This guy thinks we can see through his BS 😆 He's got the most Evolving skies. C'mon man.
inb4 rudy bans this commenter for spreading facts
Does a pin mean this comment is banned now?
@@MTG69 no it means that i love turtles
@@HappyTimeFunZone Ninja or Sea?
@@MTG69 all of the above. i owned a soft shell, red ear sliders, yellow bellys and spotted. reptiles and nature in general was my life blood growing up i just got too focused on 9-5 so im able to enjoy life again
Poke rudy is best rudy!!!!❤
Yeah, I wish he just completely shift to Pokémon, new MTG is terrible.
Not having your first edition base in an acrylic case is so wild
It's not English
When did that become a thing? Genuine question, as I don't collect sealed product
dude has a 20m+ portfolio of sealed product lol
@@2spookiiSo he can certainly afford a $40 case 🤣
to be fair he dont do that with any of his seal product and hes got a shit ton of it
"Everyone's cracking these packs whether they're naked or not." These statements are why I am here.
😂😂😂 My God❕❕ I was cracking up and did not see that coming! This guy has a way with his words . 😅
lmao yuup
Fusion Strike is the set where they had a table full of stacks of the chase cards.
And evolving skies I believe
Thought it was fusion strike only
@@StefanoAgrotis no only fs
People will eventually come around on the S/V sets too. The illustration rare cards are all beautiful and 151 already sells out almost instantly every time it’s restocked.
Eh, not unless they tank pull rates and make it more older gen focused. Current SV besides 151 will NEVER have swsh post chilling growth
I agree. S&S is the best era since WOTC. Although I am very fond of the diamond and pearl era too with the very nice artwork and holo bleeds.
@@Every1jockzjay3 months later haha take a look how wrong you are
The casual $200,000 box flex to start the video
He's shown it before. It's in like german or something, its not English.
Yeah it’s not English
that wrapper looks insane
wonder if anyone would actually pay the top dollar... the crazy thing though is i bet if you put it up for sale for say... 100-125+ish it would fly off the shelf like wow this is a great deal what an idiot.. i mean that's still a lot of money. win
He has to do that to get your trust, and make you think he knows what he's doing. It's why all those pyramid scheme dude wear Rolex and other indicators that they're "successful"
I haven't watched this channel in a few months but it's great to come back and still see the old man ramble
Makes sense to me. Unfortunately I got into saving boxes when I thought evolving at 144 was too much and thought I'll get this at 120.. never saw them there. Bought one to open at 180 and didn't hold one to save because I thought I'll see at pokemon center at 144 again.. nope. live and learn.
Hey Rudy, I know you probably won't see this but I really enjoy your videos, especially the long conversations about life. You have mentioned becoming a father recently (congrats!). I'm an expectant father as well, and I was wondering how fatherhood has changed your perspective on things. Would be a neat video to listen to! Take care.
Congrats! Love these type of videos as well.
yooo what video is that? i had no idea! RUDY JR welcome to this world. you think the babys crib will be forged w a PSA 10 forest of magical references? honestly the idea of a racecar bed or a crib made out of graded cards like a castle is the way my mind works. anyways congrats RUDYYYY
Been saying it for 2 years. 10k copies of moonbreon in a 10 is a drop in the ocean when a million want it
Also when a percentage of those are now permanently off the market and in personal collections
The vintage snobs think any card pop that is more than double digits is too high of a POP! lol
Depends if the demand holds up long term. That is a lot of supply.
@@portalmasterry6765 That is generally a good pop to aim for if you can.
@@portalmasterry6765also have you noticed how all the “influencers” are scoffing at the price, I’m sure they are mad it’s so high right now so they can’t buy them all up
what about one piece??? :(
What alot of people forget is swsh is last era with yellow borders
Magic = dead pokemon = future
Going full woke is the end of the games and the bursting of this market bubble is the end for the tcg.
@@palkys. lol Pokémon in Japan has like 900 m in sales. Magic has what? 50 mil? Weak ass game with too many stupid features. Mtg is like the Fortnite of TCGS
@@palkys. What does that mean
Could never imagine that we'd see the day where a Blaziken set card is going for $300 raw.
Truly bizarre and wild.
Ehhh.. I’m not an expert but I bought mine at $170… only 5!!! Listed on TCG … 5 total … and there was 1-2 sales a day.., didn’t take a genius to see demand outpaced supply :) . And this was 2 months ago ! Maybe 6 weeks !
