Nice tips bro. Good luck on your poke journey? Btw I noticed your playmat, you collect yugioh too?

[@ItsBeenVish]

Thanks a lot!! I actually sold my Yugioh ‘collection’ but I used to play a bit at locals before it got too expensive to keep up with the meta staples! I’ll always love the show tho 😅

I realized i dont care for keeping sealed product, i dont care to buy singles or complete sets... i just enjoy ripping packs and i enjoy the cool art!

[@ItsBeenVish]

Sometimes it really gets like that! I’m starting to only keep what I really want so I have a smaller more tailored collection. But I did get to enjoy all eras of starting out as a collector which is really important I think!

@@ItsBeenVish yeah I have a toploader binder for my favorites and best cards, with some on display on shelves. The rest of the not so desirable hits are in normal binders

[@raymondkuczewski6499]

very cool tips and thanks for the tip and i 1000% agree on the cases/binder protections

[@ItsBeenVish]

Thanks a lot for the support! 100% keep your cards safe - what’s a little bit extra money to protect your expensive investment?

Good video man! It's a very interesting idea for a video that I can definitely go into myself in time as I'm in a similar situation as you, I believe🙂

[@ItsBeenVish]

Would love to see your take on it!! Thanks a lot 😅

I would recommend using the blue painters tape instead of Scotch tape. Scotch tape is a pain in the ass to remove and rips into many pieces when you try to remove a card from a top loader. Painters tape is very reliable and 99 percent of the time rips off in one piece.

[@ItsBeenVish]

Tbh I hate tape on top loaders 😅 I think it was just one that was sent to me when buying a card online. But thanks for the advice I’ll keep that in mind

*I found 12 of those Mewtwo Movie Collection boxes for $35 each. I really wish I had grabbed more than 4.*

[@ItsBeenVish]

Oh man tell me about it! The packs are so cool and the promo alone is a nice collection piece. Thanks for the support 😄
