nothing makes me laugh harder than Rudy saying, "Hey! thats like a $20 card" or "You can sell that empty box" - the guy spent $10K and Rudy is comforting him with $20 cards and empty boxes lol
Haha I have been reading comments and I am the one opening the box. It is seriously a bad investment to open something like this and I knew that long before I got to the table. I live and breath magic so I was definitely paying for the experience. This is a MTG nerds Disneyland in a sense, I paid a lot of money for a fun experience I may never get to do again but at least I have a ton of NM gradable antiquities cards that in the very long term will hopefully balance out the investment. Thanks Rudy for recording. He definitely seduced me with his floppy taco and yes my **** is in fact holding that table up the entire time to answer just a few of the questions and comments below!
Thank you for doing this, it really brings me back to when this set was released! I opened 3 boxes in the mid 90's and it was unforgettable!
That is awesome man! I wish I could crack more and grade more but alas one box hurts enough haha!
Show and Tell, hopefully all the prices of the cards you got spike.
you are 1 cool dude! 2 thumbs up!
Hopefully! Haha, I will be doing a follow up video on my channel showing and discussing pack fresh grading. I am getting a lot of the higher end cards here back from grading in a week!
That asian dude still gives me PTSD from that magic battle with professor..
And the episode where he kept talking about the artists using their cards as business cards.
@@McJohnGill can't find that, can you link?
@@McJohnGill bruh link it u bastard
@@McJohnGill dude, fucking link it
Don’t link it, nobody should have to watch that dude..
This guy opened that box like a boss. If you're going to open anything like this, you gotta do it with absolutely no regrets. It's worth every second
He’s regretting it now
Math would say that's incorrect
It’s been 3 years and when rewatching I realized that Gavin is standing there and just taking it all in. Taking pictures of the box like a nerd. He’s the one who lead design on mystery boosters. This is the moment he realized old cards were so cool to people. Hence why he kept old frames. This guy inspired mystery boosters and “the list” and has no idea
That's pretty cool, i was wondering why he wanted so many pictures, I love the retro frames, so does the market :) those prices on retro foils
Open Boosters is like The Godfather of OG ‘93 players/collectors. Such humility and wisdom! Respect!
Im drunk watching random shit and this is pretty cool. like for reals. idk what any of this is tho...
RanferiH Nerds in their natural habitat
I wanna get drunk too
this is about gambling. degenerate gambling..
Idk anything about magic either. Idk why I watch this shit. I'm lost.
IQ must be 3 digits to ride this ride
I love that the one dude at 14 minutes came up and explained why card wasn't fake after they just opened it in front of everyone
If you open a fake pack in front of me it makes it real?
@@Chyeahokay They faked an entire box, shrink wrapping and all? That would be pretty crazy. Also impossible to pass as real
that "dude" is the person that sold the box to the opener.
Gavin across the table was the closest Wizards would allow any employee to be to the Voldemort Tacolord of MTG
Haha I love Gavin Verhey just sneaky in the background.
Ashlen rose too
Love ho Rudy said ”No, that would mean Wizards would do something smart!” with Gavin Verhey standing RIGHT THERE!!
Never played this or collected these, but watching the reactions and seeing packs being opened is oddly satisfying
As soon as he says most of his gratification while opening packs comes from the artwork and experience, BAM he hit paydirt, love it.
$10,000.00 MTG Antiquities Booster Box opening in Las Vegas
***Gets exited when a $100 card pops out****
Lesson of the video: Don't open a sealed box of Antiquities
especially not without gloves and not in front of rudy and the asian guy because *they will touch every single good card*
11:20 "There is never a regret opening is always priceless." - Open Boosters
*any cardshop ever* I'll give you 16$ for the lot
Lmao
Dude: Why are my cards all graded 9.0 instead of 10.0?
Grading Company: They would all be 10.0, but we found these creepy fingerprints all over them, sorry bout that.
That’s not how the grades work.
Jasper Janssen that's not how the Joke works...
They will just switch your ingraded cards for their fake proxies
@@JasperJanssen no shit, have you heard of a joke
Bad joke is bad
Want to watch me turn 10 K into $1,200, nice Magic trick.
C/P Workshop around 4k+
@@ealdscield plus a few power artifacts which are about 350 a piece now
Man the wrong guy standing next to you can fuck up that whole experience lmaoo
It was so sweet about the random six pack give away at the end there. That was a truly kind gesture.