Not that crazy, people buy JPEGS for thousands...
@@TheSnackAttackingSnorlax good job, not what I meant though.
Seeing prices go up and down like crazy right now is normal, but if you see it with a perspective from 2014-2018...nobody could've guessed anything like this.
A new Charizard card at $300? Maybe. But only Charizard had that power, and it wouldn't be for long. Virtually no modern cards back then hit even $50 raw.
Blaziken? You'd think it would have to be a prize card, not a set card.
@@7eventhSense true. Crazy is sane now
Amazing card art worth to every penny
Rudy, who is your favorite Pokémon. I know you don’t collect it, but you gotta have a favorite.
Its important to remember that even though the BB's are going up, the packs themselfs are under msrp for every set besides ES. This points to either the fact that the booster boxes themselfs have become a highly sought after and collectible item, or possibly alot of speculation. But its important to remember, these packs arnt running away from everyone. You can still get packs affordably and open as much as you want. They havnt all been gobbled up. Only the booster boxes are running away, which is only an issue if you are intrested in collecting or speculating on the box itselfs.
Blister/sleeved Packs are a solid investment if you can't get the BB or you missed the boat. They usually see a respectable return on investment over time and like Rudy said. More and more people are ripping which will dwindle down the supply. Look at evolutions for example, $820 for a booster box. A sleeved pack is $30 which is a bigger ROI than the bb itself by a large margin ($260) so you don't need to fomo on BBs there are still options to be had on the solo packs.
I have so much confidence in Pokemon doing great long term. Young kids are into Pokemon and that's all I need to see to invest in it.
i'm new to pokemon want to invest some spare money into boxes i found silver tempest at 125 euro ea i think that is a good deal?
Great deal it's only gonna go up
I seen his videos and I seen the crates that he bought two years ago of lost origins silver Tempest, and evolving skies. It was a huge flex. I seen it so when I seen him shining, I can be happy for him.
You got a subscribe from me.. love the way you explained this and it’s so true the patience will always outweigh the haters and naysayers I try to explain this to my friends all the time stop sleeping and wake up the time was a few months ago and no one listened
I cant tell you how many times I sold a moonbreon on eBay and got attacked by shill bids, with no payment. Ebay records these as legit sales no matter how many times I call them and tell then to delete the auction. AND report non payment.
I see you
@@sonofamerc 💪🏻
There are plenty of third party platforms that can scrape eBay to see if items were actually paid for or not and ignore the sales they weren’t. Literally a dozen apps that do this
@@richardslade9307 while that is true unfortunately the wider public doesn't know this and the market price is easy to manipulate in the manner that is happening at the moment
@@richardslade9307and which of those apps do you recommend for people?
It's all the people who DIDN'T invest telling you you're gonna fail because they're jealous they didn't get a slice when they had the chance. People just can't be happy for someone else's success, people are petty as hell.
Only Rudy has random 1stEd base set boxes just chilling, no case just hanging out, nothing to see here lol
The big alt arts are hard to pull they were always undervalued the top alt art from each set was always 2/3 - 1 1/3 of box price but you have to open cases to pull it, printed to oblivion yes but with Scarlett & Violet being lack lustre people are chasing the sword & shield because it was better. box breaking isn’t profitable compared to market value.
Hard to pull but with so many boxes opened they're not exactly rare.
@@monkey39128 I would say the big alt arts are scarce not rare due to how many pack it takes and how many people want to own them
@@monkey39128 Do you have any? Do you know people who have them? You really underestimate how many people want these cards, if you are from MTG, that is not comparable. MTG is not collectible card game. MTG cards people want because they play with them and are priced for playability, not for collectability. Did you opened any SW&SH sets? Try to pull that Umbreon and let me know how how many thousands you spend before you really pull it. If you remember Kaladesh Masterpieces, then these are easy to pull in comparsion... They are rare. Especially now, when boxes are expensive.
Just picked up 2 paradox rift for 200 at my local store. Into the closet they go.
We all know Rudy is going to build a mansion with Sword and Shield cases!!!!
Jesus Rudy 40 min pumping Pikachus 😂 we get it... Heavy bags and so on 😅
Glad I genuinely enjoyed ES as a collectible and playable set. A few cards (not Moon, thank God) away from a master set, which includes some square-edge misprints. So many memories. It’ll be fun to peak at values now and then, but the binder is on the shelf to stay.
