I am a pure buyer at this point. Working on several SA runs. Haven’t sold anything in years, if not a decade or two. That being said, I like how Gem has done it. I’m not sure if there is anyone better on RUclips or anywhere else right now who’s as honest and open about how he has got the things he’s acquired and what it took to get them. He gives you the blueprint on how to work yourself up to buying the more expensive books and other items that may seem daunting and nigh impossible to get. It isn’t too hard to do it if you have the desire and ability.
Agreed
That’s why his channel is growing so fast I agree
i appreciate that... the last line sums it up the most for me. that's exactly how i look at it
i get too attached to things so ill never be able to make the hobby fund itself :(
The Uncanny Mike I feel you Mike. That’s all me.
The Uncanny Mike I’m the same way. I eventually found some things I didn’t mind selling so I sell them to help me fund it.
saaaaameee
The Uncanny Mike 100% uncanny mike
Shady same here
I came to this channel as a pure statue collector. Now i'm collecting comics and reading more. You are contagious!
I’m in the process of flipping my way to an AF 15. I’m still a longs way away but I’m loving the journey.
My dad told me he had all those keys when they were first released but my grandma gave them to some kid down the block after my dad moved out 😆
that sucks
X-celsior!!! Spiderman has ALWAYS been, and ALWAYS will be my favorite
Gem you're an absolute G man!!! The way you collect makes comic collecting such a fun hobby!!! Literally the dopest channel out there!!!
This is one of those videos I've been waiting on for a looong time. Thanks for the info!
It's so hard to let go of some slabs even when you have a grail you're working towards. Videos like this definitely help prioritize why you're collecting in the first place. Loving the content and stay safe!
You are certainly not the only one to do this best way to get the stuff you want without burning huge holes in your pockets. Its all about the hustle.
HOUSE OF PAIN, LEFT YOU ALOT MONEY. THEN YOUR SOLO CAREER BLEW ONCE. A HUSTLER, ALWAYS A HUSTLER COOL VIDEO.💎👊🏽
Will you explain what you mean please I don't know that much about his background but I'm curious
@@kdan4241 HI, THAT IS JUST A JOKE. HE A REGULAR GUY. HE IS REALY COOL PEOPLE.
@@edwindiaz8257 thank you for answering lol I saw you had 19 likes so I thought maybe everyone knew something I didn't 😂 sorry I'm new to this channel
I'm trying this approach to getting so milestones and key issues. Glad to hear it's worked for someone
Your blooper reel at the end of your videos is hilarious!!!!
I've posted so many comments about that Thanos statue XD and I won't stop until that livestream!!
Like the origin story. I always like to look back in time. Great video.
Thanks. Been going through my collection, and ready to start collecting again. Great videos!
The outtakes are so funny!! Major upgrade from the old Gem Empire
I really enjoy these video where you talking about getting started and how your collection has evolved though the years.
That’s an awesome way to go get started. Thanks for keeping your Channel going.
My first slab was CGC SS TWD custom label #115. i still remember how excited i was when it arrived. Thank you for sharing your experience. Stay safe and minty fresh!
Thank you GEM! Your collecting tips have greatly helped and guided the comic book and collecting community! Always stayin Minty Fresh! Cheers!
Thanks Gem for the story and I actually enjoyed it. It is what I do myself, put runs together and resell them for that 1 grail book! Glad I am not the only one who does this.
I admire your ability to just part ways with something you have worked for a lot, and then turn it into something even more amazing
Your outtakes at the end were hilarious! Love your channel and much respect to all the work that you put into it, great job!
huge s/o to Gem & Comic Tom, you guys have really helped me appreciate my collection so much more & how to get more bang for my buck! Love the channels!
Awesome video man. Just got back into collecting last year after being out about 15 years. I find your content extremely helpful understanding how to collect. Thank you.
You do a great job of making diverse videos that don't feel random, and they're always top quality. You guys have a great day
Great content. I hang onto everything feeling I'm going to let something go that I still wish I had instead of looking what I could have. This is my first time watching one of your videos. I look forward to seeing more.
Just getting back into collecting. Thanks for sharing your experiences.
Awesome video thanks for sharing. I just got myself a copy of AF-15 after many years of collecting!
Love these videos about how you built your empire. Definitely my favorite! Also dig the bloopers at the end! 🤙
Really appreciated this video! Love the “hobby should fund itself” mentality
Thank's for sharing your experience! That will help me since I started collecting recently! Great video Props!
I need to start collecting like you Gem! Thank you for the video!
Awesome video my man! I have also bought things sold them off to buy something a little more expensive gotta keep upgrading!
Wow..that's a cool timeline of re-investing. You've had some classic milestones pass through your hands. 👍
Did the smart thing and used the hobby to continue collecting towards your grail. New collectors should definitely watch this video.
This video still hits the nail on the head. Great advice and congrats on reaching your goal back then!
Thanks for the history lesson of how you started in this hobby. I give you a lot of credit on how u would chase down comics and eventually flip them to buy something else.
I think I'm going to use this strategy for my grail books as well.
Great vids! I love seing behind the curtain of the Gempire!
Appreciate the video bro. Lots of valuable info 4 anybody doing or trying 2 do the same thing. U have a collection that any comic book geek would b envious of. Hope u and ur fam is staying safe and healthy. 1 luv bro
Awesome video. Great idea on purchasing Amazing Fantasy 15. Will have to work on that.
