Starting Hot wheels again soon. Two hologram boxes per year, sell one keep one, keep it small for now and build into the future. Thanks for the lessons man.
I’ve said it before, never played Magic or owned a card, probably never will, but I watch these videos religiously. Incredibly thoughtful insight into markets and the world in general👍🏻👍🏻
I don't know Rudy - I got dragged into a few 'Amway' meetings that sounded exactly like what you are saying here. 'Eventually all the negative people will leave and you will be left with a good group' was what a bunch of the speakers mentioned. I guess you persevere with one thing and you will find your own space and people.
U are correct in everything ur sayin my man,ur smarter then the average bear my man,bought case of wild of eldrain cuz new this set would blow up.luv mtg huge collector myself,dont hav nearly has much has u mr rudy but im getn there.feel the sameway u do. Thx for mtg vids

The Prof won't do the booster box game on one of Rudy's $89.00 shipped boxes, so here's Rudy version. The video is 58 mins. Oh, this is going to be good.
I still don't get the basic business model that you are running if you are actually losing $1-3 per box sold (which sounds accurate to me). Does the bottom line then actually come from the Patreon or am I missing something?
RUclips revenue, patreon, using fastfood apps for reward points, etc. it all adds up. Also the payout from holding scarlet/violet pokemon will be his retirement
If you've watched a lot of his videos, you'll hear he owns rental properties, stocks, bonds, crypto, oil paintings, other collectibles, tcg is one of these many things. Rudy is an old school investor
I've been watching white board videos in the back round for the last few days excited to see a new one Rudy I know you don't have time to make them often and don't read to read these comments but if you ever happen to see this plz keep these coming
@17:11 Putting "chuck norris making sushi on the back of whatever" into AI image generation programs have been a real gem if everyone wants a great laugh.
Thank you so much for these amazing video and lesson Rudy,this is pure GOLD Here since the end of 2018 staying the course hard,month after month alwais listening and LEARNING thanks Taco king please never stop
I love the grounded reality of this channel!! Retirement took a toll on my finances, but with my involvement in the digital market, $15,000 weekly returns has been life changing AWESOME GOD ❤️
I just withdrew my profits a week ago, it was so shocking when I withdrew $32,450 knowing I invested $7,000, I wish I could reinvest but too much bills 23.........
Every point that the purple line is below the blue line it was a bad financial decision to be a patreon member to Rudy if your sole goal is cardboard investing. It has been true for years at this point and likely isn't worthwhile to be a patreon member unless you enjoy Rudy's rants and want to support him as a content creator.
So what are the best type of boxes to buy now going forward? The collectors booster box? Same thing with Pokemon booster boxes? Buy a case and hold for 3-5 years? Buy the cheap draft boosters since they’re not going to be made anymore & they got plenty of demand?
@joeymak2000 Collector booster boxes for MTG and normal booster boxes for pokemon. Buy the sets people actually care about. (Fallout, LOTR, Kamigawa, for pokemon it'll be sets with Charizards in them.)
@@cccop0 there’s a part where he’s talking about draft boosters, the ones under $90. What’s the difference between set & draft boosters on those? Draft better than set? & going forward it’s only collector vs play booster? I’m pretty decent with Pokemon!
@@joeymak2000 draft boosters are stripped down booster boxes that contain more cards per pack but they won't have foils so they age worse. Out of the three, draft, set, and collector, collector sets definitely age the best because they have a higher amount of rares and mythics which is what collectors will be looking for in old sets when they purchase them in the future. My favorite example is Kamigawa Neon Dynstay which was released in 2022, look at the price trends across the three different types of booster boxes over the past 2 years and you'll see what I mean.
I know it is a business but most companies want to have a good repore with their customers and want to back up their product. Hasbro / Wizards does not care about the distributors, LGS, and the players. They charge extremely high prices while giving you cheap quality cards and they reprint good cards where a lot of them tank in price. Wizards is slowly ruining the collectability of a lot of cards. This year Wizards has constantly raises their prices. If something is wrong with their product, they say "Deal with it." Players need to wake up and smell the coffee. Our group of 11 people may buy some precons but we stopped buying cases of sealed boxes. We will just use the cards we already have. Magic is a great game but it's a shame the way Hasbro / Wizards treats their customers. Sure we love a lot of their products but we stopped paying these ridiculous prices. Thank you for the video Rudy.
As a LGS owner, I have enjoyed majority of Rudy’s takes and have never really understood all the other LGS owners who hate on Rudy, it is hilarious to me listening to these last couple video of him finally saying everything everything us Brick and Mortsr owners all have been saying about bottomfeeder “customers” and at the same time getting to watch in real time all of those people realizing that Rudy is in business to make money, isn’t going to give away free shit, and isn’t on the same page as them. The idea of firing customers is so outlandish to those who just have no real experience as an owner of a business.
MTG to Yugioh comparisons feel so right. Last three years of Yugioh has done nothing but still be under. MTG minus these last few collectors same…only thing I have that got any steam was Phyrexia compleat bundles. Strictly buying Pokemon now
I found your channel during the Corona Spacegodzilla hype because I wanted to invest in that. Since then I've been investing in sealed Pokémon and ETFs. Thank you, Rudy, you changed my perspective on money and investing for the better!
I have see some many creators that I didn't know enjoyed magic, doing box openings, playing the game. Had an OF model I follow just mention MTG, and she posted a SS of he inbox with everybody talking about magic. With smaller print runs and the new faces, the only thing missing here is a God bless America playing while these bearish Timmy's get ran over by the bull.
I see dry erase board and I click.
Big same. Even if the video doesn't start until @2:30
Same!
Best content. Come for the whiteboard, stay for the visor
Legend
Right?? The pink visor just amps up the excitement.
Magic cards go down, Ruddy gets free magic cards
Magic cards go up, Ruddy gets free youtube videos
Best trade(ing card) deal in the history of trade deals
They got jealous of the success of their own products LOL that just sounds f****** stupid
A video about inventory bloat and over printing, with the familiar sight of stacked boxes of Fallen Empires behind you is a nice touch 😁
Id argue pokemon may be the most devastatingly powerful pop culture ip of all time. Pokemon itself is a black swan.
12:22 - 12:31 Rudy's most important advise of all time!
Rudy's optimistic attitude is awesome
I'm staying the course by buying the S&P blindly and 1 case of FAB per release and then hodling forever.
I open some, keep some.
Great video! Love these long form insight into the industry videos.
Holy... Shit... Dry erase board... And a... Uh... Uhhhh... Pink visor?! .... It's absolutely glorious! This is Rudy's... "Magnum," Zoolander moment.
Rudy reminds me of The Cheshire Cat from Alice & Wonderland 😂

