Trying to Get Rich Off Pokémon Cards 

Np

NOOOOO I WAS JUST GOING FOR IT

Jesus that was quick. I just got to that part of the video 😭

Noooooo

Why didn’t I watch the video on double speed 😫

Same here lmao

Digivolve into digitherapist

Why tf am I laughing my ass off over digimon puns 💀

@@bubaaaaaaaaa You could say you were digilaughing your digiass off at some digipuns

I've only played the actual card game once 😂

I like collecting the holographic cards cuz they're super shiny and make the Pokemon look even more cool 😂😂

Because the card game is ass

I had naruto cards, Pokémon, Digimon, yu-gi-oh and various other cards. Never learned but still had fun

Yeah this was everyone. My friends and I all had insane book’s I remember everything on my front and second page. We all left them over at my buddies in like 4th grade and for years I’d see them laying around like ten years after we left em they were still there. One day when I found out they were selling for hella bread again I asked my buddy if they were still there and his mom had finally decided to throw them away lol I was kinda heartbroken honestly. First page was charmander, charmeleon, charizard (I paid $25 for in 4th grade.) second row was dark charmander, dark charmeleon, dark charizard. Bottom row Dr Blaine’s charmander, dr Blaine’s charmeleon, and dr Blaine’s charizard ppl used to go crazy over my front page. On the back of that page or the second page whatever lol I had all the legendary birds holographic it was all crazy I coulda sold that book for quite a bit if it wasn’t gone. But yeah I played the game like once, but one day I came over to that same friends house because we were all there like everyday and my two buddies were playing a game with cards I never seen or heard of. They told me it was kinda like Pokémon but it’s a new show called Yugi-Oh.. we started playing and it was awesome we started playing so much never having seen the show myself lol but I was loving the game.

When you said that she was a fan too I was expecting her to have a bunch of binders full of Pokémon cards behind her desk

Reminds me of my 3rd Grade Teacher, she had a HUGE collection of cards in boxes and she'd let us trade and play Pokemon during recess. I remember having this rivalry with this one boy over who got to trade with her first and it was a blast. I think she gave both of us a little blind bag with Pokemon cards at the end of the year when we were going on to 4th. She was a great teacher and actually helped me figure out that I was nearsighted so I could get my glasses, so thanks Mrs. Jones, wherever you are.

@@marnmalue9135 I miss the days when our lives were this simple.

@@chrometheraptor turns out he's a card dealer and have done so for years of his time teaching. Basically drug dealers.... But pokemon cards.

Best thing I’ve read today.

Just telling you you have 1.2k likes!

@@embryonic7692 1.6k likes now, and it's only been a day lol

Look @ me go lmao thanks 4 letting me know y’all!

2.6k now

I wonder where the "EEEEEeeeEEuEEEeEuuuUUUuuwWWwwWWEHh!" comes from.

mine banned it because the battles were violent so we had to try to do it without getting noticed 😭

@@heejinscementbrownies1385 throwing cards on cards are violent, lmao

My after school program banned pokemon cards for no reason so pretty much everyone pretend we were illegally gambling. I think the reason was because people kept on stealing the cards

i mean it can be gambling if you try hard enough

Same...kids would trade and cry bc they found out later it was actually rare...

I don't even like kpop but this is just wholesome. Glad others get to experience something similar to how great trading cards are.

i’m watching this video as i organize pcs in my binder 😭

i was going to say the same ! i remember my friend pulling blue hour r-ver soobin and LOOSING her shit. he's her ult and that cards worth like $600-$3000 so we were both freaking out 😭

This is Exactly right

surprisingly accurate

the genders are usually reversed but ok

my grandma has one of the first 9 beanie babies. it's name is pinchers. i don't know how much it's worth or anything because it's not printed as "punchers" - an error that makes other beanie baby lobsters expensive

@@Ellie-st3wi thats awesome, i only have one from the eighties

unfortunately most beanie babies are worth nothing

That was my first thought

@@lemonworm sadly the probability of you having a rare one is so low being that it has to be a specific year and shade and condition

and so true democracy was found in the anti-authoritarian

that's already way better than the student body in our school i never once understood what the presidents and vice presidents did in our school, no public hearings, idek if the school gave them anything to do or if they were just figureheads (i mean it would make sense, our school pres was literally a gay guy, what better to scream "hey look at me, im so progressive" without actually making any changes than that)

lol so cute u will never forget that

democracy wins again

one time at lunch in 5th grade our lunch lady was like "NO MORE POKEMAN CARDS IN SCHOOL" 😂we all joked about it with her up until we graduated

could stream it on twitch? i'd tune in

@@autumn8991 yes @31:14 he says most likely he’ll open the other boxes on twitch once they arrive.

