I believe this dude inherited money. Its the only explanation for this guy!
Or watch the video and find out, I explain how I buy comics lol
You obviously haven't watched many of his videos. He hustles hard to collect what he wants.
@@sirblanks Thank you, you get it. Work hard play hard!
@@pop-comics I've collected my whole life. When I change directions with my collection I sell what I don't want to get what I want. That's the name of the game.
Very healthy way to collect, and it lets you sculpt your collection into a better bigger stronger collection.
would be really interested if you could do a follow-up in a few weeks detailing which of these books you are actually able to re-sell and for how much, would be helpful research!
Slowly selling, not going to be fast but I have sold around $200 so far
Man love the books, But the mere fact you knew 23 was Mattingly and MJ is icing on the cake
Yup 2 of my favorites!
@pop-comics Mine too along with Marino my top 3
So you're the person to keep out. Bidding me on those things that day. Wish I had big pockets like yours.
Just got to work on a way to sell the ones you don't want so you can keep the machine running. They run these mystery packs all the time, so not sure we were in the same show or not. Just one out of dozen they do a month.
I bought a $1000 mystery box from TSMB on whatnot a few years back when I was actively selling on the platform mainly to resell. I got a random 100 of their exclusives and then 3 “free” wall books that were my choice. One of the wall books I chose was a Batman 423 1st print cgc 9.4 (at the time it was a $400 book) I had it pressed and signed by McFarlane at his last signing. It came back a 9.8 white pages and I sold it this year for $3750. I probably ended up getting $5-6000 in return before fees for all the books but the Batman 423 is really what made the deal a home run.
Fantastic, sounds like you got an amazing deal on their box.
I bought one mystery comic on Whatnot for $8 and got an Arak #40. I will never do that again.
Yikes that one sounds terrible.
This is such a great video, I love these comic mystery packs. You are so brave to gamble like this.
They are super fun, but also I feel more like a card counter on them lol so does not feel like gambling if I know how the game works and can beat the odds well. Otherwise it would be too risky.
@@pop-comics yeah...clearly those mystery box guys are idiots! They are losing big bucks to you (you who clearly can't multiply or divide)!
Its their own exclusives, they pay half cover price to buy them from Marvel. Its a way for them to move books, its similar to a wholesale pricing. Also have no idea what you are talking about on my math skills lol
Could’ve spent that same money on one of the good streams and got a bunch of vintage stuff that won’t immediately lose value instead of a bunch of variants of variants that no one wants. ASM 252 and Secret Wars 8 would have been half what you spent.
I have lots of that in the pc already do not looking for it.
If so am being fair comic collecting in my time growing up in the 80s and 90s is a far different game than what’s happening today. I have always led with the idea that you should buy what you like and it seems the gentlemen in the video loves his books so that’s what really matters and I am happy for him. To your point however these variant and virgin covers are a artificiality inflated market with material that has historically shown to be very volatile. Outside of a modern key, barely any of those books shown would be a solid financial investment. @craixe1 I have to agree with your statement. The smart money is only in vintage.
Good books! Always fun to play these blind bags especially if youre getting good books like these!
Yeah its super fun for me, especially if you are getting the ceiling packs!
So many awesome covers! Such a fun video! 👍🏻 😃
Glad you enjoyed! Definitely tons of fun covers!
Fun video, the mystery packs are very cool!
Thank you 🤗 They are a ton of fun.
Always cool too see these mystery packs ❤
They are fun, got to take some time to sell off the ones I dont need then I will try again haha
Such a great video Sean
Thank you, Glad you enjoyed it
The Gwendy Adam Hughes cover was at 37:29 ... Packet 37....!!
Its #1 from the series and it goes for about $10-$15
Yes It's Dell'otto
Fantastic, thanks for confirming.
Would’ve been cool if you cut the bags open and revealed what was inside on camera instead of opening them ahead of time, takes all the excitement out of it for the viewer.
They open them on the stream, I would like to figure out a way to film the stream while buying them that would be fun.
that Eniac #1 at the end was a 2nd print but very cool book nonetheless
Still cool!
Love the video! Do you have a weekly pull list and keep up with reading current books too or just a collector?
I don;t because 98% of comics become dollar bin books and I don't read them fast enough. So I just wait and buy the books I want down the road for cheap. Right now most of my reading is Manga, I get a ton more joy out of it then US comics.
Hi Sean,
really great covers in those packs. I love the the Black Cat cover from pack 38. can you tell me which artist did this cover?
Mike Choi cover, unknown comics exclusive. It really is a beautiful cover.