Hey come on Rudy I did my part, I bought a case of Chilling Reign at it's bottom price. I would of bought more if I was allowed to but something about Pokemon and making money didn't sit right with my wife 😅
*sells something for a profit.* - "ugh you play with childs games? grow up" - okay? lol
Ditch the wife, keep the cards.
Rudy + long Pokemon video = 🌮
This video gets 3 out of 3 🌮 from me
rudy still pushing his dogshit grading company when he knows full well he would never use it for anything of real value, ive been watching him since literally eating cereal out of eldritch moon boxes, its the only only thing i genuinely hate that hes ever done.
PCG has been lately very prominent company and expanded internationally
@@Possu81 I think he is being sarcastic... fingers crossed it is 2024 hahaha
@@Possu81 prominent, lmao were just saying words now.
tbf pcg has gotten alot better in the last years
@@2ndcitysaint52 Nice word salad. 😂
Gotta. Catch. Em. All.
This will be obtainable if and when pokemon is all said and done, something many people are crazy enough to try and do. Buy low and hold everyone its ezzzz
Anyone not clearing out their Sam's Heavy Hitters for $29-$33 for 14 packs isn't paying attention
$24 here in Arizona, still not buying them 😂
@@doctorgap "couldnt even pay me to take this shit" lol
The ones with the two packs of ES are the definition of arbitrage…
@@GhostTrainConductor1989 some people collect things because they are astonishingly bad, for meme/contrarian investing or just a laugh. either way ill take my chances elsewhere lol
eg: i own a 100 trillion dollar zimbabwe bill
@@doctorgap what?! Mind sharing a zip?
Never heard of you before, but found this extremely interesting and informative. Thank you!
WTF happened to lost origin? $200 on ebay? I bought these on pre-order for 100 bucks. Wish I kept more sealed but I had to complete the set ;) I love cracking packs but sometimes it's a little dangerous for me lol
Rudy I've watched you since the start and here is a suggestion that you really need to think about. Retire and sell off what you have, because it will take you a life time to sell what you have now. There is something big about to hit our world and it's called AGI when it comes probably next year the monetary system will be destroyed, gone, no more... Your money will be worthless so the only reason you will have to keep it all will be " look what I achieved now it all goes back m8" the cards will be worthless AI will give you a card you won't distunguish from tge real thing , they will print a 1st edition base charizard out their ass. Collectables will be destroyed because AI will make anything you want that will be so perfect you won't be able to tell it from the real thing hell they'll even grade it if you want. So Remember I told you ok. There will be a run on trying to get rid of everything soon and I know you will be tempted but there won't be any point to it all if theres no money. I'm not trying to derail you like you say in the vid but society has around 2 years left maybe 3 till you get everything you ever need "free"
i really like your approach to pokemon investing as a whole been following the pokemon market for a long time and bought in on a much smaller scale in the last 2 years. my question to you is how do you choose when to unravel your position if you dont really need the capital. is it slowly over time or just hold everything until selling all at once. i know that really doesnt apply to you as much with the patreon plus your history holding for the long haul. but what would you recommend, like selling lower performing products to re invest in other product.
Watch some of his old Q&A's. He's answered that one a few times.
Slowly and cautiously as Rudy would say. Don’t move the market depending on the age.
Yes, rudy. The brick of cards that were stolen were SWSH Fusion Strike. Remember all those gengar VMAXes and Espeon VMAXes? Look at how much those go for right now.
That guy seriously screwed up. At that time, those cards were only 100$ each!!!! He should've just unloaded on tcgplayer slowly
@@tangerineg9038 Yeah dude was an absolute idiot. Could have slowly unloaded them over the years and lived off it.
That's exactly what the leader of a market manipulating cabal would say.
Your logic has always made sense. Buy at $80-$100 and you just can’t lose. The market has always dictated that it’ll eventually go up. After listening to you say that a year ago I bought a ton of Battle Styles, Fusion Strike, Chilling Reign, Lost Origin, and one case of Evolving Skies. I’m definitely sitting pretty now and I’m excited to see the day when all these sets (even Battle Styles) breaks $200.
Did it break 200
History repeats itself…I’ll leave it at that.
