Bruh you don't even get that if you get a million views on a video..just Google views to money. Obviously sponsors matter too but..that number you threw out is way off for this channel lol
The really nice thing about this series is that it works as a warning for the people who always harp about holding yugioh cards for stonks. Also as someone who enjoys data analysis, this is nice fun. Don't go back to accounting Phil!
The thing I really like about ruxin is that he sacrifices his bank account for our entertainment. also whether it’s in his videos or in the comment sections to his videos, there is no toxicity to be found
It'd be cool to see a series like this but you're buying vintage sets and seeing how they do over time. For example buying all the 1st edition secret rares in original duel monsters in NM and seeing over time which ones rise or go down. Can do the same with GX era, 5DS etc
This series will be very informative as the years go on and is great evidence to show how prices move. Very entertaining, keep it up, and I hope you get better wins on it soon!
To can’t stop this series! This is always my favourite to watch on your channel! It’s not supposed to make financial sense and that’s why I love it! EMBRACE THE CHAOS! 😈
I love following this series. Reminds me why it's fun to collect. But hard to be a business. Really have to find those gems on the market to make a profit on tcg
This is my favorite series and will always tune it for it. If we wanted to get serious about profit would probably have to avoid meme picks or have a small budget for risk/meme. The portfolio is too young to truly predict which cards will become worthy investments.
I think this is super cool, maybe continuing by looking at like 3-4 older formats that are being played, and buying cards for that to see how older formats get more popular, and how Konami maybe one day decides to help reprint older format cards
Honestly, I think you gotta kaibosh the “letting chat pick” stuff. Might take some more researching and speculation of reprint sets, but it still holds some value.
We should continue this series as a fun exercise to prove how wild the yugioh markets are and how Konami will always reprint into oblivion the value cards.
I think this series is amazing BUT it need more rules like nothing newer than 5 years old (taking example from 1st Movement Solo a 50cent Card from 2015 is now worth 30x times that for just a super), no S tier rarity (starlight,qcr,ulti,ghost), Maybe take a main set from (x) year and buy a certain quantity of the most iconic card of that set that has not gotten a reprint yet? idk just an idea. Love the video
We bought Starlight Lyna the Light Charmer Lustrous because of the Lightsworn Support, that is why it was over 300$ when we bought it. Little did we know, it was Punishment Dragon who shot up in value
I think we can continue this series but with some changes - you'd need to buy low and add the sell high component. Like for example droll QCR is low right now if you buy that and sell later when fiendsmith is a thing, you probably could make money! Holding it is a rough time!
Maybe instead of buying and holding, u make a series where you play the card stonk market and you are constantly buying and selling and we see how big the profit margin can be
Thats so crazy about your JD getting lost in the mail. I had the same thing happened to me in 2021 it eventually did show up like months later but I think you should get some decent old school cards in your next $1000 tcgplayer round!
Man, I agree. It's getting harder and harder to make a positive investment into yugioh. Re prints are dropping values, and the collector population is dropping, in my opinion. But there could be many other factors but I think those are the 2 main reasons. It's sad that even vintage is losing its value.
A lot of people are vicariously living their Yugioh purchasing wishes through yourself. Although it's painful for you Rux it would suck to see this series go. Would totally understand if you stop the series however 😂
I think if you're going to do this again I think maybe avoid single card prices, but maybe do a wholly sealed attempt. Pick the sets you think might age well from the last year. Perhaps the past sets you think might get a boom from future support coming out. Etc
I remember watching the very first episode of this. It really just has been a downward spiral it feels like lol. Partially due to twitch chat and some troll buys. Hanging in there though.
I’ll take this as a sign, have like 3 boxes or so of Terminal on it way and wanted to buy a phantom but don’t wanna pay and then boom it drops crazy in price
With yugioh going at the reprint direction, it's definitely better for players but worse for collectors. If only they did products like pokemon where it's cheap as a player but still profitable as collectors
I’d be really concerned about continuing this series, especially if The monetizing of the videos isn’t helping to compensate a lot of the balance. There are so many reprints & especially now with the rarity collections, the risk of cards being reprinted & dropping in prize is pretty high right now.
I will say from a “data & statistics” perspective, this is a very fascinating look at the rise & fall of investments in yugioh. I always look forward to seeing the videos, just to see the analysis
Additional to the individual cards you should buy boxes... As you see those gain value over the time.... If you continue, just as you said, just five years and see a new buy strategy.