Great blue print..on the hustle..loving the outtakes..lol
I love comics! Thanks for all the tips Gem!
Thanks for the info Gem! I am also looking for AF 15 amongst other grails so thank you for a road map. I do have some expensive books that I will probably send to CGC to increase their value. Stay safe and be well!👍🏿👍🏿
Great advice. Love you vids. Keep up the good work during this quarantine time.
Enjoyed your journey to AF 15....thanks for sharing
Awesome dude, love this insight. Will definitely be flipping some of my collection that I’ve been able to sort through during this lockdown.
Thanks for telling your story, it's interesting the way your interests evolved
Loved this video, I’m building my collection right now, trying to get an AF15 too later on !
I started collecting comic books because of your videos. Thanks for this video. You have great info to share, keep it up.
Gem, thanks. Always awesome in how you share! Looking fwd to see you get to 75k. Well deserved bro.
Just started collecting the CGC slabs. Finding it difficult to let go some of my old items, but know its necessary to fund the hobby!
Great information, thank you sir, been 25 years since I collected and recently got back into the hobby.
Great insight into how you view the hobby and amassed an amazing collection
Great vid. Just getting back into it and your really putting out great comment that will help me get a plan going
Those comics hung just below the ceiling as a border almost is pretty cool decoration.
Gem Mint Origin story! Thanks for sharing.
What a great video ! Gem 💎 your so smart in this collectable game man!!!
This is a great rundown! I’ve considered selling weekly completed runs and such as well. Definitely think a hobby should fund itself when possible.
Damn your my inspiration I’m 18 and been collecting for a bout a year now always the youngest in the comic shop and I love it and always learning more and more about collecting but your videos always catch me up fast
I got into collecting a few years ago. Really helpful to hear you say you can flip a whole collection to get that next big thing. I have a hard time letting go but if the next goal is a grail then why not? Thanks Gem
Great insight in how it all started. Keep the videos coming.
Need more bloopers😂😂
Lots of helpful info my brother! Thanks Gem 💎 Mint!!
ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO GEMINT! I like this video because I just recently got back into my favorite hobby, and to me, you had the right idea. Gives me alot to think about moving forward. i just wish the comic book industry wasn't in such bad shape right now. But still a great video, and that's why I like the videos you do cause you can learn a lot from your experiences as a collector. I hope you keep doing more videos like this! THUMBS UP!
That is a nice way, for some of my key issues I use to trade key issues for older ones.
Smart! I dig the knowledge dropped. Much appreciated
Inspiring video, def will watch this again and again!
Very interesting insight. Thanks for sharing! Those bloopers LMAO!
Great video - I like hearing the thought process behind your purchases.
Great video I like how you were truthful and always are!!!! Thanks for the info 👍🏼👍🏼💪🏼
Love these types of videos. I don't know if I'd be able to do this myself since I'm not as knowledgeable in the comic game as I could be since I only got back into them the past year or so. You get a lot of respect from me tho for managing to grow your collection like this and it's dope to know it worked out for someone. Keep doing what you do Gem, love the channel and love seeing the community grow so fast!
That was very helpful - AF 15 will always be my grail to get!
I've recently started following you and am really inspired by your style of collecting. I've been collecting all my life but never really did any trading. Now, I'm ready to start and have been learning a lot from you and Comictom101. Thanks!!
Great tips on getting those big books. Can't wait to get my AF book.✌
Wow that's cool, such drive is inspiring.
Great video, just found your channel!!! I just got into collecting CGC graded comics!!! I'm excited to build a respectable collection!!!
Great video! I think I got the collection bug in me. So great to discover your channel!
I love those bloopers at the end lol.
Cool to see your old set up!
Love this story taught me alot about getting big key issues
Awesome 2 see how u built your Empire Gem ! Thanks
I’m small time collector. It does get exciting to see all these comics.
Hahaha I love the outtakes at the end.
Very interesting, thanks for sharing Gem
I have stopped collecting a long time ago, but still look fondly on the books that I have right now, still read them, they are important books to me and not just items to be resold. While I understand collecting, I could never hustle like you do to get those pieces I once really wanted. I think that fire is gone. Great videos though, I enjoy them quite a lot!
Cool story Gem Mint, thanks for sharing👍🏼
I’m trying to do this but I don’t wanna let go of anything 😂
Yo Gem, solid info! Flipping is a great strategy for building collections!
Love your story, thanks for sharing
That’s a great story and lesson on how to reach your goals 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thanks for the tips. Set goals and reach them logically.
Thanks for the great content Gem!
Really enjoyed this one on showing how to get the grails Gem 💎 Most definitely re-evaluating my collection and getting ready to flip towards my 181!
Can always buy those cheaper books back
I love your mindset . I try to do the same with selling some collectibles to get bigger pieces but sometimes I get too attached. Great vid Gem
Awesome!!! You make it look easy how you sell and pyramid up your collection. I am too attached and it makes it hard to let go of things. Keep up the great videos.
This is a great videos GEM, thank you for this 🙏🏼🔥
Good job, man. I should start flipping my collection, but the wife would come along, sniffing for her cut.
Great video as usual! I love the outtakes at the end haha