I’d also weirdly love a video of him just unboxing random boxes in the storage - it seems like there’s so much cool stuff in there

Open new digimon game too! They are even doing classic styled packs with the old art!

better? I hardly know her!

Damn, you really read between the line on that meat card.

I think it’s supposed to be like a file name. They are digital monsters after all

It's their file extension. They're all .mon files. (In actuality, it's just a holdover from Tamagotchi. Every Tamagotchi name ends with "chi" and Digimon, being a spinoff, needed an equivalent.)

@@GamingintheAM0801 til that digimon is a spinoff of tamagotchi what the fuck

@@GamingintheAM0801 DIGIMONS A SPINOFF OF TAMAGOTCHI??

This video was literally oozing with authentic 90s nostalgia… and I loved every minute of it! I think I’m gonna binge watch the “I Love the 80s” and “I Love the 90s” MTV series this weekend too.

I actually was more excited about the beanie babies, I've pulled out my old boxes of them recently (I was literally obsessed with beanie babies, played with them constantly and took them to school, did drawings, made my own TV show with them, etc) and it was such an awesome feeling playing with them with my nieces like I used to as a kid, I let some of them have a few because I wanted them to experience the joy beanie babies gave me---I did keep a few that were really special though, so back of children!

Eren Jaegar slander not allowed sorry

Digimon has a new card game that's great

just say eren

right? i would sell a kidney for one of those

Wait, is there a demand for Beanie Babies? Because my mom has a massive bin full of them in her garage.

@@antigraphophobic there isn't a huge demand like people thought however there are collectors out there! (me 👀)

i had such a sick beanie baby collection, more than 50 of them, and my mom threw them all out. i was 8.

In perfect condition with tag attached, on average a Beanie Baby sells for $5 USD today 2021. The list price is not the sell price. People can list something very high but that doesn't mean it sells for that much on average. Ik I got very sad about this when I was going to sell my Beanie Babies.

YESYESYESYESYES

I feel it though, I cry every time I talk about the end credits of Wall•e.

Mood for atla too , its just such a deserving series

Honestly I never even watched Digimon but I teared up at just the description of that scene

The charmander episode destroyed me

Poorer? I hardly know her!

@@obiwankenobi9141 Excuse me is it grammarly incorrect to say "poorer"? I swear this one always gets me on my nerves

@@voidnutella no it’s good, anything with one or two syllables get an ‘er’ added and anything else above gets ‘more’ Ex: funny (2 syllables) = funnier Ex: extraordinary (6 syllables) = more extraordinary It was a joke where ‘poorer’ sounds like ‘pour her’ so “poorer, I hardly know her!” It’s a play on words. It’s a common pun with anything that has any part that sounds like ‘her’ Ex: heater? I hardly know her! This was your English grammar lesson from Serious

You mean poorest! Lol 😂 or just way to poor? Just picking on you! 🙆🏻

hey jarvy

it’s a kurtis thing

hey bff

you have no idea how happy it makes me that you are happy:)))

I knew you'd be here!! Was expecting you feature in the vid king 😪

for my school some kid's entire binder got stolen and they got banned after that

it’s the reason you never bring an entire binder of Pokemon cards to school, you only bring one of those little pocket binders you can keep on you at all times

my elementary school banned them too cuz they wanted the kids to get physical activity instead of sitting trading cards LMAO

My primary school in aus also banned cards and card trading. It was a dark day :’(

mine had banned them for the entire week except for Fridays during second recess because 'kids weren't getting active enough during recess'

My brothers and I still have our cards binders, but my older brother had a binder filled with his first and rarest cards that got lost. Possibly a million bucks lost to the ether 😔

I didn't have any 1st edition cards but was very thankful I even got cards as a kid and still remember the Christmas my mom bought me official branded binders for my cards. I still have them as she understood what they meant to me and she's no longer here now so even if the cards somehow became worth 1mil+ I don't feel I could sell them.