Rudys dark side mind control tactics controlled this poor man to open this product and lower the worlds stock you can see confirmed rudy subtly asks just one pack? he said no all 60. this was Rude Rudy's subtle camouflaged dark art pentagram mind control.
he can touch us beyond the screen surely he can touch this innocent man's inner mind through his skull
Yea... Creepy Rudy in person is definitely bad... like right off the bat his oracle text is littered with keywords: Skulk, Fear, Flying, Shadow, don't even bother reading the rest of the activated abilities, he's a 6'/6'' human wizard taco for fucks sake.
What in the holy shit did you just say? Is that like the Elvish talk stuff?
thats how sell talks works..
rob. g sure you do
don't rub the cards against the play mat without putting them into sleeves first... rudy dropping that PSA grade as you scoot it around on the mat
That was his goal. To lower this guy's card ratings so Rudy has less competition on the market.
I don't know anything about Magic cards, let alone the collectors scene, but isn't it kind of disrespectful that he touches the guy's cards without asking?
yes it is
I would say all of these guys are incredibly close friends and colleagues, so it must not be that big a deal or they would have called him out on it.
He would have said something if he didn't want them touching, they all know the card values and were not being overly touchy. The one guy even put the most expensive card into a nice sleeve. He also would have been wearing gloves himself if he was overly concerned about skin contact.
@@ShiningDarknes nothing like a bit of peer pressure to silence the uncomfortable. Are you telling me you'd genuinely tell Rudy and his friends to back the fuck off when you're opening stuff infront of them on camera. Like hell.
@@lmaoroflcopter ummm yeah I would absolutely have the balls to say it on my $10k investment. You must be a beta make if you wouldn't say shit. Lol
I don't even play Magic and I'm watching this.
Crack cards....back in the day this was the thing.....and just as fun to play today.
stop letting floppy taco hand ruddy touch your cards XD
That camera guy is sooooo annoying.
"I'm going to have these graded"
*Camera guy* - "Cool, let me touch them immediately"
That snakey camera man, made sure he touched every high card!
For anyone wondering 90% sure Nissa was Ashlen Rose
Thank you sir. I am now a creep.
My thought exactly :D
this is the shit you feel bad about in a few days
No way dude! It was a once in a lifetime open for me, you just take all of it and grade it. Then you feel bad when pack fresh stuff comes back as 8s. Womp Womp!
Show and Tell yeah it was badass. I have never seen anyone open a whole box of antiques before in my life.
Antiques Roadshow, man.
+Alvin Mason I managed to open about 30 packs (half box) of antiquities when they first came out. Best I've seen before this. My factories (all but winter) and strip mines ended up getting played to shit... lol... never pulled a candelabra or workshop though.
fomori2 so cool you got to enjoy them especially when new. I think it's cool I got to play all the cards and decks from the 90s when I talk to newer players that weren't even born yet
If this was a bad idea then, it’s a terrible idea now. I like the guy in the background saying “every pack is like 170 dollars...” Antiquities boosters are like $350-400 now. If he had cracked that box and sold the packs on eBay he could have made $20,000.
I’m all for nostalgia but within reason.
Well, today that many packs would be worth 75 000€ :D How bout that :D
Especially back then, these were MADE to be opened. The guy got his $10,000 worth in the experience alone, he stated so himself. Not everyone needs to treat every magic purchase as an investment for returns.
The boxes x6 in cost in just 5 years. Crazy fast acceleration there.
This is exactly how I remember card packs being when I opened up my packs from Antiquities when I was buying them back in 1994 era. Most packs had a lot of mid-okay to nothings, then you'd get that one pack WHAM! good card. Took quite a while to complete out my full set of ANQ.
WHY R U TOUCHING HIS CARDS LOL
GET GLOVE OMG LOL
Exactly worst camera man ever also
That was bugging the shit out of me. Dude was just scraping them around and touching shit he wasn't supposed to. I'd of told him "don't touch my shit. If you wanna record, cool, but don't touch my shit."
Maybe he was touching them to try lower the grade they come back as, directly impacting the value? Haha.
14:14 he is pretty aggro about all these guys touching his shit
i often wish i could erase my memory so i could experience Dark Souls for the first time again... pure magic
I feel like I'm watching Trailer Park Boys and all I see is Randy's gut
It's so interesting seeing all these important mtg people in the community standing around someone I see at my lgs weekly. Meta games is a great store!
Why does everybody want to excessively touch and handle his most valuable cards?