Really regret opening up a case of fusion at $88 plus tax/box :O
yeah unless you got dat gengar
There was just an announcement of a black lotus sold for $3 Million 🎉 I can't for pokemon to do the same.
The stolen hits were from Fusion Strike and Evolving Skies
The story 11:30. An individual who worked the printing factory had stack of 151 mews, umbreons etc equivalent to 300-500k+, prior to price hikes. They tried to offload them all at once to a LGS. I wonder though if these cards were taken from packs there must be a tonnn of dud S&S packs out there.
What would you do as a young person, starting out in the "real world"? Can one make it in the "traditional" way anymore? How would you approach it if you started in 2024?
Get a real job and invest / flip on the side.
The problem is you have too many vintage lovers. There are some great cards but a lot of them aren't worth much anyway. Modern cards have a ton of value because they have art styles and card types that never existed prior. I was lucky and bought my psa 10 Rayqueza in Feb for $380
The modern V vintage argument is stupid. We all love Pokémon so who cares.
I’ve been into crypto for over 3 years, just now got into collecting Pokémon/sports cards. Awesome video, great comparisons, hope your investments pay off . I’m on board .
I have one sealed booster case of each SW&SH set and sealed case of ETBs of each set
If you sold all of your boxes in 2021, and bought back every box you sold today, you would have all the inventory you have today plus millions of dollars.
It’s easy to say when things happen already… point is you can still make money now that market is down.
@@pozarclothing yes it’s always easy to Monday morning quarterback. And attempting to time a market is near impossible. However what happened in 2020/2021 in pokemon wasn’t a normal up tic, it was a very obvious bubble and mania. I would have thought that would have been obvious to someone like Rudy who is so involved in the industry.
How is America crashing when people are willing to pay for onlyfans?!?!?lmfao. Or pay for watching someone on Twitch or buy weed from a store?!?! We aren't broke. We are spending money on stuff that isn't evaluated like the stock market.
Good point... remember there's a difference between being poor and being broke
I am here once again to tell you all that my cats name is also Rudy.
LOL like the bernie meme, i am asking once again... hahahaha
GameStop getting into the PSA market trade is about to shake things up for everyone.
I've been saying swsh will be the top dog for a year now
Good ol' market manipulation video ;)
This bubble is bursting. Idk when, but you cannot eat carboard.
I'd never participate in the frenzy after prices already gone up. SPECIALLY when reprints never seem to end.
gotta get me one of those PSA 10 69 Rudy Umbreon cards
it was fusion strike that had all the stolen factory alt arts, like Gengar and Espeon vmax etc.. everyone thought it would crash the price, but from what I heard they were discarded and trashed, therefore making some of the alt arts even more rare + valuable, but who knows. alt arts continue to be high demand.
THE GREATEST POKEMON TACO MARKET IN HISTORY.
7:23 in an he finally gets excited lol
I think we owe this to pokemon 151. Many got into the hobby because of it, and now they want more. We see this because they are alt art and different from what people remember pokemon to be. Now it's like investing in art, because it is.
I’m shocked. Magic fans in here “don’t get” why Pokemon cards are worth money. I mean, you folks were never really bright…
In other words, you can’t come up with a good reason so you’ll resort to insults
Pokémon is the largest ip in the world of course stuff is worth money… dumb dumb
@@afkafk129 it’s the largest IP in the world NOW. Do you realize how big Barbie was? Mickey was? Hello Kitty is the 2nd largest IP ever, how much do you see it now? You have one country doing all the heavy lifting to make it the largest IP the world. History says it will fade, just like every other IP. Then you’ll have a bunch of shiny cards with cartoons on them that no one cares about too much. Why someone would attribute so much value to something so massively produced in spite of this exact trend of overvaluing a fad only for the market to crash is something easy to “not get.” See: baseball cards, Beanie Babies, Cabbage Patch Kids, comic books. Anything bought while it’s cool and big turns out to be worthless.
Yes, they are clever morons who at the end of the day does not understand anything. But they beat you in a game and then trample over you because they won. Most of MTG players are just overgrown kids and they behave like that. I stopped playing MTG in person completely, tired of them, nobody with a brain wants to spend a whole day playing versus angry overgrown kids who will do everything to beat you in a game, cheating included.
@@afkafk129not "of course" when they can reprint whatever whenever.
