard, but once they see coop being nice and genuine while lowering the price, they are willing to spend the cash with no hesitation lol
I am really not commenting on any youtube videos, but you seem to be such a genuine good person, that I just wanted you to know that. I admire your talking to the kids on a mature level and giving away cards they like. Please stay just like you are, you are a wonderful human being.
My 7yr old son and I have been growing a collection for about 4 years. It’s not big, but we both really enjoy it so when we have the extra money we’ll get a couple packs and see what we find. I just read a news article about you and how you light up so many kids days at these collectors events and I had to come subscribe! I have to say as a mom, I’m very proud of you! Thank you for seeing how special this is for kids and adults alike, and making it more so with your generosity! 🎉
It’s like Coop came from the late 90’s. Down to earth. Into the true collecting but still making money. It’s the wholesome interactions like these where you wish the world didn’t revolve around money and everyone’s needs were met without having to struggle. So we can have these great times with each other a lot more.
this is exactly why i watch Coop.. it brings me back to when i was a kid and buying/trading basketball cards. I met a lot of nice people back then that I won't forget. And Coop has that same kindness from that era that I remember.
Hey @Coop, I want you to know that there must be an audience, like me, that don't care about Pokémon or collecting cards but have been watching your videos just because your sweet interactions with people and kids. Please continue!
Coop, I really admire the energy you give to everyone you interact with at these shows. Authentic to you and it comes across, it's what we're all drawn to and is a big reason your channel is growing and it's so deserved. You inspire me to be a bit kinder and more generous man!
Man I hope I get to meet this dude one day what solid individual, people like him make it fair in life ! Very personable and you can tell where his heart at ! Keep up the solid videos brotha 🤙🏼
Man you got me back into the hobbie, just opened some packs of obsidian flame with my daughter and got the stain glass charizard on the first pack I opened in 20 years. It was a sign. I’m opening a ETB tonight… we gonna do it anyway!
That one kid that asked for $10 for his card and ran off needs to learn some manners geez, parents please teach your kids to say please and thank you, it’s not hard.
Just stumbled to your page by suggestion algorithm and after 5min of watch time i subbed. Youre my first card trading content creator i subbed to. You’re pure genuine gold my guy. 💞
Its so nice seeing someone who doesn’t care primarily on the money aspect of it, so many vendors nowadays shoo away people who don’t have monetary value, Coop sees people for who they are whether it be collecting or buying he just wants to make people happy! Keep it up Coop
Also just to add it’s awesome to see so many customers returning like they due and the kids at the beginning is nice it’s great to see young collectors with such passion and excitement like everyone had when Pokemon first came out including the tv show
You're not a celebrity at all. You are just a fantastic, good, genuine human. The world needs tens of thousands more of you. I need to be more like you TBH. Keep being such an honest human. I strive to be like you!
It always brings me happiness watching your videos. God bless you for making memories for the children and happiness to everyone that watches. You're not just a trader but a life changer bro
You're a really cool dude man. Seeing that girl with the pikachu shirt just hang out at your table and chat it up with some other guests with you was so tight. Are you an uncle or a dad? I hope you are because you'd be a great role model in some child's life man. Keep it up dawggy you're inspiring as fuck.
I always wonder what's on your table Coop so its nice to see it in the opening video! Also, glad you kept Wyatt's drawing!!! You should ask him to sign it and frame it! 😁
Another great video Coop! You motivated me to get back to collecting after 15 years. Getting started with Temporal Forces and seeing where that takes me.
If you look at the whole convention/event as a board game like Monopoly, Coop is the tile with GO collect money/card(s). Thank you Coop for such great content!
This is awesome, thank you for sharing this. I haven’t collected Pokémon since a kid, but seeing your passion and kindness sure was fun to watch! Heart of gold.
So inspiring to watch you do business and help kids out at the same time. The parents there helping them become social and engaging in a fun hobby is also inspiring. Thanks for sharing this. Making me want to get back into collecting! I still have the first pack sealed with the chansey coin haha
Hi Coop. I don't collect and know nothing of collecting but i subscribed to you. The reason is that I love your interaction with your customers, your passion for your trade and the passion you instill in the kids who come to you. Your generosity with the kids is genuine and the fact that you go out of your way to deal fairly with all your customers. I wish you every success
Coop you’re very smart building relationships with these young customers. Give a kid something Free they’ll always come back & when it’s their bday ChaaaChing!!! $$$$$$
love the new intro showing everything for each show now you continue to improve and amaze me with your content skills and personality!! wish you the best brother you got this !!
I used to be obsessed with Pokemon but I was shamed by my friends for liking them thus i distanced myself and outgrown it. I remember collecting pogs(those circle card thingies) and exchange them for a Pokemon toys and cards, if i completed a collection. Watching your videos awakened my old love of pokemon. You're awesome.
Professor Coop aka Santa Coop, you are beyond fantastic!!! I stumbled across your channel four days ago, immediately subscribed and started binge watching!!!!!
Bro your interactions are just the best! Should write on my bachelor thesis did watch the whole video without realizing it was 1:16h :D Keep the great work, keep your smile! You know what the Hobby is about. :)
I could watch these videos of yours for hours. Love the content and i know how much time it probably takes to edit all the cuts ❤ You are the best Coop!
The kid who collects Trainers, kinda pretty cool, never thought about collecting them, they're super powerful tools, like why have I never thought to collect them specifically.
Without Pokerev and other big influencers these card shows wouldn't happen as often. You can have both small and big communities; it doesn't have to be one or the other.
Watching Coop’s videos has got me buying Pokémon cards now. And my knowledge on Pokémon is the same as Coop knowing sports cards 😂😂. But I wish there were more ppl like coop in the sports game everyone is just trying to make a dollar. Keep doing what your doing man love your content 👏🏼🙌🏼
Thanks for being so charitable and uplifting Coop! I collected cards myself when I was younger, some of my best memories. This is just a small gift for you to keep going Take care!
As a die hard pokemon and ravens fan. Hang onto that card, Zay is an absolute beast, he broke numerous rookie records for the ravens and is set to have an amazing sophomore year. Loved seeing ya get that card!
@@PHN-2024 a real football fan knows that the game shouldnt cone down to one or two plays. Coaching and not running the ball as the #1 rushing offense in the league last year is what cost us. Not saying zay didnt make mistakes, but its not all on him