Thank you Rob exactly both of you. Are 100%. No respect I have some Beautiful cards was thinking about contacting them. But now fuck NO. NO respect
This video is pure..magic. Loved it :) I don't think its something I would do but it was a pleasure to watch. The community of people watching right along side, happy for either a never ending moment of nostalgia or hoping to see that one priceless card. Either way tis a gathering of folks who share that same love for that magical cardboard.
Ashlen's Nissa cosplay is on point as always!
being such an avid watcher of game knights and command zone i immediately spotted ash in this one lol
OKAY SO THAT WAS ASHLEN.
that kid in the "I'm voting for tacos" t-shirt, I hope you offered him a discount Rudy.
I'm a simple man. I see Ashlen in the thumbnail, I click the thumbnail.
i always lick my fingers before i touch other peoples cards, then i sneeze on them
fsfx nothing like watching Hotel porn and letting a few off... then going around touch people’s cards😛
so the value drops significantly as soon as its not sealed as 60 packs, right?
Yes. As soon as the seal is broken $10k becomes whatever you can get for the contents of the packs.
The true value comes after they get graded and the prices triple and quadruple
@@ShiningDarknes Well first it becomes the price of 60 individual boosters, THEN the price of the contents as you open packs.
@@hometownhobbies103 wich Costs also money itself
I am curious, why is everyone touching them and what not. Wouldn't you want to open these with gloves and lay them on velvet or something?
you know what's funny ?
this guy spent 10k bucks to open these packs, and rudy got to film him for free, netting at least couple of hundreads bucks from the views this video will get.
that's an example of profitable business !
Odoacre Da Calcutta that wasn’t funny at all. Try again dip shit
what's funny is him trying to be pushy and touch everything.
@@OffWithReligion You are right, that's not funny - it's fucking hilarious!
Not really, he also got a trade-off for his business as well. Trust you. He got a lot of traffic to his spot after this video.
And he did say he has had that for a very long time. He definitely didn't spend 10k on the box. Could have spent a thousand or less. You never know.
"I'm doing it for the experience." Spikes the workshop that very pack. Couldn't have planned it better.
"What oh what what aww what ouuu what aah what oww what no..." - some dudes in Las Vegas 2017 -
I can't believe he got a black lotus
Anyone else creeped our by people sliding around dudes cards and smudging them up by touching them...guy was nice enough to open cards in front of a crowd, and people getting all touchy handsy with his cards. I'm gonna grade those cards I don't want dirty/oily hands and fingers on my cards. In fact I'm going straight to top loaders, not sliding them around on a dealers table. Yuck!
that cosplay was fucking awesome
na
cringe
Half of my university tuition is on that table.
EDIT: After the box was opened, 1/10th.
Damn, that's a cheap school...
"What is he doing? Is he sleeping?" hahahahaha
I have never played Magic and Idk what these cards are but this was really fun to watch and also very intense. Loving the vids they are awesome!
Rudy, you’re the best. Enjoy this time in your life, it’s one hell of a double decker taco!
I opened a box when they were actually in stores. I think I spent like $80-$100.
The idea that someone spent $10,000 is insane to me.
jackal242 haters gonna hate
Just because the box is worth 10K doesn't mean the person paid 10K for it.
Wasnt 80 back then like 140 now lol
@@bennycostello2472 more than that. probably like 300
This used to be a weekly event for me back in the day. A box of boosters, typically 'Unlimited' but quite often an expansion like Antiquities through Fallen Empire. Nothing after Ice Age, I stopped playing then.
My only concern is... WHY AREN'T THEY SLEEVING THE CARDS
''Wizards should like be streaming this live''
''Seriously''
''Yeah, they should''
''That would be intelligent for them to do, but they won't do that''
Said right next to a WOTC employee.
When I heard "slowly but surely", I finished it with "losing money."
Man, stop touching the dude's money card!
Holy crap Rudy how did you hold out on posting this video. That was awesome.
Brings backs memories when I was a kid and our shop got one...ONE box of Antiquities. I trade for four Su-Chi's and ran a deck with four Priest of Yawgmoth. Sac the Su-chi to the Priest to get 4 colorless and 4 black mana. Good times.
One of the 4 Strip Mines is C1, while the other 3 are U1. So perfectly plausible to find a pack with two: one occupying one of the 6 commons slots and the other occupying one of the 2 uncommon slots
You could slowly see this guys soul being drained as the opening kept going from bad to worse.
The first time I watched this video 6 years ago I didn't realize Ashlen was nissa
8:00 Why is there a bird inside.
xFlyswatterx because it got in
Lmfao 1 year late
Its a bird token
Wow,I found same box for 10.00 at my flea market, if I knew I would have bought.