I think the market will take a possessive shift soon as the 25th anniversary end and we get back to normal product and not being flooded by high rarity cards. Now that its at the lowest its probably time to invest. Let hope the market recovers
LP is not NM, so if sellers lie about the condition you have to hold them accountable and demand a refund and report the seller. If you bought NM, it’s not accurate to track LP prices for this series. Love your content, just wanted to share my take and help your algorithm 😂
You made a Mistake.. you typed 9.96$ instead of 59.96$ for the Red-Eyes Flare Metal Dragon :D
Ruxin update the red eyes lol
Saw that too 😊
Ruxin, this is the 5th time youve shown "ive spent 1000 dollars in TCGPlayer" in class
CHAT HE JUST NEVER LEARNS!!
against RDC u better bring the A game when sparking comes out
He is sacrificing his bank account for our enjoyment. Respect.
This video probably makes him $10,000…….😅
Not really. He does it for fun, the videos pay for it anyway.
Bruh you don't even get that if you get a million views on a video..just Google views to money. Obviously sponsors matter too but..that number you threw out is way off for this channel lol
I legitimately think the only way you could continue the series without breaking the bank account is by not letting chat pick the investments 😂
The really nice thing about this series is that it works as a warning for the people who always harp about holding yugioh cards for stonks.
Also as someone who enjoys data analysis, this is nice fun. Don't go back to accounting Phil!
Rux is on that RUclips grind the upload schedule goes crazy. Thanks for the entertainment man.
1220 days in a row!
The thing I really like about ruxin is that he sacrifices his bank account for our entertainment. also whether it’s in his videos or in the comment sections to his videos, there is no toxicity to be found
Welcome to another episode of Ruxin suffers. 😂
Fr tho

Ruxin, you said for red eyes 59.96 but wrote 9.96 at 3:45😂 I just saved you 50 dollars on your prophet and loss margin.
To can’t stop this series! This is always my favourite to watch on your channel! It’s not supposed to make financial sense and that’s why I love it! EMBRACE THE CHAOS! 😈
I love following this series. Reminds me why it's fun to collect. But hard to be a business. Really have to find those gems on the market to make a profit on tcg
Yeah prices are like a rollercoaster majority of the time
We are just in a bad market right now, things will go up eventually. Problem is people don't have the patience. You have to buy it and forget it.
I actually really love this series! It's fascinating seeing the market for cards progress throughout the years.
Continue the series, the losses are worth the entertainment😂
I always love this series! Reminding people to buy responsibly and not to crumble under the hype of certain cards or new sets.
Please never stop this series! One of my favorites
This is my favorite series and will always tune it for it. If we wanted to get serious about profit would probably have to avoid meme picks or have a small budget for risk/meme. The portfolio is too young to truly predict which cards will become worthy investments.

Imma be honest, that magia joke at the beginning made me laugh so hard😂
The $1000 Tcgplayer series is one of my favorites. Hope you keep doing it in the future!
I really enjoy these videos. I’m glad that you keep doing a new one every year
Grabbed a QCR snatch steal from you few days ago. Adding it to my QCR old school card collection i started. Thanks man
Honestly, I think you gotta kaibosh the “letting chat pick” stuff. Might take some more researching and speculation of reprint sets, but it still holds some value.
That’s so damn weird. I was just thinking about “I spent $1,000 on TCGplayer” Ruxin videos and going back to watch ones I didn’t see lmgfaooo.
We should continue this series as a fun exercise to prove how wild the yugioh markets are and how Konami will always reprint into oblivion the value cards.
I like the series but the cards the chat gets to choose are always destined to lose $ lol
I think this series is amazing BUT it need more rules like nothing newer than 5 years old (taking example from 1st Movement Solo a 50cent Card from 2015 is now worth 30x times that for just a super), no S tier rarity (starlight,qcr,ulti,ghost), Maybe take a main set from (x) year and buy a certain quantity of the most iconic card of that set that has not gotten a reprint yet? idk just an idea. Love the video
I like this series because its interesting how some things go up and some go down, this year wasn't that bad considering both RA01 and RA02
I love this series but I feel bad for Ruxin sacrificing his bank account for these cards! 😂
We bought Starlight Lyna the Light Charmer Lustrous because of the Lightsworn Support, that is why it was over 300$ when we bought it. Little did we know, it was Punishment Dragon who shot up in value

Wow thats super rough sorry rux, i geuss investing in modern yugioh isn't the move..who knew lol
The intro was hilarious! I'm sad for ruxin of course but I laughed very hard
this series is awesome. Love the breakdown of pricing over time.
Letting chat decide is fun but maybe like a poll is better than just one person deciding at a time
Tcg shopping class. Should be a class subject XD. None the less I love the entertainment keep it up RUXIN!
Alternatively, this video could be titled
“How to get tax breaks with losses on Yugioh!”
You must continue the series. Every great gambler quits right before he hits big.
Love this series. I feel your pain when looking at the prices of cards. Sometimes those down prices hit hard.
Maybe instead of buying and holding, u make a series where you play the card stonk market and you are constantly buying and selling and we see how big the profit margin can be
Colossal Fighter price down feels bad. Still owning feels good. You have a brave spirit.
