as someone who started collecting a couple months ago and has yet to invest in hobby packs or boxes, these are always so much fun to watch like maybe my money isn’t going to waste with retail lol
Buying packs of either is not a great use of money when it comes to collecting. The odds are heavily stacked against you. But if you love opening packs like I do, you're just paying for the entertainment of opening packs.
Just found your channel after going through all my cards from when I was a kid. Thanks for the memories of ripping packs. I prob have a few thousand cards from the mid 90s. Not even sure where to begin to see what this things are worth. Might see if I can get back into it again with my kids now they are about the same age as when I first started collecting.
Retail was definitely the winner in this battle and I hope to see a Kobe Power Surge grace the channel soon! I always look forward to Monday, Wednesday, and Friday because of your videos.
I hope they bring back illusions sometime. It was one of my favorite low price sets just because the acetates were soo cool and even the base I thought put sets like court kings to shame.
Wow, that was a poor showing for hobby, but you had some really nice rookie parallels from retail, so that gets the easy W. I think those Tip Off parallels are pretty SP, but it doesn’t look like they sell for a ton though. Might be able to move that to a CP3 collector!
Yeah, I've only ever seen two of those Tip Off parallels, but I didn't even bother looking up the value, because I just assumed no one cared about those. 😄
I like it. I have yet to play the game though. I just can't get myself to break the seal on it. And I guess there's a 2024 version of the board game as well.
Just found your channel, and have been enjoying the videos! Keep up the good content! However, if I could offer the slightest bit of criticism… Please refrain from constantly swiping your pointer finger across the face of the cards. We understand that you are swiping at minute particles on the card, but it is moderately annoying.
@@SageTheCollector Again, not trying to be outlandish… It just almost seems that you have a nervous tick, or something comparable. In the grand scheme of things, it is no biggie, they’re your videos. And, as mentioned, they’re entertaining.
@@bkscollections2491 It is slightly outlandish. But it's certainly not a nervous tick. I've done over 500 of these videos; I'm pretty chill when I do them. Apparently my finger just sees card dust and has to neutralize it. My finger's a terminator. I think the solution is that Panini needs to stop making packs with so much card dust in them. 😉
nice packs, i love this! thanks for opening so many packs! that was sweet!
Thanks for watching! 🤛🏻

That'll be super fun to go back and go through those cards! When I did the same thing 5 years ago, I found a few Kobe Bryant rookies!
Always fun to watch these types of episodes, thanks for making them. 😊
🤛🏻
Philippines watch ur unpack cards here . Happy to watch all ur hits
Thanks for watching! 🙌🏻 🇵🇭
No problem sir . I'm just interested on watching opening pack and box xD🎉🎉🎉

Man, pulling a Kobe Power Surge would be awesome! And very nice use of the Zach emoji. 😁
Nice rip!! Scottie Barnes silver Prizm rookie was a sweet pull! He’s having an excellent bounce back season!
Yeah, he's definitely over his sophomore slump! 💪🏻
Man all those Scotties!I PC him being from Toronto.Great rip Sage!
I might have to start a PC at this rate! 😁
Where did you find monopoly pre order?
Target.com
Retail with the Win! Nice rips Sage. That Bucks/Spurs game was a lot of fun!
Yes it was! I yelled out loud a few times at the end. That Wemby block on Giannis: 😮
Nice rip Sage! Love your videos!
I believe retail wins this time!
Thanks for all the great content!
Thanks, Franky! 🙌🏻
I hope they bring back illusions sometime. It was one of my favorite low price sets just because the acetates were soo cool and even the base I thought put sets like court kings to shame.
Yeah, I have no idea why they stopped making it. I loved it.

Nice silver Scottie 🔥, who do you reckons the main rookie to get now from this class? Still cade?
It might end up being Barnes, but I think it's currently still Cade w/ the most Hobby love. I think the Top 5 for the 2021 class are all solid.
I love. Curry and Ja are u selling
New sub, not that much into NBA but you made it so amazing
Thanks! And thanks for subbing! 🙌🏻
Loved the vid it’s always fun to compare packs 🔥its my favorite series you do
🤛🏻
Whats the most I should pay for a PSA 8 Giannis rookie
Depends on which card. Just search for the card on eBay, and then click Sold Items. That'll give you an idea of what it's worth.
Thanks
I don’t know why, but I love the monopoly set. Excited they’re doing it again.
I like it. I have yet to play the game though. I just can't get myself to break the seal on it. And I guess there's a 2024 version of the board game as well.
@@SageTheCollector I have not played the game either, get too distracted with the cards. I probably should play it with the kids…but maybe nah
Nice video bro. PSA is currently running a $15 special, any sports card from 93 to 2023 so sending that franz Wagner in is worth it.
Yeah. I'll be sending out some cards this weekend for sure. 👍🏻
putting a chet rookie with base?
It was only a Pinnacle Chet rookie
Hey def retail. It felt like a Scottie Barnes break today
Scottie definitely saved the day!
when u dropped that illusions hobby pack u scared me so bad
All's good. It was a light fumble. 😉
WHOMP WHOMP
Indeed
Let's go Sage!
Pffff that was though one for hobby, retail took that one for sure!
Rrrrrrrrrrrrough!
what do you think of nba hoops?
I like it
I think tip off from aficionado is an ssp
Yeah, they're definitely not common. I've only ever seen two of them ever.
I'm surprised to retail take the dub. I was hoping you would pull something cool out of aficionado.
Yeah, I'm still holding out hope I'll pull something big out of Aficionado.
Congrats to retail this week
very cool man
Thanks!
Do u like ufc cards?
And who’s your favorite fighter
@@williamlum4093 he pretty much only rips basketball
I used to watch UFC a lot back in the early days, but I haven't watched in a while.
People that aren’t 9 or older be eating the cards lol
🤷🏼♂️😄
Scottie Barnes saved the day.
Indeed!
Retail for the win
Retail actually won 😂
I love the content and your appreciation for the sport, but the state of basketball cards the way they are right now is absolutely abysmal.
I don't know about it being that bad, but at least we're seeing prices come way down on 1- or 2-year-old sealed wax. So there is a silver lining.

Who is we? Everyone who watches him doesn’t really mind he’s just trying to make sure the card isn’t damaged

@@SageTheCollector Truth to that! Take care!
a year? jesus clean your area more frequently
A year might have been a slight exaggeration 😉
Geez..i cant believe you still here....and same gray sweater..
Ha. Where'd you think I'd be? I'm no quitter! And I own several of the same hoodies, so it may not be the same shirt. 😁
That's a crap ton of packs!
🫸😮🫷
It was a lot of packs!