In any market, do you know what follows after the extreme confidence spike?
Chillin reign just got taken off Pokémon center I don’t know if they will come back so might be out of print as of now… I believe sword and shield will be just like sky ridge ( last set WOTC printed) sword and shield will be the last set with yellow borders and crazy alt arts . Hopefully I’m here in 20 years to see the prices so I can finally retire lol
Our lord and savior, Rudy the Great
ser please make a video of your stock :)
When Rudy Mews his tongue 👅 he's showing off😂
Does he not remember covid and Logan Paul?
Cards were stolen from fusion strike and evolving skies
Im saying it now masquerade and paldean fates too the moon
Rudy version 6.9 😂😂
💰💰💰💰💰
Is there even an upper limit for how much they can print without crashing the market? Based on the reception for the S&V sets, we seem to have reached that point. But will sentiment shift again in 5 years time?
Buy for pennys sell for millions
the biggest reason in my opinion, in my small little collecting corner, that everything is growing so fast is just the mass pack breaks that happen every day on RUclips etc. I mean possibly 10s of thousands a day. So supply has never dried so fast. I remember waiting years to see gains then lost origin went from $90 to ?210 in just 8? Months.
I agree with all besides rebel,vivid,battle styles, and darkness ablaze. PERSONALLY believe that. Much rather buy LO CR ST FS BRIL ES. Those are just way better investments.
Its just that money that would have gone to Metazoo going to pokemon
You the man. I need one of those shirts
"Second edition" 😂
Haha made me chuckle too!
I laughed so hard hahaha
He means base set 2. Which is basically 2nd edition
Laughed too haha
Im calling it now, magikarp from paldea evolved will be big.
Rudy is absolutely hilarious. I hope no one listens to this as anything besides pure entertainment, and not advice lol. No one is buying from him, through his patreon for TCG player prices.
No one with multiple real estates properties or heavily invested in the stock market patreons Rudy..lol
11:32 I think that was around the time of Lost Origin but I could be wrong
Fusion Strike was the set with the stolen chase cards
TLDW: Buy sealed, do nothing, sell for huge profit in 50 years.
What’s the point basically be dead by then
Fusion Strike was the one that was "compromised" because of the leaked photos of the stolen hits. Evidently 😆
Sealed swsh gets climbimbing in price people back off of buying it so the manipulators manipulate the singles because their sealed is high priced and stagnant for a week in order to make people want to buy their high priced sealed again lol
Market manipulation 😂😂😂 what a preposterous idea
Edit: thoughts on Miku magic cards? Lol
I pulled that Blaziken 4 years ago it was my first “good” pull 😂 I knew holding it would pay off. Still not selling though
You still got the XY ERA BATHROOM?? Goldmine
Dropping in to say you’re killing it. Thanks for the value-add videos.
What effect do we think modern repricing will have on vintage sealed products, slabs and singles?
Pump the fist, I stayed the course
Man what do you do for a living besides pokemon investing
Rudy may own MASSIVE amounts of SWSH, but obviously hasn’t mass ripped it
i bought the pokemon promo mew metal card for 1700 euro. they where going for 4 each plus a little shipping costs. they will go up. mark my words.
The stolen cards he mentioned was from Fusion Strike. The chase cards from that set are the Gengar VMAX alt which goes for over $300 (over twice the market price at the time of the incident) and the Espeon VMAX alt which goes for around $150 (almost twice the market price at the time of the incident)
I can’t believe that wasn’t a bigger story.
It was not just Fusion Strike. I see Old pokemon posts on my Instagram feed, and I saw a stack of Rayquaza Vmax alt arts and Moonbreons.
@@pikabrewwa lot of the influencers went hard in the paint trying to cover up that whole story, shilling for the Pokémon company because a ton of them get free products and perks from them.
@@mikesteve2058 for sure saw that as well. a table full of ES alt arts. Hard to fake that.
Rudy you should diversity into land man! Eastern Ontario land has gone up like 12 percent in 2023
Rudys flexes are cold af :D
151 in English is going to skyrocket
Tell the collector bros to be quiet..... They can keep.cracking packs that rudy sells them
Canadian bonds are paying 9!!!! 9!!!!! Oh man what a great time to be investing! XUS to the moon
Im mixed with pull rates so bad i think the chase card is going to be king for 7 to 10 years