I wouldn’t mind having like a poll for what ruxin should invest in but also have a separate list of ones he thinks will be better of an investment
I think you should do a vid with sealed product rather than singles if you’re gonna do an “investing” series haha
Well, I love the data behind this video and I found it interesting. The best thing to do is buy what you like
Fun series to watch to see where the card prices go in the next few years
>looks at the video title
Oh this is going to be painful. Godspeed Ruxin
Would be interesting to see some stats for like OG cards, GX cards, meta cards and so on. You can do a lot with this data(:
I don’t know how you can make money on these series. This is like the investment version of Cimo’s MD masochist
Thats so crazy about your JD getting lost in the mail. I had the same thing happened to me in 2021 it eventually did show up like months later but I think you should get some decent old school cards in your next $1000 tcgplayer round!
It was a big mistake buying on tcg player. EBay is better trying to get that 50$ for my agents deck
I mean you don’t have to continue the series but man I love seeing all the cards you get!
Man, I agree. It's getting harder and harder to make a positive investment into yugioh. Re prints are dropping values, and the collector population is dropping, in my opinion. But there could be many other factors but I think those are the 2 main reasons. It's sad that even vintage is losing its value.
You suffer so we don't have to 😂 truly a hero
99% of gamblers give up before winning big. Hope you continue this for a while!
This series is crazy! Nice vid man
Chopping trees on osrs on the side always increases my productivity
I love your videos man started my Yugioh card collection and so happy I found your channel 🫶🏼
This is the REAL masochist series
I like seeing the data on how the market changes over time. Crazy how much money the world spends on shiny cardboard. Myself included. lol
A lot of people are vicariously living their Yugioh purchasing wishes through yourself. Although it's painful for you Rux it would suck to see this series go. Would totally understand if you stop the series however 😂
I binged the channel a bit today, have some algo boostage with this comment
One of my favourite series, excited to watch
I agree
same I love the concept and series. I know it takes time and effort but I would not mind another one of these where Ruxin picks some cards again.
Ruxin on the red eyes flare ghost rare you put $9 instead of $59 just letting you know
I think you will be able to keep this series Ruxin!
I think if you're going to do this again I think maybe avoid single card prices, but maybe do a wholly sealed attempt. Pick the sets you think might age well from the last year. Perhaps the past sets you think might get a boom from future support coming out. Etc
Great pick. We need more. I am GLAD you selected GREAT cards. More more more. This serious is the BEST. Glad you picked good card. This rules.
Thanks for doing this series. Curious the value in 5 year as well.
I remember at the time you made the 1st video, I was thinking it will be so cool to see how much money ruxin makes off this 🥶
It's shocking how bad the Yu-Gi-Oh market has been doing
I remember watching the very first episode of this. It really just has been a downward spiral it feels like lol. Partially due to twitch chat and some troll buys. Hanging in there though.
I love this series! Please continue 😊
Next time do sealed product, you'll at least have a chance 😂
I love your content but often feel awful at the expense you go through for us, so thank you rux youre an absolute legend 🎉
I’ll take this as a sign, have like 3 boxes or so of Terminal on it way and wanted to buy a phantom but don’t wanna pay and then boom it drops crazy in price

The losses are just golden comedy😂😭
Continue!! Stay the course and stay strong.
Continue with this series next year...? Of course you should! :P
Might be easier to hyperlink the spreadsheet for future updates
Additional to the individual cards you should buy boxes... As you see those gain value over the time.... If you continue, just as you said, just five years and see a new buy strategy.
Best series to follow!
I think the market will take a possessive shift soon as the 25th anniversary end and we get back to normal product and not being flooded by high rarity cards. Now that its at the lowest its probably time to invest. Let hope the market recovers
Crazy how quickly the prices fluctuate
...I feel like he regrets this everytime he spends 1k dollars
Would you consider doing a 500 yugioh 500 pokemon for next year? Would be interesting to compare
Thank you for including a spreadsheet, i love data
I love watching Ruxin make bad financial decisions.
"Regret it more and more" it's alright Rux 😅
Good luck in next one, maybe just do more sealed stuff and Edison
LP is not NM, so if sellers lie about the condition you have to hold them accountable and demand a refund and report the seller. If you bought NM, it’s not accurate to track LP prices for this series. Love your content, just wanted to share my take and help your algorithm 😂
4:14 gotta fix that red eyes, you missed out on $50 monies
I think we should its fun for us but like killing your bank LMAO
Ruxin what's the description for Nekogal#1? 🤔
WoW, Ruxin never learns from past 🤣
Add the Time Value of Money … you’re losing super bad 😂
First time commenting going to watch video now im sure you will make up that 1k in no time cause the heart of the cards is on your side 🙂
I enjoy watching others spend money on things I can’t afford lol, not really but it’s entertaining to say the least
