I work for my local gas company as a second shift emergency truck. Basically handing natural gas leaks and CO calls and some other stuff. Def saved up for the channel though and put in alot of OT, as well as selling good cards on the side to keep it going!
I bought a series 2 hobby box and am going through them as I’m typing this. I’ve never bought any cards before and I’m trying to learn what to look out for. I’m also from western NY! Thanks for videos good luck on your pulls!
Thanks for the reply and the transparency. I hope the channel can fund the channel soon for you. Good on you to be smart to save up. It’s gotta be really cool to have the channel and to be able to rip so many packs. You have gotten some good hits recently. I have a different channel. I am a full time teacher and have another side hustle. So I get the grind. If only YT paid more than it does. But my YT income goes mostly to the family but the small percentage I allow for myself goes all to cards!
@@westernnycards you may not believe it but you will get there and sooner than I did. I took me awhile to find my niche on YT. It took us almost five years to get to 100k. You have already passed the biggest hurdle, 1,000. It’s so deflating trying to get there. I can see you hitting 100k in less than 2 years. You’re just as good as Stryker and he flew there once he got to 40k
My favorite Retail box I ever opened was one of 22 update, what was a Bonanza. I pulled a hella low numbered Red color match Major League Materials Relic Auto of Shohei. The neighbors heard me whoop lol
Cool relic hit! I really like those black parallels. They’re hard to gem but look great. The new cobalt blue parallel looks great too. Thanks for sharing!
I got one of those relic cards out of a mega box of Series 2. It is a thick card, but it is really cool that it explains what game the base was used in. Another great video, my friend.
What a hit !!! Just getting into cards in general. Your videos have been really helpful. Orange crackle is the rarest I’ve pulled so far. I can’t imagine an x/50 relic. Keep the pulls coming! Hi from Lewiston, NY. (Luckily far enough that I’m not taking your boxes). Really curious of your thoughts on grading cards and how you store your collection when it outgrows the shoe box. Thanks !!!
What’s up Alex! Love having WNY people on the channel! I don’t really do the whole grading thing, never got into it. And I’m old school! I store in binders 😂
I was pleasantly surprised with my retail display s2, got a Golden Mirror. Still chasing any of those SP rookies. May try another of those, seems worth the difference over a Mega. Though, I love the 8 foilboards per Mega (or 4 and 4, since the All Star set is a different set).
Ok got a decent blaster series 2 cardinals team camp /25, Matt liberatore gold /2024 and Statue of Liberty card, junior caminero royal blue, PCA 1989, plus bunch of 2 dollar cards. Did I also win a profit challenge? I got 15% off on target so 21.25 plus tax
Wow dude, what a relic!!! 🔥🔥 That is sick!! The amount of Yanks you pull though is maddening! Lol My daughter is laughing at me as I yell at the TV haha.... I swear, out of the last 3 or so series 2 hangers, I've gotten like 2, maybe 3 yankees, and they are, less than desirable 😂😂 Nice rip though, that was super fun!!
I’m a huge Yankees fan and I feel like I hate them more and more these days as they regress back to the pack lol lol but in reality, I love them but this is the same frustrating stuff that has happened in Boone’s entire tenure as manager
You made me open cards. I blame you. Worst two Chrome Anniversary blasters ever, but the third gave me a sweet /50 Al Kaline. I'll say this, last pack I saw the card from the bottom SLOWLY. Orange border /25 ROOKIE ORIOLE ... I'm sweating as if this thing is Gunnar, it's a $600 card. DL Hall. Series 2 was decent. I'll make my money back. Nothing huge, but good color on some rookies. Back to no opening for at least a few days. Still very hurt from the cases. (Some dude countered me at $20 for that Outman auto out of 25, so I nicely told him to go away and took the card down for when Outman is raking again)
@@westernnycards gotcha. It’s not to be judgmental but just curiosity. I can’t afford to rip all that much so really enjoy and appreciate these videos.
I have kind of a personal question for you. I’m curious what your day job is. It’s gotta be expensive to open all of these packs even as a collector.