@@ThexDynastxQueen don’t worry all of this kids are over exaggerating. Cards that are some are even 1$ to 2$ plus say you got a charzaird from base set. And you list it on eBay you gotta find someone crazy enough to want it

Unlucky man. I sold a 200ish basic common cards and one or two semi expensive EX for £150 last year, way more than they’re actually worth

I'm in a similar boat. Probably less cards, not as many in good condition, and not as many rare ones. So they aren't enjoying a mansion, maybe a used Prius. Congrats.

TRUEEEEE

our boy Kurtis works so hard and kicks himself too hard for it. we love you bro

Wow, you guys actually liked this style? I guess this is the new style of RU-vid videos, I've seen a lot of creators making these sorts of things these days but I find them quite boring and not as enjoyable as the comedy focused stuff where he is making lots of jokes non-stop about things that are already awkward and funny, this seemed to have a lot less of that and was also really long, so it was kind of tedious and boring for me. It is very interesting to see how people might actually be liking it, I wonder what the age difference is or what age groups tend to like this sort of thing. I come from a generation that might like more quickly paced stuff that has lots of great moments, each statement leading to the next joke and the next joke and providing a lot more entertainment in a lot less time. I've noticed even Netflix stuff and tv shows are getting long and boring and sort of serious too, its not to my taste at least, but very cool and interesting that there are some people (a lot apparently) where this is the thing they are really into. It sort of reminds me of boring podcasts I've heard even, where people are just talking about some technical thing or repeating a lot, I find it a pain really, and liked some of the older videos (even recent ones) which were shorter with a lot more jokes back to back. There were definitely jokes in here, but compared to some of the other videos, this seemed less funny as frequently as those. You wrote a nice comment though, he seemed to put a ton of work into this one for sure, but I wonder if he can actually manage to put in less work and end up less burned out with better results with one of the more comedy focused short commentary things rather than the documentary journey style types, that also cost him a ton of money in this case as well.

i agree!!

@@aFoxyFox. are you good bro 😭

YESS!! i was thinking this too

Actually there aren't many expensive beanie babies. And most of them are due to tag errors

They don’t sell for much

IKR quite ironic

Actually, I heard somewhere that they’re in fact mostly worth nothing! Literal pennies T__T

ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-m6mdKTJ_O2Q.html . .

right

I was just thinking about this. I don't know anything about Pokemon, nor have I ever been interested in it, but Kurtis's video was very entertaining, and not once did I feel excluded from the fun. He's very inclusive.

Nice name

yess the same thing happened at my school because of all the crying 😭

Same happened at my primary school but with Beyblade

@@solomonfrogge8597 And with Cogos

Lol ah the innocence

And now Target stopped selling them because there was dangerous drama between adults trying to buy them 😂

😮 they would no longer be my friends. You don’t come back from that type of betrayal.

Man imagine him getting to Tamers, he'd be bawling from how depressing that show gets.

@@cassie7707 oh sad to hear that but the weren't rude tho. Have a good day. 😀

GUYS they could also be talking about the pokemon cards 😭

YEEEESSSS

that’s actually really good advice

Yeah! When he was looking at the prices on eBay I was thinking about how anyone can list something for any price they want on there- whether someone is actually willing to pay that price is the kicker

Oh, good advice

i would DIE omfgm

this comment just killed me. call my family, they need to start making funeral arrangements.

You know how you’re mad at yourself for that? Yeah, I’m just as mad

I- this is so sad:") omg

As someone who kept many old pokemon cards of my own as I grew up, this comment hurt me deeply

This is why I still have mine. I'm Gen Z so the majority of mine are from the 2000s era. But hopefully in the future when I'm older they'll be worth a lot.

I had a binder full of first editions. I try not to think about it. Lol.

I have an entire binder except most of them are ruined because my room flooded and they got caught in that flood so I doubt they'd sell at all (I had over a thousand and the flood cut that to over half)

Did she sold 1 card for $10 and since he bought 2000+, She received $20,000-ish? Or did she sold the whole 2000+ for $10?

Damn what an uncle douche!

Ikr the beanie babies is where the real money could be

@Cassidy Reefhuis ahaha thank you!

I loved beanie babies I called them beanie boos though. Idk if that’s something different or not… Wait never mind I know the difference

@Cassidy Reefhuis thank you! You too friend!!

For some reason I hope that beanie babies are not worth money one day because I loved them all and played with them so much as a kid (doing what they were intended for) that I don't have any in decent condition and would be depressed knowing if I hadn't enjoyed them in my childhood and just kept them in a plastic box I could make money off of them today.