Fun to live vicariously through your vid. Too much Star Warts space STIs for me and not enough DC... but great vid w the mystery packs.
Happy you enjoy the video, I have others with lots of DC.
I like that you break down your thought process, even if I don't like to bid on these - I like to hear what others approach them. I would be interested in a follow up video at some point if you are able to break even, your process, and how long it actually took to do so.
Yes I like to share how I go about things, might help people learn a few things or at least appreciate or understand how I do things. Selling them will take time, I am not expecting a quick flip. Its been a year or so since the last time I bought a bunch of packs, I have sold a ton. I also traded away something like $4K retail for 1000s of cheap 1990s Newstand comics from my Friend Street Side Anthony. So it was a value uptrade for me (He gave me something like 12K comics) and he got pricier comics he could bring to conventions etc. For me my bread and butter is $2-$4 comics. Especially Spider-Man comics. Those comics from the trade will take me years maybe even 10 years to sell. But I expect them to make me $50-$100 a month for a long time.
I have mixed feeling regarding mystery packs. It’s very exciting but not the most efficient way of collecting. These specific packs are not my interest, but all the power to you if it’s something you’ve been enjoying.
Depends on what the packs are, some places make great packs and others just have junk packs.
You wanna beat the odds and don't. Hey, have fun with that free money bro. Don't expect any back lol.
Beat the odds and already have half the money back. I am not worried.
Cool pickups Jason 😃
I agree!
Over all you did damn good Sean,you paid up but you won pretty good !? Fortune favours the brave my friend,nice one !!! I think my overall favourite was the goblin queen on the throne on the white background,that was a stunner
The Goblin Queen cover is a stunner.
I bought one pack from them before for 23$ i sold 3 made my money back and gave the others away because i don't really like anything not silver or gold age but it was fun
Super cool, there is value in them just have to get them at the right price.
Wow...
I like Ninja Funk with the cat cover! 😸
They are cute covers.
Really enjoy buying comics off whatnot but it can add up quick
Definitely, I feel like I find deals that beat ebay all the time on what not but they add up so fast it really is too easy to spend too much.
Heck Yeah! Me too, my guy! haha Take it from me, DO NOT get into ripping sealed sports or non-sports trading cards. It is an identical RUSH that you get when you rip those Mystery Packs when a GP is attached to it. Nice video, Pop!
No I sell packs of cards and or hold sealed boxes. You loose ripping packs overall. In fact I don't really collect cards, have been selling them since high school in the early 1990s. In college I bought and sold Sports cards to earn cash. I would ride my bike from store to store trying to buy the chase packs out of score boxes (3rd pack down middle row) or see insert packs in Donruss boxes etc. Although I did buy the top 4 packs of any Marvel Series 1 box I found back then. The top 4 always had the Holograms. I like these packs, mostly because I can really beat the odds knowing how they run the game.
Cool
Awesome
Thanks :)
Very cool! I bought a bunch of packs months ago or so ago. I think I ended up with a couple graded and a few virgin packs.
Sweet sounds like you got a few hits which is always fun.
That Darth Vader is such a beautiful cover! I must have it haha
It is a nice cover.
@@pop-comics do you know what year and issue it is?
@@KorribanHideout let me know the time in the video I will figure it out
18:11 I think this was the third one you pulled lol
2023 Star Wars Darth Vader Black White and Red #1 Andrews variant. Its an Unknown comics exclusive.
I just realized I had my second account logged in. I was wondering how come I wasn’t getting notifications from any of your channels. 😅. Commenting before watching the video, so good luck on the pulls🎉.
Just finished the video. Awesome pulls, although they weren’t mystery for you at the time of filming but they were for us. So many beautiful covers, crazy how many you got for how much you paid and so many dupes to help pay for it all. Guest appearance at the end was a cool addition, would be cool to meet more folks in the community through your videos. 🫶🏻
The packs are super fun for me, a bit of work to sell off the duplicates but at the end of the day I am happy with them. Super nice to see a comment from you as well. I was just thinking the other day about you, how have you been and what you were up to.
Thank god you like ninja funk because I don’t see how that was a win. Those books graded and signed in 9.8 don’t even sale on eBay. They are worse than a Turok 1
There is a lot of people trying to dump them now so the value is really low. But I enjoy them so its one reason I buy the lots. If you remove them from that pack though the rest of the books in the pack are easily $200+ on ebay so still a win in my book.
Hi all
Greetings!
What comic app do you use while you are digging for back issues
I usually just use my brain. If I need to look up a value I use the ebay app you can take a photo with it and select completed listings to see what it sold for. I also sometimes use the hip app
loooool. Gambling is not allowed on Whatnot. So.......good luck out there.
