A card valued at $3 doesn't mean $3 will go to your pocket. You have to factor in additional costs, often eBay seller fees approx 10% and 35p per item plus cost of postage and packaging too. So there is no profit when this is factored in
I really love this set! trully underrated, with this price, opening it will likely be profit. I like that you are venturing into japanese! we need more japanese content from you from time to time.
Great video btw, and you should include the value of holo and reverse holo next time since those are sought after especially for those who are completing the set.
Opened one box of shiny ex in japan and got the charizard SAR first pack. It was only my second day there lol. Card will stay with me for ever what an amazing memory
I was thinking the same thing PokeJace. I just got 5 boxes to open. But where are you able to get them for 25 a pop? Hook a brother up with some packs n a good vendor that hooks up boxes at 25$ a pop 😊
you most certainly did not break even or make profit, so why miss inform people and give people prices from america when you’re an english streamer? why not take actual prices from the current market? here are your ‘hits’ taken from UK cardmarket lows (when possible) or cheapest european listings plus postage (which is roughly what you’d be able to sell for) Quaquaval ex £0.05 Smoliv £1.35 Ting-Lu £0.20 Chien-Pao ex £0.20 Toedscruel ex £0.10 Oricorio £1 Mew EX £0.41 Squawkabilly ex £0.13 Great Tusk ex £0.02 Judge £0.86 Wigglytuff EX £2 Espathra ex £0.05 Pawmo £2 Chi-yu EX £0.10 £8.47 - 5% fees = £8.05 as someone with 11,000 subscribers, i think you should be taking better care and not making people think they can ‘make profit’ from pokemon boxes and then not even give prices from the correct market
I use the US market as 80% of my audience is from US. If I used GBP for pricing I would use Ebay sold listing's. The prices you have put are very low for example nobody is selling an EX for £0.02 when they are selling for at least £1 or more on Ebay. Prices will always vary on different places and times. At the recording of the video, the card prices where correct for the US market from sales data.
‘nobody is selling an EX for £0.02’ riccardodamian from the UK currently has one listed for £0.02 at the time of writing this and there’s another 2 sellers from the UK with the same card for under 10p, you’ve titled a video TRY THIS, like you’re giving financial advice, like opening pokemon packs is profitable, the set has tanked in price for sealed boxes and the singles have followed, you give financial advice on sealed stuff which is fair enough, you can’t go wrong, buy english booster boxes, put them away for 3-5 years make money, fair enough, but then as someone who is giving financial advice trying to help people then in turn, you create a video titled TRY THIS, make money from opening boxes, just no, it’s straight up gambling, if people want to open packs for fun, adrenaline, or collecting then fair enough, it is a hobby at the end of the day, but as someone who basis their videos around trying to help people make money, opening boxes to do so is not the way forward & as someone with a lot of followers looking at you for guidance this is what you should be helping them with real data, real market prices, rather than an EX having 1 sale for £1 in over a month & basing your ‘data’ of this

In the second box, first pack, was the Arven shiny? Around $8/9 if it was.
With my pack luck, my worry would be getting only “error” boxes with no secret rares.
Ahhhh but shiny treasure is different. Buy one! Buy 5.
Breaking even when you open a booster box is impressive actually. Especially for a set that’s been out for this long.
I need to get myself a box or two of this, can’t complain with the price.
$25/box? Where are you seeing that? Cheapest I see on ebay in the US is $38.
I have them in my tik tok cart for $26 rn
Tik Tok with 30% off coupon. I have like 5 at $25 each
Hey nice video :) can you tell me what site you use to check the value of a card ?
Opened one box of shiny ex in japan and got the charizard SAR first pack. It was only my second day there lol. Card will stay with me for ever what an amazing memory
love the videos man now i want to try this for my self!
I hit the bubble mew on my second box and on the first box my wife pulled a god pack. This set rocks especially at this price
I like this set better than shining fates, pulled that bubble mew, super cool card!
The Mew was the SAR of the box-Japanese sets consider full arts as secretes…
What website is being used to show previous sales??
been thinking about getting these myself
These are my thoughts exactly. Why pay more for PF?
The mew was your secret rare on the 2nd box
Your first box was actually an error box with two secret rares
Watching you open this set makes me want to open it lol.
I was thinking the same thing PokeJace. I just got 5 boxes to open. But where are you able to get them for 25 a pop? Hook a brother up with some packs n a good vendor that hooks up boxes at 25$ a pop 😊
P.s. What site do you use to look up your prices? It looks way better then tcg n the others I've been using
I pulled a shiny treasure god pack on stream a week ago or so