I’m hoping it grows a lot! You have an insane amount of subs!! I’d love to get to that point

That would be amazing! I have embraced the grind and I really wanna get there. I truly love this gig!
Great relic hit! Yeah... happy they are making them more desirable. I collect Kwan RCs. .. happy I made that choice a couple years back. Great video!
Kwan is killing it!!!
My favorite Retail box I ever opened was one of 22 update, what was a Bonanza. I pulled a hella low numbered Red color match Major League Materials Relic Auto of Shohei. The neighbors heard me whoop lol
Holy cow!!! I’m beyond jealous lol
I pulled the freddie Freeman rounding the base relic.. was a cool pull for sure
I pulled the Rizzo one of them. Being a Yankees fan it's one of my favorite relics and my only cleat relic.
Sick!!
Geez!! That Rizzo is awesome. Such a good player. He's a big name here in Chicago. In NY he kinda fades into the background.
Cool relic hit! I really like those black parallels. They’re hard to gem but look great. The new cobalt blue parallel looks great too. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Tim!! Def very hard to grade those but super sharp looking

Such a cool card! Also I emailed you back about your order! If you don’t see it in your inbox, it might be in the junk folder buddy!
The base hit is Cool! I didn't know that they had that. I always thought it was just patches. If they did a players Glove, That would be awesome.
I think they do gloves sometimes too but I can’t remember what set
Great relic. I haven’t seen a base relic before. Congrats!
Thanks !!

I appreciate the link you have for us finishing a collection by going through your inventory.
No problem!!

I’m excited to try megas!
Thanks for the video! That was an impressive relic card to be found in retail.
Such a cool pull!!
That rip brought that nice drip!
I never even knew that relic series existed. Sweeeeet

I’d say you def did amazing! Camo is a tough pull and a Caminero parallel is sick
Very cool relic!! Also really like that Abrams black parallel, great video once again!😊
Thanks Angie!! Now I want all the dirty base relics lol
That base relic is a special one! Nice hit! I saw Brett from Step in the Box pull one of those too. I pulled my first Independents Day yesterday!
Sweet who did ya get??
@@westernnycards Christian Vazquez... No bueno 😂
The best Independence Day border design to date. My favorite parallel this year . Was lucky enough to get a bo bichette this year
Dude that’s awesome!!
@westernnycards what are the different codes on the back, like the last 3 tells you if it's base, sp and spp. Etc
Can you refresh my mind on them?
Sorry man I do not know those codes off the top of my head! Maybe the checklist on becketts website has that info?
Pulled a Juan Soto All Star 89 Gold numbered to 50, out of a Monster Box from Walmart!!!
Sick!! Congrats!
I think it's a cleat relic from the bottom of his shoe not one of the bases. I got that same card but it wasn't numbered.
Oh really?? I didn’t know that!
Awesome hit👍 I actually hit a Andruw Jones major league material auto numbered to 25 out of a monster box!!
Sick!! One of the best defensive players ever
The score should be on the bottom left on front of card. On the rizzo
So cool! Love that they put that amount of detail into a retail product. Now they need to do that for the rest of them lol.
That’s like a dream come true for me lol
awesome pull, that would be an awesome idea (pull the box score) thanks for the content once again!
Thanks bro!
That relic is so cool. That'd be sitting with my PC cards forever. I wished it wasn't Anthony Rizzo, but is there a good Yankee?
Lol man just give me judge on that card and I’m so much happier 😂
@@westernnycards Yeah, I'm thinking about it and I could live with Soto or Judge. (Dear Yankees, let Juan become a free agent)
Jeez I forgot about Soto until you said it 😂
@@westernnycards You won't when he's hanging dingers on your boys wearing red. 😁😁
@@westernnycards Castellanos for a signed pair of Lindor spikes. Deal?
How much do you want for the vintage stock Tovar
Hey there! I’m always open to offers on wnycards.com
The curse of being a big enough name to have Topps make a relic for you, but not big enough that people get excited about you being on that relic...
I wonder why they chose him for it? Maybe he hit a bomb that game? Or maybe it’s 1st base where he was stepping all day lol
I wamt that volpe relic he pulled lol
You won the comment section.
@@westernnycards Rizzo went 1/4 and scored a run on a DJ LeMahieu home run that cut the Mets lead to 5-3
Got a Father's Day Seiya Suzuki in the same box
Went to target a bought 4 hangers of topps 24 series 2 and a blaster. Going to open while watching this lol
Let’s go! Good luck!!
I wish more relics gave details like that instead of generic game used/player worn, great video
Exactly!! That’s why I love it so much!

You know what the secret is? You have to hate the Yankees and then it happens lol

I’d email them!
Now I’m addicted to your videos, bro
Thanks man! Appreciate that
Great base card
Super cool!!!
I’m totally curious how you can afford to open up so much wax.
I saved and saved and saved to make this channel! Lots of OT lol plus I also sell a lot of cards to keep the ship sailing
@@westernnycards gotcha. It’s not to be judgmental but just curiosity. I can’t afford to rip all that much so really enjoy and appreciate these videos.