Probably fake if it's only $10
Wow that was amazing fun!!! Glad to be there for it!!!
Great to see Gavin Verhey being creepy over the guys shoulder 😂
Fuck that, I wanna open that Nissa
You kids are fucking awful. Did puberty just kick in?
When did you turn into Ebenezer Geezer?
Timestamp?
Dude, don't be that guy. You can admire Ashlen's excellent cosplay without being a creep about it.
Projection much?
4 years later what a steal for this experience
Omg, I see GAVIN ! "Who built these decks?!?" - Day[9]
I opened so many of these in college including betas and double mox alpha packs who knew they would be so valuable! I sold my power ten sets in 96 for around $1000 ugh!
😢
I like alpha investments but he really pissed me off when he was constantly touching the guys cards
I’m pretty sure this is the video that I saw years ago that made me follow Rudy. Funny to have it recommended to me again
Learning how strict the grading system I am surprised a little more caution isn't used when they open these packs. I'd be opening these cards in a controlled environment 5 stories underground using surgical tools.
i just got this thought... 15+ years ago , i gave all my cards away to my friend... had few gem mox cards ( white, blue and green) and bad shape black lotus aswell .. well was in every deck i build so , got use allot .. i cant even bear thinking how expensive those first series would be now... no its more close to 20 years ago.. damn the time flies..
But for me back then , it was only way to go about it.. give all away at once , stop spending and start saving for kids. About the same time , i stopped the gambling addiction as well.
Someone explain to me why these cards are worth so much please no hate just curious
It was the second expansion set for Magic, came out in early 1994. There were very very few boxes printed, and they were scare even back than. It's just the sheer rarity of the sealed product that makes it worth that much. Probably less than 100 boxes left sealed in the world right now. The cards inside that he pulled are worth maybe $2000-$3000 total. He knew it would be a loss going into it. Just did it for the thrill.
And this is why I go to work everyday so that one day I can buy a box of zendikar or ice age. Also someone get this man some sleeves AND A ESCORT TO HIS BASEMENT!
I once spent $10k on whores and weed over the course of about 5 weeks. At the end of the day, if it brings you $10k of happiness and memories, then it's worth it.
why weed and not blow?
Bc todays blow is cut to shit or dusted with fentanyl
I only know a few things about MTG but I can tell that this is one wild experience. Good for you, man.
green screen. That was actually a box of etermal masters.
The cracked open the entire box at the Hose Town City Convention.
this dude totally opened up that green elf's box after this
Nissa, man... If you dont know mtg, dont make creepy comments on mtg videos
Nissa, man... If you don't know mtg don't make creepy comments on mtg videos
She hot tho (Ashlen Rose, a very well-known mtg cosplayer)
Dude I'm glad to see your channel growing...i remember when it was like 15k......
I'd be pissed if a random creepy guy was touching my cards that I specifically stated that I planned on getting them graded. Especially for that amount paid.
He's just... helping... XD
How do you know he's random. Not friends?
His name is Rudy he is a pretty well known card collector and most likely bought all the cards he touched. But they should all have gloves on 🤦♂️
Haha rudy is not some random creep
Notice what side of the table he is on.
Awesome. Thanks for taking this video for some who will never get to do this!!
0:55 Is this the first actual sighting of openboosters? I know he's usually camera-shy.
It is not the first, but it is the actual.
It's nice to see the vendor that actually cares
I dont get mtg, can somebody explain what's happening here ?
Thx, im pretty fond of tcg, but i was wondering why that many people was *gathering*
I always wondered what Nissa would look like in real life... 🤔 now i know! Super cute
the most painful video in history
You know the people around u watching while u open packs.... there in almost complete silence. True magic lovers at there finest
openboosters needs a size up on the shirt
topher does the same go with Des?
i geeked out too hard at this
Man, this was such a treat. Bummer no candle, was really rooting for him.
I almost stop eating watching this cause I didn't want to ruin the cards
I haven’t played this game in 15 years but I can’t stop watching these videos lol
me the whole video: STOP TOUCHING THE FUCKING CARDS!
To the shit talkers you need to realize anybody could look at what you spend your money on and say the same thing about you.
Life is about living the way you want. A lot of people wish they could be in that guys shoes and here the haters are talking shit...
Good for him. He's one of only a few that EVER did this.
So what happened with the original upload?
blarghzero the audio was delayed
Sync was off.
8:00 bird craps on black lotus