@@inasuma8180”from” works just fine if you’re trying to critique my grammar.
@@inasuma8180 my bad you are right I thought you meant that I couldn’t say “from” referring to the cat being from wonderland lol 😂
I can see that too
Lmfaooo @@HitItFromTheBack47
I like Rudy, he's the closest i can get to know what all timmys are thinking, doing, and buying.
Good to see another whiteboard video! Pink-visor Rudy tells it like it is👍
I would love a deeper dive into Pokemon, thank you Rudy.
It's boring. It goes up because children and man children love to collect shiny card board and don't even play the game.
@beckeliasson8465 well the game is ass
@@beckeliasson8465 Magic is pokémon's down syndrome cousin that no one takes seriously
As someone who's brand new to Magic, this was very informational thank you sir!

Rudy, where do you see the range for Set boosters going forward? Closer to Play booster range?
How are you able to seel them for less then msrp?
"Really cool" and informative "hot take" into the daily Rudy grind. Thank you good sir for your thought processes and knowledge 😂🎉
Where does the flushed out product ends up into?

I stayed the course with metazoo but we hit like ten icebergs and we out of lifeboats.
You live and you learn thought MetaZoo was dead on arrival imo.
I love this kind of video not very long and meaningful. Keep it up
Rudy we don’t care if your video is 2 hours long we all will watch it ❤

Got 5 Boxes of War of the Spark, awaiting the day hehe
Watching this in Nov, very interesting

In this house we stay the course 😤
Doge coin is all i can think about going to 89.00 jk 😂 nah but really tho i backed up the truck doge coin 😂😂

Nobody could predict that a company would want to eat the golden goose.
Lord knows how many cases I would have picked up if I had gotten into this hobby a year ago.

I'm favoured, $60K every week! I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless America....
If I may ask how you manage to earn so much..., what are your strategies??
Since meeting Expert Sarah, I now agree that with an expert managing your portfolio, the rate of profit is high, with less risk.
I just withdrew my profits a week ago, it was so shocking when I withdrew $32,450 knowing I invested $7,000, I wish I could reinvest but too much bills 23.........
AS!! I know it's possible, I'd appreciate it if you showed me how to do it.

This reminds me of when coworkers invited me out for a Taco Bell lunch and tried to pitch Amway.
Did they tell you that it wasn't a pyramid scheme or that it's a multilevel marketing company and you arrived at the best possible time?

Its a good price, but you raised your price to $89 around mid way through 2023. About 2 years after I stepped away from MtG in favor of FaB
❤❤❤
RUclips + TacoBell + Magic = Rudy's business model
Great video.
Hasbro consistently acts like a private equity company in its plunder of WoTC.
I was GONNA be a patron but I am from Canada so WHATEVER....
Praise thee, Syr Rudy of Basement!
I know these longer videos don't perform as well, but I always appreciate your insights. Thanks!
tldr; managing the brand, is the brand
Yay I like long videos :)
If you say 79 and 89 a few more times you can make a mid 90's taco jingle.
Honestly one of the best videos in a while. I know retention is shit but I love em
GME taught me to buy the dip. The people who left the Patreon misunderstood, and I'm glad because now I have one of their spots. 🤣
151 Pokemon set. Is it a bubble 1 reprint away from collapse or will it become the next expensive set?
Well they’ve announced the reprint, so let’s see 😅
I cant beleive you still have 369k subs! Greatest fan club ever!!❤
You're prices are lower than my LGS...by a lot unfortunately. I'm a newer Patron and hope to have some spare capital to purchase some boxes soon!
If all the Timmies, normies and plebs would have bought Bitcoin nine years ago... Well, they'd be rich!
Rudy I appreciate your transparency and message
Rudy give us the glizzy
Need more Rudy content like this !!! Bravo