I heard something about that, did they just ban the mystery packs?
Oh man, now you’re going to need to change your whatnot name. People are going to be in there watching which ones you bid on. 😂
Its all good, I don't go too crazy for these that often. But its a blast when I do.
You'd probably be better off going directly to unknown for these exclusives since they will wholesale out to pretty much anyone with money. I'm not sure how much value those cates, roy thomas or frank millers wlll have later on since Torpedo and others like tsmb get them to sign literally thousands of books. Cates signature series slabs usually go for 20-40 on their streams
Your right Wholesale would probably be better if I was just buying to resell. But I wanted to buy the packs to make the video which is the reason for buying them. Breaking even is just a means to pay for the packs in the video etc. The more crazy videos I can do with 0 overall costs works best for me. I did sell the duplicate signed Cates Slab for $50 within hours of putting it out for sale so I am not worried about it. It costs more to get graded slabs from CGC, so I mostly assume they are auctioning those off at a loss to recover some costs.
@@pop-comics i'd be interested in a video where you try to get as many slabs for under $25. Shipping would probably add too much to the costs though. seeing what quality of comics you'd be able to buy would be fun to see.
I used to have a ton of fun buying these mystery packs on whatnot. I have ALOT of Ninja Funk and White Widow but I dont collect them. Hit me up if you want to trade or buy.
I have so many of the more common ones, not really looking for them unless its a rareish issue I need.
Question: What would be the value on the Gwen Stacy cover? Don't recall whether it had a cover logo or a virgin one....!! It was a Dodson cover...!!
At what minute was the cover? I did not remember a dodson one. Or did you mean the Adam Hughs virgin variant? Looks like it would cost $10-$15 on ebay.
Just catching up on what I missed...!!
Hope you enjoyed it!
Hey Sean! 😁
Greetings!
It is adorable and sad that this guy is whole-heartedly convinced that he is going to be able to sell off all those dupes to get close to break even.
Seriously... logically. If this "site" or "distributor" is bundling this many duplicate issues in mystery packs and "winning" packs. How do you create the leap in logic that people will buy them from you?
I too partook in TSMB during three early days of the pandemic when I actually had money and time to get back into the hobby, but it only took me about 3 months and $400 to realize the shit they are filling packs with are modern variant bullshit they couldn't sell in their shop or through their site.
I still have a box full of spidey booth box virgin comics that I can't get $3/ea out of.
I have done it twice before, it makes for fun content. Not trying to make a profit, just cover the cost of the packs to keep the ones I want to keep. Yes it takes a while but I have a physical shop so issues sell slowly over time.
Wow🎉
Always good content but that ninja funk stuff is trash nobody wants it and the story was garbage . They are obviously dumping trash books . I have bought from them before and there values are way over valued .
I like it, but as I said the Ninja Funk is kinda just extra in those packs. The real value was the other books. Its their own published books so it would be like buying a Marvel box and getting Marvel books. Or Buying from DC and getting DC books.
That's crazy! No, seriously, get help! 😃
Lol It seems crazy but I have done it before and covered the cost selling what I did not want. Takes a while but lets me add lots of cool modern comics for free to the PC with a little bit of work
Did you close ur shop
No its still open.
Are those DARKHAWK issues new tales or reprints from the '90s?
New issues that came out in 2022 i believe.
Geez i hope you made most of your money back with all these dang commercials. Sorry for the complaining, but FK, theres ads every dam 3 minutes.
RUclips seems to want to post more advertising lately and also blocking ad blockers. I think they are trying to get more folks to pay for their premium service which is ad free.
So, pretty average, bordering on boring?
I had fun lol
So Sean are you completely done with Funko pops
Still selling but not really buying. Not until the market picks up again.
Are you looking for Ninja funk? HIT ME UP.
Not really looking to pay for them, just like getting them as an extra bonus when I am buying other things of value.
@pop-comics yeahhhhhhh. Community calls it Ninja Junk. I don't sell them or involve them in any of my shows due to the rep. it's equal to a low-grade Archie Comic to most folks.
Who's the guy at the end of the video....
My friend Jason. He recently moved from NYC to Atlanta, so we decided to start adding some bonus hauls from him into the videos as a way to keep in touch.
@@pop-comics okay 👍
Look you want to spend that kind of money send me 1500, save a hundred bucks and I will send you a much better mystery box then those.
Have no idea what is in your mystery boxes, I will have to pass. I don't like to gamble, I like to know what I am getting into. Would be interesting to see which 8-9 Signed slabs you would include though.
@@pop-comics Its a mystery!
